Re: [T3] air in fuel lines?
<x-flowed> Being sure that I introduced air into the lines, does this sound like
symptoms that could happen?
Any good tips to make sure I have all the air out? Or other Ideas. I don't
think it is a heat issue now and believe that all the tin is in place.
Also, I have oh so carefully set the timing to 0deg w/vacuum disconnected
and plugged @850-900rpm and I still get a dieseling when Turn the car off?
******************
Any air in the lines would work itself out fairly quickly. The fuel injected
cars have a "fuel loop" fuel is constantly being cycled through the system.
The fuel pressure should be 30psi something much more than engine could use,
but necessary to get a good spray from injectors.
Fuel is constantly being pumped around the fuel loop, out of the tank back
to the engine compartment, then back to the tank. The engine essentially
taps off this loop for its fuel supply.
If an engine is fuel injected, and its dieseling when you turn it of then
there is something wrong with the injection. A fuel injection system cuts
off the fuel supply when the key is turned off, fuel injected cars dont
diesel (well they arent supposed to ;p). If your car is dieseling then fuel
must be making its way into the cylinders after the key is off. I would
check for leaky injectors, there is a procedure in the Bently that details
how much of a "drip rate" is too much
