 Is it possible to use  existing TD injectors with new n/a
nozzles AND the TD shims? Seeing as the TD versions are as
common as hens teeth.

Mark Shepherd  and  ALL :    Read Loren and Gary Bangs and your answer is right
at your fingertips.

If you do "Hillbilly Tuning"  ----many combination of nozzles and pumps will work.

I drive a VW Rabbit  1984 1.6L Turbo   063 nozzles set at  155 bar. . Manual control of
LDA   and getting 78 Miles to a gallon  imp   and GOOD performance. Not bad for a 20 
year old   4 door    light metallic blue   ---cutie.

Bosch is NOT VW   ---so the same nozzles are used by many many different types of engines.
, so identify nozzle by looking at number ---deeply engraved on upper part.

063 is specified for 1.5 L  NA.   and yes I use it in a 1.6L Turbo ---------- works like stink.

Other nozzles I tried :      103   ---  193  ----- 273 ----293   ----   .and more.

BUT     ---- NOTICE --- like Loren said long time ago  ---start your TUNING with NEW nozzles.

I took his advice --even if it cut down on my Beer budget.  ---so I know the difference it makes.

Believe me I have lots of old serviceable nozzles sitting on the bench. ----Great little 
buggers for playing with.

If you use dial indicator on the pump ? use the specified Nozzles.

Autohaus Arizona is a scumbag outfit ---fallse advertising ---believe me. (or not)?.

PS :    My mind is in Grand Central  in New York 1953.  ----Baby meet me under the Clock.
How I miss those years. ---------   Real STEAM.
