Early to late 1.9dg swap

Post by projordio »

Hi guys, I'm fitting a late 1.9dg into my early 1.9dg shell I got with no engine in. Just after some advice with the wiring with where some of the wires go. I've got two coolant sensors on the stat housing, a few connectors around the carb housing and two additions wires coming from the block .
I've figured out the three connectors in the daisy chain go to the carb connectors however there is another sensor on the carb which doesn't have anything to connect in
Any advice is greatly appreciated thanksImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

From what I recall, the black piggyback wire go to Fuel soleniod on carb and choke. Reds go to manifold heater and carb body heater

That is the fuel solenoid cut off.

Can't help much on the wiring, but replace your servo pipe with one from Brickworx.

Hi mate, can you let me know if I've got these right then? I'm missing a red connector completely if there is supposed to be one for that part you mentioned ImageImage

I was going to mention that in a different post as I keep cutting my hand on a few metal strands 😂 do you have a link for that at all as I'll get it ordered straight away

You got them wrong. The first black wire needs to connect to the carb itself, You've got it plugged into the manifold heater.

Needs to connect there.

Thanks for the quick reply, so I've put the only male connected into the carb now but I've got no connected going to the pink wire which is the manifold heater. Do I need a new wire for this?

Like that. The one I have circled connects to the carb body (throttle body heater) which I dont have currently that should be under the cut off solendoid (first black wire connection)

Ok, the manifold heater wire is the big red one , then all the thin black ones daisychain to the idle bypass solenoid, carb heater and choke .
The label you have that says temp gauge in pipe is infact the trigger wire for the manifold heater relay in the black box and needs to go to the second switch in the thermostat housing ( the one facing the wheel - the other one, facing the front of the van is the gauge sender )

The two browns into the twin white connector with yellow and blue out are the oil pressure wires , early van only needs the brown from between the push rod tubes to the blue wire , the other brown from the switch above the oil filter, behind the water pump pulley isnt used, nor the yellow it connects to

T7a/1 = Blue / Black 0.3 bar oil pressure switch
T7a/2 = Yellow / Red coolant gauge sender
T7a/3 = Blue / Green low coolant level switch
T7a/4 = Brown Sender unit common grounds
T7a/5 = Green rpm / tacho signal
T7a/6 = Red / Black terminal 50 supply
T7a/7 = Yellow 0.9 bar or 1.8 bar oil pressure switch.

Thankyou so much I'll give it a crack tomorrow , hopefully I can get it all connected to run 😊 I may ask for a bit of help tomorrow but I'll give it my best. It doesn't help I got the van without an engine to begin with so I've had no reference what was where 😂

Thought I'd say thanks, got it all wired up and it runs now without having to smash the throttle all the time 😂 got it all tucked nice and hidden aswellImageImageImage
