- Issues:
This will most likely first be a replacement ECM because of the small aftermarket for common rail products. So Bosch common rail is a good start to look at.
One critical thing would be timing for injection
- Timing:
pilot injection
~ -40degrees (2-4mm^3) Timing not critical. Optimal timing is dependant on load and revs.
Main injection
no load -2 - 4
part load -6 - 4
full load -15 - -6
duration 40-60 deg crank
5000 crank rpm = 5000 / 60 rps = 5000/60 * 360 degps = 33us/deg
average unexpected delay = 7us = 7/33 deg = 0.21deg
- Electrical Requirements:
Like voltage and current of injectors
