Now just one GL450 with EORP.
C107 Revival


I’ve woken this one up after 14 years of sitting outside. New fuel pump and hoses, and I cleaned the pretty gross tank out using electrolysis.

It’s a difficult cold start but easy hot start so the WUR ain’t doing WUR things but it moves OK under its own power, although sluggishly. I fired it up on this somewhat questionable fuel system just ensure that the basic engine and transmission are worth saving. Obviously, I have to go through the whole system and do all the CIS things.

Game plan is to check for vacuum leaks, and sure the ignition system is up to snuff, then to back flush all the injectors and filters in the fuel divider, then check pressures.

could someone please post up the WIS for checking system regulated pressure in the 1977 C107?

Here is a link to the service manual for checking fuel pressures. https://www.tonk.ca/r107CD1/Program/...45/073-120.pdf
