It is correct, in principle, that the nozzles work if opened to atmosphere on a NA engine. The Renesis engine has it that way. However, if the valves are connected to the intake plenum, the system works as designed.

Richard, are you saying that the metering oil nozzles that inject oil into the combustion chamber should have a vacuum line attached to the top opening of the injector nozzle?  I recall a discussion some time ago where I thought you said that it was OK for those connections to be open to the atmosphere.

Bob,

 

you have to use these injector valves for the oil injection to work. Yes, the vacuum lines need to be hooked up to the intake plenum.

Did you guys use the stock metering oil pump injector valves? If so, did you just hook the vacuum lines to the intake plenum?
