HEUI Injector Parts, Operation, and Modifications HEUI Injector Parts, Operation, and Modifications Original posts from DieselStop.com Archives >> Power Strokes 1994-1997 (11/01-7/03) by Swamp Donkey (edited for clarity by SaintITC, PDF by F250_ ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Edit: The Application Guide link is corrected; I'm having modem problems, so if I'm slow to answer posts or disappear from the Forum for a while, you know why; Carpentractor has a nice injector diagram on his web site, but I can't post the link. Look in his Northeast Rally download postings for *.jpg2. (As of October 2017, since Carpentractor’s site has either changed to a new web address or is just no longer available, so alternative diagrams have been included below.) Let me preface this post by saying that I know perfectly well that I'm not supposed to disassemble or modify an injector, and that doing so will void the warranty, affect the calibration, yadda, yadda, yadda. Those who feel this way can click the "Back" button on their browser right now! Those who want more power, for less money, keep reading. This is the first of 2 or 3 posts dealing with the injector. Part 1 is Injector Parts, Part 2 is Injector Operation, and Part 3 is Injector Modification. Please confine any replies to this post to the injector parts, and how they are assembled, not to how they work. Forum member rwoody loaned me an injector (and a cam!) when I was by his place in OK last week, and I've spent five days taking it apart and figuring out how it works, with an eye towards understanding how to modify them for more power. In short, I believe that for those willing to do some of the work themselves, some tremendous power gains are available for a lot less money than most companies are charging. At this point, I'm NOT advocating people start pulling their injectors to tweak them--I'm saying let's put our heads together and study how they work until we thoroughly understand their operation, and the ramifications of any modifications. Then we decide if we want to tweak them. To follow these posts, you will need to go to www.dipaco.com , download several files, and then print them out so you can see everything at once. If you have an injector to take apart and follow along, that will be even better. The files linked below are attached at the end of this document for convenience.

HEUI Injector Parts, Operation, and Modifications Original posts from DieselStop.com Archives >> Power Strokes 1994-1997 (11/01-7/03) by Swamp Donkey (edited for clarity by SaintITC, PDF by F250_ ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Part 1. HEUI Injector Parts Start with #FI-77. There are 46 parts in the injector, grouping into several sub-assemblies. The 4 solenoid screws go through the solenoid, through the spacer, and into the adapter. The 4 assembly screws go through the adapter into the piston and valve body. The piston and valve body screws into the body. The 6 dowels just keep things aligned during assembly, but do nothing else. The first O-ring goes inside the adapter, and the sleeve fits inside the poppet shim and into the adapter. The O-ring seals the sleeve into the adapter. The adjusting screw goes through the armature and into the poppet valve. The poppet spring is sandwiched between the poppet valve and the sleeve. When assembled, the armature is on top of the adapter, about half of the poppet is inside the adapter, and half of poppet and spring are below it. The lower part of the poppet fits inside the piston and valve body. There are 2 O-rings after the piston and valve body; one fits on the outside of the valve body to seal it to the body, the other fits inside to seal the piston. The piston fits into the bottom of the piston and valve body. The retaining ring is a snap ring that goes on the upper end of the plunger; the retaining washer seats on the ring, acting as a seat for the spring. When assembled, the spring and 2/3 of the plunger are inside the piston, the rest of the plunger fits inside the barrel. The upper side of the barrel mates to the piston and valve body. The retaining spring girdles the barrel, and holds the check ball in position on a vent hole in the side of the barrel. This valve allows oil or fuel that leaks past the piston or plunger to be vented into the fuel supply, preventing "hydrolock" of the injector. See FI-69 for a close up. The check ball and check plate are sandwiched in pockets between the stop plate and the stop. The ball lets fuel into the barrel, but closes off during injection. Then the plate lets fuel into the spacer sleeve, and from there into the nozzle, but closes off to prevent fuel from flowing back into the barrel from the nozzle when the nozzle needle closes. The nozzle needle fits inside the nozzle tip; the spacer sleeve fits against the nozzle tip, and the lift spacer sits on top of the needle, with the stop pin on it, going inside the spring. See FI-68 for a detail view. The spacer sleeve is not shown in FI-68. The spacer sleeve mates with the stop on the top end. The stop pin limits the travel of the needle to about .38mm, and getting slammed against the stop 2-3,000 times a minute by up to 18,000 psi takes its toll. When assembled, everything from the barrel to the nozzle tip is inside the body, and the only parts which are really visible are the adapter, piston and valve body, barrel, stop plate, spacer sleeve, and nozzle tip. More to come, stay tuned. Conversion Factors: 1" = 25.40mm -- 1mm = .039" (39/1000) .10mm = .0039" (39/10,000) .01mm = .00039" (39/100,000). For comparison, a sheet of paper is about .10mm, a hair is .04mm. If a number is preceded by ± that means I had difficulty getting a consistent measurement, with the uncertainty generally being less than .10mm. Measurements were taken with a digital caliper reading to .0015"/.01mm, and double-checks done with a .0001" micrometer. Both were calibrated with the same 1" standard. Spring rates were calculated using the wire diameter, coil diameter and number of coils, but could have ±10%-15% error, or possibly more. Part 2 HEUI Injector Operation It is assumed that you have thoroughly read and understood the previous post before reading this one! The solenoid and poppet control the flow of high pressure oil into and out of the injector; the piston, plunger and barrel pressurize the fuel for injection; the check balls/stop plate control fuel flow direction and the nozzle assembly controls when and how fast the fuel sprays through the tip orifices. HEUI Injector Parts, Operation, and Modifications Original posts from DieselStop.com Archives >> Power Strokes 1994-1997 (11/01-7/03) by Swamp Donkey (edited for clarity by SaintITC, PDF by F250_ ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Solenoid and Armature: When the solenoid is energized by the PCM/IDM it creates an electro-magnetic field which pulls the armature upwards. The armature's maximum travel is limited to .50mm, the difference in thickness between the armature (4.97mm) and the solenoid spacer (5.47mm). This .50mm can be slightly less during injector operation due to the oil film present, and can be reduced if the adjusting screw is loosened. When the adjusting screw is fully tightened, the top of the poppet is flush against the bottom of the armature. When the screw is loosened, the armature is able to move freely up and down between the screw head and the adapter. If the screw is too loose, the armature will contact the solenoid before it contacts the screw head, and the poppet will not open. The screw has a thread pitch of .5mm, so if it is loosened by 1 turn or more, the poppet will not move. On this injector, the top of the poppet is flush with the top of the adapter, meaning that if there is any wear on the lower (oil inlet) seat, and the adjusting screw is fully tightened, when the solenoid is de-energized the armature will bottom out on the adapter before the poppet is fully on the lower seat, and it will no longer seal. Thus, high pressure oil will flow in the lower seat and out the upper seat. The screw can be loosened 1/4 to 1/3 turn to allow the poppet more down-travel to seat more fully without limiting the up-travel. (I am beginning to wonder if this screw really adjusts anything, or if Dipaco misnamed it.)

Condition/Concern: Some service procedures, service bulletins, or PIs may advise to decarbon the engine with GM Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner to remove valve deposits but the label that is on the back of the bottle does not include any instructions that explain how to use the cleaner. Recommendation/Instructions: If a service procedure, service bulletin, or PI does not include decarboning instructions and the GM Vehicle Care 3 Step Induction Cleaning Kit (E-957-001) is not available, the guidelines below supplement the label and explain how the cleaner can be used to clean the intake valves: Important: Extreme care must be taken not to hydrolock the engine when inducing the cleaner. If too much cleaner is induced at too low of a RPM, or if you force the engine to stall by inducing too much cleaner at once, the engine may hydrolock and bend a connecting rod(s). 1. In a well-ventillated area with the engine at operating temperature, slowly/carefully induce a bottle of GM Upper Engine and Fuel Injection Cleaner into the engine with RPM off of idle enough to prevent it from stalling (typically around 2,000 RPM or so).

  • Poppet Valve
    POPPET VALVE A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, usually round or oval, and a tapered plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft also called a valve stem. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also open it. Other types Presta and Schrader valves used on tires are examples of poppet valves. The Presta valve has no spring and relies on a pressure differential for opening and closing while being inflated. Uses Poppet valves are used in most piston engines to open and close the intake and exhaust ports. Poppet valves are also used in many industrial process from controlling the flow of rocket fuel to controlling the flow of milk[[1]]. The poppet valve was also used in a limited fashion in steam engines, particularly steam locomotives. Most steam locomotives used slide valves or piston valves, but these designs, although mechanically simpler and very rugged, were significantly less efficient than the poppet valve. A number of designs of locomotive poppet valve system were tried, the most popular being the Italian Caprotti valve gear[[2]], the British Caprotti valve gear[[3]] (an improvement of the Italian one), the German Lentz rotary-cam valve gear, and two American versions by Franklin, their oscillating-cam valve gear and rotary-cam valve gear. They were used with some success, but they were less ruggedly reliable than traditional valve gear and did not see widespread adoption. In internal combustion engine poppet valve The valve is usually a flat disk of metal with a long rod known as the valve stem out one end.

  • History of a Forgotten Engine Alex Cannella, News Editor
    POWER PLAY History of a Forgotten Engine Alex Cannella, News Editor In 2017, there’s more variety to be found un- der the hood of a car than ever. Electric, hybrid and internal combustion engines all sit next to a range of trans- mission types, creating an ever-increasingly complex evolu- tionary web of technology choices for what we put into our automobiles. But every evolutionary tree has a few dead end branches that ended up never going anywhere. One such branch has an interesting and somewhat storied history, but it’s a history that’s been largely forgotten outside of columns describing quirky engineering marvels like this one. The sleeve-valve engine was an invention that came at the turn of the 20th century and saw scattered use between its inception and World War II. But afterwards, it fell into obscurity, outpaced (By Andy Dingley (scanner) - Scan from The Autocar (Ninth edition, circa 1919) Autocar Handbook, London: Iliffe & Sons., pp. p. 38,fig. 21, Public Domain, by the poppet valves we use in engines today that, ironically, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=8771152) it was initially developed to replace.

  • Swampʼs Diesel Performance Tips to Help Remove and Install Power

La Vergne, TN 37086 Tel 615-793-5573 or (866) 595-8724/ Fax 615-793-5572 Email: [email protected] Tips to help remove and install Power Stroke injectors. Removal: After removing the valve covers and the valve cover gaskets, but before removing any injectors, drain the oil rails by removing the drain plugs inside the valve cover. On 94-97 trucks theyʼre just under where the electrical connectors are on the gasket. These plugs are very tight; give them a sharp blow with a hammer and punch to help break them loose, then use a 1/8" Allen wrench. The oil will drain out into the valve train area and from there into the crankcase. Donʼt drop the plugs down the push rod holes! Also remove one of the plugs on top of each oil rail, (beside where the lines from the High Pressure Oil Pump enter) for a vent to allow air to enter so the oil can drain. The plugs are 5/8”. Inspect the plug O-rings and replace if necessary. If the plugs under the covers leak, it will cause a substantial loss of performance. When removing the injectors, oil and fuel from the passages in the cylinder head drains down through the injector bore into the cylinders. If not removed, this can hydro-lock the engine when cranking. There is a ~40cc dish in the center of each piston. Fluid accumulates in it, as well as in the corner on the outside of the piston between the piston top and the cylinder wall, due to the 45* slope of the cylinder bank.

  • Review of Advancement in Variable Valve Actuation of Internal Combustion Engines
    applied sciences Review Review of Advancement in Variable Valve Actuation of Internal Combustion Engines Zheng Lou 1,* and Guoming Zhu 2 1 LGD Technology, LLC, 11200 Fellows Creek Drive, Plymouth, MI 48170, USA 2 Mechanical Engineering, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 16 December 2019; Accepted: 22 January 2020; Published: 11 February 2020 Abstract: The increasing concerns of air pollution and energy usage led to the electrification of the vehicle powertrain system in recent years. On the other hand, internal combustion engines were the dominant vehicle power source for more than a century, and they will continue to be used in most vehicles for decades to come; thus, it is necessary to employ advanced technologies to replace traditional mechanical systems with mechatronic systems to meet the ever-increasing demand of continuously improving engine efficiency with reduced emissions, where engine intake and the exhaust valve system represent key subsystems that affect the engine combustion efficiency and emissions. This paper reviews variable engine valve systems, including hydraulic and electrical variable valve timing systems, hydraulic multistep lift systems, continuously variable lift and timing valve systems, lost-motion systems, and electro-magnetic, electro-hydraulic, and electro-pneumatic variable valve actuation systems. Keywords: engine valve systems; continuously variable valve systems; engine valve system control; combustion optimization 1. Introduction With growing concerns on energy security and global warming, there are global efforts to develop more efficient vehicles with lower regulated emissions, including hybrid electrical vehicles, electrical vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles. Hybrid electrical vehicles became a significant part of vehicle production because of their overall efficiency, and they still pose a significant cost penalty, resulting in a stagnant market penetration of 3.2% and 2.7% in 2013 and 2018, respectively, in the United States (US), for example [1].

  • Hydraulic Valve Remote Control System
    HYDRAULIC VALVE REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM OVERVIEW Nordic Flow Control’s compact design for our Hydraulic Valve Remote Control Systems does not compromise on power. Our systems operate at a higher torque level even with our smaller actuators. Submerged applications are available, and maintenance is possible even during operation. By having a hand pump in a deck box with solenoid valves, manual operations are now possible. Our Hydraulic Valve Remote Control Systems are tried and tested in the harshest conditions. The system consists of the hydraulic actuator, a power unit, solenoid valve cabinet, and the control station with operating system. Our actuators and control systems are able to match and operate valves with no limitations. BENEFITS • Able to operate bigger size valves with smaller actuators • Able to use for submerged applications • Cost efficient • Reliable • Able to operate at hazardous areas • Simplicity of design and control Nordic Flow Control Valve Remote Control Systems 1 COMPONENTS ACTUATORS Nordic Flow Control’s actuators are manufactured using sophisticated machinery in our own production plant. They convert hydraulic energy directly into a mechanical rotating movement by using the rack and pinion principle, elimi- nating cost from intensive servicing, maintenance and the sensitivity of transmission elements. Our actuators are created for durability, performance and cost effectiveness. Our new NRA series actuators are now more compact and provide higher torque at even smaller sizes. They have a longer life span, with higher efficiency. Polymer bearings for smaller actuators and ball bearings for bigger actuators are used to reduce friction between the parts. Mounting is according to ISO5211 standards, but can be customised to meet other requirements.
