FINALLY...someone brought this up. It needs to be addressed. Looks like it is just 3 wires coming out of the dizzy body and I am not aware of any available male terminals or housing that are an easy mate to the female terminals on the standard FI harness.
SOL. Best technical solution is to find a weatherproof 2 pole quick disconnect connector, male/female and mount it to the harness/dizzy. Wire cutting is involved. Not pretty but it will certainly function and be durable. I would also wrap any exposed wires from the dizzy in heat shrink tube (the dizzy should have had this from the factory). Attached image(s) |

My 123 dizzy for a D jet trigger points had the fittings on the end of the wires so they will plug into the harness plug, Plugged them in without any problems, been running in the car for over a year now without any problems.

So it comes with 2 male pins installed on the wires?

It sounds like it, unless Jim had someone else install it, and they did a mod? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
If concerned about going back to the original distributor on the side of the road, splice parallel wires and an additional connector for the 123 before hand, and the OEM connector will still be intact - ready for use if needed ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Can you get the grey somewhere Jeff? |

Anyone have the advance curve for the Bosch 050 distributor? Wonder if one of the preset curves on the 4R is close to that... Think I'll order the 4R with 16 curve choices- don't figure I'm computer savvy enough to program the thing myself! Hell, I'm driving a 46 year old car!! The 050 isn't even a curve. It is pretty linear, which gives you less of an advance bump at low RPM than most of the stock Bosh units. The 009 is also plotted here. |

Looks like these are for the 1.7.
039 part prefix is for the 2.0 from Brad Anders site. Maybe they don't exist? Given the advance noted they should be able to be plotted. The read on the retard function is interesting on over run and part load. |

Those are not 914 Part numbers. Maybe I made the classic mistake of assuming that "050" was the aftermarket Bosh distributor often used in VW engines when "SKL1" asked. The "009" is also the Bosh part number of the common aftermarket distributor. The "022" and "031" are OEM distributors for Porsche 912. The "0012" is a customized "009" that Benton Performance developed. This was posted specifically in response to the "050" curve request. Apologies if I misunderstood. |

Thanks for info Morrie- that should help with selecting which of the 16 curves I'll use when I get the 4R.

That DM-031 curve looks much more like something my engine would appreciate over the 050 curve.

Thanks for putting the group buy together. Just ordered. I was about to go through my 2.0 djet dizzy. Having this and eliminating points/pertronix, trigger points, vacuum port, advance plate and braided wire maintenance, nice and new... Is going to eliminate a lot of potential headaches!

Found the manual. Think these are them. Those are the numbers I used for the table posted elsewhere. There are more of those in later in the manual for the 2.0 parts. They have a whole separate section for the 2.0 engine. --DD Ah...ok Dave thanks. I.ll look for those. Evidently it was digitized. |
