Have you used a timing light to verify that BOTH the vacuum and mechanical advances are working? Have you measured the charging system regulating voltage? (It should be above 14 V at the battery at med rpm with the engine warmed up.) > I noticed that when the ignition is turned on but > motor is not running that the #4 and #2 injectors fire > rapidly when teh gas lever on the intake manafold is > accelerated. Is this normal? This is almost correct and normal. The injector wires on one side of your engine are swapped. The Grey caps go to the rear. Once you get this corrected you should get #1 & 4 to trigger together and if you rotate the dist into a different position you will get #3 & 2 to do the same. I doubt if this has caused your symptoms, but I would straighten it out first. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
