! The parts you need for the FI *are* out there.  Sometimes not real cheap 
right when you have an emergency need, but they're out there at reasonable 
prices if you just keep a casual eye out.

Stock Solex carbs work fine (I've owned a Solex-equiped Type 3), but a 
correctly maintained FI also runs fine (better, in my opinion).  I'd just 
hate to see somebody like you who has put so much effort into figuring out 
how the FI works to give up on it.

About a year and a half ago I was fighting my own FI battles on several 
fronts (hacked wiring harness, mis-wired injectors, sluggish pressure 
sensor, manifold leaks, bad ECU, 2 bad spare ECUs,..)  Many would have given 
up I guess, but in the end I am glad I got it straightened out.  Many people 
here on the list helped to make it possible, of course.  And I learned an 
awful lot in the process, without spending much at all.  Allow yourself the 
same benefits!
