• F20A 's resistors*' location ( below bonnet, too hot ) is very wrong.

    From TE Cheah@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 26 08:01:35 2021
    * own heat when input voltage is 13.5 v is already 13.5²/ 9.2 ( 7 + 2.2 ohm ) = 19.8 watt ( assuming 4 injectors in total receive current all the time ), hit by hot air from 2 radiators, so * are hot : *'s heat flow toward injectors, so injectors are
    too hot for nozzles to be clean.
    In 2-10 I used a 3½ amp buck convertor, 1 diode, 5 capacitors ( 0.15 F ) & 1 inductor ( 94 mH ) to feed 4.5 v to injectors : wax clogging nozzles came loose 1 by 1, each time I could feel a small ↑ in torque.
    This mth I put * ( with 5 extn wires ) in the space under wiper arm, tape a aluminium dish onto *'s ceramic, file & flatten *'s hsink fins by ½ mm, rub silicone on fins, fit a big 2ndary hsink, put a polystyrene tray underneath, * & wires then much
    cooler. Idle rpm ↑300, torque ↑15%, coolant's heat ↓10%.

    Correction : heat is just 19.8 w x 7/9.2 = 15.07 w. I fitted a W shape hsink ( floppy disk cover ) onto end of *' hsink, 2 polystyrene sheets to shield * : torque ↑ another 5% !

    Torque slowly ↑10% in 6-21 ! In 10-21 1 taped 2 hsinks on resistors' 2ndary*hsink's side fins' centres ( contact area ~1 sq" each ) : *s heat ↓20%, coolant & alternator's ↓10% : after 3 wk ( 44 litre RON 95 ) torque suddenly ↑8% ! So far,
    torque ↑ by nearly 1/3rd since 1-21, just by cooling resistors ( space below wiper entirely covered by polystyrene sheets ). Now idle air screw can be turned to minimum ( rpm ~800 when warm ) w-o stalling ( when moving fr still, or stopping ) !
