A B20 E is fuel injected, has an extra set of points to trigger the injectors. And is vacuum retard. Not a suitable replacement.

Good evening all apologies for hijacking this thread but some of you very knowledgeable folks may be able to assist me I have a B20E engine in my Amazon on DCOE’s and have just had it on the rolling road but we were unable to gain enough ignition advance and the guy running the dyno said the ignition timing was all over the place, so firstly could my dizzy be worn out and what should I be looking out for and as it’s a B20E unit will that have limited mechanical advance capability? The vac retard isn’t connected by the way!

http://www.sw-em.com/Volvo%20Ignitio...CA%20Servicing Sticking or broken springs in the distributor could cause your problem. Finding a source to rebuild your Bosch distributor might be worthwhile. Classic VW distributors are similar so you might find a classic VW place that could help you. Or replace it entirely with a 123 Distributor. Yours is somewhat unique as I assume you’re running the D-Jet FI distributor but running carbs. Might require a different advance curve with carbs. Don’t know. 123 Distributors can be programmed with many different curves. Let us know how you make out, and good luck. |

And you’d probably get a wider audience if you start a new thread in the general section. The wants section is typically just for obtaining parts.
EDIT: I now see that you’ve done that and received numerous replies. Last edited by c1800; Dec 10th, 2022 at 18:57. |
