T595 Injectors

Evening to all in the madhouse,

I'm getting closer to the final stages of my engine rebuild and one thing I was a bit concerned about was if the injectors are maybe passing?

When I first got the bike it had been sat in someone's shed for years and not covered much miles, the oil was a green colour and stank of petrol. I didn't think much of it at the time and just put it down to being sat.

But when I serviced it and done a few hundred miles on it, had oil starvation issues and spun a big end shell I remembered about the oil being thin before and when I started stripping it down, I noticed the oil was a bit thin and it had only got a few hundred miles on it.

I guess what I'm asking is does this sound like it could be the root cause of my woes?

Does anyone know how to test injectors and are they worth trying to repair?

Or is there anywhere you can send them to get tested and serviced if possible?

I just don't want to do all this work for it to only happen again a couple hundred miles down the road.

Sorry for the speel and thanks in advance for any pointers

 

Thanks, dude. Is there any test kits that you can buy to test a home or is it quite specialist tooling?

 

Awesome, thanks for the info on rough estimates on pressure, for some reason I had 2 bar in my head for fuel pressure but I've no idea where that came from so will aim for around 30 psi and see how it goes and thanks for the info about spray pattern etc.

I don't have any kit that I can rig up at the minute but I'll have a think about it and keep an eye out for anything that could work. I think my pal has a spare fuel pump from a cbr, might ask for a lend of it and see what I can jerry rig together will have a look online for some fittings and pressure gauge.

Once I've gotten the head finished and rebuilt back onto the block I'll make a start on the injectors and if I remember I'll post some pics up of what I've set up.

Thanks again pal

 

Just text him and he does not have a spare fuel pump. I definitely just imagine things

Might be able to put something together with the fuel tank and fuel rail come to think of it

 

Out in the shed and very quickly chucked together a wee set up to check the sealing of the injectors and it worked but the fuel line o-rings passed so will replace them and try again. No way of knowing what actual pressure is in the fuel rail but I know roughly how long the pump runs when the engine primes so will just do around that time and hope for the best! Yeeha (insert cowboy emoji)
