> I cant imagine my having a fuel injection problem that would take me more
than 20 minutes to fix... of course I know where everything is and what it
should do. I think people with cobbed injections systems should get in the
mind set of taking the time to get the correct set of matched parts rather
than wasting those hours of time trying to mess with parts that wont track
each other properly. The Bentley will tell exactly what should go with
what.
I got reminded today that my automatic chokes will never track
properly, or stay open as long as they should when the engine is off. and
YES.. unless I want to start the car 6 times I do need them here in NY. And
Brian... soon I should have time to start noodling with things again.. it is
running better with the advanced timing... I need to borrow a light with an
advance knob to tell exactly where I am.
