Hi Alan, all
I'll have a stab at straightening this out for you. I'm no expert
myself, but here are some fundamentals. I won't refer to OXS/catalyst cisIII
set ups where the frequency valve gets involved in further fuelling mods via
CP adjustment.
Fuel supply to the injectors (except CSV) is totally at the control of
the metering plunger in the fuel distributor.
The air flap is attached to a long lever which controls the position of
the metering plunger. So in basic terms the fuel supply
is matched to the mass air flow. Again talking in basic terms you can
forget all about boost pressures and so on, as the more air the engine
consumes, the more fuel will be supplied. The obvious constraint is when the
air plate maxes out at the end of its range of movement, which is what I
beleive Javad and Co. are referring to as the limit of CIS fuelling.
As far as turbo apps are concerned, all that talk about manifold
pressure occurs down stream of the air flap and is therefore not directly
relevant to discusssions about fueling.
As far as the warm up regulator goes, this is purely concerned with
enriching the mixture when below working temp. How does it do this?, well it
lowers the control pressure, which is the force opposing the movement of
the air flap, which means that for a given air flow more fuel is supplied
i.e. the mixture is richened. How does it lower control pressure? It does
this by means of a valve which is shut at normal working temp, but which
opens progressively below that temp and bleeds fuel from the CP circuit back
via the fuel dist. to the fuel return line. (Since the CP circuit has a
calibrated supply this bleeding lowers the CP) Yes it does have a
connection to the manifold, but I think (not sure ) that this is to do with
controlling overenrichment under sudden acceleration conditions ( under
which the CIS system by nature already tends to enrichen due to inertia
effects of sudden air plate movements).
So to sum up, forget about the warm up reg as an a way of controlling
fuel supply, It is a simple but effective enrichment device, but due to a
bi-mettalic spring which holds the bleed valve closed once warm, it stops
doing anything once the engine has warmed up
Also in general forget about turbo boost as far as mixture adjustment is
concerned. The basics of the system, - air flap, metering plunger and fuel
dist act to ensure that a roughly suitable mix is supplied. Once the air
plate has maxed out though, you will go lean, over to the turbo guys as to
where that happens.....
