My '75 2.0 idles fast when hot.
I have replaced all the hoses and injector seals, adjusted the timing, done all the tune-up stuff, etc. I suspect there may be an air leak, but I'm running out of places to find it. The only place I haven't refurbished yet is around the plenum. I want to take that out next, clean it up, paint the intake tubes, replace any gaskets/seals, etc. But I haven't been there yet, so I'm hoping for some input - photos of the disassembled parts would be nice. Throttle-body gaskets, the short pieces of hose that connect/seal the intake tubes to plenum (what do you call those???).... what else do I need? Anything tips before I dig in? |

The plenum isn't a difficult task, just a couple bolts/screws, twisting yer haid the right contorsionists position with light directed properly (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) and feeling yer way with the right sized wrench or screwdriver. I did it with the same intensions. I was hoping to find a leak but din't. The TB gasket I'm relativly certain is NLA. I used some stuff from a tube that dried but could peel off when necessary. Sealed good. There's a photo & drawing with the proper sizes of hose for connecting all vacuum hoses. A search for vacuum hoses should bring it up. Also, ditto what Mark said. Bypass that AAR. It might be open, even a little bit! Good luck with yers... I gave up the chase (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) .....b |
