Scooby conversion

You own a camper and have the bad luck to own one with a knackered T4 engine. And the FI system's AFM has probably worn out too. (I still believe it would be possible to provide a mapping from a modern MAF sensor to the AFM input on the old ECU..)

A Subaru conversion is a good swap.

If you have a knackered T1 engine then the advantages are less clear as you can get an all new one for less than the price of a T4 recon.

 

I made a small start tonight.

Battery disconnected.

Carb is off. Dizzy out to be sent off tomorrow. Some tin ware removed. Basically items from the top half of the engine. Gaps filled with rags.

Will do some pics next time.

 

where you sending the dissy (and why?)

 

oh yeh..for the 250 I will take it out too!

 

Sold it. It was a dogs danglies 123.

 

will need to knock 20 quid off my offer!

 

Did you say add £20... my eyesight is getting poor in my old age

 

Aye thats an idea. Every time you take something off it i make you a higher offer.

 

So as of last night I got this far



And as of tonight I didn’t get much further.

 

It's only 4 bolts, get it whipped out

 

Just stripping bits off to make it easier to drop it

 

I have a feeling the dipstick for the gearbox May get in the way

 

Pah, I dropped mine with everything on. Easy peasy.

 

Yes, you need to remove it , big nut at the bottom end , drain the oil first

 

No drain hole so guess let it out once that’s off.

Need to get a decent jack next.

 

Put a drain under the tube at the bottom, nuts 30mm ish

 

Good question, but alas, no answer. I wonder why?

 

Good luck with the engine swap.

 

Looks like one of them expensive rebuilt type 4 engines too..
