The PO had a single carb on when I bought my 74’ 1.8 914 and said he had uneven idle problems with the L-jet injection so he preceded to remove all components and box everything up. So now I’m feeling I want to reinstall the injection and put it back to stock. I have some mechanical ability and patience, though I was never able to get that gas smelling carb to run right. Was looking for someone I could pay for a few hours to kinda orientate me on the location of the box of injection parts I have and give me thoughts on what parts I might be missing and how difficult and expensive it will be to put everything back. I’m in Puyallup WA south hill area, Thanks In advance

Does look very complete, the dual relay is present. Sometimes the part most damaged during removal is the harness, old wiring don’t like getting wanked around. So maybe a new harness from @jeffbolsby is in order, not cheap but will no doubt ensure many years of trouble free performance.
It really isn’t a complicated system. Just be methodical with the replacing. David’s throttle body suggestion is also very good. Make sure your CHT sensor is good. Move your fuel pump to the front trunk. Have fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
