Fuel distributor Posted by Fogline [Email] (#1152) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Fogline) on Wed, 29 May 2013 17:53:20 In Reply to: Re: No, that's the fuel accumulator, SWEDECAR [Profile/Gallery] , Wed, 29 May 2013 11:53:08 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Hi again and thanks for the help.
So, I took the fuel lines off the injectors and as I suspected, no fuel when attempting to start engine. I had read about the little pump in the fuel distributor getting gummed up with the newer fuels, so i took the lines off that end and sprayed some parts cleaner in after siphoning off the little bit of fuel there. Then, I added some straight injector cleaner. I noticed one of the lines showed some corrosion (odd I thought as they appear to be brass). Waited five minutes and turned the car over with the lines still disconnected. Fuel was coming out then, so I reconnected and started it up. Running much smoother now than before. Still not sure if the injectors are not somewhat fouled, but at least I can move it now until I can get the chance to check and possibly replace those.
