The Digijet (for 1.9l) system has an ECU forward of the left taillight, a
vacuum advance on the distributor, and an green or black plastic idle
stabilizer box mounted below and forward of the ignition coil.

The Digifant (for 2.1l) has an ECU mounted in the cabin under the rear
seat, no vacuum piping to distributor, and a prominent idle stabilizer
valve (like those on Jettas etc) plumbed into the rubber gooseneck from the
airbox, and bypassing the throttle body.

Most (maybe all?) 1.9 >> 2.1 conversions retain the 1.9 injection/ignition
system.

As you say.  If you "Reply All" the answer will go to both list and
original sender.  There are various philosophies about this.  For myself, I
generally prefer to send answers both to author and list, even if it is a
subject already well -- yea, even wearisomely -- covered.  That way 1) the
list knows that the question has been responded to and not dropped into
limbo, and 2) the author gets a personal reply in case his access to
listmail is less regular than personal mail.  YMMV.
