Switching to oblique injectors: are 314 nozzles better than 265?
Switching to oblique injectors: are 314 nozzles better than 265?
I'm going to oblique, or angled, injectors in my 603. I'm currently using pretty fresh 265 nozzles.
Will these work fine with the oblique prechambers?
If I can use either the 265 or 314 nozzles, are the 314 nozzles a worthwhile upgrade with respect to idle quality? Will they help low rpm, off-boost torque?
For what is it worth... My understanding is that the 314 nozzles are the latest design version. The main focus for an OEM is always on emissions first. From what I have read, the 314 nozzle orifice is different to promote a finer spray, allowing for better combustion and quieter operation and idle quality.
Advancing the injection timing as much as acceptable will increase bottom end torque.
Forced The 240/ is quiet and gives decent low-end torque.
265 is a little louder, loses some low end torque but has more high end power.
The 2-stages were quiet, even with 265 nozzles, but lost noticeable low end torque.
I love the lower emissions part and the quieter idle part. I initially got a boner for oblique injection after driving my GF's 300d 2.5T with angled injectors. I never see smoke and it's damn near as quiet as a new diesel. I'm curious about how much of the share of idle improvement is due to oblique injection and how much is due to the 314 nozzles.
As usual, before I posted I did a lot of searching. In this thread remarks were made regarding nozzle experimentation low rpm torque. Somebody said that Bozios made a significant low RRM torque improvement and there's this...

Angled injectors. Used on later build 60x engines to increase swirl in the PC thereby reducing emissions and improving fuel economy.
So oblique injectors would not apply to the 617's? I've never been close to the 60x so I do not know how much the prechambers varied, but I imagine they changed quite a bit
I don't think they'll work in a 61x. I'm sure OM606 could tell you for sure.
This page gives a lot of info on the 60x prechambers

Pre chambers on 60x are prety close to those on 61x, or any type engine in the mercedes range for IDI engines , what changes is the exaust holes in the chamber. have u seen the ball inside the pre-chamber? so what u think is there for?
my opinion, u want the fuel to exit the pre-chamber fast to get high tq, wont work that way. high tq will come with slow spreading of gases. two ways to get it , reduce holes size, or increase holes quantity and get it with fuel. high tq come with decrease in injection timing, high rpm comes with increase in rpm timing. u can play around with this.
tip check some dif in truck engine, regarding the pre-chambers.

I did the swap this weekend. I pop tested the 3.5l injectors and they looked fine so I used them. Judging by the noise, I suspect they're also 265 nozzles. I was hoping they would have 314 nozzles in them :-(
The good news is the performance increase with the oblique prechambers. I used to get a smoke screen in the lower gears at heavy throttle and high rpm. Now there's just an opaque mist and the engine likes to rev more. I used to have to shift at about 4100 rpm due to lack of torque, now I rev it to 5k. Not much noticeable difference below 3000 rpm.

Whoa. This is a revelation. It appears the part# for the prechamber is A6160100752.
From what I can see they are different body injectors, and what I meant to ask is if the nozzles are interchangeable from body to body.
So in order to switch to oblique you'd need different prechambers and the different style injector?
And for the benefit of running smoother or what
In the parts thing, there's a build date split for the prechambers and injector bodies. There's no build date split for the nozzles. I take that to mean the same nozzles went in the normal early injector housings and the later housings for angled prechambers.

I have some documents, not sure there useable:

I have checked EPC and the head number hasn't changed from old type to new.
But the prechamber, prechamber nut and ring, and of course the injector.
Also a other camshaft have been used.

As long as the angled prechambers work with the piston, then I think you're good. Add fuel lines to the list or take the chance on bending the old ones.
Are you asking about a particular engine?
