What is the problem that you think that the EHA needs adjustment?

Has a fuel pressure gauge been connected & the differential pressure is incorrect?

No doc. I am interested for my own edification,I haven't as yet tested the fuel pressure though I do intend to,just to know what is up in this system,
Most of my problems are air related at this time, vacuum problems and the like. I have found a number of problems and wish to continue checking out the entire unit.
Thanks j-n-t

To adjust you must first remove the EHA & since is is in the fuel circuit don't do that with a warm/hot engine. Of course the key must be off. Be prepared to have fuel spray from the connection. Have rags available!

To adjust you will need a 2.5MM allen wrench, remove the brass closing plug (screw) & then the allen adjustment will be apparent.

NEVER move the the adjustment more than 1/6 of a turn at a time. Clockwise will create a higher differential pressure & therefore slightly richer at WOT.

Thank you doc. the resetting is not something that would normally be done then I take it? I would like to know ware I can find the procedure so I can familiarize myself with all the other interactions of this setting,so that I can get a better knowledge of the system.
Thanks j-n-t

Eha

Thank You DOC. the system is all new to me and I dint like being at the mercy of people that talk but really cant do,I have this car now for 11months and I have found so many things wrong that it is sad. I cant say who had done the majority of work on it but it left a lot to be desired.
