[alfa] Why won't it run the way it should?

["John S." <roadtrip999@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding the hot start problem. Try disconnecting the Cold Start Soleniod 
and see if that makes any difference. Be sure to tape over the wire so it 
doesn't short out. The plastic hydraulic plunger that the CSS actuates has 
been know to stick in it's bore and not release, thus enriching the mixture 
too much for normal running.

With temperatures like the are now, the engine should even start cold 
without the cold start solenoid. Also, with the engine hot check that the 
pump gap is .019" between the throttle arm on the rear of the injection pump 
and the reference screw.

As far as bogging down at 3000 rpm . . . . is the fuel pressure normal? Does 
the low pressure warning light come on initially when you turn the ignition 
on, then go off almost immediately?  Does the low pressure light come on 
while in normal driving?
