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 ...

High-pressure common-rail injection technology has revolutionized the diesel industry. Over the last decade, it has allowed engine builders to run higher injection pressures (as much as 29,000 psi in ...

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.

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 ...

The key ingredient to maximizing the peak performance of a diesel engine is increasing the amount of diesel being burned. On old mechanical-injection engines, the only way to do this was to modify the ...

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 ...

The second generation of 5.9L Cummins engine from 1994 to 1998 is one of the most desirable diesel engines – largely used in Dodge Rams — due to their power and durability. This is in part due to the ...

People who purchased select models of Chevrolet and GMC trucks may be eligible for payments of up to $12,700 as part of a $35 million settlement involving defective fuel injector pumps. The settlement ...
