injector pump adjustment ?

[makeitfit]

I've searched and searched on this but failed every time ;/
For extra fuel do I undo the screw or screw it in ?
We don't have diesel tuner shops round these parts by the way lol
So I'm going for half a turn at a time to see what happens, but experienced info would be so much nicer.
Cheers all learned ones

I'm not 100% sure myself, but I've been told 1/8 of a turn at a time..
To me, logic would say undo (open up).
Have you looked on other sites?

Yes I've spied the "other" site and google. It's as if it's black magic lol
I assumed out too but may have gone too far too soon, oo er misses ?!

Scratch that , it seems better with a quarter turn IN
Work in progress ?

Conclusion : it's defo turn IN for more fuel
I've ended up with a tad over 1/4 turn. I did try a half turn but the smoke screen behind was a WW2 battle ship defense system lol
Turned down the idle and bob's your uncle.
Right off to the S/C pulley shop now...........................

Well there ya go.. doing mine as part of the tickle up..
I've heard when cruzing you use marginally more fuel as the car is coasting, its when you floor it you suck it up but that's when the power is noticeable..

As for idle, I increased mine a little as the vacume choke wasn't working properly. fixed the leak and not only did it start working again but so did my brakes.. but for some reason I found it felt more perkier with slightly higher idle, around 900rpm when warmed up..
Dunno how, just did..

But glad we got an answer..

Injectors you say ? erm, well I have no idea actually.
I guess they could do with a refurb at least, I'll investigate that soon , cheers

Well I've a way to go then I've only done 170k MILES that is
I've just got back from a 30 mile test run taking the boy to work and the truck's like a new beast, I love it even more now.
I'm running 35s and this little tweak has got me another gear back, fantastic . Still a little smokey on the hills though, but it doesn't fade away now, ace ;-)
