The fuel injection pump is the heart of the diesel engine. Precisely delivered fuel maintains a rhythm or timing that keeps the engine running smooth. Simultaneously, the pump also controls the amount ...

The diesel industry uses two basic styles of mechanical injection pumps: the inline and rotary. In most applications, the inline pumps are attached to inline engines (due to packaging), while the ...

Electronic fuel injection is older than you think, the earliest example being the failed Bendix Electrojector system from 1957. Bosch bought the rights to the Eletrojector system and developed it into ...

Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios than gasoline engines, and fuel is injected under much higher pressure. An injection pump, usually driven by a belt or chain linked to the ...

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 ...

Starting in 2011, Ford and General Motors began using Bosch Mobility CP4 pumps to provide high pressure fuel to their diesel engines. GM used the pump on its 6.6-liter LGH and LML Duramax diesel ...

It's an amazing time when there's new technology in the industry as it forces a new rivalry in speed parts, and direct-injection is firmly in the high-performance arena whether anyone likes it or not.

Picture an old windup desk clock. Now cross it with a gasoline engine, adding a tiny crankshaft and pistons. Tack on a few Buck Rogers bits, so it looks like Rube Goldberg's toaster. Flow gasoline ...
