I hope to see as many Syncros as possible sorry for the short notice.

Hey Folks,

I have a white caravelle GL with a dud motor and good gearbox
(apparently) and managed to score a good cheap donk from a local source
parted from a wrecked caravelle GL 91 model with a dud auto gearbox.

Only problem is - there is no connection from the hall sender to the
computer - yet is starts and runs really well???

How can that be?

I thought the hall sender was an imperative part of the system and the
engine would never run without it - unless you installed a crank angle
sensor somehow in the bell-housing - which this van did not have.

Two wires exit the dizzy and are just crudely capped off.

Any light on this dark subject is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Skot
So out of the three wires coming out of the distributor only one is connected? It hasn't got points in there has it?

I checked again today and there was only 2 wires connected (potentially) - really dodgy hall sender that only had the black and the green one with the red one left out. Basically there are 2 wires on say the LHS and one wire on the RHS (only the 2 LHS wires were connected).

I would think all of these needed to send a signal.

The connections were very agricultural - using 240V electricians connections that were badly corroded.

I just replaced the hall sender with a known working original style one (not the T4Version) and the old one just fell apart upon removal. I am astonished it could run and run quite well.

Cheers,

Skot
