  • I know you don’t want advice. I know, but, there are meal replacements, that aren’t nothing but sugar, corn and soy crap, and are much more nutritionally complete. May be worth looking into them. Huel and Soylent (sold in Target for sure) are the first that come to mind. I understand if your reply is “thanks” just wanted to throw that out there, because I feel your pain.

    I have ALL kinds of GI issues. The latest GI I saw, after waiting like 2 years during covid (had one appt before lockdowns, and then had to wait), and then another like 4 months after I called to book an appointment, ran a HIDA scan, which came back as low/abnormal. His answer? Oh, well it’s too close to normal to do surgery, so just take miralax and don’t eat fatty foods. Gee thanks, why didn’t I think of that, professionally trained guesser extortionist? When asked if there were going to be long term effects from taking a laxative, like, idk making constipation worse, his answer? IDK, maybe?

    Good luck


  • for starters people around here tend to misinterpret what you’re saying accidentally or willfully, far more than my experience with reddit previously.

    Honestly, this is what has driven me away. No matter how innocuous something I say is, there are a bunch of “well, askshewly” asshats to argue an irrelevant part of your statement, or start the “whataboutism” shit. It’s exhausting, and frankly, takes all the fun out of it.

    That and the bots reposting reddit shit. I may as well go back to reddit. Plus Narwhal is still working…








  • There are a lot of variables your missing. One thing, afr doesn’t refer to liquid fuel.

    That’s said, you need to know things like (not a totally inclusive list, just first things that come to mind).

    Pulse width of injectors Are injectors batch fire or sequential (assuming fuel injected) Speed density or hot wire flow meter What’s the max output of the pump and injectors Battery voltage Sea level or altitude Ambient temp and humidity Displacement of engine Is the engine new and fresh or old and worn out? Fuel type and rating. Pump has? Methanol? Leaded? n2o?

    To give you a little reference, when we build smaller displacement engines for more power, we frequently use a 340lph pump. In a perfect world that means that pump can move 340 liters per hour. So in a perfect world at max duty cycle that pump (which is bigger than most factory pumps) can move absolutely maximum of 5.666666 liters per minute. There’s no way at 800rpm any engines are moving 4.5L like you’re figuring. But, pumps never run at max (maybe as a lift pump, maybe). Then you have to factor in restriction and what’s the output of the injector. It gets even more complex when you factor in fuel type and the rest of the questions I had above.

    Basically you need a LOT more info to accurately calculate consumption.
