Explain that please. That is how diesel engines are regulated, by the flow of fuel. more fuel, more power. less fuel less power. explain what problems it causes.
Two things:
Most problematic is injector pump starving for fuel. That means the innards of the injector pump are turning with no fuel for cooling or lubrication.
Second fuel injected into cylinders provides a cooling effect. Some racing engines go so far as to inject water also for cooling. Running lean on some cylinders while normal on others can cause overheating.
If the injection pump is starving for fuel, its not going to run much. If its turning with no fuel, how does the engine run?
That little mist of fuel isn't providing cooling either. ITS BURNING. Its not water. This isn't a race or pulling engine, day and night difference from an everyday work horse.
How often to change fuel filters on tractors.
