Thread: Autospeed article on PD injector timing tune

  1. #1

    Autospeed article on PD injector timing tune

    Here

    Not sure how relevant this is to the twin cam 2l models but it is definitely relevant to the single cam 1.9l.

    Have you noticed if the cam wheel that does the injectors is slotted on yours Greg?

    that specific example was discussed here in a separate thread by the author of that article.

    ahh well he did all the ajusting himself so good on him. Seems like a good life to get paid for writing up tinkering with your car!

    ...if I had a dollar......

    I am sorry if anyone was offended by that omission. I don't normally cite sources like that in an article unless there is ongoing documentation available that will benefit readers over the long term.

    There is nothing to stop anyone tinkering with their car, writing-up (and photographing) the results and then submitting them to a commercial publication. That in fact is exactly how I sold my first article to a car magazine.

    Ofcourse! No offense intended - just saying

    buzuki - are you a dealer mech/specialist mech or general mech or none of the above and i'm guessing wrong?

    I would think that anyone who found your article relevant would also find this site of great benefit. Just a casual mention that you recieved some advice from here that helped you achieve your end result would let them investigate this site and provide due credit to the experts in this forum.
