Ford Motor has patented a method for adjusting injection timing of closely spaced multiple injections using the same injector. The system adjusts timing based on previous injections, optimizing fuel ...
ABSTRACT Due to its ease of use in diesel engines, its presumably lower carbon footprint, and its potential as a renewable fuel, biodiesel has attracted considerable attention in technological ...
The clearances inside diesel injection system parts are closer than those found in any other technology. The plungers and needle valves in injectors need to fit tightly to ensure precise metering and ...

When getting to know each diesel engine in the truck market, it’s important to know its lifeblood: how it gets its fuel. Because the injection pump is at the heart of everything in a diesel powerplant ...
Carburetors, that's what. Beautifully simple in their basic operation, carburetors took advantage of the basic premise of physics that a fluid in motion (in this case, air flowing through the venturis ...
The basic difference between direct injection (DI) and the port-fuel injection (PFI) systems we've become familiar with since the mid-1980s is that PFI sprays fuel into the intake manifold (behind ...
