There's a Solex on my 2002 right now, today. It's getting a little long in the tooth for daily commuting but I take it work at least once a week. Runs great, no diagnostic cable needed. The manual choke is a great theft-prevention system too. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

The original could be ordered with the Solex, Weber, or an arcane Bosch fuel injection system. The Solex variant was the cheapest, so that's what I got. I've been saying I am going to upgrade it for the past 25 years, but other things have been higher priorities. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

Fuel injection the opposite (and yes, there are fuel injected engines with manual enrichment circuits in current production, but maybe not on cars). [1] By this I mean while driving - I am aware that one can adjust/modify how these operate, but that is another thing altogether. -- T0m $herm@n |

Or were some of the parts Bosch built? I've never driven a 2002tii but I certainly would enjoy the opportunity. nate -- replace "roosters" with "cox" to reply. http://members.cox.net/njnagel |
