Fixkick,
I was reading your website talking about the two different 16v engines. Based on my VIN above and photo of the engine, do I have a TPI? I haven't seen a multiport engine.
thanks,
John
Your Text Describes the two engines:
The 16v G16B motor was introduced by Suzuki in the USA in 1992, For the Geo Tracker, that was the same year, for this 16 valve head, as an option.
The 16v is a tighter smog engine, (has dry runners) that is, it runs cleaner with MPI injection. and 15 more HP with 16 valves sucking air. (The Cailf. Air Reseach board banned the 8v in 94')
The TBI engine runs a wet intake, manifold and runs poorly under some conditions. (MPI was the cure, and much later direct injection) The MPI has vastly better cylinder by cylinder AFR mixes, and are equal.
