Record 3 2004-05-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Fueling Systems (Motor Vehicles)
CONT

Sequential fuel injection is port injection timed to the opening of each injector's associated intake valve so that fuel is delivered to each cylinder in its proper firing sequence, not to part or all of the cylinders at once.

CONT

The engine employs sequential multiport electronic fuel injection, twin nozzle side-feed injectors, a four-stage variable induction system, and a cone-type airflow sensor.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Alimentation (Véhicules automobiles)
CONT

À bien des égards, l'injection directe représente une étape de plus dans l'évolution des systèmes d'alimentation des moteurs à essence. Lors de chaque étape de cette évolution (où l'on est passé du carburateur mécanique à l'injection monopoint et multipoint, puis à l'injection multipoint séquentielle), on a tiré avantage d'améliorations apportées aux injecteurs et aux systèmes de commande électroniques, pour réaliser des progrès graduels dans la maîtrise des moteurs à combustion interne.
