Man,it`s not about who is wrong I jast must try to belive.I am not going (as I know that isn`t much) to NOT starving the inlet,as fact I`ll use almost stock CSd or KSB,it is same task as you do by lever(pull) or by electrik by cut off el.valve.As I see only diferent is I`ll use new plate (WITHOUT el valve) and put ball valve,and connect small tube and rest.Of corse with el. cut off valve its just ON and OFF mode,ball valve made adjustable.
But what if he sets it up so that valve off equals over pressured thus over timed engine. Say pound it down until the pressure is at 80 psi at idle for instance. That would replace valve off = normal to be =advanced timing. Now throw in the ball valve and slowly close it off. Now we have less advance or maybe even normal advance and the ability to go less advance.Am I thinking this correctly? I see the pressure differences in the different fuels I run and I think I know why he wants this ability. The only thing I question is flow. Not enough fuel will reduce speed and power. Not good at the speeds I run but might do OK at city speeds.
Hey you're talking to a Soil Scientist bub. You mean WEAR not EROSION. Erosion is a soil and water thing. Mechanical part to part with lack of lube is different. Just so we have our terminology straight.
Cavitation and soil erosion are two veeeery different things, just saying. Cavitation deals with a solid traveling through a liquid at such high speeds that it creates a vacuum in its wake strong enough to cause a vapor bubble--like a vapor trail off an airplane wingtip, only in water instead of air. Not the same thing as water dripping onto soil or rocks over a period of days/years/millenia. Both can be very destructive, but for very different reasons.
New diesels are getting up there 20,000 psi or so...I read it somewhere.
