Mainly I am looking for the connectors that plug into the FI Trigger Points. They are small, and radio Shack doesn't have them. Is there an online place where I can search for these types of things?

Ask Bowlsby nicely. He has them. I was able to find parts that were "close" at a local Metric and Electrical supply house, Global Metrics in Belmont CA. I was also able to get them from a Beck-Arnley dealer--B-A supplies parts to a lot of auto parts stores.
But frankly, Chris, if the harness is old enough that the connectors are falling off, you really owe it to yourself to just get a rebuilt one (yeah, 99% new is "rebuilt") so you can know it's all in good shape. --DD |

Yea, I do need a new one, but it is not that bad yet. Its not that it is falling apart, just a few of the connectors need to be replaced (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Damnit! I remember coming across some site (Besides Bowlsby's) that had fuel injection boots and all kinds of grommets and fuel injection pieces.
I thought I book marked it, but now I can't find it! If anyone else does, post the link here. Karl |

If all you need is a couple wire terminals...I do simple repairs too...
I clean and bench test the entire harness, replace boots and any other missing parts and make it good as new. |

914 Wizard? No way. I got too much to learn. Group: Members Posts: 4,099 Joined: 21-April 03 From: Gig Harbor, WA Member No.: 598 |
Chris, Check wrecked Vanagons. Many of the connectors are the same. they are not new but are better. Be prepared to solder.

Dave, Vanagons are L-jet, and the 73 714s are D-Jet as you well know. Two different connectivity systems that are not easily interchangeable.
The L-jet wire terminals do not fit into the 3 pole trigger point (or any of the ) D-Jet housings, but the L-jet housings can be made to fit onto the D-Jet FI components. Its just that the L-Jet parts need modification to fit and then the connection wont be encased by a rubber boot as teh D-Jet is, so the connection will get contaminated with moisture, dirt, and all the other stuff found in open engine compartments. |
