“The engine was saddled with exhaust port air injection and a throttle-lag controller.”
Didn’t know that. Makes sense to pull. IIRC my dad had a BMW of about ‘75 that he disabled the air injection by simply taking off a dedicated belt. Come inspection time, he would put it on for the drive up.
Was yours a Cali model?
Yeah, I took the whole air injection mess off and plugged the injection ports.
In my dreams, I wanted to put on 3 40 DCOE Webers and a hot cam and go hunting for Porches. 8-)
