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 ...

It's very common knowledge that engines rely on fluids to operate. While the various oils, water, and fuels are referred to as a powerplant's "life bloods," the latter liquid—diesel, for our ...

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 ...

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.

High-pressure common rail fuel (HPCR) systems are standard on nearly every diesel engine today, from heavy equipment to over-the-road trucks, light-duty trucks, large generators and more. HPCR fuel ...

The once-almighty Mitsubishi Motors may have relegated themselves to building cheap small cars and Nissan-derived crossovers, but it was an indomitable powerhouse of innovation back in the day.

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 ...

and was designed to offer a more consistent method of delivering fuel. How does mechanical fuel injection work? Early mechanical fuel systems typically relied on a complicated fuel pump that would ...
