Hey all,

Any advice on how to address my engine idle misses/chugging? The car almost always takes 3 attempts to start so I am starting to think that the fuel pump may be clogged somewhere (filter?). I've linked a few videos below for your listening pleasure, any other tips on the performance would be appreciated.

Info....D-jet or L-jet?

Ok....D-jet....nice videos!.....I will look them over carefully.....but right off....jt sounds like you have a possible exhaust leak.

To start with.....what have you done, changed, ....overall condition.

What is your fuel pressure?
What is your timing?

What plugs?
Valve adjustment condition?

It acts like a normal vacuum leak woth D-jet.

Condition of AAR?
Reading of CHT?
