Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod

Im wondering though if the continued pressurising the injectors with fuel while we cranked and cranked but no pulsing/opening might have lead to blocking of one or more - but only because they are probably pretty dirty already

Just a theory

Re: Tyre sizing?

As far as I’m am aware, other than bigger anti-roll bars no ‘clever things’ were done with the suspension until the 964

F*ck it. Just ordered another 5 injectors.

If I run out of time before then I can always pop them in during the trip

Thanks Wayne. I think I’ve got one somewhere as well. But I’m still focussing on the injector initially

Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod

All good stuff but I'll be judging it after I get at that injector. I'm hoping that is the smoking gun

Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod

Also can you check the voltage at that injector just to make sure it’s getting a signal to open? I’m not doing that now as I’m knackered. Also I checked all the wiring the other day and also also the signal goes to all 3 injectors simultaneously. And also also also that wouldn’t explain the leaking...

It’s a good start Mark. A mere misfire won’t stop you now. If I were you I’d be buying a set (or at least a couple) of injectors before you go mountain climbing. Also possibly some o rings for the connection to the rail. Best of luck as ever Great minds - I’ve just ordered a new injector - Design 9...
