Has anyone tried increasing the fuel pressure on there om617?
Recently been reading about performance benefits around increased fuel pressure.
The Fuel Return Banjo on our IPs contains a check valve that impacts fuel pressure.
The earlier om617's were adjustable, unfortunately mine is the later sealed type
Here's a page from the maintenance manual, which contains factory fuel pressure values and adjustment procedure.
bar to psi conversions:
0.6 bar = 8.7 psi
0.8 bar = 11.6 psi
I figured it would prob. be a good thing to verify exiting fuel pressure, before making any adjustments...so I picked up a gauge.
Being able to check pressure with only a glace seems like a nice addition
I have an early adjustable banjo on the way...now just need to get some fittings to plum this thing.
anyone else running a pressure gauge under the hood?
