Hi,
I'm having some running isusses, I have recently switched back to injection ( had fireblade carbs that was done by the last owner) but it's now idleing high and when you try to rev it the revs drop off? I still have a mk1 dizzy on it, will it solve it if I switch back?
The afm is back on along with most of the induction kit. It is also running abit rich still.

Does any one have any pics or diagrams of then engine I.e where the pipes and plugs go so I can double check as most of it was a combination of using pics off google an gess work lol.
Cheers.

Not enough info.
Is your car mk1 or post mk2?
If your car is mk2 and after, it won't run as so many signal for ECU to work.

Hi,

Do you still have MAF and TPS?
How about fuel pressure?
Do you get check engine light comes on?

Good luck.

Cheers

Now dizzy, tps,afm and lambda all on an to be hounest I'm not sure if it better or worse ? It's still not right. I might burn it! Any ideas would really help. I got a work shop manual on disc just need a computer now lol ( I on the site now with phone) I have a new fuel reg an it set too 2.7bar which according to the autodata at my work is about right ( it say 2.5 to 2.7 ) so the fuel side of things looks to be ok. As for the air the breather pipe from the rocker is not on the induction pipe as I don't have the right one for the car and the one off the intake is not connected ether but on other cars they don't seem to make tht much diff? please help

youv got to mod the chassis end of the arms for the scooby mod
there are parts on ebay you can use to make up an adjust arm kit, cheaper and easyer than getting some made up

I think they are called turn buckles, m12 you want, I think the bloke selling them is called mcmillin motorsport, something like that
Plus you will need left and right handed rodends and lock nuts from the same place

Oh ok thanks. So far on the running side of things the inlet mani is back off and is being cleaned out 2day (not tht much to clean out of it but still good to check) an new gasket all the way round it. Got to get some pipeing and joins. Can anyone tell me where the water feed comes from to the isc? I know it from the head somewhere but most of the work I'm doin is in the dark with a crap lead lamp off a flat ka battery lol, so a general direction would be grate thanks

An thanks dominator I'll have a look at them.
