I'm not a fan of James Monroe, because i've known Ron since the mid 80's when i lived i Phx Az. But i'm sure that David/hammer is spot on on the setup for your setup. No David i'm not kising up to you i just have a lot of respect for what you have done and accomplished with the Rons stuff. Enough said.
Zip.
Thanks Zip
Like all injection is pretty straight foward, I've struggled in the past and decided enough was enough and learned the hard way. My last engine had the same setup in it for 4 years, a 1000hp motor is 39/80 all day, his 1 pump will be a tricky one to nail on the head and leave it alone.
Kod there is a 0 1/2 rons black pump on ebay. If it didnt cost me 40 cents a minute to talk to you in Canada from my cell, I'd run you through everything on the phone. If it comes down to it, I will still do this either way.
What does it idle at in gear (rpm) with the fuel shutoff all the way in ?
Thanks Hammer. If you PM me your number and when you are available, I can call you.
It idles at about 1000 RPM in gear with the shut off all the way in. In park, it idles at about 1600 RPM.
I drained the oil out of the engine today and recovered 14 quarts. 7 quarts of oil and about 7 quarts of methanol. The vacuum breater tank was full of emulsified oil. Thick as molassas. There is no doubt the injection system is very rich.
I changed oil and filter and cleaned everything up today. I will preheat the oil and change to an 80 pill and 39 nozzles in the AM. I will warm it up with the shut off part way out. Then pull a valve cover and check for milking.
