NOT changing the lh2.0 to lh2.2, but fixing the lh2.0 200 1983

Hi John,

Maybe I was a little intense in my use of the word "kludge" under the dash an LH2.2 conversion would need, especially as I haven't done one. But I was assuming the conversion would use the 2.2 engine harness, hoping it would be an updated one or the 88. Probably it would just involve a few butt splices getting the pump and switched wires spliced in at the new single relay socket. Being biased against the conversion is just an expression of my personal habit to try to restore things to the way they were before they broke.

Our 83 had the Bosch with the round plug. I only got to see those white caps in the yards and began to view them as ugly. Our 84 had the later, rectangular connector. Can you think of any reason the 85-88 distributor would not work here?
