What kind of injection?, it's been around since the 20's or earlier and all systems work a little differently, maybe start with Youtube or Wikipedia?

not sure if you've searched but theres loads of info available in posts made here. Tap in "fuel injection" or "double relay" in the search box and you'll have plenty to read Wink

Actually, the Bently gives an excellent step by step testing procedure
which gives you a good understanding on it's working.I followed the
steps, saw results and it really helped.

Gramps, I would take a look at the AFC manual under the technical tab above. It tells you how to test each component and gives a bit of a blurb. I am not sure if the mexi-beetle operates on the same system, but I would think that the general principles are the same. I know that my 1991 Passat really isn't that different from my bus when it gets down to how the systems actually work.
