I have an EL wagon and have the opportunity to aquire an AU series 1 with factory gas. I know the motors are basically the same so the gas system should swap over ok but will the gas tanks in the wheel well of the AU fit into the EL wheel well. Also, will the EL ECU be ok or will I need a different one and what other bits might I need to finish the job like the switches and guages. Can I just use the AU ones or will I need to get EL factory gas switches and guages?
Any advise will be most appreciated. Cheers Bushbasher |

gas doesnt use the ECU as it runs similar to what a carby motor would run like, fuel into the intake manifold. and most the other stuff will bolt up, not 100% on the tank but im sure it wouldnt take much to get it to bolt down

Dont waist your time..
If the car you are looking at has factory gas ( tickford gas) then there is realy no parts you can use if the car is a AU sedan and you want to put it into a EL sedan then yes the gas tank will Fit. the factory gas system is wired into the cars wireing loom and is a REAL Pain to try and bypass. Now if the AU has gas fitted aftermarket but still by ford it should be a IMPCO kit .. and if it is then yes it will all be good to use. |
