The engine will not provide satisfactory performance throughout its entire range if the frequency valve (acceleration enrichment circuit) is not functioning.

Anyway here's the deal: I can start my engine with no problems but it 
does have a slight back firing problem in the high RPM's. I know it 
can be anything causing it but here's what's happening....I don't 
think my Frequency Valve is not functioning...I don't hear it buzzing 
while the engine is idling or when I rev the engine up...could this 
be what's causing my backfiring problem? Also...when I connect a 
DWELL meter to the diagnostic plug (to the same circuit that's for 
the Frequency Valve) I don't get any readings (as one website 
describes and a few Bosch K-Jet repair manuals say)...could I have a 
faulty computer?? Also another strange thing...I let my engine idle 
for a few minutes today....when I went to turn the ignition off the 
engine was still running after I turned the key to the off position 
and removed the key. I thought maybe there was something wrong with 
the ignition switch so I unplugged it....engine was still running. I 
next removed the RPM relay knowing that it would stop the fuel pump 
and kill the engine...that stopped the engine. This was the first 
time this had ever happened. 

Thanks,

Steve
