Myna 7mm vs Floyd 7.5mm Elements
Myna 7mm vs Floyd 7.5mm Elements

Supposedly the 7.5mm allow a smoother idle, which is preferable for those of use who want daily driver and not just a race car. Is this true?
Obviously Myna knows what they are doing so why are they not using a 7.5 already instead of the 7.0?
If the 7.5mm are better for idle, then it seems that a Myna build with these 7.5mm is the way to go.
I like the idea of a Myna pump since they are adjustable, what kind of adjustments do they allow?
Any thoughts are welcome!

01-31-2011, 02:14 PM #1I know this has been tossed around in the M75 thread, but this is a bit more focused. Let's say that one wanted to go the Myna route since DervTuning is busy...I have a couple questions:

(01-31-2011, 02:14 PM)jonbobshinigin Supposedly the 7.5mm allow a smoother idle, which is preferable for those of use who want daily driver and not just a race car. Is this true?a smooth idle comes from good quality elements AND good bench adjustment. Possible with both types of elements.
(01-31-2011, 02:14 PM)jonbobshinigin Obviously Myna knows what they are doing so why are they not using a 7.5 already instead of the 7.0?this was also my idea but the time I asked Myna's 8mm elements were already their choice.

boost enrichment via external actuator, AFAIK.
Myna is a very good diesel shop using 7mm elements (and others).
Floyd M7.5 are just elements.
One thing is the stuff/parts the other thing is the knowledge of adjustment.

Yeah, you'd have more potential with 7.5mm and possibly better idle, but you'd be left having somebody with little/no tuning experience for these engines guesstimate the governor adjustments.
To me Myna is worth the extra $500 for pretty much being plug-n-play; adjusting the transmission, maximum fuel and aneroid is all you'd have left to do (assuming you already have the desired airflow mods).

Myna is the complete package. They have done many pumps and know exactly what settings to use for each engine type.

I agree with this as well. I'm all for finding someone stateside that could do it to save a few pennies. One person that is willing to get the experience by repeated tries. I just haven't found the person yet. There has to be some diesel tuner with some VE experience out there. They were used limitedly in Dodges IIRC and certainly in a number of tractors....

Mynä-pump has settings for max fueling, ALDA operation and max revs without disassembling the pump. For many years the Mynä 7mm pumps have had nice, almost stock-like idle. I bet they won't build you a pump with your choice elements, but with their 7mm or 8mm. Don't see the point using other than those, as they have been proven very good.

He has been in business 40 years and stays profitable entirely on word of mouth advertising.I have loads of future modifications to do to realize the full potential of my Myna pump. My stock turbo with a IC putting out up to 25 psi boost (at 80 mph floored, otherwise top boost is about 20) does not come close to burning all the fuel if the dark smoke I can put out is an indicator of unburned fuel. I know both the IC and turbo need to be upgraded, and other smaller things to be done. All in all I'm very happy with the Myna pump. I'm still tweaking the transmission modulations, but it's now acceptable. I also would like to cut down on idle smoke output, and smoke output at the time from idle to 1300 rpm. With the timing at 24 the engine sounds like a Cummins, while before it was whisper quiet. Prior the transmission shifted perfectly also.

The mynä-pumps have all different timing settings, don't know why but of all the ones that I've seen every one of them had their own settings.

Do you have a retarding edge on your elements?
My experience (after speaking with diesel gurus) is 24 -20 deg BTDC.
24 with higher output, towards 20 with moderate output.
Easy to check: Go late until you see smoke on full/higher load. Then you know that end of injection gets too late.

Timing is more related to fuel type than to the shop that made the pump.

is it on this side? This is my pump... BTW I tweaked the settings today and got much less smoke at idle while still retaining nearly full power at higher rpms. Now I need to adjust the tranny vaccuum settings.

(02-12-2011, 02:01 AM)tomnik which screw did you adjust to reduce idle smoke?#1- which stops the lever from full travel to the right. #2 does that also, but #1 is a easier, finer adjustment. It also cut down smoke at upper rpm levels also- I am way under boosted across the rpm range. I see no major difference in power/speed after the tweaking, just less smoke.

After looking at the OP, I have to say my idle is very smooth, and the engine returns to idle quickly. At 24 degrees timing the engine does sound like a truck diesel- much louder than the stock IP was.

I asked Mynä of that timing. It depends when pump is made. what timing should use.
