    Default Still missing

    Replaced ignition wires, rotor, dist cap, plugs and cleaned the icv, but it still is missing at 2000 to 3000 rpm. Any ideas? Injectors perhaps? How do you clean these puppies?

    I wouldn't bother cleaning the injectors, you can get a cheap set on ebay and replace them.

    Default Injectors wouldn't miss at just 2 to 3k

    Check the gap on the crankshaft postion sensor and see if its loose

    I pulled the radiator fan cowling and the fan. Got down in there and noticed that that one of the bolts holding the position sensor bracket was loose. Tighten it up and the 535 seems to be running better. My question is how do you adjust the sensor. I see that the distance from the sensor to the notched wheel is 1mm + or - 0.3 mm. but I don't see any way of adjusting the distance. It appears there are two bolts holding the sensor mounting bracket to the engine but I could only remove one. How do you get to the other bolt? Remove the notched wheel? I also noticed that the sensor is held to the bracket using a allen wrench bolt how on earth do you get to this puppy? Is this the bolt to perform the adjustment?

    Loosen the 10mm nut and it'll let you position it up or down. Tighten it to hold.

    Default You should be able to get to both of the

    bolts on the face without removing the notched pulley. The gap should be 1mm. You have to have the notched wheel on there to set the gap.
