Study Notes
Fuel-Injection System Components
- The airflow regulation in the fuel-injection system is managed by the throttle valve, which adjusts the amount of air entering the engine based on the driver's input.
- In contrast to conventional carburetor systems, a key advantage of fuel-injection systems is their improved fuel efficiency, leading to better engine performance and lower emissions.
Functionality of the Flow Divider
- The flow divider in a fuel-injection system ensures balanced fuel distribution among multiple engine cylinders, maintaining optimal performance and preventing uneven fuel delivery.
Air-Fuel Mixture Control
- In the Continental/TCM fuel-injection system, the fuel control unit is responsible for determining the air-fuel mixture, optimizing combustion processes for efficiency.
Benefits of Fuel Injection
- Fuel injection offers advantages over systems with a richer mixture by providing more precise fuel delivery, resulting in enhanced power output, reduced fuel consumption, and minimized exhaust emissions.
