Really Dumb Question
Hey all,
I have a question for the wise. Will a 1.7L Dizzy work on a 2.0 liter? The system has the default F.I and will stay that way. I seems to hookup ok. Thoughts, prayers?...... Thanks! Steve |

Yup! I had asked this question not too long ago as well. The only difference is the advance curve. Check out http://mail.dgi.net/914/tech/distrib.html for the particulars. I am/was running a 73 1.7 dizzy on a 2.0 and it worked fine, but I think mine is worn (still worked pretty good).
Good Luck -Mike |

You might have to put your 1.7L vacuum advance unit on the 2.0L distributor. You can read the recent Worn Distributor thread about my struggles with a 1.7L dizzy on my 2.0L car.
One good thing about the 1.7 is you can get one of those Cardone rebuilt units for cheap. |

THANK YOU!
Fellas,
I do appreciate your quick response!. I was hoping like #$%% that I didn't have to buy another dizzy. I have a new Crane Fireball XR700 E.I in the puppy. They work fantastic, but are a pain in the caboose to put in and tear out. Again Thank you, Steve |
