Direct-injection engines were introduced with a promise that sounded ideal: more power, better fuel efficiency, and cleaner emissions, all from a more precise way of delivering fuel. On paper, the ...

Port fuel injection (PFI) was a major milestone in the early '80s. The integration of PFI rapidly changed the way fuel was delivered by increasing fuel economy and improving engine performance. Even ...

In the past, race-type constant flow fuel injection (Fl) systems have met with little success on the street. Usually designed only for high-speed idle and wide-open throttle (WOT) operation, such ...

If you’re in fleet management or the construction industry, you undoubtedly have machines that run on diesel fuel. In addition to large trucks, more than 75% of all heavy construction equipment uses ...

We often talk about the benefits of fuel injection on off-road vehicles. Generally, these systems run more reliably than carbureted systems, but they are, at the end of the day, a bit more complex ...

Electronic fuel injection revolutionized the auto industry in the 1980s. It came to replace the carburetor in the task of sending fuel to the engine's cylinders but it does much more: it controls ...

While carbon buildup happens on essentially all engines, gasoline, diesel, N/A, or boosted, it's an increased concern in GDI engines. Standard Electronic Fuel Injection features injectors higher in ...

Fuel injection, it’s the wave of the future. Well, at least it was in the late 1970s and early 1980s. This was really the dark ages of fuel delivery in cars and trucks. Carburetors worked pretty well ...

The diesel engine dates back to the 1890s when Rudolf Diesel, a German inventor and mechanical engineer, created the powerplant for use in commercial power generation applications. The design ...
