More power for your 1.6TD

[Deedko]

at first I need to buy boost gauge, and egt gauge to see what's happening. I only modify boost pin and starwheel more up, lo the left side and boost pin to the full fuel delivery.

[Deedko]

I'm sory but I really don't understand exacly how to get fuel economy, I spin diafragm to extra fuel and starwheel more up, what else should I do to get fuel economy, and that car have acceleration.

now I have fuel usage 7l/100km

thanks again

You can't have acceleration AND fuel economy. You have to pick one.

[Deedko]

what should be the highest fuel usage (l/100km), with fixing fuel

True. 1,6TD, 170hp/7seconds 0-100kmh and 5,8 litres/100km

[Deedko]

this is great, I only rotate boost pin too max fueling and put starwhell more down and I have 7l/100km, how to make smaller usage of fuel

Hi, I'm Thor and I'm new here!

I bought a caravelle with a 1.6TD a few weeks ago, and I'm planning to start messing with it soon. I won't be doing anything extreme (yet). After looking around a little i have a couple of questins.

This is what my engine looks like:

I cant seem to find the boost aneroid? maybe I've misunderstood something here, but shouldn't it be on top of the pump?

and here is the max fuel screw in case someone couldn't find it, and if you are too dumb to find the idle adjust on a 1.6 pump, you should not be doing any of this stuff haha

Anyone have a pic to illustrate that on a JX? I think I have located them but I'm a little reluctant to start messing with it until I'm shure.

Thor it doesnt look like you pump has an lda (where the boost aneroid is). Looks like a normally aspirated pump hence, no aneroid pin.

[Nignick09]

i agree wholeheartedly with both your ideas, cant see what else you could clean up besides that...

go for it

[theman53]

so if I have too much on fuel boost I just rotate the pin so the steep side faces the tab on the pump that rides on it. AND raise the spring pressure of the star wheel. My on boost fuel just won't stop climbin no matter what.

[jabcok20]

you must grind off pin something about 50% part up. So when you have more boost violently then you get a lot of fuel , but if you have shy boost you get shy fuel... But you must have gov mode with it and preferably timing mode.
sorry for my English

I've done a lot of mods mentioned in this thread, and i've now gotten to the subject "injectors". Mine are worn, so i would like to replace the nozzels. Preferable by some upgraded versions. I've heard some stories about Mercedes Benz nozzles from a 300D, but i can't exactly find which ones. Can anyone tell me which nozzles are the best nozzles for tuning?

[1outof5]

from what I have read, no experience with these injector nozzles because my rebuilt standard ones (155b) are sufficient  ), the spray patern is not right for our typical prechambers. If some here can get more than 150cv with the standard injectors why change for potentially worse?

the mercedes nozzles are not well suited for our pre-chambers.. and there is really no good performance gains..

FWIW, the guys on the Merc boards run VW injectors.. lol.

i would just run a set of GTD nozzles, or GM nozzles.. Owen ran a set of those, they worked good from what i can remember..
