[Question] - Felicia 1.3 MPi Alex HVAC unit
I have found that Bosch produces such fans 250/150W 280mm but with 2 codes. 0130 107 262: Not for cold climates 0130 109 237: for cold climates (a little bit higher price) The weird is that the local Skoda dealers and the spare part stores sell the 0130109237 model although here in Greece we have high temperatures. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/485671-bosch-radiator-fan-for-felicia-help-wanted/

1995 Skoda Felicia LX 1.3 54 HP - Where can I purchase carburetor from?
The line up included the old 1.3 litre overhead valve (OHV) Škoda petrol engines, now with Bosch Mono Motronic single point fuel injection (up until 1997), and Siemens Multi-point fuel injection, with two rated power outputs of 40 kW (54 PS; 54 bhp) and 50 kW (68 PS; 67 bhp). There were also two engines sourced from Volkswagen Group: a 55 kW (75 PS; 74 bhp) 1.6 litre petrol engine with Magneti Marelli multi point fuel injection, and a 47 kW (64 PS; 63 bhp) 1.9 D diesel engine.

[Question] - Felicia 1.3 MPi Alex HVAC unit
@theNFS25 as you already have seen @Thefeliciahacker has work on this matter, you can also ask for help from a fellow country man the @Papez is Czechian too. I have the same model and i have changed the radiator fan, also keep in mind that there are 2 radiators fans motors for warm and cold climates, radiators for vehicle with a/c or no.

Insulation of the fuel rail, worth it?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanOK then. When i find time i will put a heat shield on that tube and ''Case Closed". 🙁

D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanYes but except heat-shielding the rail tube what else can we do about it?

D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanIn Cold start at winter the heat insulation of the tube won't make things a bit worse? It will take more time to get heated so in short distances things will be worst than without heat shield, am i right? I have brought from grille a second tube inside the air filter box and i have worked inside of it. I am happy with the results.

Insulation of the fuel rail, worth it?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanThank you. I thought that with less (engine bay) temperature on the fuel rail the gasoline will be injected one click better and especially in a journey at summer this will affect positive the performance. By the way, article this https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214157X22005056 is ''too much'' for me. On the other hand this https://www.quora.com/Do-car-engine-temperatures-affect-how-the-fuel-injectors-work Do car engine temperatures affect how the fuel injectors work? Yes, car engine temperatures can significantly affect how fuel injectors work. Here are several ways in which engine temperature impacts fuel injector performance: -Fuel Atomization: Fuel injectors spray fuel into the combustion chamber, and the temperature of the engine can influence how well the fuel atomizes. At optimal temperatures, fuel atomization is efficient, leading to better combustion. If the engine is too cold, the fuel may not atomize properly, resulting in incomplete combustion and increased emissions. -Fuel Viscosity: The temperature of the fuel itself can change its viscosity. Colder temperatures can make the fuel thicker, which can affect how easily it flows through the injectors. Thicker fuel can lead to poor injector performance and uneven fuel delivery. -Injector Calibration: Fuel injectors are often calibrated based on specific temperature ranges. If the engine operates outside of these ranges, it can affect the injector's spray pattern, duration, and overall performance. This can lead to issues like stalling, rough idling, or poor acceleration. -Engine Control Unit (ECU) Adjustments: Modern engines are equipped with ECUs that monitor various parameters, including engine temperature. The ECU adjusts the fuel injection timing and quantity based on the engine's temperature to optimize performance and efficiency. If the engine is running too hot or too cold, the ECU may not be able to adjust the fuel delivery effectively. -Heat Soak: After the engine is turned off, residual heat can cause fuel in the injectors and lines to vaporize, leading to a condition called "heat soak." This can cause difficulties in starting the engine after it has been turned off for a short period. In summary, maintaining optimal engine temperatures is crucial for ensuring that fuel injectors operate efficiently and effectively, promoting better engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanAs the temperature rise the volume of the fuel does not rise a bit? In a hot summer day the temperature of the engine bay will rise more so that will affect the flow of the fuel inside the tube or not?

Minimum brake shoe material thickness (Felicia)
To be honest never measured this, seeing the brake performance and the clicks of the hand brake to get (much) higher in number i was ready for change. I don't think must be a lower limit to alarm you, all are in the road performance and not in the caliper.

Insulation of the fuel rail, worth it?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanI used a wrong word, i ment it's better for the fuel to be in higher temperature entering the combustion chamber or not? By insulating that tube the inside temperature will be one click lower, that's good for the fuel flow or does not matter at all?

Insulation of the fuel rail, worth it?
This is a photo of the (injection) fuel rail of Skoda Felicia. https://www.ekodiely.sk/photos/1/1012695/rijroe49tm.jpg Since the years as a student have passed long time ago, i wonder: what is the effect of engine bay's temperature on fuel flow? The gasoline in low or higher temperatures flows or evaporates faster? Here in Greece we don't have heavy winters but we have quite hot summers, what effect does the rising temperature have on the fuel flow? There is a pressure regulator, yes, but if with insulation we lower the temperature a little bit in this cylindrical tube, does this have anything to do with the easy flow of fuel to the injectors? There would be a (even the tiniest) benefit by heat insulating that tube from A to B? or i must leave it as is because that tube must let cool normally?

Has the UK market for classic Skodas died?
In Czechia an owner was asking for his Felicia with only 14.144 Km on the odometer the amount of 1.000.000 CzK or 41.000 eur back in 2022. https://autogreeknews.gr/nea/polla-diafora/diafora-nea/giati-ayti-i-skoda-felicia-poleitai-41-000-eyro
