My 86 VW Golf has a totally mechanical continuous injection system (CIS
system). No electronics to go bad. No computer and no O2 sensor. Is set
up for 4 port injectors. They run a continuous spray! All control of the
fuel is done by an air flow lever adjusting the pressure to the
injectors. And dependable? 165,000 mile so far and still going.
Maybe 2 injectors in each intake port and since it was designed for a
1700cc engine maybe not too much fiddling to get it right.
