    Jetronic repairs

    Due to the worsening condition of the cars operation Ive started to go through the separate fuel injection components to see whats causing the issues.

    This season, progressively worse starting and hunting is experienced on this Delorean with a Bosch K-Jetronic Fuel injection system. Lets fix it and while were there replace the last few high pressure hoses.

    Continuing from the last video, we will be rebuilding a plugged Warm Up regulator, and re-calibrating it.

    I'm looking forward to watch these videos! They surely look very interesting and well-made!

    One thing I noticed right away: the little vacuum silicone hose from the oil filler cap to the cold start valve... Mine is connected to the upper port, whereas in your engine it is connected to the lower port in the CSV! I guess it's the same? Or do I have to swap the thing?

    Anyway, well done!

    I believe both connections are common and shouldn't matter.

    Continuing from the last video, we will be replacing and testing fuel injectors, some other repairs and finally checking timing and adjusting the CO Screw.

    Continuing from the last video, we fix the cooling fan, change the oil test the Accumulator to determine if its the failed component and then remove the broken accumulator from the car.
