  2. Fuel injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_injection

    The Ford EEC-III single-point fuel injection system, introduced in 1980, was another early digital fuel injection system. [ 56 ] [ 57 ] These and other electronic manifold injection systems (using either port injection or throttle-body injection ) became more widespread through the 1980s, and by the early 1990s they had replaced carburettors in ...

  3. Gasoline direct injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_direct_injection

    The fuel being injected was described as being in vapour phase having been heated by the engine cylinder. The pressure of the fuel was regulated at the fuel pump, and the amount of fuel admitted was controlled by mechanical means at the rotary admission valve. It seems this radical design wasn't taken further by F. E. Baker.

  4. Common rail - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_rail

    Common rail fuel system on a Volvo truck engine. In 1916 Vickers pioneered the use of mechanical common rail systems in G-class submarine engines. For every 90° of rotation, four plunger pumps allowed a constant injection pressure of 3,000 pounds per square inch (210 bar; 21 MPa), with fuel delivery to individual cylinders being shut off by valves in the injector lines.

    In this case, the timing comes from the fuel injection system. Very small model engines for which simplicity and light weight is more important than fuel costs use easily ignited fuels (a mixture of kerosene, ether, and lubricant) and adjustable compression to control ignition timing for starting and running.

  6. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    Manifold injection is a mixture formation system for internal combustion engines with external mixture formation. It is commonly used in engines with spark ignition that use petrol as fuel, such as the Otto engine, and the Wankel engine.

  7. Rochester Ramjet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochester_Ramjet

    Rochester Ramjet system installed on a 1957 Chevrolet 210. The Rochester Ramjet is an automotive fuel injection system developed by the Rochester Products Division of General Motors and first offered as a high-performance option on the Corvette and GM passenger cars in 1957.

  8. Jetronic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetronic

    Mechanical fuel injection, 'K' stands for German: "Kontinuierlich", meaning continuous.Commonly called 'Continuous Injection System (CIS) in the USA. K-Jetronic is different from pulsed injection systems in that the fuel flows continuously from all injectors, while the fuel pump pressurises the fuel up to approximately 5 bar (73.5 psi).

  9. Petrol engine - Wikipedia

    A circa-1970 AMC 232 automotive engine. A petrol engine (gasoline engine in American and Canadian English) is an internal combustion engine designed to run on petrol (gasoline).
