Re: [MBZ] the warp drive mystery
Well...it may be the filter. If it is old, change it. However there are other possibilities such as blocked screen in the fuel tank (not likely due to the suddenness of the problem). Weak fuel pump (not likely due to the suddenness of the problem). From there things get more tricky (more likely). Is it the CIS or CIS/E (K or KE) jetronic injection system? What troubles me is the suddenness of the problem (am I repeating myself?), if it was filter related I would expect a gradual loss of performance unless some really filthy fuel went into the system. The oilers will agree that blocked filters come on slowly and not just one day I was zipping along and the next day it was no go. Agreed that if the engine revs with external fuel delivery then ignition and air supply problems can be ruled out, so back to the fuel system. Have you checked the throttle linkages to ensure they can move their full amount of travel (the throttle flap should move about 80 degrees)? Have you checked the sensor plate for ease of movement? When pushed down there should be slight resistance all the way down and then should snap shut. You can also push down the sensor plate with the motor idling, it should stall. The only real way of diagnosing the system is with fuel pressure gauges, which I don't have. Anyway you can try changing fuel filters but I have a feeling there might be bigger probs.
