Add in the need for the CR nozzles for the spray pattern that accommodates a central injection point, and you have a very unlikely candidate for a TDI-m.
You just have to put common rail injector, pump and ECU from a peugeot HDI on an ALH motor, and, enjoy.......!!!
i've thought of a whackey idea to control PD's and CR's somewhat mechanically. a distributor from a gasser could be used to fire the injectors and give linear timing advance, while the pedal would give a potentiometer style signal for injection quantity? :lol:
Why would you want to use the PD system? Seems like the CR is the hot setup to me because of power gains from greater fuel atomization and lower compression possible. I dream of a simplified CR system for a Samuri or Toy off-road setup.
