A few questions

I have a 92 D-250 ctd that i haved installed bosch 185 injectors(sometimes referred to as powerwagon injecters) On another forum they listed these injectors along with the 190 injectors as smaller than stock. How can they be smaller than stock and still give more power? Also, do the 185,s require more advance on the pump like the pod injectors? I am running about 14* advance on timing. Thank-you.

They are bigger than the stock injectors on an intercooled truck. The non-intercooled trucks had bigger injectors.

I'd move up to 16 degrees.

Just simply go to "user CP" and click "signature"...........you should then be able to type into the signature block.

Timing makes your egts go down so i dont see what difference it would make on pulling a trailer. It will probably smoke a little bit more going up slight grades or accelerating. Fuel mileage should go up too.
