So I've got this good running '74 2.0 motor that I'd like to swap with the 1.8 in my car. The problem is the MPS (an 043) is shot. It holds no vacuum. From what I've gathered I have 4 options:
1. Find a NOS unit: $$$$ if you can find one. 2. Buy a rebuilt unit that's rebuilt using a different material for the diaphram: I've read that these units (I've been quoted $200-275) don't have the same characteristics as the original and performance suffers. 3. Have mine rebuilt using a good diaphram from another MPS unit: not sure if this is a DIY as I would assume the unit would have to be recalibrated. I know there is a member here that does rebuild them. 4. Buy a used one that holds a vacuum: I've found one for $100. The deal is they want mine as a core. I'm leaning towards the last option. Whadda ya'll think? |
