It will look the same but run better and hopefully be more economical with the much finer control of the fuel mix ratio .

If you retained the original D jet injectors they are grossly oversized for the size of the engine. They flow about 650 ml /min @ 3 Bar. Any 240 / 740 / 940 Motronic system will be set up for smaller injectors so you will be delivering way too much fuel with the PW values in the base fuel maps, likely beyond the correction limits for the closed loop system. You would need to use the native fuel injectors from the original B230 application which then gets you into a major re engineering effort for injector holders and plumbing on the B20E/F. The other factor to consider is that the cranking, starting and warm up factors are all set up for the particular intake configuration on the B230 which is completely unlike the B20E. The B20E/F injectors sit in the head right above the valve. The B230 injectors are farther away in the intake manifold. We also have the iron versus aluminum head thing which affects warm up enrichment. I am going to go out on what is a fairly strong limb and offer the opinion that transplanting a Motronic system from a B230 to the B20E/F engine is going to result in an engine that runs worse than it does on the D jet system, if at all. If you want to go to a more current EFI system than the D jet, then go all the way to a stand along EFI that is configurable through a connection to a lap top. There are lots and lots of systems to choose from. Last edited by 142 Guy; Jul 9th, 2021 at 19:04. |

Gentlemen,
Courtesy of the (VAST) knowledge freely and unreservedly offered here, I have decided to go forward with a Megasquirt conversion. I do not think it is tenable to support 50-year-old defunct electrics into their 60th or 70th years. Carbs - Yes, but a pile of valves, capacitors, and solder, held together by prayers? - nope, not for a reliable daily runner. A coddled garaged weekender, perhaps. And no modern Toyotas, dammit! I will not go quietly into the night! |

If you are going to try the conversion yourself, make sure you read the megamanual at least a couple of times. I would recommend that you install the MSExtra firmware rather than original B&G firmware so that part of the manual that deals with the firmware and specific configuration and tuning details is not relevant. However, the intro to how the code works and the pointers on wiring and fuel supply are valuable.
http://www.megamanual.com/mtabcon.htm After you are familiar with the basics of the system, you can then dig into the MSExtra hardware and set up manuals which are more specific to MSExtra implementaitons. https://www.msextra.com/manuals/ |
