Default RE: 1986 1.8 CABRIOLET FUEL INJECTION PROBLEMS

Going to go out on a limb here early this morning and declare victory over it. I think I had it a little too lean last night. Had to richen it up a little this morning, but as of right now it is starting perfect. Sure wish I had the proper analyzing tools to do it right. Maybe that shop that did the shoddy work will feel the responsibility to look at it again and do it right for me now.

Okay, now it's really fixed. One, 5th injector line was plugged. Fixed that. Put another WUR on. But the big fix is in the photo I am attaching. It is a meter that reads the air/fuel mixture. Perfect would be 45, but I am running it a little bit lean on purpose trying to squeeze the most mpg as possible out of her. It is not unusual for me to drive 200 miles on any given day. But this meter sure makes setting it properly a cinch.

I am having the same problems with my 1985 Cabriolet. What meter did you use? I couldn't open the picture. Do you have another picture? Thanks
