Hi folks,
Just a quick question, What should the fuel flow be on a kh verada? As im having what feels like a fuel starving problem every now and again. I have got it tested and its flowing at 1.5 L/per minute. Is this around normal ?

Thanks

gregorys manual anyone?

is this before or after the fpr? 1.5L per minute is way to low for before the fuel pressure regulator, and taking a reading after the fuel pressure regulator isnt going to be useful.

a gregorys manual will have the flow specs for the pump. ill test a VL pump for you shortly and let you know the ball park figure you should be aiming for. VL pump will pump more a because its a bigger/better pump and it has no headloss because im pumping from a barrel and the fuel isn't going though much hose.

it will give you a rough idea though.

the bosch 044 pump i have here, specs say 200L/60m which is 3.3L/m but that is a 700hp pump holding 5bar pressure. ide say your fuel pump is probably close enough and not at fault.

Stock pump flows are 80 litres per hour on all magna vehicles. I am not even going to try and work that one backwards.

Fuel starvation extremely unlikely - I still say there is a problem auto transmission / computer there simon.

80 l/h=1.33 l/m=0.02 l/s

seems a bit low

sounds fine to me.
