Re: [DML] Engine Running Problems

What is your system pressure at the fuel distributor? It sounds like a fuel
starvation problem. Did you replace the fuel filter which is located at the
left rear of the car on the inside of the frame? (You need to remove the
left rear tire to get to it.) Do yourself a favor and buy a Bosch Fuel
Injection manual. Two of them were just referenced on this list 2 or 3 days
ago.
