1984 Landrover HIF44E SU carbs

Post by kiwi303 »

Anyone got a manual with the electric choke details for a HIF44E?

The Burlen Fuel System website ate the tag number on one (FZX1454R, the others a small scrap of ali caught under the screw) and spat up that it's a 1984 Landrover 3.5 V8 carb and since they came as a matching set and look externally identical, the other is probably one too.

The problem I have is there is a little housing on the side with a 5 pin socket on it, and the "E" on the end of the HIF44E appears to mean Electric Choke or summat like. The current needle is BFJ.

Does anyone know what pin relates to what wire location? one is resumably ground, one probably goes to a 12V source that is on when the key is and a third is likely to go to a coil or other voltage source that only runs when the engine is turning...

But which is which? and how do I hook them up to a manual choked car? They're to be installed on a 2.0L toyota 3Y and be re-needled to either BAL or BDM which is what the TR7 2.0L motor uses in their 1.75" SUs


Alternatively, If someone wants them, for 60 quid plus shipping someone on here can have them and I'll just buy that matched HS4 1.5" linked set off a 2L triumph that just popped up on Trademe. ;)

AH... thanks for that, so it looks like I need to obtain a pair of temp sensors (engine and ambient) and a ECU for them from a SD1.

Hopefully cheaply :P the HS4 set is lookign more attractive for the Hilux now :P
