1.6 IDI Timing Advance Mod.

So your running a NA engine correct?

130 bar injectors?
What is your timing set at?

I have a fresh 1.6 TD with a K24 with 3" turbo back.
injectors are huge but set @ 139 bar
Timing set at about .95 and I have a 10mm pump.

It doesn't seem to matter much how I drive it (still new only 2 tanks) I'm getting a solid 40 mph.
Also I'm running an ACH trans with a 3.67 R&P and a .75 fifth gear.
I run @ 75 both ways.

I'm wanting to set the timing @ 1.0mm and get some smaller injectors (stock) to see if that will help bump me up a tad.

I'm also thinking if I fix the cruise I will get better, I have a heavy foot, love seing the smoke and hearing the turbo wind up.

yup, 1.6NA, 130bar injectors with maybe 16,000 miles on 'em, my timing was at .97 or .98...can't remember, and I fixed my internal IP pressure and that made the timing advance much more effective and then it rattled way to much so I retarded the timing as much as possible w/o it shaking. That made it run quieter, less smoke :cry: but the power stayed about the same. My tranny is a FN, 3.89 final and .71 5th.
Maybe unhook your LDA hose and see what your mileage does, of course, then you would have an eco diesel :roll: How big of improvement was your 10mm plunger over the 9mm? I'm building an IP and wanna get more power w/o hurtin' mileage, and I'm thinkin' of getting a 10mm pump.
