Default Series 1 running problems fuel metering head

Hi guys, does anyone know what the two plugs on the fuel metering head should have going to them I.e on the black regulator box which h pin is earth- ecu- and 5 volts or switch, Also the same question for the other connector to the metering. My mechanic wants to check this and rule out regulators or ecu. Basically need to meter out both Connectors to establish they are working

many thanks hope this makes sense

From EX Auto sparks now retired at 76, fully conversent with Bosch "K" and "KE" systems, the system is much more mechanical than Electrical when engine Hot and running, yes there are lots sensors / components 2 ECUs , ignition silver / injection black.... but its all old school.....so in awnser to your question, the Fuel Distributor has a "Pressure actuator" on the front....voltage when running..NONE !... if it ever did....would barely run....it comes into play on starting ONLY and self resets on the "Bi-metal princible" as outher components do. so need to know the engine problem , can help with diagnosis.

Hi peter

i need to know what signal the air flow sensor should send back to fuel ecu, and why it’s not. Out of the three pins the outside two are showing a 7.9 volts to the sensor

if you don’t mind would u private msg me a contact number and I can call you, will be easier to explain where I’m at

many thanks

datren
