After spending hours reading through all the related posts on this great forum I decided it was time to ask for some desperately needed help.
The car is a 1980 model but was built mid 1979 so its pre oxygen sensor 930/09 engine plus it has a two in/out SS exhaust with no cat. Fuel system is standard CIS setup. The car is mostly stripped out for track use. I purchased the car back in Dec 19, previously had sat for 4.5 years without being run. Previous owner started it the day before I collected and apart from the usual white smoke it ran and was driven on to the transporter. But rapidly went downhill after that, I put this down to the fact that the old fuel clogged everything in the fuel system. I have now meticulously gone through everything that you would expect could need attention, this included: Fuel Tank out cleaned, all new fittings and pipes New fuel pump + relay New fuel filter New FD and WUR provided by https://www.kmipetrolinjection.co.uk New fuel lines Air flow sensor cleaned and check for correct setup Air box was blown and has been repaired and pressure tested All new rubber runner connection tubes New injectors, injector inserts and seals AAR cleaned and tested and ok AAV replaced Deceleration valve tested ok Cold start valve tested ok Ignition New Classic retrofit CDI box New plugs New Beru leads New distributor cap/rotor Other New voltage reg New alternator Oil changed Tappets adjusted So as you can see a lot has been changed. Current measurements: System pressure 4.9bar Control pressure warm with vac on - 3.2bar, this is slightly below spec however I sent the WUR back to https://www.kmipetrolinjection.co.uk to be checked and they assure me that it is in spec and that my gauge is reading slightly low. Cylinder compression (PSI read with air temp at 12deg and engine not fully warm) 1 - 125, 2 - 120, 3 - 122, 4 - 123, 5 - 124, 6 - 122 - Although these are all similar they are a on the low side, could this be the issue? The car has covered 160k, a top end rebuild was done at 150k but this was in 2001 The car starts but is rough at idle, revs up ok but poor pickup, at higher rpm appears to run smoother but still sounds like its missing. Plugs foul up quickly with black soot suggesting she is very rich. Haven't changed the coil which looks like the original Bosch 0221 121 001, meter readings are correct for both coils. Mixture Set to base setting as per manual and attach CO meter CO meter says 5%, so slowly lean it out and CO comes down. As soon as we go below 4% she starts to backfire through the induction popping the pop-off valve. Here are some videos of the car running, just: https://youtu.be/UQ5PeCkOJiI https://youtu.be/ZI_ccbgEbH4 Thanks in advance for any help... |
