Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS

ECU consists of a central control unit(CPU) or a microprocessor, random access memory(RAM), read only memory(ROM), and input/output interfaces. Based on information from input sensors(engine air flow, coolant temperature, crank position, throttle position, etc.), ECU determines optimum settings for the output actuators of fuel injection, ignition timing, idle speed, etc.  1, record 1, English, - computer%2Dcontrolled%20ignition%20system

L'ECU se compose d'une unité de contrôle centrale (CPU) ou d'un microprocesseur, d'une mémoire vive (RAM), d'une mémoire morte (ROM), et d'interfaces entrée/sortie. Selon les informations issues des capteurs d'entrée (débit d'air moteur, température du liquide de refroidissement, position de vilebrequin, position de l'accélérateur, etc.), l'ECU détermine les paramètres optimaux pour les actionneurs d'injection de combustible, d'avance à l'allumage, de ralenti, etc.  1, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20d%27allumage%20command%C3%A9%20par%20ordinateur

Fuel in the D4D is pressurised to an extremely high 135mpa within the "common rail" that feeds all four cylinders (older diesel engines have a separate pipe leading from the pump to each cylinder). The high pressure injection creates better fuel atomisation for complete burning and increased power output. And because there is less fuel wasted through inefficient combustion, the D4D delivers better fuel economy too.  3, record 4, English, - high%20pressure%20common%20rail

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

A common rail engine is designed to supply constant fuel pressure to electronically controlled injectors through a shared fuel reservoir. This means that the fuel supply is not dependent on the engine revs. A common rail system is built around four basic components : a high pressure pump with pressure regulator and inlet metering valve, a rail which contains a pressurised reserve of fuel, injectors which inject precise amounts of fuel into the combustion chamber as required and a Diesel Control Unit-the ’brain’ of the system, which precisely controls injector flow and timing as well as rail pressure while continuously monitoring the operating conditions of the engine.  4, record 4, English, - high%20pressure%20common%20rail

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Le secret de la «rampe commune», c'est son tube interposé entre la pompe d'injection et les injecteurs. Alors que dans un système d'injection directe classique, la pression dépend du régime-moteur, cette rampe commune, d'un volume de quelques centimètres cubes, va jouer le rôle de réserve de pression. Ainsi, quel que soit le régime-moteur, le moteur dispose d'une pression pouvant atteindre 1500 bars.  3, record 4, French, - rampe%20commune%20%C3%A0%20haute%20pression

Based on the VVT-i system, the VVTL-i system has adopted a cam changeover mechanism that varies the amount of lift of the intake and exhaust valves while the engine is operating at high speeds. In addition to achieving higher engine speeds and higher outputs, this system enables the valve timing to be optimally set, resulting in improved fuel economy.  1, record 5, English, - Variable%20Valve%20Timing%20and%20Lift%20with%20Intelligence
