For those in the position of having a non-functional or failing distributor there is an alternative.
I ran into this issue while building a stock 2.0 motor for my car- while trying to source parts for what I thought was a functional stock distributor. The link is here for information: http://123ignitionusa.com. I talked to Ed ......he is based in Ohio and he said he would do group buy discounts if others were interested. Details: 914 models are available in the following configurations: 1. Hardcoded advance curves with no vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet. 2. Hardcoded advance curves with vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet. 3. Hardcoded advance curves with no vacuum, no bluetooth, with output for D-Jet This is the unit to choose for stock D-Jet users. 4. Custom bluetooth tunable advance curves with vacuum, with bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. This is the best unit for carbs, L-Jet, aftermarket FI 5. Custom laptop tunable advance curves with vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet. Coupon Code to use at checkout is: 914world Group Buy discount is 10% off retail on any product I offer. If there are more than 10 orders the discount becomes 15% and the additional 5% will be refunded to the cc of the first ten orders. This group buy is for shipping to any address Con US. The group buy will run for three weeks and orders will all ship 7-10 days after the close (Nov 10). Place all orders NOW using the coupon code, and that puts you 'on the list' but your part won't ship until mid-November. I.ll keep the thread bumped for a couple of weeks to measure or collect interest. Rob 10-22-2017 Edit: -Rob Here is the confirmed ...by me....orders that we have. Mark D. (McMark) was kind enough to edit some clarifications for the type of Dizzy to get. You are ultimately responsible...that way we all learn at least something. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Here is the count I have: TJB/914 -1 914_teener-1 Philip W.-1 pvollma-1 Amphicar770-1 BeatNavy-1 nditiz1-1 CMONNETT-1 Bsherrard-1 olsib914-1 pete000-1 ( Met Pete at Luftenkult) I'll vouch for him. Morrie-1 I count 12 if for interest only, so if true that would be 15% discount off list. This will be great comparing notes on performance. |

FYI page 1 Specifications
Temperature : -30 to 95 degrees Celsius I haven't confirmed if this is ambiant temp or operating. I bought it 3 weeks and I'm having issues with heat. I started a thread but haven't updated it. We have had hot weather 95 and up . With temps in the 70's she runs great but above 85 she starts pinging on hard acceleration. Been a Dr. Jeckell Mr. Hyde experience, latest test 100 octane fuel. |

Been a Dr. Jeckell Mr. Hyde experience, latest test 100 octane fuel. I remember your thread. Did you ever call them and ask them about it? These dizzys are running in engines all over the place, in climates just like yours (and warmer) without issue. Yours may have an issue (defective out of the box - it does happen), or it needs to be re-tuned. You should not need 100 octane fuel and should not be pinging under what would be considered normal operating conditions. My experience with the 123 people (and others in the BMW community) is that the customer support is pretty darned good. IMO, they could not sell these things if the upper range of operation was only 95 degrees. On a moderate day, its often over 110 under the hood of a normal car. Zach |

Zach I hope Zach is right because around here in the summer its going to be on average in the middle to upper 90's - of course I don't drive the car much on those days , unless I get the A/C thing figured out bynext year. Keep us posted on your experience with this mgphoto please! |
