Mike,
I just bought a new CNC Swiss Screw machine with a 5/8" bar max cap. Let me know if there is any tough turning you need done.

Next make a MAP adaptor to replace the MPS and you'll single-handedly revive D-Jet. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

Great stuff Mike.

This has been discussed. It's not at all straightforward, because of the way the MPS works and interacts with the ECU. Brad Anders gave me the poop, and it's pretty clear that replacing the MPS requires nearly a complete MS-class ECU. At that point, you may as well just replace the D-Jet ECU with an MS ECU and save yourself a lot of trouble.

Mike's little solution here, though, is a pretty nice step forward for anyone wanting to use a Mallory with D-Jet.

it's a real simple circuit

only 3 resistors and a transistor....don't laugh at my wiring, I am not too sure how I want to package it....this is very hooky (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Cool, but how often, honestly, are the trigger points a problem? In close to 33 years of D jet work, I think I may have sold 5 or 6 sets of trigger points, and I KNOW 2 of those were for a MBZ V8. They just don't fail that often. The other parts, on the other hand, ARE a problem. Breaker plates wear out, the ground strap breaks, the vac cans fail, and the points wear out. BUT, can the replacement provide the same advance curve. Remember, you set the total advance to 28 degrees with the vacuum lines off, but there are conditions where the timing advances to 36-40 degrees .................. The Cap'n

John, this is not to replace the trigger points in a stock distributor, but instead allow one to use a new Mallory distributor if they wish (vacuum or mechanical advance) while keeping the D-Jet fuel injection

Yes, the aftermarket vacuum distributors can advance the timing to those numbers.............

Why, I don't know, I guess for the challange (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
