Yes, but you'd need some form of microcontroller and a stepper motor as brent has identified

I should clarify...

Chop chop, it'll save me a world of pain!! lol

I've also been thinking about it for my bike carb implementation on an 89 8valve VW engine. I'm still exploring the relationship between engine temperature and emissions (ie Lambda) as this would be the another answer to controlling choke rather than rely on temperature alone. There is of course the...

Excellent, easy access for the Euro-zone

I hear a two litre conversion on a Golf is the way forward ;) Sorry to hear about the cash flow matey... wives tend to do that, 'specially on the initial "Home Making" front, I personally was skint for years after we got married (ended up having to keep resurecting a Metro (great car and g...

WooooHOOOOOOOOOo... and WOW and thank you!

Lost for words for certain, I thought there were better entries than mine.

Congrats Dr Occa, yours was my favourite for sure, but the standard was very high!

Have you tried starting it in limp home mode? ie with the MJLJ disconnected?

Intriguing... then head hit into overtime and use it as a kind of autochoke?

If it's programmable on specified inputs? Versatility is King!

It's like waiting for exam results

Nice setup!! I may have to blag your MAP off you as a start point on mine. Spec is slightly different though, but at least it should be a good start :D I'm going 2E bottom end (so 2 litre) with port and flowed 1.8head, carbs off an ZX9R and custom inlet manifold, 4-2-1 header and sticking with 2&quo...

They are annoying, lol

Least you got that bit sorted

So how would the limp home mode of the EDIS work - or in this case can I not have both? You do have both. If you installed the EDIS and nothing else (ie MJLJ and Rev Limiter) the car will run in Limp Home mode. All, and I SERIOUSLY understate it here, the MJLJ is doing is optimising WHEN the EDIS p...

Wicked motor mate!! It is a very popular engine for conversions here because of the availability of rear wheel drive gearboxes from other earlier Fords that almost bolt staight on. :D Especially in the kit car market!! Personal favourite has to be the MEV Rocket or Sonic7 http://www.madabout-kitcars...
