RE: Fuel Injector Question...very long


>some paragraphs in your posts.

Sorry it just poured out ;-)

>The timing for a 72 is UNIQUE.

I followed the Bentley.  But without the ability to get the idle above 800,
it really makes it difficult.

>Pulling out the injectors and watching the spray pattern

When the injectors fire the pattern is good, the problem is getting them to
fire consistantly.

>tighten up the electrical connections to the injectors

This seems like the very first step I should take,  this was also suggested
by Robb who had a similar problem

>It's not the filler neck 

I ment the overflow hose, I just mentioned it to let you know I checked this
area of the fuel system

>Probably not. You probably just didn't get the drive dog engaged in the
drive gear properly. This is a rather common beginner's mistake, and one
that they would be unlikely to do.

I was not thinking they did the same thing, but when they readjusted the
drive gear, they said it took them about 6 hours and that It was 180 deg
off, they said it has never taken them so long to do this.  So could they
have positioned it wrong?

>Note again that the 72 timing proceedure, with the vacuum advance AND
retard is UNIQUE.

I think we have discussed this before, but let me check to make sure:
Bentley says to adjust idle, pull and plug the hoses, adjust idle again, set
timing to 5 BTDC. Reconnect hoses, adjust idle again.  Correct?

Thanks for advice,
Jason
