Now then! It's surprising how many KRs are actually around here!

Mine doesn't see the road very often if I'm honest, mainly because I still need to set up the Zeeltronic and there are other units in the stable (including a new addition).

Mark1 is generally the man to speak to if you need any bits. 8)

Today was spent at Mick Abbey's to set up my Zeeltronic with DougB at the helm, driving the dyno.

We started with a peak of about 57bhp on the S CDI with lots of holes in the curve, particularly around where the KIPS valves were opening. By the time we'd finished we saw a peak of 59.5bhp, a nice bit of over-rev and pretty-much a straight line from 6700 to 10700rpm. It's running safely rich but I'm very happy with that.

A huge thanks to both Doug and Mick, I had an excellent day! 🙂👍

I wish I was closer to Mick “ the knowledge “ Abbey. It must be so reassuring that your motor is
A) running at peak output
B) running safe eg not to lean and likely to hole a piston.

Thanks for including the graphs as the more technical than me will understand em!
