Now when you unplug you DPR to put the harness in does the car stumble =
and try to die? If you can plug and unplug your harness and it makes no =
difference to the car I would say your DPR is hosed.

Subject: help: cis-e mixture adjustment



i had $30 laying around one day so i bought the tt fuel mixture test =
harness.  i found instructions online so i decided to see what was going =
on with my 1987 16v.  my car has been guzzling gas lately and my =
high-rpm horsepower just aint what it used to be. =20

hooked everything up and started the car (allready warm), but the =
multimeter (digital, set on a 20mA scale) reads zero.  let it set for a =
few minutes.....still zero.  instructions say that zero means that i am =
way way too rich.  i turn the screw counter clockwise less than 1/8th =
turn and the car starts to stumble, i back out the bypass screw on the =
tb to balance it a little.  cars idling again for a few minutes.... =
still says zero.  i even turned it down to the 2mA scale for an extra =
decimal place, but its zero there too.  if there is a vacuum leak i =
cannot find it (most of my vaccum system is removed).  the injector =
o-rings are not that old (maybe 12 or 14k miles).  someone that has done =
this before please help me out.  all i can do right now is turn the 2 =
screws until they balance out and the car will idle at a decent speed.

tia,
