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.  |

Coondog: I would concentrate on the ignition side. Plug wires, coil, condenser, and points/dwell. Consider installing a electronic ignition module. They hold the dwell perfect, and makes the car idle/run better IMO. Also check the advance is moving the breaker plate smoothly and the advance canister holds vacuum.
Jason, I'm curious now. What's your 914 doing or not doing? |

QUOTE(timothy_nd28 @ Jun 6 2016, 11:14 PM)  Consider installing a electronic ignition module. They hold the dwell perfect, and makes the car idle/run better IMO. Also check the advance is moving the breaker plate smoothly and the advance canister holds vacuum. Tim made the same suggestion to me for my L-jet 1911cc . HOT SPARK module link He also suggested that I buy a spare and keep it in the car. If you somehow leave the key on with the unit in a closed position for a long period, the unit can fail. As mentioned, it eliminates all the points/condenser tuning, etc... $50 well spent. We need to give TIM an award of some kind (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) |
