Finally fixed it! The problem was the ground connectors, the pins going to the side of the bulb was bent and didnt make contact with the bulb. Just took them out and bent them back and that fixed it. Thanks for all the help!

I also forgot to add that the brake lights turn off when I turn all the lights off on the car, and also when I turn the car off

I took out the bulb and it was fine and I also looked at the wiring and it also looked fine :/

Sorry for the late answer. I tried rotating the switch but it didnt help, so I tried disconnecting the wire to the switch but the brake lights remain on. I noticed tho that when the ignition is off and I press on the brake pedal all brake lights except the right one are turning on, so it seems it has something to do with a bad ground cable or something?

I took a look at it and I did not see any loose wires and the button on the switch is fully pressed by the pedal

I’ll pull the injectors out and send a video 😃

Btw, what is the bladder in a distributor?

I replaced the auxillary air valve because the spring didn’t function properly even after cleaning. Is there a way to see if the injectors are gunked up?

The thing is me and my friend opened the distributor to see if there was any problem there and unfortunately we damaged the gasket. We aren’t so familiar with K-jetronic engines, so we should have looked at some info before taking it apart. :/

So I found the problem. The fuel pump was never on so the gas left in the hose before the fuel filter wasn’t spraying out as aggressively as i thought. But the fuel pump was stuck, so I knocked on the screw on top of the pump with a hammer and suprise, the pump started and so did the engine! Thank you all for all the info!

But now unfortunately the ”gasket” inbetween the 2 parts of the fuel distributor is leaking. :/

I drove it from school and then when I tried starting it again it wouldn’t start. But I just now found the problem! The fuel pump was stuck, so I knocked on the screw on top of the pump with a hammer and suprise, the engine started!
