He was amazed how much better the throttle felt! RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - Tom - 04-07-2014 Gov mod it... RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - turbomad - 04-07-2014 Just removed the damper feels so much better noticed the car is hunting a little so I have ordered a fuel filter hopefully that solves it RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - turbomad - 08-07-2014 Is it safe to run 100% veg as I have been I was gonna wait till it gets colder then start premix RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - pugmanxud - 09-07-2014 I am... RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - turbomad - 09-07-2014 Ok not so bad then changed the filter yesterday runs perfect when warm just initial start up its a but lumpy RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - bashbarnard - 09-07-2014 Its veg initial start up is always like that on veg RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - r3k1355 - 09-07-2014 Yep thats how veg is, you can try and adjust the pump timing a little that can help, some people fiddle with the cold idle speed screw and have it run abit faster on cold idle to compensate. Fitting larger diameter fuel lines is supposed to help as well, but if it's just an old beater most people just leave it alone and ignore it - it's not doing any harm. RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - Chris_90 - 10-07-2014 As guys have said lumpy idle is very common with veg till it warms up. Keep a few spare fuel filters in boot with tools ti change just incase why your out and about it blocks up ![]() RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - nominous - 11-07-2014 Extend your glow plug run time. It will make quite a difference. If you can trust yourself, bridge the relay with a nice big fat red lit switch somewhere right in your line of sight and turn it off after a few minutes.

Never thought of this might do it and somehow wire it into the radio control stalk on steering colum RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - silverzx - 11-07-2014 Leave glow plugs on cycle for a few minutes!? Are you crazy? ![]() RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - bashbarnard - 11-07-2014 I admit a few.mins seem a bit long. But being on a tad longer would surely help RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - Piggy - 11-07-2014 A bit longer ...but minutes and your asking for trouble! RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - Ruan - 11-07-2014 Lol yeah you'll destroy the plugs if you leave them on for too long! Glowplugs won't improve the running really - you probably need more injection timing which will help counter the ignition delay from mega cold gloopy veg. The hunting is purely due to the governor struggling to control engine speed due to the thickness of the fuel and the internal vane pump struggling to get fuel into the pump case and maintain the pressure. RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - turbomad - 11-07-2014 The car runs fine when hot so I just ket it idle for a bit RE: What pump do I have want to run cooking oil - nominous - 21-07-2014 (11-07-2014, 10:48 PM)Ruan Wrote: Lol yeah you'll destroy the plugs if you leave them on for too long!They are internally temperature controlled. It's a service item. My last set for a VW were 15quid. So who cares ? ![]() Quote:Glowplugs won't improve the running really - you probably need more injection timing which will help counter the ignition delay from mega cold gloopy veg. Bear in mind on newer diesels that glow plug run time is extended depending on temperature. In a direct injection that's making a difference I can assure you from my own experiences on IDI that it makes quite a difference. That the difference out weights the cost of a set of plugs perhaps once a year if unlucky. Quote:The hunting is purely due to the governor struggling to control engine speed due to the thickness of the fuel and the internal vane pump struggling to get fuel into the pump case and maintain the pressure. Well that's one issue, but turning the plugs on is clearly heating things up and improving combustion until said combustion has warmed the chamber up enough that they are no longer needed. |
