Ok- Probably in over my head here.
The story: Car started hesitating on way home tonight in the higher RPM range. I had set the mixture at 50% (fluctuating around that number) per the instructions I gathered from the site. I check to see what the reading is now- I am getting a 10% reading with some small fluctuation. So I attempt to bring it back to 50%. Car begins to stutter, and idles poorly. I'm getting nervous now so I correct back and the car dies. Engine now turns over but will only catch for a second or 2, idle VERY low, and then it just dies. I feel like I am in over my head now, but not ready to give up. The real problem is that I dont know if the mixture is way to lean or way to rich. Where do I go from here? I am feeling very humbled as I have been so successful with everything I have done to the car up until now ![]() Should I attempt to start the car with the EHA disconnected? Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Mike
