It cant do any harm although the emissions at idle speed could be affected by positioning the injectors further upstream.

I've used the Jenvey cable now with the new outer cable and I've attached a Jenvey cable trunnion to the top of the pedal.

True, i noticed longman did this on his engines, i've just never seen a true great benefit. As some of the charge could be lost in pockets in the body, but then saying this it would dramatically reduce the chance of hot spots in the chamber

#1041: Re: Project sleeper Author: Nic_206, Location: cleaning the carPosted: Sun Jan 04, 2015 11:19 am ---- They wouldn't be the Clarke dollies would they just bought them for my project seem pretty decent
#1042: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sun Jan 04, 2015 11:27 am ---- They certainly are. Made use of the VAT free voucher they sent.
#1043: Re: Project sleeper Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Mon Jan 05, 2015 4:56 am ---- great idea with the dollies, guessing the cover is mainly for dust reduction lol
#1044: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jan 17, 2015 2:35 pm ---- More spending! It has taken a bit of time to work out if it was even possible to fit the Jenvey rail and plumb it into any of the standard fuel system. So I started looking at what's available. After a bit of research it turns out the standard fuel rail, filter and most other connections are called 5/16" male/female quick connects.
Underneath the car just near the drivers seat lives the connector below. The measurements match those of the Aeromotive 5/16" male quick connect. So it made sense that their female quick connect would attach to it. I had to get the measurements from Aeromotives technical dept in the US.
This is Aeromotives Female quick connect. I believe this might be designed for a Ford.
So with a small amount of modification (I.e. removal of the bigger ring on the male part) the Aeromotive quick connect slid on and locked perfectly. I did want to run a braided hose all the way back to the filter but the length of the quick connect is too long to fit.
I think I need a JIC -06 fitting (AN-06) to attach to the quick connect. Or it could be an ORB-06. One has an O-ring, the other doesn't. The packaging suggests one thing but the Aeromotive website suggests the other.
As that end is sorted I bought a Jenvey fuel rail.
So next week I need a length of -06 Goodridge braided hose, a cap for one end of the fuel rail, a couple of hose end fittings and a male to male JIC adaptor.
#1045: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jan 17, 2015 2:46 pm ---- The Jenvey rail comes with injector clips but they don't fit the GTi 180 injectors I have fitted. I have modified the standard Peugeot injector clips slightly.
The reason for the Jenvey clips not fitting is the design of the injector. The locking groove is in the wrong place, works ok on the standard rail but not the Jenvey one.
Peugeot injectors only have one locking groove.
Other injectors have two grooves which is what I need for the Jenvey clips to fit.
#1046: Re: Project sleeper Author: samversteeg, Location: The NetherlandsPosted: Sat Jan 17, 2015 5:25 pm ---- The quick connects are a nice solution!
Why do you want to use a Jenvey fuel rail instead of the stock one?
I had to adjust the injector (Mini's 310-330cc) clips to my stock fuel rail haha
#1047: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sun Jan 18, 2015 2:20 am ---- The Jenvey rail and braided hoses look faster! I'm sure the original injector positioning will be better for low speed emissions but I just wanted to finish it off! It's just a bit of an expensive extravagance. Fuel mixing at higher engine speeds should be better though.
It's a bit like the Jenvey linkage. It doesn't do anything that the original didn't but it looks a lot better.
#1048: Re: Project sleeper Author: samversteeg, Location: The NetherlandsPosted: Sun Jan 18, 2015 5:02 am ---- The injectors positioned in the throttle bodies is better for fuel mixing at high engine speeds indeed. I've seen comparison graphs with a remarkable diffrence.
And sure it looks a lot nicer
Fitting the original fuel rail at throttle body position might have been easier.
It's nice to see you're making good progress. Are you considering a standalone ecu?
#1049: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sun Jan 18, 2015 6:27 am ---- It already has an Omex 600 ECU in the glove box.
#1050: Re: Project sleeper Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Sun Jan 18, 2015 9:27 am ---- What goes in the original injector holes now?
