Hmmm, wonder if its worth knocking my nozzles down to 2mm - something I had considered doing when I first got it.  Stayed with 2.5mm due to occasional 'Injector fully open' errors at full bore.

chrisgixer, yours is still rich at WOT across full rev range and full speed range with 2mm nozzles?


The only issue with my Elite is after its been idling more than a few seconds, a small hunt starts to appear, which immediately goes if I flick it to petrol.
Can't check re WOT just yet until I either bump into Lazy or find someone prepared to drive it at WOT... My neighbour with snap  On reader is out currently so taking it easy until checked.

Hunting and bank imbalance would appear to be due to oversize injector nozzles.... So far anyway. If it's lean then can go bigger obviously. I guess there will be a point where it stays rich enough but doesn't hunt, that will be the magic drill size. Bit fussy if so, but so be it.
IIRC, we did glassbacks to 2.3mm

You drive it yourself at WOT, using the record feature of the s/w ;)...  ....Or give Mrs CG a tablespoon of sugar-filled jelly cubes, and tell her its a VW Polo, not a Vauxhall  :-X
Oh, yes, the other issue, lapy battery is breaked. So will need a rather long extension lead.  ;D

May need to go bigger, I have 2.1/2/3/4 drill sizes  :-/  but iirc Lazytinkers hunts a fraction as well...? Or am I fuddled with yours again?  :-[

Yep, mine are 2.3 and very occasionally has a little hunt ::)

We'll sort it next weekend :y

Who knows, but any calibration needs to be done after its proven the trims don't move on petrol, and when the long terms are at 0%

Does the Stag ECU have a setting for these injectors or are they running on the Valtek 3 ohm setting?
