I have DJ-code in my Westy. Internally the engine has high-compression pistons. The timing is set to 10 BTDC. Externally the distributor is unique and so is the ECU and Digijet FI system. I think the starter has a different part # too. Premium fuel is required because of high compression. On 2/27/09, Zoran Mladen <zmaninco@yahoo.com> wrote: > Yes!
