Check your ignition system. Coils, points, etc..

Subject: more fuel problems


|Alright. I wrote earlier about my fuel problems and it has now gotten
worse.
|I have a bone stock 78 with fuel injection.
|When cranking now,it fires and dies.
|I got it to hold once and it ran, but when revved up, it spit and
|sputtered as if not getting gas and then would just die back down to
|idle.
|sometimes it would rev fine, but the next touch of the accelerator
|and it would spit again.
|I replaced the fuel filter, cause it needed it.
|Most seemed tothing the fuel accumulator is the biggest problem.
|Alright, where do I find one.
|The nearest VW dealer to me says they don't carry them anymore, but
|if they did, it is around 200 bucks.
|Where can I find one and find it cheaper.
|Or convince me that I shouldn't just scrap the whole system and put on
carbs.
|You can trust a carb. Kind of like a carrot...like carlin used to
|say....You can trust a carrot.
|I like the car, but this damned fuel injection is pissing me off.
|Help.
|Any suggestions would be appreciated.
|Also a line on thefuel accumulator, or a place where I can get a carb
|and manifold for this beast.
|Again
|TIA
