Re: SVX can't climb hills

This hill's the main stretch of campus, so I can't keep testing and failing lol. So my main battle plan is to put some work in tonight and tomorrow and then head towards the mountains this weekend to find a nice, isolated hill.

If the ground and vacuum lines are good, I'll get it to die on an incline and then see what kind of gas is going into the filter.

I didn't try going up the hill in 2nd. I had traffic all around me , so I threw it into 1st Manual and gave her all she had.


As for fuel leaks, it has been pretty rough here lately, but I haven't smelled any fuel. And aren't the fuel lines run through the channel under the door?
