Title: Injection pump woes
Post by: CaddyTD on August 23, 2004, 01:43:10 am
I have successfully swapped the arrenoid (sp) from the TD pump to a known good N/A pump and was wondering if there are any adjustments that I need to make?  What is the adjuster on the front of the pump for with a pinched collar?  Do I need to adjust that at all?  The reason I ask is that when you swap the tops, you swap that adjuster as well and the adjustment will not be correct.  

Thanks!

there are other changes inside the pump to make that u can't do
unless u take the pump apart.

Yes.  I am.  I know you can use just the regular pump but wanted the extra fuel during higher boost and my turbo pump had problems.
