I am converting L Jetronic fuel Injection to single carb with electric choke. Is there any use for the double relay?

Several skilled and experienced 914 owners have spoken here, not in an effort to be critical but recognize that in this community, many are willing to give you the benefit of their wisdom from lessons learned (mistakes made) by those who have done what you are intending to do now. Please do not take their recommendations lightly. What you have not mentioned is the purpose and expectations you hope to achieve from the single carb, but you don't need ours or anyone's approval.
That said, the L-Jet ignition harness will need significant modification to use with carbs, basically a full rebuild and reconfiguration. A D-Jet ignition harness is the plug N play solution for carbs. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) very much sums it up,and well said Jeff,appears he shouldn't have even asked about anything really. |
