FSM Induction CalibrationSingle Cylinder (1 Throttle Bore)

Fuel Delivery, Throttle Body Synchronization & Manometer Balancer

Factory intake depression specifications (250 mmHg), electronic fuel pump pressure testing (43.5 PSI), injector resistance, and interactive multi-column manometer balancing.

Warm Idle: 1,250 - 1,350 RPM

Quick Workshop Diagnostic Presets

Simulate Throttle Linkage Asymmetry, Hunting Idle, or Intake Boot Vacuum Leaks

OPTIMAL SYNCHRONIZATION: BALANCED (Δ ≤ 10 mmHg)

Diagnostics:Max Differential: Δ 0 mmHg (Factory Max Tolerance: ≤ 10 mmHg)

All 1 throttle plates pull uniform intake depression within factory engineering tolerance (≤ 10 mmHg / 1.33 kPa). Delivers immediate linear throttle pickup, silky smooth idle, uniform cylinder torque pulses, and balanced exhaust temperatures.

Workshop Multi-Column Fluid Manometer

Damped intake depression columns. Target spec: 250 mmHg (±10 mmHg) at warm idle (1,250 - 1,350 RPM).

Reference: Single Carburetor / Throttle Body

Mechanism: Bypass Screws

±0 mmHg (Exact Target)

Fixed Reference Master. Synchronize all slave throttle bodies to match this column.

Vacuum Take-Off Ports: Intake petcock vacuum nipple on carburetor/intake spigot

Damping Protocol: Restrictor valves must be adjusted until columns oscillate no more than ±5 mmHg per intake stroke.

Fuel Pump Pressure & 5-Min Hold Test

EFI Pressure Rail

Running Fuel Pressure

43.5 PSI(3.00 bar)

OEM Running Spec

43.5 PSI (±3 PSI)

PASS: WITHIN OEM RUNNING SPEC

Fuel pump delivery pressure is 43.5 PSI (Factory spec: 43.5 PSI ± 3 PSI / 3 bar). High-pressure regulator and pump rotor operating within factory design threshold.

Connect mechanical gauge to the quick-disconnect fuel rail fitting using an OEM banjo or T-adapter.

Fuel Injector Resistance & Induction Specs

Multimeter Bench Check

OEM Injector Solenoid Resistance

11.8 - 12.4 Ω at 20°C

Measure across injector 2-pin harness socket with ignition OFF. Internal coil resistance increases by ~0.4% per °C rise above 20°C (68°F). Replace injector if resistance reads open (> 100 kΩ) or shorted (< 2 Ω).

Bore Diameter

Operating Temp

80°C (176°F)

Induction Type

Keihin 34mm Digital Fuel Injection

Injector O-rings must be lubricated with a light coat of clean engine oil before seating into fuel rail.

0 of 4 Steps Complete

1CLICK TO MARK DONE

Engine Pre-Flight Conditioning

Check and adjust valve clearances to spec before attempting sync. Ensure air filter is clean, spark plugs are fresh, and engine is fully warmed to operating temperature (warm idle).

2CLICK TO MARK DONE

Manometer Connection & Damping

Connect 1-column liquid or digital manometer hoses to Intake petcock vacuum nipple on carburetor/intake spigot. Adjust in-line hose restrictor valves to dampen rapid intake pulsation until fluid columns stabilize.

3CLICK TO MARK DONE

Balance Screw Calibration

With engine idling at 1,250 - 1,350 RPM, identify Single Carburetor / Throttle Body. Adjust Idle air screw with DFI ECU idle control until all cylinder columns are within 0 mmHg (0.00 kPa) of the master reference.

4CLICK TO MARK DONE

Throttle Blip & Locknut Verification

Blip throttle to 3,000 RPM 2–3 times and verify columns return evenly to idle balance. Tighten any balance screw locknuts securely, re-install rubber vacuum sealing caps, and verify idle speed.
