Fuel Injectors,
device incorporated into the emissions system of an automobile that reduces
the amount of pollutants in the automobile's exhaust gases. Lead-free gasoline
must be used in automobiles that have fuel injectors; other-wise the fuel
emission system will not function properly. Since the 1970s, state and national
governments in the United States have passed increasingly stringent emission-
control measures.
In the Fuel
injection parts market. we believe there
is no better product than Bosch fuel injectors.We
maintain a vast inventory of these and other Bosch
products. Fuel injectors have always been a fairly high-tech device, even though their function and operation is fairly simple. Functionally, an electric fuel injector is nothing more than a solenoid valve, and all it needs to operate is just the right voltage and current at the right time -- no problem for a computer. Mechanical injectors are poppet valves, and the fuel pressure and flow that operates them also is easily controlled by a computer. But before modern materials and computer-controlled production equipment were available, it wasn't even possible to make gasoline fuel injectors as we know them today. If you think about what it takes to make those tiny passages, intricately shaped pintles, precision-ground valve seats and closely calibrated springs, it's easy to see that injectors are a very complex mechanical device. It's also easy to see how little it takes to clog those tiny passages. In fact, given enough time in service, almost every injector will eventually fail, often due to clogging. |
