Been playing with fuel lately, Firstly after the mot my new 044 pump went faulty after a few miles extremely loud and pulsing fuel pressuring. Fitted the replacement but found my in tank pump was pressurizing the swirl pot so i sourced a high flowing feeder pump with a low pressure rating.
Fitting it was nearly criminal going from the bigger and fastest in tank pump to the slowest needs must! After fitting the pot seems much happier.
Next i had some goodies arrive
The new injectors!
They are the lastest bosch ev6 model 470cc @3bar So plenty of fuel if needed. I didnt choose these because they give lots of fuel or that im chasing more power or unicorns! but mainly down to their spray and efficiency.
Even better than they are standard height which means no rail modifications needed.
Heres a comparison of my current lucas red bands 380cc vs the new.
As you can see they are already going to be far far better than the current ones.
I did a bench test of spray patterns not only to satisfy my self but to see how the injectors need to be positioned in the inlet for optimal performance. I was pretty shocked at the results and if you think these lucas items are bad you should see the favored Bosch 804 greens! :O
Lucas 380cc's on the left, New bosch ev6's on the right.
All for now
