I will be putting on new injectors this weekend. Offhand it sounds like you're running very rich, assuming your regular tune-up items are all in order as you say. When you have to floor it to start, all you're doing is opening the air intake all the way. And all those other symptoms point to a rich condition, too. You have a long list of new parts that you've put on. Are they all compatible with one another? All the FI parts on your 73 will need to be "E" D-Jet components. In particular, your ECU and pressure sensor need to match up. Make sure your pressure sensor is holding vacuum and that the hose is good. Test the resistances of the temp sensors and compare the values with Bentley. What is your system voltage when you're up and running? Any difference if you disconnect the cold start valve? -Mark Fuhriman ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
