I see your point.
Here are some remarks:
- The car had less than 100k miles in it when the timing chain (those cursed one-row chains) broke. The car was standing still for about 2.5 years at this guy I bought the car from. This obviously explains the sticky valve and the destroyed o-rings. The manifold gasket inside the distributor is in great condition - it is just the o-rings that do not bring it anymore. (nothing inside has wear marks either) - so I figured if I clean it - do not touch the flow control bolts (the allen bolts behind the allen bolts (as those o-rings seem to be intact)) but replace the rest of the seals then I should not modify any of the flow characteristics. I have found some places on the net that do offer a flow adjustment if you send in your fuel distributor.
I have a hard time buying a used one as it may have problems soon. I have a hard time buying a new and/or rebuilt one as I did not pay much more for the entire car
. This was supposed to be a fun project - but now it is getting deep into my pockets. I measured the o-rings inside and now I will try to find fuel-resistant o-rings in those sizes.
If I understand you correctly, the only right way to adjust the fuel distributor is to adjust with its corresponding injectors - right?
Thanks!
