Use it or lose it

Suppose i could rent it out to people who have fitted the electric fan mod and removed their viscous so they could get a more accurate Modulation reading.

Always referred to as ‘uprated to 300TDI’ from what I’ve seen
unlike coil springs which is only sometimes referred to as

From memory, he had a fit of pique when they introduced the 'new' forum layout and fooked oft for 3 years

Hes not one to quit our Data.
He’s either doing his concreting
Or he’ll be back soon enough with complete spreadsheets with/without viscous.
I bet
With/without egr would be my interest.

EGR makes no difference to running of engine. But blanking it does keep the internals of the manifold and inlet tracts clear of crap. But instead of spending £40.00 + on a EGR blanking unit, just remove your fitted one, clean it out, make sure the closure spring is sound and blank off the vac pipe to it. Job done.

So having a MAF makes no difference to how much fuel is put in, compared to no MAF?
Just monitors it differently?

MAF has nothing to do with fuelling other than the inlet air temp it registers, which is used along with coolant temp, fuel temp to fine adjust fuel quantity. MAF is for measuring ingested exhaust gas when EGR is active, it has nothing to do with fuelling other than previously stated.

They bodged the IAT then
Only there as a value to stop EDC having hissy fit?

Yes there is a IAT preset in the ECU for EGR engines. From memory -38.88. Taking the IAT at the MAF is rather like wearing a top coat in Portsmouth because it is snowing in Glasgow. Think it is designed to ensure EGR works under all ambient conditions.

You're a bad man. Put the spoon down and step back holding your hands where we can see them.

It runs on magic as far as I'm concerned.
Modulation is quite simple and easy to understand. It is the method used to position the injection pump static cam to adjust the point of injection. However several boxes need to be ticked to obtain a correct reading. RPM needs to be stable at idle. Engine temp needs to be stable, internal injection pump pressure needs to be stable and in conjunction with this fuel temp needs to be stable. Any of those components fluctuating or not being stable will give a false reading.
