Re: T25 2.1 fuel injection water cooled losing power on acceleration

My 2.1 MV engine van had similar running symptoms you describe, after a few weeks of failing to get the van to run correctly despite helpful advice from forum members I converted the van to carb. The van is now running very smoothly with a standard Pierburg setup with mechanical fuel pump and a Powe...

Re: 2.1 injection to carb conversion.

Why are you changing from FI to carb ? After many weeks of frustration trying to sort out  my fi problems I decided to go back to the simple  user friendly carb, which I have had many years of reliable use on my previous van, basic diy simplicity without all the 30 year old electric gizmo's.

Re: 2.1 injection to carb conversion.

My mistake, I had assumed it was a 2.1 DJ but on checking the service book
it is a MV van, for simplicity I will convert to carb and run the Powerspark 
SVDA distributer which connects directly to the coil thus eliminates the ECU etc.

Re: 2.1 injection to carb conversion.

Anyone using the Powerspark 034 SVDA distributer
which connects directly to the coil thus eliminating 
the ignition module or in my case the ECU, seems
like a simple solution if it works.

Re: 2.1 injection to carb conversion.

A DJ should have a dual vac dizzy. Are you saying you have no vac can on the dizzy? That sounds more like the MV unit, where the ignition timing advance curve is controlled by the ECU. If so, you should use the DG unit, but perhaps with a little more advance. Sent from my moto g(30) using Tapatalk ...
