[Vwdiesel] Diesel octane or why can you run a diesel engine lean?

[H . Hagar.]

Ok I hagar will say this. :

ANYTHING to the left is LEAN   anyting to the right is RICH.   That is by convention and
definitions in all the combustion processes that I know of.

100------------------------------lean-------------------------ZERO--------------------------rich------------------100.

Bob in entire New York   you need to study a bit more ----let me recommend
Diesel Engine management   by Robert Bosch .     -You need to fine TUNE
your understanding of the BOSCH   fuel system for Rabbits.

Lean and Rich comes in many shades ----enter Hagars Hillbilly Tuning  -----it locates
the optimum point for Economy   or if thats what you like  POWER.

Here is a challenge :  I get more miles out of a gallon  due to better coumbustion
by  increasing  manifold pressure.   If you can make a NA  go as far as a Turbo

You are not measuring correctly.    and I like you to put money on it. .By calculation
I know that I can get 100 MPG imp  ----stick that in your pipe and SMOKE.

If you are a gas sniffer ---you need to read about Diesel Fundamentals.   ----here are a
few tit bits.       Moving the Pump does not control ignition point -- it moves Injection
point.    It is NOT like moving a gasser distributer. How many pounds does it take
to oxidize a pund of gasoline ?   12 ?   may need to be adjusted according to DEMENTIA factor.

Hagar.
