Automotive Injection Systems

Introduction & History

Carburettor: First fuel supply system Used in cars, motorbikes, lawnmowers, generators Industry growth needed more efficient & controllable system

Emission laws & fuel economy

The good old Weber 48.

Introduction & History

Brief use of electrically controlled carburettors more complicated Throttle body fuel injection systems (single point, or central) Multi-point injection

Throttle body injection kit.

Introduction & History

The catalytic converter: one of the reasons electronically controlled injection systems had to be introduced.
