RE:Virgin (and his FI headache...)


Hi Donovan!
I really cant see the point in tossing out the FI for a set of carbs. Not if
your goal is to cut down on your troubleshooting....
Try to do a step-by-step fault elimination process on your existing D-jet
installation instead. It«s really not so complicated to understand these
FI-systems as it may seems. 

A type 4 freak named Tommy has a good website going. Especially the section
"Problems" - follow this link:
http://www.concentric.net/~tommymi/412/problems/index.htm,
- there is a great manual in there, about the D-jet and L-jet FI systems, to
print and carefully read.

Another good source for FI info and troubleshooting aid,  is "Kjell Nelin's
D-Jet Diagnostics" on this link: 
http://www.914fan.net/djet.html  
He is a Porsche 914 fan, but the D-jet system should  have the same
construction and behavior as on our beloved T3-s. Well worth reading!

After reading these two manuals, you should have a pretty good understanding
of your FI. Now get to the shop and buy a fuel pressure meter, a Ohm/voltage
multimeter, and a few feet of high quality fuel hose. 

Now your ready to "get at the bitch"!

Good luck!
