RE: [Quantum Owners] CVH Fuel Injection

2013-01-14 Thread Ken Needham

Thanks Jim, I had mis understood what I'de read elsewhere. I thought the Weber 
one was problematic but the Hitachi was fine, both being remote.
Manifold hunting starts here1
cheers

The external idle valve were problematic and the the one bolted
directly to the manifold was Fords fixed version.

I would replace the inlet manifold with this version, they shouldn't
cost much on Ebay.

Hi Bill,

 I'm in the process of doing the same as you want to do but I do
have an almost complete engine.

I'de guess that a quick and simple way to ID an EFI is the hole
in the block on the Alternater side in front of the clutch for
the crank position sensor. The carb block did not have this hole
I believe.

I also believe that the EFI did not have a distributor but has
the EDIS system which uses the 4 outlet coil block which bolts
to the rear of the cylinder head.



I have found most of the parts including a wiring harness but I
am wrestling with the idle control valve.

I don't have one and as far as I can make out the manifold I
have requires an external valve. I just can't find a part number
to identify the correct valve. All the searching on the web
seems to only come up with valves that bolt directly onto the
manifold.

Any assistance would be welcome.



regards

Ken

  Subject: [Quantum Owners] CVH Fuel Injection

  

  Can someone please tell me how to identify
an EFi CVH engine (as intended for an Escort XR3i) if the
injectors and inlet manifolds are missing / absent ? I seem
to remember that the original Ford EFi system used a
slightly factory modified version of the engine, so if
fitting aftermarket fuel injection to a previously
carburated version of this marque extra parts were needed to
make the whole function. I want to fit an EFi system to my
CVH powered saloon so that I can run it on LPG and to this
end have looked for and  been offered an as new CVH EFi
engine (without the injection system, of course, but
complete in other ways). I simply want to know how to
satisfy myself that it is what the guy says it is, as I'm
not sure he knows one way or the other.
