Re: [T3] partial fuel delivery



    Thanks for the help with my hard start, "missing".  I checked for a vacuum
leaks, checked valve adjustment w/o anything unusual.  However I did pull the
idle jet and found black crap on it, so I disassembled the jet/cut-off and
cleaned it.  That night the car still started/ran crappy, but the next morning,
it started and ran w/o touching the gas (except setting the choke beforehand).
It purred like a kitten, me too.  I guess the idle jet needed an overnight to
work-out the crap stuck in there...?
    I'm going to add a fuel filter *after* the fuel pump next, don't know what
that crap was.
