When I first purchased my car 30+ years ago, I too was a bit lost with the fuel system. I purchased the Bosch "Mechanical Gasoline Fuel-Injection System with Lambda Closed-Loop Control" "K-Jetronic" Technical Instruction manual. It breaks down how the whole system works and and includes deep dives into every component. What I learned is just how simple (and genius) this system was for its day. Its a short read, 24 pages in all with lots of diagrams.
The ISBN on mine is: 1-85-226030-0

I did a quick search on Amazon and eBay, its obviously out of print and neither had it but there were others for L & KE Jetronic. Maybe post a WTB in the classifieds.

Once you understand the system, purchase a proper gauge test kit with the necessary fittings and you can diagnose issues.
