Thanks for the Info

After much mucking around it turned out to the the engine management module but the injectors where opening and being triggered but only at cranking speeds anything greater and it was just running on the cold start injector.

Of course after testing the injectors where actually opening I then resorted to basic electrical things like ignition switch, points and replacing the injector points in the distributer all to no avail. If I shorted out the fuel pump relay it would at least idle as long as I wanted it to but of course it wouldn't come off the idle and certainly was underivable. My best guess is that the owner jump started this car and damaged the control unit. Now that it is drivable all I have to do is build a new Transistorized Ignition Module and clean up the mess that I've made.

But thanks for the data as I will certainly get a Bosch Manual for the Injection system which is so much like the latter units but has different relay points. What I found confusing at first was the lack of any transistorized ignition module but on closer inspection I found it hidden between the battery holder and the front of the car. Incidental the car was an AU delivered unit so that is probably why there is so little data about it.

Thanks
