Modifying an OEM Howell TBI system to control ignition timing FAQ
INTRODUCTION
The Howell TBI system is actually a very nice fuel injection kit. It is entirely turnkey, meaning you can install it and be driving almost immediately after you make the last connection. There is no programming required and no need to send chips and datalogs back and forth through the mail.
Unfortunately, the system does not control ignition timing unless you ask for that to be included and of course, it will cost more.
If you want to do this addition yourself, you can. You will need a willingness and capacity for learning as well as knowing how to solder, drill and work comfortably with a Windows based laptop computer.
As with any modification on your Jeep, proceed with care. Read the entire FAQ and if you are not comfortable with the job, it might be best to have someone else do it for you.
EDIT: A few pictures were added. There is already a lot of info out there on the 'net so I tried not to duplicate too much. I wanted to show a nice mounting point for the ignition module, however.
