LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 i spent the day in the workshop today...i re-kitted my LPG regulator(which really needed some love) and replaced my EJ carbureted intake manifold with an injected manifold so i could fit my new Constant Velocity LPG mixer. some pretty pic's its running ok at the moment altho a bit lean...lol lean is ok on LPG now i just need install a wideband O2 setup so i can tune it to perfection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 its not EFI...its got a dizzy off an early JDM carby EJ18 and my new CV mixer fitted in front of the throttle body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecarguy Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 how did you get the dizzy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 How easy was that to set up? I've got a rig with 2, 40 year old carbs and a Propane conversion would be a lot easier than trying to make them happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 how did you get the dizzy? easy..i live in new zealand....we got alot of JDM DL 1.8 legacys that are carb and dizzy from factory How easy was that to set up? I've got a rig with 2, 40 year old carbs and a Propane conversion would be a lot easier than trying to make them happy. fitting propane is literally fitting a complete second fuel system...not hard to do right if you keep in mind that a leak in the finished system would come in the category "Very Uncool" PM me if you want the high, the low and the 'i shouldn't have done that' points of fitting an LPG conversion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecarguy Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 would you mind shipping one here to the states? Of course ill pay for shipping and the part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 would you mind shipping one here to the states? Of course ill pay for shipping and the part. i can get a dizzy no problem....what are you going to use as a intake manifold? a standard EFI intake has no coolant galleries to heat the intake to vapourize the fuel coming from any carb that you use....which means its going run like a sack (talking from experience) as soon as the air temperature changes from what it was when you tuned it...like the next morning. shipping a dizzy isn't too costly....shipping a manifold is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need something that can see which cylinder is currently firing for a project... There are two types of EJ dizzy...the type i use is a 'real' dizzy...springs,flyweights vac advance etc.... there is another type used on the SPFI EJ18 that is an optical type job....it looks like a dizzy cap mounted directly onto the rear of the right hand head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
