<x-charset iso-8859-1>Does anyone have experience with converting from fuel injection to a carburetor system? I recently purchased the Progressive DFEV Deluxe 2 Barrel kit w/ a Weber 32/36 DFEV 2 barrel electric choke carb. Unfortunately, I didn't even think about the fuel pump. The instructions for installation call for a new fuel pump in the 3-8 p.s.i. range (Part No. 412010) along with a pressure regulator (Part No. 9102) to be set at 1 1/2-2 p.s.i. When I called the import auto parts store where I've gotten all my other VW parts, the man on the phone said a mechanical fuel pump could not be put on the fuel injected T3, is that right? Would I need to use one of those electric fuel pumps? What about the fuel regulator? I noticed that those electric fuel pumps come in variable pressures with the lowest one I could find being around 1 1/2-3 1/2, would this work without a pressure regulator? Another question is the distributor...The distributor for the F.I. has extra contacts on it to relay to the computer when to fire the injectors...is that right? Will I need a different distributor cap or will the one I have work? Its brand new and I'd rather not replace it if I don't need to, but I can. Any suggestions on the best way to set this up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
