.216 Injector Nozzles?
zorgman replied to a11mcr's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II

1997 1.9tdi 90bhp Fuel?
zorgman replied to a11mcr's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
thats an easy one stick a set of 110 injectors in or do the evry mod for more guts when towing. this is a great forum but does lack quite a bit of technical knowhow on these engines i answer loads on here all moaning that there maf is dead etc etc with no knowledge on how to check it etc. for proper info on the tdi engine you need to read on tdi tuning or vw audi forums where there is masses of info with regards tips cheks limp mode etc, chances are anyone reading this dont know about blocking egr off or taking the fap off its a particulate filter not a cat that sucks power out of the car, take the back box off as well thats total overkill on the system noise levels dont change and diesels dont get a emmisions test just a smoke test mines past 3 mot's with the mods ive got on mine and i piss off loadsa cars bottom end and top end. mpg wise mines brill i never see less than 40mpg knocking about and on a run its in the 60's, 260 round trip sitting at 70' 80's costs me -
