Tony,

Good point! I’ll do the flow test tomorrow and report back.

This evening, I’ve been reading the K-Jetronic Workshop Service Manual that’s available over on Rennlist. It really is fascinating how these systems were engineered! I found the section concerning the flow test and the shims.

I did not remove the primary pressure valve on the fuel distributor. I took the CIS off the engine at the intake runners, but didn’t disassemble anything, except to change fuel lines. I took the CIS off to clean the engine and check out the devil’s triangle under the shroud. The CIS went back on the engine, exactly as it came off – well, to the best of my ability, anyway.

I dropped the engine to refresh the suspension rubber and the project grew from there. But there was no engine rebuild or work done, other than installing the SSI’s and adjusting the valves; with a dial gauge and my fancy new Stomski jig.

Thanks so much for your help!
