Northern Banana Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Following new cams (1227) and porting of the head - DVA advised that I would need to up the fuel pressure by adapting my existing regulator (by squeezing between some suitable socket heads in a vice). I have tried to call him today - no answer - must be shopping with HWMBO. Does anyone know how many mm's I need to tighten the vice jaws to effect the necessary increase in pressure? Thanks. Rushing to get ready for Cadwell - therefore it's bound to rain! Northern Banana.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bricol Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Would the best bet be to rig an airline to it with a pressure guage on at least the outlet and squeeze until the right pressure was seen ? Bri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shn7 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 When DVA did mine we got through two regulators. It was simply a case of trial and error and testing with a proper fuel pressure tester fitted to the car after each squeeze . Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
