Injector terminology...

Good evening,<br><br>-What are &quot;Extrude Honed Injectors&quot; as advertised on PDR's website? <br><br>- Is any distinct advantage to using these &quot;Extrude Honed Injectors&quot;?<br><br>-How do &quot;Extrude Honed Injectors&quot; differ from the Lucas POD's?<br><br>Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.<br><br>Respectfully,<br><br>Nicholas R. Gajewski<br>

Re:Injector terminology...

Extrude honing is a process in which a playdo/metallic like material is forced through the injector in a controlled amount to polish and hone the inside of the injector, thus you get more fuel flowing per injection.<br><br>Someone correct me if I am wrong.<br><br>--Justin

Re:Injector terminology...

When speaking about honing manifolds or cylinder heads the media used will be much like playdoh. It contains silicon carbide grit.<br><br>Injectors are not honed using a media as viscous as playdoh. Injector media will actually run through your fingers much like oil or water. Silicon carbide grit is used for the abrasive for injectors as well. <br><br>Don~<br><br><br>
