Forgot to comment on that Ford patent covering cooling the returned fuel....
Another indicator that there is a moisture issue (condensation) in the fuel tank.
Maybe emulsified H2O in the brew and will need to noodle how that witches brew
behaves with warm/hot returned fluids into a cooler (how much cooler?)
pool of fuel.
Then the various additives and their interplay with the base fuel
Is this a good assumption that the heated fuel returned has any H2O excised
during whatever goes on 'up there' ?
now that leads to vacuum in the pump shaft/cam/etc cavity. If there is, is it
pulling in external stuff via the bearing seal?
Then if it does, it matters where that cam cavity lube/fuel goes next. If into
the HIGH PSI piston, to then see high vacuum to be exposed to cavitation, or if
it goes back to the tank, then is it laden with some level of H2O and/or contaminates ?
Noticed that all this revolves around H2O and possible contaminates exposed to
cavitation
How does that sound? Make any sense?
