Hi 914 club, I am a new member to the club but a long time owner (since 1989),
Any how, I am looking to identify the make of my ECU, I know it is as simple as looking at the sticker on top of the ECU, however at some point the ECU I am currently using was spray painted and then the paint was scratched away to reveal the sticker (not by me) and when the paint was scratched away the numbers from the sticker were also removed, and I can not make out the last few critical numbers. So my big question is how in the world can I tell what ECU I have? Is there any internal markings that may lead me to my answer? What I do know, is that it is D-jet, it has a idle mixture knob and I am running it on a 2.0. My throttle body is a '74, but my head temp is a '73 w/o a ballast (and yes I am having some issues). Thanks in advance, -Rob |

I used the second meter to test 2 of the MPS I have avaliable, the meter was a Knight K-240C LCR Meter. I fully understand that this is not the specified meter to use, but what the heck.
At 0 hg, "A" was 1.58h, "B" was 1.57h. At 4 hg, "A" was 1.27h , "B" was 1.25h At 15 hg, "A" was at .74h. "B" was .82h. Since B has no glue on the zero stop screw I adjusted that unit. I set it to the values specified in the "bible", I adjusted for sea level. "B" is now set for 1.45h at 0 hg, 1.24h at 4hg and .75h at 15hg. I have not yet looked into the ECU for the possible internal sticker, maybe on saturday... While I did not drive the car after reinstalling the MPS, I did start it and it sure sounded sweet! I'll take it to work tomorow and have some fun on the way in! I appreciate all the info avaliable on the web and from fellow owners, thanks. -Rob |
