    I just took delivery of the B28E, and it appears to be stored indoors at least, albeit somewhat grimy.

    But to my disappointment the fuel distributor is missing.

    Lambda ECU: by frequency valve you mean the little device on the pass side valve cover? I guess this whole setup is missing on the non-catalytic converter B28E.

    And, yeah. For once I should strive to use the proper chemicals for sealing. In earlier projects I’ve just used generic gasket silicone, with mixed results.
