In the meantime have been sorting out some other issues, timed up the pump to get a base timing figure, which will make tuning much easier in the future, seems going by "knock" is very much impossible with DI as the window for engine to run is absulutly tiny in comparison to the idi which seems to run even if pumps 180deg out!!
As some people have no doubt noticed on my facebook, have had another fail in that the charger I bought (old one got broke on last engine) has turned out to be dud, basically on the eaton chargers one end of rotors is oil filled, so generally fine, but other end runs in sealed needle bearings, which often fail if not rebuild / greased, turns out some **** fooked me over on ebay and sold me a screwed one, sadly bought it months ago and only just got around to digging it out, so no way to get refund now, so will have to order up another!
But basically the bearings have been gone a while / rotors have been rubbing the casing / screwed it totally, either way, I repacked the buggered bearings with grease / re built the blower just so as I can still start the car in the workshop etc as without it the belt dosnt fit and decomp isnt happy!
Few photos of the rather pointless rebuild:
Other than these fails, not much to report sadly!
Great post. Finding ideas to write about is one of the hardest things about running a blog. Please visit http://goo.gl/ZB55tL
