Re: fuel injection

Just a thought, but what about putting a 'dial what you want' type of pressure regulator on the line from the pump and thus lowering the flow rate on each injector pulse to lean the one you have?



You might need one with a 'return line to the tank' shunt depending on the type of pump you have.



Or maybe one with a relay trigger to pulse the pump off once the right low pressure is reached?



As I say, just a thought or two, all the small engines I play with have carbs...

I need a electrical fuel pump for the engine with specs

109.2cc,Single-cylinder, air-cooled, four-stroke,petrol 8.1bhp at 7250rpm, 0.83kgm at 5500rpm

Could someone tell me a formula for calculating the flow rate required.
