 Single point injection Does anyone know if there is a single point injection kit for the 2cv? Rather than the megasquirt option. How much can you dump from the engine by doing it? ie carb etc.
Thanks.

Re: Single point injection I'm no mechanic by any stretch of the imagination, but I doubt single point injection would improve on a tried and tested design, stick with what you've got.

Re: Single point injection you could put a webber carb on but say good bye to your mpg and hello to your gpm.

Re: Single point injection I seem to recall that 123Ignition were developing an SPI kit, although I can't think of any off the shelf kits on the market at the moment.
What are you hoping to achieve by fitting it? More power, more mpg, more reliability?

Re: Single point injection Better mpg I suppose, and not needing to replace a very very worn carb.
I was going to go for the reconditioned carb and 123 electronic ignition, but if injection was available I would have thought about it.

Re: Single point injection Neil wrote: If you're serious you could have a chat with Geoff... Yes its possible, but starting to be a custom job really. Perhaps I will get the carb sorted and the 123 put in and wait for sometime in the future for an off the shelf injection kit when someone decides to make one.

Re: Single point injection Russell wrote: I seem to recall that 123Ignition were developing an SPI kit Correct. They named it 123/carb (what's in a name). Can't find anything about it anymore. Looks like they stopped this project, although they had one mounted on a enginge:   On their site I also can't find anything about it...
