is that yours on youutbe with the deiselmekhin pump on it?
they are a real good engine, been playing about with bosch ve pumps, changing internals and govenors so figured it was time i started playing with an inline pump
yea, this one, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GITi-n9ZTU
you will have the electronic inline pump, i managed 368bhp on it with my diy pump with 7.5mm plungers. rpm was a restriction at 5500rpm
you can add a potentiometer to pump wiring harness for more fuel on standard pump.
yeh that car is insane, i take it the pumps are semi ecu controlled, bit like a 406, still manual throttle etc, but advance and governors are ecu controlled, as there doesn't seem to be many wires near the pump itself, also doesn't appear to have a maf sensor, its usaly beside the airbox but mines just pipe
haven't looked to closely in below the bonnet but, will get a better look tomorrow after work
hi,
throttle and governor all controlled by ecu, the rack is pushed forward with a solenoid all controlled by pwm signals from ecu.
your pump will have 6mm elements but if you change to standard old skool mechanical pump it only has 5.5mm elements.
i see, will have to figure out where to put a potentiometer onto it
got the back axle striped, passenger side came apart no bother, drivers side has 2 bolts stuck in bushes, going to try get them out tomorrow night, and get two bushes replaced for the bottom arms as they are completely shot on both sides
and then she is ready for the road
well i have finaly got abit of decent work done to the car
rear subframe is finaly ready to be bolted back onto the car, couple new arms and bushes, 4 new main subframe bushes and the diff has been welded, some night this week when its dry gonna get it into her and see how she goes
have also bought a hydraulic handbrake and a set of wheels from a mate, hoping to have it on the road this weekend
well im glad to say its all back together and running. Had bother with it not starting, wasnt picking diesel up from the tank, turn'd out to be a dodgy o-ring on the pre filter. New o-ring and its starting and running like a new car again.
had it out a test drive, driving 100%, few wee things need looked at, brakes after sitting for 6 months wudnt really stop you in a hurry, and need to connect up the handbrake, other than that she is going well
getting it took of temp insurance and swapping it with the toledo, cant afford to keep both
and lastly a photo of it beside the brothers b, project

have done abit more work but most of it is just fixing wee annoying bits and pieces, done away with the SLS system in it, as it was rock hard at the back, and when i went to lower it, it always raised itself back up again. Also have 5 new heater plugs coming as 2 of them have decided to pack up this week
on other news, got new wheels and lowered it, needs two rear droplinks then i can start on getting it ready for a drift day
