converted my 406 2.1 to run with bosch pump off an xud 1.9
i know there are various controls on this pump and it needs setting up
it runs ok ish
but i am sure it would do better on fuel with setting up properly
where do we start an airflow meter perhaps
i believe to produce black smoke air fuel ratio would have to miles out and i know diesels have a wide air fuel ratio whre they produce power .
phill
pump guru needed xud bosch

Hi Phill
I'm not sure that the 1.9 pump is entirely suitable for the 2.1, the torque characteristics are very different, however I cannot be sure of this. Certainly the engine needs more fuel but increasing the max output is easy by adjusting the screw at the top of the injector pipe connections. I don't know if the advance curve is the same.
I expect Jim will know or if not him someone will.
