Now by golly I'm gonna find out 1st hand about pre-magnum TBI...

Whenever the subject of swapping 89-91 TBI onto a 318 comes up on here, there seems to be alot of people who say:

":puke:Nooo! Stay away! Verboten! It's Junk!:puke:"

And a few who say it works just fine, as long as you aren't looking for more perfomance than a stock 318-2.

I've considered this swap a few times but never got around to trying it.
A Magnum engine is better, of course; but the TBI setup has a couple of advantages. You can swap it onto an older 318; and (the big one for me) it's available from pick-and-pull for about the cost of its weight in dog poop.

I'm gonna find out now, just bought a '91 W150 318 for my daily! I've had the truck about a week and i like it so far- I figure the true test of it's mettle (metal?) will come this fall with the cool, wet weather that seems to give carbs fits with low speed driveability problems.
Wish me luck!
