Why some engines have both port and direct injection
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 ...
While significant sooty black deposits—and even, occasionally, visible puffs coming from the tailpipe—used to be a sign your gasoline car needed a tune-up, they’re a normal fact of life with many ...
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 ...
But the industry shift didn’t happen without complications; these new engines have faced three big challenges: chain wear, fuel dilution, and LSPI. In this video we’ll discuss the differences between ...
Most new petrol cars you see today are equipped with fuel injection systems or injector motors. These have almost wholly supplanted older carburetor motors. They are more reliable, effective, and ...
SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 13, No. 1 (2020), pp. 77-92 (16 pages) At gasoline direct injection, light-duty engines operated with homogeneous, stoichiometric combustion mode, ...
Automakers have long touted the benefits of fuel injection, claiming increased efficiency and power. But as more cars have the system installed (around 73% in 2023), more and more consumers are ...
The fuel injection pressures used in gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines have increased in recent years to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Current GDI engines use injection pressures ...
Knowing the inner workings of a vehicle comes with its set of benefits. You know the risks associated with potential issues, understand the causes, and can quickly fix things DIY-style. It is ...
