We had a very interesting Elden-BMW Formula 3 car in last week. Powered by a BMW M10 engine with slide throttle, Kugelfischer fuel injection. The car has recently been restored and looks immaculate. Will look forward to seeing this out on track later this season.
Dave Broughton of 911 Classics brought us a 911 race car running Bosch slide throttle fuel injection. The car was not running right so Dave asked us to put it on the rollers and find out what was going wrong. Graham ran the car up on the rollers and found that it was massively weak. Only 2.04% Co. An adjustment to the injection pump put that right bringing the Co’s up to 6%. The 911 is now delivering 198bhp at the wheels.
