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 ...

A The writer recently bought a 1989 Chevrolet Corsica with a 2.8-liter, fuel-injected V-6 engine. He wants to keep the car for at least 10 years, but knows nothing about the fuel-injection system. He ...

QUESTION: I was having a conversation about cars with my 14-year-old son, and the topic of fuel injection came up. He wanted to know how it works, and I began to tell him but then realized I was ...

Gregg Petersen's Hilborn-injected Chevette. The first thing you should understand is that direct-port, constant-flow fuel-injection—Hilborns, En-derles, Crowers, whatever—were never designed, nor ...

What is gasoline direct injection and how is it different from traditional methods of getting fuel into your car's engine? Antuan Goodwin Senior Writer, Electrified Cars Antuan started out in the ...

Long before electronic fuel injection or even performance Holley carburetors, high-end racers operating primarily at wide-open throttle used a purely mechanical, constant-flow fuel-injection system ...

Researchers have developed a promising yet surprisingly simple modification to diesel engines that could hold the key to reducing the complexity, maintenance, and size and weight of emission ...

Port fuel injection and direct injection are similar but distinct systems, so why do some engine designs include both?

Question: Can you explain how fuel injection works? I've been hearing about new ways this is done and realized I didn't understand the current kind. I grew up with carburetors and tinkered with them ...

Direct injection. Just about every car has it now, and those that don’t probably will in the next few years. It can add power, reduce emissions, and is a big part of why just about everybody is ...

1982 was a serious year of challenges facing Dave McLellan and his design team with several interesting “firsts.” 1982 was the first year since the ’53-’54 Corvettes that a manual transmission was not ...

Direct-injection engines are pretty common in new cars these days, but how exactly do they work? Well, this explainer video put together by the YouTubers at SavageGeese gives us an in-depth look at ...
