I'm looking for information on the carb thats on my 1984 ranger 2wd 2.3l

It has several electrical connections and I'm not sure how much of a computer this truck has on it. I was wondering what sort of control a computer has of the carb... When I got the truck all of the egr and smog pump stuff had been removed or plugged so I'm not sure what the computer can still do. I was wondering what the solenoid on the side of the carb does.

Thanks

For the most part all the computer did was adjust/control the fuel mixture at idle.

I've got a manually adjustable replacement for that carb. It's the same 'cept it has an idle jet screw. I had it rebuilt a 2 years ago. I pulled the engine last summer and replaced it with a turbo engine. I pulled the carb, dumped the fuel out of it and put it in a ziplock bag. If your interested in it, email me at dxgxlongx52x@msn.com. drop the x's

yeah i sorta figured it didn't do much, most of the computer stuff is screwed up anyway i'd like to go back to a simpler carb... not sure if want any of the carter yfa carbs that were made for it though, several people around here think there problems.

Has anyone tried one of the Holley 2 carbs that autozone and some of those places sell for this truck.


Thanks
