You want just enough idle jet for a
good idle quality, then choose your main jet for the rest of the fuel ratio.
With dual - independent VVA, these engines can now benefit from overlap control and significantly
improved idle quality at low speed.
The pioneering use of these two technologies in combination allows the Mulsanne's engine management system not only to adjust the V8's breathing for improved
engine idle quality and torque delivery, but also to close the valves of four of the eight cylinders for maximum fuel economy when cruising.
The low valve lift cam profile is used at low to mid engine speeds to
maintain idling quality and reduce emissions, while the high lift cam profile is used when the engine is spinning at mid to high engine speeds improve peak horsepower and torque.
A cast - iron engine block is matched with a durable rotating assembly that delivers a pump - gas - friendly 9.0:1 compression ratio, as well as a smooth hydraulic roller camshaft that complements power delivery with a
great idle quality.
Cleaning it didn't have any effect on
my idle quality.
The rollers improved
idle quality and fuel economy by reducing friction between the camshaft and the older followers, and increased engine life, especially in colder climates (or with owners who put in lower - quality oil).
Idle quality was improved by cutting valve overlap by 30 % (this had already been used on 2.2 Turbo I and II engines in 1988).
