i had dropped off a set of 550's to get cleaned and flow tested

got a call back with these results

injector 1-60cc
injector 2-59cc
injector 3-56cc
injector 4-53cc

now my question is...


how bad is it that the injectors flow un-uniformly?

Multiply those by 10 and its like you have 1 injector that flows 530cc and another that does 600cc... almost impossible to tune is my guess.

pretty old i guess, i've had them sit for a few months (4) before i decided to get'em cleaned...but before that i don't know the mileage/age of the injectors

my setup would be most of the bolt-ons w/o internal work...would it make that much of a diffence performance wise???

Like dave said Impossible to tune.

Or you could put the 600cc on in the lean cyl tongue , and the 530cc one in the cyl closest to the fuel rail.

I wouldent recomend it though.

Hey Chris,

Where did you send them to get clean and flow tested? And how much did it cost?

Jon most disel shops can connect you with a place that flowtests injectors. Try a disel shop in your area. Cheaper than shipping to toronto.
