Non binding, use the SDS installation instructions for reference! | Non binding, use the SDS installation instructions for reference! | ||
* It is essential for the entire system that the fuel pressure is correctly set. You will do that by adjusting the fuel pressure regulator according to what the avionics show. Make sure, you select the correct fuel pressure sensor make and model in the avionics setup menu. Best to temporary hook up a fuel pressure gauge to have a second mean to confirm, it is set correctly. | |||
* The proper and careful installation of the silver fuel injector adapter into the cylinder head is important. Follow the most recent SDS instructions. Use only the referenced high temperature blue Loctite 246. Hand tight, then 1 1/2 turns. There are older instructions out there that reference 60 inch pounds torque which is no longer a desired tightening method and may not be enough to hold the adapters in. | * The proper and careful installation of the silver fuel injector adapter into the cylinder head is important.

* It is important to properly ground the ECUs as the injector return current will flow through it. At high rpm, a voltage drop across the ground wiring can cause improper injector operation which may lead to individual hot cylinders. | * It is important to properly ground the ECUs as the injector return current will flow through it.
