Hello. I have a 1973 1.7 D-Jet and am having some issues with my vacuum canister on the distributor. It is a 2 connection distirbutor. First off.
Can anyone explain to me exactly how the 2 connection works? And number 2- Can I plug it and use a 1 connection? The reason why I ask is because PP has to order them(and even then it may be NLA) and it's 24$ for the 1 connection and 188$ for the 2. I can't really afford a 2 connection. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Derek |

Thanks, Derek Derek on your 73 1.7 both ports are always used and important for good acceleration and stable idle. The small one sticking up into the air at the back is the advance and the larger one sticking out of the side is the retard. The advance is connected to the back of the throttle valve, the retard is connected to the front of the throttle valve. Goodness can be checked by evacuation and observance of the distributor plate moving smoothly one way and then the other. (with the dist cap off of course) There is only one available for your car, the 07 109 or 917 (number on the advance lever) and no other will work correctly except maybe the 831 earlier 1.7 07 085. The single port was never fitted to any 914 and at 5.00 would be a waste of money. |
