    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    The housing pressure is not the same as inlet pressure? How can I change the housing pressure?

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    That's the video that I watched. I still can't figure out which component is affected by the inlet pressure. This is my pwm set up

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    Love the tangent. I mix it with gas and use a viscosity tool they use for paint and make it as close as I can with diesel. Still run it 50:50 with diesel. What is failing exactly when I put more that 10 psi on the outlet? The veins? Are they flexing? Don't they go up to 100 psi? Not sure if I'm...

    Does it help if I'm running wmo only at 13 psi? I would think that wmo had more lubrication.

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    Doesn't the diesel cool it enough to a point? I guess I need to research more about the pumps. Can you point me in a direction of a post or video I can look at?

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    I keep hearing about the heads seizing but I've been running it at 13 psi no problem for 500 miles so far. What causes the ip to seize? I don't know how these pumps work really. Can it not handle more than 10 psi?

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    Black Holley pump is hooked up to pwm yes. That genscripter uploaded was my main inspiration in fine tuning with the fuel pressure. Pwm is for " flex fuel " lol. Wmo as far as I read on this forum needs a bit more advancing. Ran it for 150 miles today. Only ate 10 gallons. It's a box ambulance...

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    I have the fuel pressure gauge in the cab. I read on here that it does change timing. Everytime I see the pressure drop, I increase the voltage to 12v. What are the symptoms of a good timing adjustment? No smoke at all?

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    It doesn't smoke bad. Nothing on idle. Black smoke on sudden step on the throttle. Also smoke on hills. I am currently playing with the fuel pressure. I put a black holley pump that puts 12 psi from factory. I put a voltage regulator on it to regulate the pressure. It runs okish at 8 psi. Runs...

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    Right now it is a dimes width advanced from the factory lines. I have new reman injectors but the IP is old. Yeah I know. I don't have enough money for the ip

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    Ok, if I understand correctly, the air fuel mixture in the pre cup auto ignites to early but since it ignites in the pre cup without the proper blending, not enough oxygen is able to burn the fuel and just decompose into soot? I haven't properly timed my engine. I only have a pyro. Would to much...

    Why does is smoke black if I time the injection too advanced?

    I can understand white smoke for the retarded timing. Diesel doesn't have enough time to burn and just goes out to the exhaust. How does advanced timing make it black? If it's firing to early, why is it black and called unburnt fuel? I've tried researching it but I can't find anything.

    94 7.3 idi blowing white smoke at 1500 rpm with no power

    I replaced my injectors as well. advanced it a little bit until the smoke cleared. 1 of the new injectors was stuck open causing a knocking sound. Is it really critical to replace the IP if I can just advance the timing a little bit? The idle is good. No misfires or anything. The only sound Im...

    flow through heater idea for WMO

    gasoline blend wmo is safer for me. The water settles at the bottom and I never put the last 5 gallons in my fuel tank. Goldenrod water block filter is great to also filter the water out.

    7.3 NA Idi e350 belt squeek/wobble (vid)

    Ok thanks guys! I will try a shorter belt first. If that doesnt work im gonna make an adjustable bracket for the alternator with an idler on it.

    7.3 NA Idi e350 belt squeek/wobble (vid)

    The new alternator is upgraded from 90A to 165A The belt is around 1000 miles. I notice that the distance between the pulleys are pretty far. Im just concerned about this squeek

    7.3 NA Idi e350 belt squeek/wobble (vid)

    Im not sure if this is normal but there is a wobble between the alternator and engine pulley that I didnt notice before putting in a new alternator. So I changed the tensioner and idler. After the tensioner was changed the squeels started. The old one seemed stiff but didnt squeel as much. (not...

    Centrifuging D2 from the pump

    I was just curious if anyone has tried to centrifuge d2 diesel as a controlled base line of what is going into our tanks compared to wmo/wvo. I Ordered my spinner from Pa Biodiesel but it will take another week to get here. I don't know how well refineries filter their D2. If most stock fuel...

    What is this part called?

    I thought the rates here was insane compared elsewhere? lol I will definitely "rent" a puller. I looked up johnson alignment and they have a picture with Jay Leno on google maps. I will for sure go there now

    So I found this really handy additive dispenser

    https://imgur.com/gallery/3n4ch5w It pumps out 1 ounce when I measured it. The pump itself can screw on to any 1 gallon size thread. Ive been putting them on everything like atf bottles/wood glue/degreaser concentrates/etc Theyre fairly cheap. I just want to share. Im not sure if it's...

    I looked up what kingpins are all about. They look more durable than ball joints. If you do post the article please let me know. I think Im also going to change out the wheel bearings. Im will be going in deep in this rabbit hole boys!

    What is this part called?

    That is a weeks paycheck for me :( I think ill just call off a day or 2 to work on it myself for 3-4 days. I think I think I only need a press tool and a fork. I have all the other basic tools.

    Thanks towcat. How much hours should I expect the shop to charge me?

    What is this part called?

    What tools would I need to replace the ball joint? Should I hand this in to the shop or is it a straight forward kind of job?
