RFC: New web page on D-Jet Idle Stability
 

I just put up a new page on troubleshooting D-Jetronic idle stability problems:

I haven't linked it to my main page yet, as I'm looking for feedback. Take a look at it and give me your inputs, thanks.

Looks good Brad!
I do like to set the timing to 32 BTDC though for a little more power. I also like deleting the vacuum retard but that's another story.

:) Very very good Brad. I have a few things to check now because you hit the nail on some things that are happening with mine. Not too extreme but, none the less, noticeable.
SmileWavy Thanks alot

Brad,

Just want to take this opportunity to thank you for your research and publication via your website of the results. I have visited it many times, and no doubt will visit many times more.

For anyone searching for answers about idling, drivability, or starting problems, your page is a "must read".

Regarding this new page, I think it is important to explain what you mean exactly when you say "All components correct for your application and in new or like-new condition". For people just starting out, this statement might be glossed over, with the thinking, "Yeah, I've got a ECU and an MPS, now let's get down to business...". I know you cover these different models and their compatability on your main page, but a newbie in a hurry for answers might not get there unless you point the way.

Just a thought, from someone who is figuring out his own ECU, MPS, and CHT compatability issues.

Ed, good call. I knew what he meant but a newbie wouldn't understand that the components need to have matching numbers unless he was as smart as Brad!
