Hi John
A friend of mine locally has fitted a Sherpa diesel to his Dolomite, says he
had no trouble with the installation but a fair bit with the exhaust system.
Not my idea of a fun car to drive, (you can hear it before you see it) but
whatever rings your bells! I like the notion that someone on the list came
up with of fitting a servo in place of the bellows on the Lucas unit and
driving it with a computer.Who was that? I have a spare metering unit now
and would like to try it, the mechanical side would be a dodle, but I
wouldn't have the first idea about the drive circuit, software etc.
Any one got the other half of the requisite skills like to have a go, would
it be driven by vacuum sensing as original or potentiometers and sensors on
the throttle and crank etc!
Graham,

1975 Toledo in restoration!
