Setting pump lift with DTi

After all that working out i did too

i can see how it could be worked out ,but in reallity all tdis vary quite a bit its not a precise engine ,but a great easy rebuildable design ,im just pointing out drill bits might not be so heath robinson as you suggest taking all things into account

Yep think he's missing the point mate: ALL pumps will be very slightly different/will have different degrees of wear internally/engine conditions are slightly different/camshaft and valve train wear will be different etc............

How is he going to take any of that into account using his DTI gadget???

aye but you did put up some impressive numbers

Took me a while

Not done any for a while

I think he's a troll that likes to use long words to sound clever. Anyone would think he's trying to tune an F1 car with all these numbers and tests. Its a landy,stick some smegging drill bits in and go have some fun with it.

Been busy.............

In total agreement with above, hence ordering a few spares to get my pulse timing kit up and running again

On a slightly different note, do you know how hard it is to find a decent set of suitable 145' nozzles ? Working on it though......

You believe a troll uses long words to sound clever? Bless.

Fun is subjective,one mans 'smegging drill bits' is another mans chuckle brothers.........................:lol:


*I showed this thread to my 13 yr old earlier and asked him if he found any of the long words too hard to read or understand, he read the thread and said "window licker":lol:*

well this fred was'nt a total waste of my time its made my eyelids heavy and dispelled my desire to stay up late on the puter

Using smaller 'rods' gives no quantifiable adjustment

somewhere would have an actual quantifiable number. not withstanding numerous parallax angles
We haven't even started on pulse timing yet

( as per previous parallax comment

This thread is rapidly becoming hard work and straying away from the original Q! I was/am looking for a direct answer as to if anyone had any hard and fast numbers that are achieved in some sort of quantifiable way.

Underpinning all this is the condition of the pump, hence my interest in pursuing pulse timing

If its not hit and miss then presumably you have a quantifiable way of achieving and measuring the results?

I thought this was a land rover forum,sounds more like a star trek convention.Your 13 year old would fit in well with that comment
