Bosch VE Pump: Governor mod, timing spring, and how it all works!

Olly splits open his VW 1.6L NA fuel pump to show you whats inside, how it works, and how to make it more powerful.
This will make any stock 1.6L a beast. No more foot on the floor trying to go 70 mph, instead, snappy throttle response & lots of fuel!
Hope you enjoy :D

***Important note, you do not need to remove the pump to perform this modification!! Mine was already off the car.

For a daily fast driver i would probably just put 2-3 washers on to make the spring harder. and marking the shaft in relation to the lever saves a lot of guessing, Just my 2 cents looking forward to seeing how it drives

You are really good at explaining stuff. I'm pro-freedom and I like to use my own mind; therefore, I hate governors, too. I got 2 MK2 Jetta diesels, and an 81 Wabbit. You are helping me enjoy all the work needed to keep these things reliable. Thanks brother!

You're doing god's work making 1.6D content!

Thats brave running no main spring. You won't have any max rev limiter anymore.

injection pump videos are extremly rare, good work, lets see this little rabbit with 150hp

Gez, OLIVER!!! ADVANCED TIMING SPRING NEEDS TO SOFTER AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO GET PROPER BURN OF ALL THAT FUEL. YOU DID TOTALLY OPPOSITE BRO.

[@ericdrivesjettas]

According to the forums the best result is to shim the main spring 5mm. Wont affect/change drivability characteristics and give the added fuel you desire in the higher rpms. Ill practice on a core pump i have and then try it on my td pump in the future

One thing to make sure, when you put the linkage back in, make sure you put it back in correctly/rotated in the right direction. If you put it in the wrong way, it can cause runaway as soon as the engine is started.

This might be a noob question but isnt changing to a bigger plunger just the same as increasing fuel supply on the max power fuel screw? For exemple, a 10mm with increased fuel screw would deliver the same fuel as 11mm with stock fuel screw no? Thanks
