Moving right along... I tested and installed the fuel injection system.

The testing went rather well. The fuel distributor that came with this Euro S is a non-standard part with flow adjustment on each injector. I posted about this here:

The pic shows the test rig with that fuel distributor and new Bosch injectors for the Mercedes These are brass and a 1/2" shorted but cheaper.

The testing went very well. After getting the system fired up and all the injectors warmed up, the flow rates were very even. With the fuel distributor set for wide open, each gave 15-17 ml in 5 seconds. I found that each measurement going around between injectors was trending up. The first injector was 14ml and the last was 17 but checking the first it was 17, too. The spray patterns were great with gas mist coming from each.

I chose not to mess with the balance or worry about matching injectors to ports. Just installed the injectors and FD and connected up all the lines.

A few more minor bits to add and the engine will be ready to install!
