A friend had one fitted to a Jag with a Mk1 Lucas PI system. The can split with quite spectacular results. Presumably a "D" type, Lucas MK1 PI ran at higher pressure I think. Its a MK2 system on the Triumphs. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have the original handbook for a 1975 which states 1.27 litres, a Bentley manual which states the same and a Haynes manual which states 1.42 litres. I assume 1.27 is correct? Can anyone solve the riddle . The Bentley manual does mention1.42 for a pre 1970 USA model! Maybe that is the answer. Roger I can never get more than a 1 litre in (or out).

I would have thought it would take a least 170 psi to rupture it. Well above the PI system's working pressure. On 12/10/2020 at 11:56 PM, Mike C said: 8 bar is 116 psi rated pressure.

So far as I'm aware the Lucas mk1 and mk2 systems both run at 110psi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
