You need a Haynes manual! Please get one!
They aren't the greatest, but are a decent starting point for troubleshooting, specs, wiring, etc. _________________ Toofah King Bad

Well if any of the auto parts store had any I would have one but until the one I ordered comes in it would be great to get some stuff done also I'm not sure how much help it will be because a prevues owner of my car switched it to a fuel rail injection system!! :/ _________________ In love with my 1977 924 |

So someone converted it to electronic fuel injection?
Also $5.94 used + $3.99 shipping.

hmm.. it might be nice...
great if done correctly.. sounds like $1,000 to me..
but it may be a real hands on kind of thing to keep it in check.. may not be a simple thing to understand and make it work/keep it working well.. _________________ 80 Turbo - Slightly Modified |

If it's just the fuel it's not that bad. Speaking from experience, trying to get the fuel AND ignition working in the same ECU at the same time is a pain. :-/ Hindsight is 20/20.

Ha, I was pretty out of it on pain meds when I posted this.
Ah well, good advice, though!
