Need Photos/Diagrams to help hook up L-Jetronic FI on 1975 Porsche 914 2.0L 4cyl, L-Jetronic Help Options

[91422.7]

I'm in the process of installing a L-Jetronic Fuel Injection System on a 1975 Porsche 914 2.0L engine, which I'm installing the engine etc. in a 1970 914 body. The FI system was reportedly from a 1975 914 engine along with the engine. I'm needing some good photos or good diagrams that will help locate where all the wiring goes.
Items I've been working from:
1) Haynes 914 Owners Workshop Manual
2) Internet flow charts and electrical charts

From the attached photos, you can see on the FI wiring harness I have several wires that are hanging loose. I believe the ones on the p/s the 4 wires together go to the MPC Sensor in the picture. Anyhow any help would be appreciated.

From the picture you can see I have the wires going to the 4 injectors hooked up, not sure if they are going to the correct injector but I don't think it matters!

When I purchased the 2.0L Engine it had twin carbs on it, it possibly had some parts removed.

I think some of the wires go to the following items:

1) Cylinder head temp sensor
2) EGR Valve (which isn't going to be used on exhaust)
3) MPC Sensor (4 wire plug in)
4) Intake Manifold Temp Sensor
5) Thermostat Switch
6) Cold Start Valve
7) Engine Speed Relay
8) Throttle Valve Switch
9) Vacuum advance Disconnection 2-way valve
10) To starter terminal

.....Maybe I've answered my own questions? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Looks like you have a D-jet system, not L-jet. D-jet would be correct for a '75 2.0L, L-jet was used on the 1.8.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) You will have better luck using D-Jet manuals / references. For example, L-Jet doesn't use the MPS you have there.

Very good reference: D-Jet Parts and Troubleshooting

Thanks for the update on the D-Jetronic identification....I will look into the reference book you mentioned! Thanks again

General comments: Remove the plug for the FI wiring harness from the ECU. The pins in there are numbered from one end or the other. You can use a continuity tester to tell what the other end of the wire is connected to. Look up that number on the wiring diagram, and that's the component that the wire connects to.

First pic: 2-liter D-jet air cleaner.
Second pic: Get rid of those low-pressure fuel filters; D-jet's 29 PSI will pop them and spray fuel on your engine. Not good.
Third pic: Three wires cut off--could go to the trigger points down in the base of the distributor. If so, they would go into a 3-pin plastic plug body and have female spade terminals on the end.
Fourth pic: Intake air temp and throttle position switches plugged in.
Fifth pic: Four wires with 3mm female spades on the end. Very possibly the MPS connections. The should go into a four-connector plastic plug.
Sixth pic: Three doubled wires with 6mm female spades. The grounds. They go onto a washer with three tabs sticking out that goes on one of the case through-bolts near the flywheel end of the top of the engine.
Seventh pic: The ECU. Unplug it to check the circuit numbers for the wires you can't figure out. It should mount onto the front of the battery tray, unless the car was cut for A/C, in which case it would get mounted on the firewall.
Eighth pic: Uhh, stuff. There's stuff in that picture...
Ninth pic: MPS. Manifold Pressure Sensor. The bracket (should have two rubber grommets in those C-shaped cutouts) bolts to a bracket on the right side of the engine bay.
Tenth and eleventh pics: Documentation. Good to have.

Dave, that helps a lot, I'm on it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Buy all the rubber boots for the plugs as without them the FI plugs will come off. Or send the FI harness to Jeff with all the pieces to be rebuilt.
What ECU do you have? look for the model numbers
What MPS do you have?
What injectors do you have?

They need to match year wise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

Bleyseng; Thanks for the additional info about the FI plugs and I will have to check the numbers on the FI parts!
