I'd like to make my car mostly original so I'd like to eventually convert back from a Weber carb to the 2.0 FI. What do I need to do that; has anyone here done it? any info is helpful

Is it single or dual carb ? not many folk change cams from the get go after removing FI because they don't want to spend the money to get that working.
Many of our cars had this done earlier on in their life because many mechanics blamed the FI for poor running,back then most had no idea how the system worked. Buy a complete system of a motor that was previously running,don't fall into the trap of buying individual parts and hoping they work. Factor in extra $$$ for replacing all the hoses and getting the injectors serviced,add a new fuel pump to the list. Do it right and you will have a better fuel system that starts easier,is smoother to drive with good economy. Good luck. |
