"Dizzy" is probably "distributor", and your 944 has one. It's the component that fires the spark plugs in order.

"CIS" is the Bosch "continuous injection system", which the 924 has, but you car does not. You have Bosch "Motronic".

"dizzy fuel" is the CIS fuel distributor that receives and regulates the amount of fuel to each injector.
CIS means the injectors flow fuel constantly and distributor controls the amount of fuel flow.

Van is correct that these terms and components do not apply to the 944.
The 944 uses an electronic fuel injection system, whereas CIS is an entirely mechanical system.
