Water/Alcohol injection Turbo Diesel use

[dvldoc]

You will make more power but use a bit more fluid. It takes a 1/16" allen head wrench to turn up the pump. Turn it one 1/4 turn clockwise.

It's that little silver screw on the top of the pump.

Doc will the added power in the pump be beneficial to my use? Is there any rule of the thumb when to increase the pump power to max or use the factory default?
Thanks

It's a easy adjustment, try it out see what changes, if you see a improvment leave it at the 250psi setting. The pump is at 200psi out the box.

Hey dvldoc, i'm planning to have a stage 2 installed by Berrima. My rig seldom gets used when i'm not in country, would this have some issues with the pump drying out? Or maybe in other components of the kit? tia

Pump won't dry out. If you want to leave it sitting for long periods of time it's no problem. The kit can pretty much sit as long as your car can. It's only leaving it in cold climates with fluid in the lines that can freeze being a issue.

This is interesting. Will try this. Thanks for sharing.

Great! thanks doc.

Have a nice day.

guys, this is not my opinion. water/alcohol inj is considered a hoax in the US(just like ALL fuel savers/engine enhancers). the EPA has wrongfully debunked ALL engine improvements except common rail, turbocharger, efi, direct injection, etc. w/c are now incorporated in modern engines. AFAIMC, kung inaakala niyo na advantageous ito sa mga rigs niyo, by all means, gamitin niyo. personally medyo madugo ito para sa katulad ko na limited ang knowledge sa auto mechanics. kung masaya kayo diyan sa mga accomplishment niyo, dapat ituloy niyo, ika nga, susuportahan ko kayo. tnx

You are entitled to your opinion.

Water/Alcohol injection is a proven way to safely increase the power output of a turbocharged diesel engine. This is dyno proven again and again with different vehicles equipped with doc's water/alcohol injection kits.

I have also used it in a performance tuned gasoline engine with small success in gaining more horsepower.

Quote: What's there to prove about alcohol injection? The EPA has actually stated that water injection systems allow for better economy, as they prevent detonation and can allow ultra-lean mixtures, but that this often comes at the expense of emissions. A standard alcohol injection kit does not save fuel without retuning, but that's not its purpose. It's not a fuel saver. It's a power adder. It has been proven to add power to forced induction engines for decades, and was even used for a while on stock GM turbocharged cars. Any fuel savings will require retuning to run on alcohol, but such retuning can be dangerous if one ever runs out of alcohol or fluid... which is why GM dropped the system.
