can I replace single injection unit on uno 45 with a carb?
The question would be why?;)
Has it got a cat on it as it will probably fail emissions if you do it, plus it depends what other electrical sensors etc. are on the vehicle.
Don't get me wrong, I much preferred the simplicity of carbs and contact points, they could be fixed at the side of the road for peanuts, unlike modern vehicles that need a recovery vehicle if the break down and a fat wallet!:(

Hi, thank you for your reply, I only asked about the swop to carb, because not much luck with the single point injection. It started with Uno stalling when stopping, so I took note of advice from Forum and changed a few things temperature sensor etc. but didn't cure the problem. Then made a mistake and gave it to a friend to look at, and he mistakenly removed the cover on the side of injection unit with the tamperproof screws. From that point the unit was knackered, car would start but rev like mad. So I managed to get a second unit from Poland, fitted it but just can't get the car to start. I don't want to scrap it, It's only done 30k. and in really good condition, it's a 1108 cc 1992 IES. I would be really grateful if you could give me a few pointers. Cheers

I see.:(
In fairness I don't know much about them, early 90s was when manufacturers were changing from carbs to injection and cats and in a lot of cases not ideally. Although the Fiats I had around that time were fairly trouble free if you didn't count rusting.;)
All I can find from a technical point is these photos if they relate to your model.
In the first photo I think yours is in the right hand column 156 c046 engine series?
