I have a 74 2.0 with the factory fuel injection. I have replaced plugs, cylinder head temp sensor, electronic ignition/ coil, air filter, relocated fuel pump, fuel filter. All done about 300 miles ago. Car ran great for that 300 miles but now I have an issue I didnt want to have someone else fix but after a month of chasing I am clueless (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I can cold start the car and it will idle great and stay idling great 9/10 times. When I start to drive the car its fine for 30 secs to 2-3 mins then it will start to chug out and begin to die out, I can blip the throttle hard and it will rev for a few more secs then it will just die out. After it dies it will try to start but just cranks but never fires. It will then begin to have a strong smell of fuel. If I let the car sit for roughly an hour or more I can go crank it up and drive for 30 secs or so then it dies out. I have tried unplugging injectors to see if one is stuck open but I dont think so bc it is not constant. Let me know if anyone has any ideas. Please help, Im frustrated beyond belief (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) I have messed with the ecu adjuster knob but does not help enough to fix issue. TIA for any help!

You should also be reading the Rennlist PBanders stuff on 914 D Jet.
Pretty much the definitive inventory. Sounds like trigger points and/or MPS. Not cheap, but both when working right, are instant fixes. I replaced my trigger points in 2009. My MPS works properly. Leakdown test is on PBanders writeups. Read it all several times. Good luck! John http://members.rennlist.com/pbanders/djetparts.htm http://members.rennlist.com/pbanders/ecu.htm |
