No (little) oil in IP?
No (little) oil in IP?
The one I opened yesterday was wet with oil, but none drained out and if there was a puddle inside, it wasn't up to the opening. This engine has very poor fuel economy and is a bit sluggish. The pump was at 17.5 instead of 14.5. Not really late enough to explain the poor fuel economy. Perhaps a lack of oil has worn the pump in some way?
Also, I've been using the RIV timing light. I have seen that one can time an IP using a piezoelectric sensor and normal timing light. Anyone have experience with that? What is the "correct" injection point with a timing light?
I've timed a number of OM606 EDC pumps over the years. Each one has drained several mL of engine oil when the cap is unscrewed.
