bratsrus1 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hey Scott This is Jerry, the dissy is from a 82 escort and get the coil also. That set up has 3 wires one gose to the hot side of the coil another gose to the ground side of the coil and the last one gose to the start side of the starter. I have the drawing of it and for the carb didn't you see that intake i had at the show. You don't have to weld a 4 barrel adapture on it you can weld a 2 barrel plate on it or build your own intake. If you want a copy of the wiring for the dissy i can mail it to you. Let me know Thanks Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty B Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Go for it Scott...search jet boats and Subarus (usually in NZ) EJ20 Weberred and disty fed. No room for failure when its a single engined boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pisces_0 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I have no intention of ever removing the fuel injection system from my EJ22, but this carbureted business has piqued my interest from a purely mechanical point of view. Hey Scott This is Jerry, the dissy is from a 82 escort and get the coil also. I'm also assuming you mean an '82 Ford Escort w/ 1.6L engine. Here's a pic of the distributor: Maybe I'm missing something glaringly obvious, but how does it mount to the engine and what drives the distributor?

pisces_0 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I think I see the disty now. Is that it on the rear of the right side (passenger's side) head? Doh, I knew it'd be something simple like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratsrus1 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hey Everybody This is Jerry, thats the dissy and it mounts on the right head in the back. There is a plug on the head that you remove and the dissy bolts to it. The cam drives the dissy. If you use the stock intake and install soft plugs in the injectors holes that solves that problem then mount a carb adapture on the manifold you have the set up.

TheSubaruJunkie Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Bored at work, I used my Napa Prolink account to look up Distributors for the '82 Escort. They list two. One with an attatched module, and one that has a detatched module. Napa Links: Attatched Module: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=NRD&PartNumber=482493&Description=Distributor+(Electronic+w%2fo+Module)+-+Remfd Detatched Module: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=NRD&PartNumber=482492&Description=Distributor+(Electronic+w%2fo+Module)+-+Remfd Module for distributor attached model: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=MPE&PartNumber=TP30SB&Description=Ignition+Control+Module Fender Mounted Module: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=MPE&PartNumber=TP40SB&Description=Ignition+Control+Module I think i'll look up coils too. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Here are the coils. This is the coil for the distributor mounted module: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=ECH&PartNumber=IC24&Description=Ignition+Coil Here is the connector: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=ECH&PartNumber=ICC1&Description=Ignition+Coil+Connector They list a coil for a Fender Mounted Module: http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPages/NOLMaster.aspx?PageId=470&LineCode=ECH&PartNumber=IC21&Description=Ignition+Coil However, for this application I believe you would want the distributor mounted module. Correct me if im wrong? Prices like these make it seem better to buy new (reman) than trusting a junkyard part. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
