I think..
Andrew needs a thread of his own wit and wisdom and experience.
Perhaps a counterpoint to the "hillbilly tuning" phenomenon?

wolf_walker, do you agree that more air in the mix doesn't mean more efficiency? I think we differ on matters of presentation, andy and I. As for the air in the mix, search me. I'm a NA guy for the time being, they suck(no pun intended) much as they can. I have too many other things on my automotiv...

Everything that I have come to know about the pumps and presented here is practical to tuning them and driving them. I am not speaking about theory that does not apply to everyday real-world practical experience. I am speaking about a practical understanding backed up by considerable firsthand expe...

Assuming timing and atomization are the same, \ But they are not. I understand what you are saying and it makes sense, it has from however many posts back you first said it in this thread. A better way of thinking of it might be to use the example of a steady speed generator application with a give...

This seems to be a recurrent point of debate, this governor/throttle bit. I've read the Bosch book section on it more than a few times and am still digesting.
