Delphi is developing an engine fuel injection technology that could improve the fuel economy of gas-powered cars by 50 percent, potentially rivalling the performance of hybrid vehicles at less cost.
High-pressure common rail fuel (HPCR) systems are standard on nearly every diesel engine today, from heavy equipment to over-the-road trucks, light-duty trucks, large generators and more. HPCR fuel ...
A classic car is more than a way to get from A to B. It is a rolling time capsule, and few parts define its character as strongly as the way it breathes and burns fuel. The argument over whether a ...
Variable injection pressures help displace the diesel particulate filter while dialing up a 12% increase in torque that can be varied to reduce fuel consumption Bobcat Eliminates the DPF on Tier 4 500 ...

July 14, 2009 Nissan today announced it has developed a Dual Injector system designed to improve fuel efficiency in small-displacement gasoline engines. The new fuel delivery system, claimed to be the ...
For simplicity's sake,let's just say there are two kinds of fuel injectors: peak and hold and saturated. The difference between the two has to do with resistance. Peak and hold (aka low impedance) ...
As part of an overall environmental strategy initiated 2 years ago to reduce its environmental "footprint" worldwide, Noble Corp., Houston, has targeted its diesel-powered drilling rigs for total ...
Fuel injection technology revolutionized the automotive industry, which helped make cars much faster. Additionally, fuel injection makes combustion engines more efficient and cleaner. But not many ...
We used to be carburetor junkies. When fuel injection started showing up on our fullsize trucks, we were in a hissy-fit about a fuel delivery system that couldn't be readily modified. Then we finally ...
Fleets expecting better fuel economy and reliability have a lot to look forward to if the engine makers’ claims are accurate. Photo: Jim Park There’s a new crop of engines on the street now that’s ...
