Running a 2056 with Ljet, 9550 cam, 50mm TB, and 9:1 CR. Getting just over 15 mpg. Plugs look good, slight tan. Thoughts?

Are you using 1.8 injectors or 2.0?

2.0 will likely flow more per squirt which would cause richness.

L-Jet injectors are not compatible with D-Jet injectors. The are electrically different.

The stock L-Jet injectors were right at the limit on a stock 1.8L engine. Use the injectors from a 912E (same injectors were used on a 1980 Nissan 280ZX)

Standard Motor Products Fuel Injector
Part Number: 6639-05181321
Brand: Standard Motor Products


They flow more than the stock 1.8L injectors, and will correct for the cam and additional displacement of the modified engine.

An aftermarket fuel pressure regulator does not have the vacuum connection to adjust the fuel pressure upwards at high vacuum conditions. That would account for the running lean at idle.

Use the stock pressure regulator, but bigger injectors.

@ClayPerrine

They are a 100% bolt on solution. The 912E used L-Jet injection, and the injectors are are, other than the flow rate, identical to the 914 1.8L injectors. I have a set on the engine from Betty's car.
