carb/computor connection question


Recommended Posts

my 86 4wdr has the stock carb on it and I would like to use another carb from a 2wdr...I have been told that the 2wdr carbs are computor controlled and would not work...is there any practical way to over this problem so that the 2wdr.carb can operate without the aid of the computor, of which I don't have

I do not know that all 2WD have feedback carbs, but I know that my 82 4WDs do have feedback carbs. Are you sure that your car is non-feedback? The difference on the carbs themselves should be minimal. You might want to check the following thread (assuming that this is not where you got that 4WD/2WD thing):

I forgot to include the year of the carbs...for 85-86 1.8 4wdr.are Not controlled by the computor while for the same years for 2wdr do have computor control..this was according to a rebuilder of these carbs...is there any way to make the computor dependent carb work without the computor..some have 4 prongs while others have 3 prongs for the electrical connection..Thanks
