Fuel Injection Flashcards
What are the two major fuel injection systems?
-Direct Fuel Injection
-Continuous-Flow Injection
Which fuel injection system is not very commonly used?
Direct
(Fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber)
What is the most commonly used fuel injection system?
Continuous Flow
(Fuel is injected continuously into the intake port)
What are the two types of fuel injection systems?
-Bendix
-Continental
What are the 5 primary components in the Bendix (RSA) system?
-Venturi
-Fuel Metering
-Mixture Control
-Fuel Regulation
-Flow Divider
What are the differences between the Bendix system and the Continental system? (Fuel injection)
Bendix
-Similar to pressure carbs
-Has 4 chambers for Venturi Air, Impact Air, Unmetered Fuel, Metered Fuel
-Has bellows and diaphragms
Continental
-Continuous flow system
-NO Venturi or bellows
-Has injector nozzles
How do you determine the size of an injector jet?
-Fuel inlet pressure
-Maximum fuel flow
-Plus/minus 2%
How can you identify the type of injection nozzle?
-Hex flat
-Single letter identifier
Injector nozzles are interchangeable with cylinders and engines of the same type. True or False?
True
