The purpose of the individualized, self-paced course is to provide the student with a general knowledge of the principles of fuels and the function, opercAtion, and maintenance of components utilized in fuel systems. The course is suggested for use as a subunit in an engine repair or design course. Five lessons cover these topics: introduction to fuels and fuel systems, fuel system components, carburetor circuits, gasoline fuel-injection systems, and multifue1 systems. Study texts for each lesson contain objectives, study assignment text material, review exercises, and answers to the exercises. A special section entitled "Fuel Injection" is also included. A course examination is included, but no answers are provided.

OBJECTIVES (Cont.) • Explain the overall objectives of an engine fuel system. • Describe the relationship between cylinder pressure and crank throw to crank axis angle. • Relate how the fuel system manages engine cylinder pressures. OBJECTIVES (Cont.) • Describe the relationship between pumping, injection, and combustion in hydromechanical and electronic engines. • Understand why “smart” injector nozzles are required on most post-2007 diesel engines. • Outline the reasons why diesel engines have to be governed. OBJECTIVES (Cont.) • Classify governors by management mode. • Interpret electronic governor performance terminology. • Interpret a flat profile diesel engine fuel map. OVERVIEW OF DIESEL FUEL INJECTION PRINCIPLES • The fuel system manages the engine. • The timing and quantity of fuel introduced into the engine cylinders determine: Engine power and engine emissions. OVERVIEW OF DIESEL FUEL INJECTION PRINCIPLES Diesel engines can be managed in two ways: 1. Hydromechanical engine management (engines managed without a computer). 2. Electronic management (engines managed by computer). Managing Fueling Outcomes • Timing • Pressurizing and atomization • Metering • Distribution Managing Fueling Outcomes • Timing, Fuel delivery timing is critical during all engine operating phases. • Typically, fuel injection begins just slightly before the piston completes its compression stroke.

Please discard PIP4949C. The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI. Condition/Concern A dealer may encounter a customer concern of a hard start or a no start. DTCs P0087, P0088, P0191 or P128e may also be found. Normal SI Diagnostics may be inconclusive or lead to Fuel Injection Pump replacement. Recommendation/Instructions Complete the current SI diagnostics for any symptoms or DTCs found. If the current SI diagnostic has led to Fuel Injection Pump replacement, Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 must be inspected for magnetic metal debris. Note: Clean the area around regulator 1 before removal. It is possible that road debris could find its way to the regulator when it is removed. A small piece of dirt does not qualify the fuel system for the repairs recommended in this PI. Please see the pictures below for examples. Remove the Fuel Injection Pump / Pressure Regulator 1 for inspection. 1 The picture above is an example of a clean Pressure Regulator 1. If Pressure Regulator 1 is clean and there is no magnetic metal debris found, complete the SI repair procedure and replace the Fuel Injection Pump. 2 The pictures above are examples of Pressure Regulator 1 with the magnetic debris described If Pressure Regulator 1 is contaminated with debris as shown above, complete the following repairs: If working on a C/K Truck, it is strongly recommended to remove the engine from the vehicle and secure it to an engine stand to properly complete the repairs.

  • Electronically Controlled Diesel Injection Systems for Cars
    ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED DIESEL INJECTION SYSTEMS FOR CARS DIESEL KNOW-HOW DIESEL KNOW-HOW 2 | 3 HISTORY OF THE DIESEL ENGINE Diesel engines have long been established in passenger cars. Nearly every other new vehicle has a compression-ignition engine under the hood. These engines feature high torque and running smoothness, low consumption and low emissions. Their history is more than 100 years old. Milestones of the diesel engine 1897 1936 First diesel engine is introduced First series passenger car with 1927 diesel engine 1975 Diesel injection pump is ready for Distributor-type injection pump used series production in mass-produced models In 1892, Rudolf Diesel began researching his idea for a their trucks and agricultural vehicles with the new diesel completely new internal combustion engine with self-ignition. injection system. Not until five years later was he able to present the first diesel engine to the world. Increasing application variety It was 20 up at 175 RPM. Compared to the popular engine The diesel engine found more and more areas of application. concepts of the time, such as steam-engines and gasoline Along with trucks and tractors, diesel locomotives, ships, engines, Diesel‘s design had crucial advantages: Its engine airships and even airplanes (1929 Junkers, 1930 Fiat) were burned less fuel and was able to be set up for higher outputs. equipped with compression-ignition engines. Diesel‘s invention was first implemented in stationary and ship engines. High-speed diesel engines could not be implemented Injection systems for passenger cars, the most lucrative in the beginning because, in the early days, the fuel was product field in terms of numbers, initially remained injected into the combustion chamber using compressed air.

  • 08-10 Ford Powerstroke 6.4 Diagnostics
    2008– 2010 6.4L Ford Powerstroke In order to do proper diagnostics you will need a scan tool, preferably Ford IDS, and some special tools. Also note that 1 MPa (megapascal) is equal to approximately 145 PSI, 100 kpa is roughly 14.5 PSI. If you don’t have service information you can buy a subscription online at alldatadiy.com or eAutorepair.net. 6.4L High Pressure Common Rail Basic Information The high pressure fuel injection pump increases the fuel pressure up to 169.96 MPa (24,650 psi) and delivers fuel to the fuel rails through 2 high pressure lines, 1 per bank. The system pressure generated by the high pressure fuel injection pump is constantly adjusted by the powertrain control module (PCM) for every operational condition. However, due to the storage volume of the fuel rails, the injection pressure remains constant over the duration of the injection process. Each fuel rail is connected to 4 injectors through individual high pressure pipes. The injectors are controlled by the PCM and are capable of delivering exact fuel quantity based on the operational demands. The fuel injectors are operated in 3 stages: fill stage, main injection stage and end of main injection stage. The fill stage (pre-injection) reduces the combustion noise, mechanical load and exhaust emissions. When the PCM commands the fuel injector on, the piezo actuator is energized and pushes the valve piston downward. The downward force ofInjection the valve piston pushes the fuel injector valve and fuel injector valve return spring down which opens up a bore hole that connects the control piston chamber with the fuel return chamber.

  • Wear in High Speed Diesel Engines Operating on Power Alcohol As Principal Fuel
    WEAR IN HIGH SPEED DIESEL ENGINES OPERATING ON POWER ALCOHOL AS PRINCIPAL FUEL BY M. R. K. RAO AND Y. M. BALAKR1SHNA (Department of Internal Combustion Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore 3) Received October 16, 1956 SUMMARY Wear tests were conducted with a single cylinder, direct injection, 5 I-I.P.-1,500 r.p.m. diesel engine for a period of 1,000 hours using power alcohol as principal fuel. During the first 500 hours of the test, an alcohol-water blend (85-15 by vol.) was inducted with the inlet air and neat alcohol was inducted during the remaining period. Throughout the test H.S.D. oil was injected in the normal way to initiate combustion. It is concluded from these tests that prolonged operation of a diesel engine with neat alcohol as the principal fuel does not lead to any adverse effect on the rate of wear. Besides, there is a noticeable reduction of engine deposits. While the presence of water is conducive to engine cleanliness it is advisable to restrict its content in the blend on account of its adverse effect on wear. I. INTRODUCTION Investigations on the use of power alcohol as fuel for high speed diesel engines have, in the past, been directed towards the combustion process and the general performance of the engine.* The present report relates to an investigation aimed at assessing the effects of prolonged operation with alcohol on engine wear. Tests were conducted for this purpose with a high speed diesel engine for a period of 1,000 hours.
