Finally got around to swapping out the .060 washers on the POD`s with some .020`s. Idle haze is alot less, and funny thing I swear it`s running smoother, especially at idle. Also the idle speed is definitely a bit higher (no tach, but I have a good ear). Could just changing the depth of the injector by .040 make a difference in how the engine runs...or am I imagining things? I made no other changes other than the washers.

 

Well, it raises the compression ration a tiny bit!! I guess the spray pattern for the POD's is optimized for the position the nozzles are in with .020" washers...
That does it, I HAVE to put those thin dudes in there on mine also.

 

I'm stuck with the .060 adapter sleeves. It got warm yesterday and I ticked some people off with the haze, that's for sure

 

The 0.020's put the spray pattern more in the bowl and less on the top of the piston.

 

Where would someone go about getting these .020 washers? Sounds like a great thing to try with my truck. I have had an idle hase ever since I installed these horrible injectors. (Really need to just bite the bullet and buy some EDM's)

 

Can get the whole washer setup and the coppers for the return lines from your local pump shop or cummins dealer they come in a kit with a whole bunch of stuff you don't need. Jethrro

 

Tell them you need a Cummins B&C injector install kit.
