I know I'm gonna get stuff for this but I just put Solex 40mm singels on an 1.8 no cam change but I did replace tha dist. with a bosch 010 that I had laying around. The motor runs much better than it did when it was injected. Linda bough the car and I don't know how she drove that car to my house. The car runs better than Lindas 1.7 when it is running perfect.

Been running them for about a mounth. Those M/C hats got me through the RAIN. The carbs are have been good on gas. They sound much better than the L-jet. It cost me $500.00 to set them up new with the hex bar linkage.
Less than a Bolwsby loom and any sencer. The carbs sound kool. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Joe |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Another great thing about carbs is you can fiddle with the total timing to gain a few more HP on top of the extra HP you will get from using carbs and dialing them in properly--
Cannot do that with FI--you throw the trigger points all out of whack and eff up the whole shebang-- Ok,OK--only cause I know Lupawali will see this--- (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/hide.gif) Properly set up ignition and carbs will yeild astonshing results with mileage--it is no-where as bad as some seeem to think-- With my 1.7 and dual 40's I could average about 38-42 MPG as long as if I was not stomping on it all the time--then it WOULD go down to about 28-32--but I spent over two days dialing in the whole system--but once I was done-- (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) |

I have more money in the D-Jet parts and tools to moniter it than I have in the 75 altogether. ( Bowlsby loom, MPS, CHT, an LM-1 and a VOM)

I'm on the look out for some 44 IDF's - I'm going to do the switch - I too have spent a pretty penny on spare parts and can't seem to get it right (FI).

Oh! I've got it right. I've got the D-Jet running the Air/Fuel Ratio between 13.3 and 14.5 %. I think I can do better. It only cost $2,00.00 for the induction. It runs awsom but that is another thread. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bs.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) the advance/retard timing with the stock distributor has 0 negative effect with the triggering of the stock FI..... if you are using a stock distributor with carbs, then you have the same limitations as one does with the stock FI.....now with an aftermarket distributor like my Mallory, I have no problems with my D-Jet with it setup more aggresive than the stock distributor... |
