With show day now only a couple of days away, the rush was on. I had a car on stands, with a diff on the ground. Not ideal.

Part 2 focused on how to test the system, now using the information from testing, we can move on to tuning and fixing any issues with the KJet system.
In Part 1 we figured out the basics of what the components are and what they do. Now it’s time to test the system and see what we are starting with.
Bosch K-Jetronic seems to be a bit of a black art these days. Almost anyone you mention it to backs off and cringes. Hopefully this series of posts clears up some of that misinformation and scaremongering, and opens more people up to working with their KJet instead of binning it, or neglecting it until it inevitably fails.
Well, it has been an interesting time on the TVR front. Most recently, I have been dealing with one of those “why did I start this” jobs on the car.
With the brake rotors slowly making their way to me from across the planet, I wanted to get the TVR in for a Warrant Of Fitness inspection to see if there was anything else I needed to order.
With the KJet Cologne firing on all cylinders, the next step toward a WOF was to look into the brakes and why they shudder horribly.
I’ve been having some issues with getting the correct parts for the Tasmin, so this post will be a running log of the correct parts used on my early Tasmin.
Sigh, It seems like my life is a never-ending cycle of messing with KJet fuel pressures.
In the quest to both right previous wrongs and make things on this car actually work, I had to have a look at the braking system. It worked, kinda, but needed to be better.
