Don't get your panties in a wad and please DO NOT tell me what I assumed and yea I should have said driveability or waiting for the turbo to spool up. This is and will be discussion and learn sight. Heck you even learned that the compression ratio is 22:1 not 24:1 on our Deuce this week thanks...
Thats funny most people that say they bypassed there FDC and adjusted there fuel are happy with the way the run now and feel the differance. You ever bypass your FDC or do you still say you like it being there. Nothing wrong with a little fuel in your oil pan and keeping the military fuel set...
Will agree the intake with engine coolant running through it and no inter cooler not the best for making power. The turbo that is spec out for the multi to run at 2600 rpm or 2850 rpm for the LDS and make good power in all the RPM range. To big and you might loose that range. Saying put a bigger...
You would be surprised at what you get with just a Pyro, FDC bypassed and playing oops adjusting your twin nuts. When we talk about the 7 o clock position on the fuel control unit assembly that is not even a full plunger of fuel. How often do you drive around at 2600 RPM?
I would not replace...
Yea was replying to 162tcat that said his 939 series batteries were next not his Deuce. I had two 939 series one I did the battery relocate and the other I said it was a waist of my time and money. I was just pointing out in the 939 series as long as they as tied down correct and sealed...
Broken left femur, left hand nerve damage and right eye loss of some sight. Yea no fun there just glad it was a company truck that hit me and had 300k insurance. Bad was it was my new truck with little mileage good was I had gap insurance and truck got paid off by the insurance.
Yea 162tcat while the 939 series batteries seem to be in a strange place it also will keep them from shorting in salt water so higher is better. Had my batteries shorting in just brackish salt water in my 816. My 939 series came with 6T sealed batteries under the passenger seat so safe around...
Yep best place. Water on mud flap not fuel in case of accident no fuel spill. I do not know about everywhere but Fl. if you caused the accident you pay for the clean up and just guessing fuel spill clean up is $$$. Not my fault so I did not have to pay and no fuel spill still clean up to the...
Biggest problem is if you do not feed him he will eat the pencil and then you have to replace the pencil. He is pretty good at telling speed and RPM for some reason.
I still want to know why there is low idle pressure. So when you get the new filter changed double check pressures. On a side note it really does not need the 30 psi at idle to start and Idle. Had a truck with the system over pressure valve on the secondary removed and truck still started and...
Yep about the same years no sticky on my Deuce when I sold it. The old Detroit 2 stroke with a stuck rack and then pulling the emergency shut down cover on top of the blower then that could suck the blower seals and run off the oil. If your fuel control is working free it is not going to stick...
Well glad your happy but. Ok the hill test is ok but you did not say what RPM you were at when took on the hill and what RPM you climbed the hill. AS we know a true dyno is the way to set EGT's but we have to do the best we can. If you do the hill test a couple of time I would make sure...
The close to correct fuel adjustment will be a truck size puff of black unburnt fuel till the turbo spools and you up and running then clearing as you reach higher speeds /RPM. Incorrect fuel setting a mile long black soot cloud will kill all mosquitoes in the area and most likely piss off the...
