I rebuilt my Bosch 2.0L dizzy (p/n 039 905 205) but the vacuum canister is bad so I used a good one from a 1.7L dizzy I have on hand. The PET lists these as different part numbers and now I'm wondering if I need to track down the correct canister for this dizzy. Anyone know how much difference in advance between canisters and if it will make a difference? I'm going to be running Webers for now but may eventually restore the D-Jet and install.

You'd be better off using a 1.8 distributor

You'd be better off using a 1.8 distributor I've read that the 1.8 is the preferred "stock" dizzy for carbs but my thought is to try one I already have first and if I have to buy a different dizzy, I will probably buy an SVDA for carbs. I've been curious why the 1.8 is better though. Does it have a better advance curve, or is it just because of the lack of injector triggers? I pulled my triggers and made a blanking plate for the hole. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-20845-1558413627.jpg) |

Get the 123 with bluetooth. Good luck. That would be cool but a couple problems with that. First is $$$. It's not in the budget. Second is the good chance I'll be restoring the original D-Jet and putting it back on after a few years depending on my experience with the carbs. From what I can tell, that would require a different model of 123 dizzy than for carbs. I definately don't have the budget to buy two of them. They look cool though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I did put a Pertronix in mine though so at least I'll be points free. I think this stock dizzy will at least be a step up from the 050 I bought back in the 80s for this project but never used. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
