Many of you may remember my 123 Distributor install that finally worked out.
(here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...370332&hl=) I now have a vacuum pump and multi meter - TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE. Unit is an 041 and has obviously been cracked open - before my time. It's marked with a Sharpie "74-76 2.0" which I believe is incorrect and should be for a 71-72 1.7. Maybe this accounts for the opening and potential adjustment. Currently holds 15in pretty much indefinitely and I get 93ohms between pins 7 and 15, and 344ohms between pins 8 and 10. All that seems pretty much right on - but it would NOT start after putting in the 123. Prior to the 123, it ran "fine" but then started running warm due to a distributor vacuum issue (more in another thread) Distributor was an 011 with a Pertronix Igniter II. Installed a "correct" 043 MPS and it fired right up and works great with the 123. Honestly - I'm just looking to acquire some database info for the World and then move this on, so if someone wants it, just yell. I have no idea what it's worth. |

Was going down the wormhole on the history of my 914 and found this picture related the 041 MPS that didn't want to play nice with my 123 install.
The MPS in question has very distinctive orange paint marking the screws - as seen earlier in this thread. Look what I found from a post by the previous owner (Will Lutman) here on 914 World. See that orange paint on the MPS on the left of the frame? That's from when he picked it up from Brad Mayeur at 914 LTD in Peoria when he was pulling together parts to build the 2.0. Amazing what's "out there" and I can now confirm that it was rebuilt right around Nov 6, 2005 - the date that's in the picture metadata. |
