Played around today, the FD adjustment makes no effect on the fuel delivered to the injectors. Very little flow. If memory serves, I had the same issue with the FD on #30. Next step will be to remove the FD and do a rebuild.

That might take a few weeks....

Well, rebuilt the FD, painstakingly laid out all the old parts, cleaning, and reassembling, reinstalled, cranked her up, she started, and immediately started to pour gas out of the tailpipe, while still running....****...

well, looks like I have to take it apart again....I have gotten too damn good at disassembling these things....I don’t know what I fvcked up on this one...maybe pinched an oring.....

sheesh....

Fast forward 7 months....fuel distributor still giving problems. Floods motor out when I try to start no matter how I adjust it. This one will go back on the bench and all apart...again....in the meantime, I have ordered a rebuilt fuel distributor, the price was too good to be true....so, we will see if I got hosed or not...supposed to be here on Thursday.

in the meantime, since I got the white 82 running, and living up on the top of the hill with all the daily drivers, the wife has been pressuring me to get the other car off her patio....so...removed the worn phonies with the flat tires and threw on my boxster wheels....dropped her to the ground, and with a little help, got her FINALLY into the shop and on the lift....with a little luck, this one will be running in a couple weeks.

I am thinking you need a bigger garage. Keep going my friend, I know the pain of having to juggle 3 928's in and out of the garage.

Got this jewel in the mail today. I am embarrassed to say what I paid, because I feel like I stole it....

That is awesome! And you have the old one as a spare or core.

Yup! I am quite certain, I can eventually rebuild this one correctly. Can’t hurt to have a spare....
