Ok so I was driving home yesterday nothing fast I just got gas and drove straight home at a lazy 50 mph. I went around a left hander at about 40 mph and went up to the light and all of a sudden the car stopped accelerating! Like i was out of gas but i just got gas. So right now i am thinking that the left hander might have sloshed some debris around that my fuel pump picked up and clogged my filter, fuel distributor, or fuel injector(s)?
I tested the idle and full throttle switches per the bently and they check out fine. I also tested the IAC and it checked out fine. I tested the CTS and it was fine. I even went as far as checking all these circiuts at the jetronic 25 pin connection for each input signal. I did notice that i did not get a correct reading for the knock sensor as per the test (maybe this is the problem?
Today I removed each injector and bled them to see if one was clogged. Number 1 was clogged so i cleaned it and they all sprayed fine so i reinstalled them. I tested the system for 76-81psi (CIS-E specs) and got 80psi so i am good for no fuel filter or pump clogs or return line clogs and fpr problems. So still i am thinking a fuel distributor problem (clogged or broken?)
Please chime in with some help. Sorry for thr novel!
