Still trying to figure out barely running 75 1.8 L jet blues
Looked at relay board and found missing rear window defogger fuse which is no big deal but also saw missing power supply relay fuse ???? Unknown what this is for. Then unknown yellow wire.  |

Timothy,
Car sat for a few years. After draining and replacing hose, lines, etc., car would start but then just die. Put in temp switch to manually switch on fuel pump. Installed inline fuel pressure guage, and getting good constant pressure from pump, with car off or running. Car would start and idle, but die out after going above about 2500 rpm. Then i broke a lousy ignition wire, so progressed stopped to order parts. Decided to replace ALL vacuum hoses, clean all contacts and grounds. Done. While going through the Bowlby fuel pump checklist.....and found a "connection" near pos battery that was not reliable (previous owner--apparently liked electrical tape). Easy fix. Ordered new cap, rotor, points, condenser, wires. They should come in tomorrow. I will PM you with results so as not to take this thread hostage. Jason |
