Subject:Down on Power

Hi All,
I found my problem. My Westy was down on power after I rebuilt (replaced) all
the plastic and rubber parts that melted in the engine fire. Turns out I had
a second bad fuel injector. They both were from the donor van I found at
Specialized German in Rancho Cordova, CA. That sounded like a slam, not meant
that way at all. Anyway I had a good one from the engine fire fuel rail and
it works OK. So the Turtle Girl is on the road again, all insured and smogged
and we are going to DMV for plates on Monday. Thanks to all the posts, I have
learned so much! My Go Westy catalog just arrived in the mail and I'm going
to go for some of the pretty stuff to dress up my girl.

Cary in San Jose, CA.
'85 Westy "Turtle Girl"
