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 ...

Port fuel injection and direct injection are similar but distinct systems, so why do some engine designs include both?

Gasoline direct injection, or GDI, is one of the most crucial bits of technology in the modern internal combustion engine. In engines equipped with GDI, highly pressurized gasoline is sprayed directly ...

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, ...

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 ...

A Kia driver stopped into an unconventional place to get an oil change—an Advance Auto Parts—and that kicked off a conversation about a certain kind of engine and the love that it might require. 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 ...

The other day I dropped my car off at a European specialist shop, and while I was there, a technician was working in the engine bay of a Mk7 Golf R, cleaning out carbon deposits off the intake valves.

Fuel injector cleaner serves an important function in vehicle maintenance. Most vehicles sold today have fuel injectors. Those injectors work by delivering precise amounts of gasoline or diesel fuel ...

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 ...
