I got the engine started tonight. And as it was running it was missing bad as if though it was running on only 3 Cylinders. But as i take the RPM to around 3k it starts to run really smooth. I cant help but to think that i might have a Fualty injector that is having a hard time opening up untill there is some good pressure behind it. I havent had the chance to Check for spark at all the cylinders or do a spray check on the injectors. Im just trying to get a plan on were to start first.
Also the right bank has a exhust leak that is comming from the head to headers I can look up and see where it left a dark spot on the Copper caskets. Have any of you guys tried exhuast sealent (it is a copper color) to try and fix this. and yes i checked the torque on the studs. |

I finaly found my problem tonight. It was the fuel filter was cloged! I had the tank send out and cleaned and resealed, replaced all the fuel lines exect for the 2 hard lines that run through the chasis. I blew compressed air through the lines initaly to make sure that there was flow. I think that the old fuel was still attached to the walls of the line though. so it probaly got washed back to the tank to pass through the Fuel filter and got stoped as it should have. I feel pretty stuip over looking the fuel pressure. I took a while for me to remember that lack of fuel pressure will not viperize correctly when going through the injectors cuasing it to pool, and then not burning corectly. Hence my RICH miss.
QUOTE How close to Boring are ya? I live in Aloha right off of TV hwy. I still have some vaccum issues to work out. At idel i only have 5 hg of vaccum but at around 2k i get proper vaccum. i hope to find this issue shortly. With the pedal sticking: I purchessed a Pedal bushing set today. was planning on installing the bussings tonight before i got mixed up with the fuel filter. A co-worked sugested the bushing, saying that he remembered the 914's haing issues with them back when he still worked on the Porsche side of the shop. so right now i have the bushing's sitting in a oil bath leting the bushings asorb the oil before installation. But i will let you know what i come up with when i fix this problem |
