I don’t see fuel injection for an F-134. However after going through a couple of aftermarket 1 barrels, I broke down and got a Weber 32/36.

It took some extra plumbing including a regulator and an inline gauge. It’s maybe 90% right and it runs really well unless it’s near freezing.

I’ll spin it over on a really cold night. It takes a good few minutes of coaxing and feathering the choke and throttle the first time. After that, it runs fine.

My CJ7 project has a blown engine which is why I got it for the price I did. Anyway I looked at it as an opportunity to relearn things I forgot and try to make it better.

It’s a 2 barrel 6/258. I’ve read about fuel injector kits for that model and hopefully later next year, I can have the pennies saved up for that transplant. In the meantime I do small things to it and stockpile parts when I find them on sale. Amazon is really great for that.

The Willys gets a windshield frame next month. Christmas blew that plan. My 65’s was rusted and didn’t support electric motors.

After that, buy a lift kit and parts to redo the brakes and get the steering box rebuilt. Those are on a laundry list of things I’m looking to get done in March if budget holds.

I’m just one guy in a carport with some knee and other problems so some jobs are out for me.

In-line 6’s have the worst cylinder to cylinder fuel distribution (especially during transients) and are the most likely to benefit from port injection. Electronic FI compensates for so much (temperatures, altitude, transient operation) that it’s a good deal AFAIAC.

Throttle Body Injection works more than OK for 4 bangers.
