I have seen purty pictures of a factory stock 2l engine but I don't remember seeing any pictures of a stock & fully dressed 1.8 with L-jet.


Does anyone have any good ones, I am considering doing a stock restoration and would like some reference shots.

thanks!

74 1.8 Ljet or a 75-76 1.8 Ljet??

The engine layout is slightly different, some components look a little different.

How about both?

It would be nice to see the differences.

anyone? Clay?

Let me know if you want photos of anything in particular.

Wow that is clean! Thank you

what year?

About a looking down on it view kind of like this

It's a '75 1.8L, I put back all the original FI components (it's a CA car so needs EGR & cat). It passed the emissions test with flying colours. Here are some more photos. Obviously, the engine is back in the car so it's difficult to get a really good overall photo.

By the way, many thanks to the L-jet experts here that helped me get everything installed and tuned as is.

Note the spring on the throttle is a MacGyver special. I don't have the original spring and wasn't sure what size and where to attach.

If you look under the rear seal at the engine tin, you should find a small hole to connect the throttle return spring.

Thanks for the pictures, how did you restore the intake manifolds?

I removed the old paint, prepped, and recoated with silver Duplicolor engine enamel.
