Diesel injectors have gotten increasingly complex over the last twenty years of diesel development, but their basic design is fairly simple. Diesel fuel from the injection pump enters the mechanical ...

Most people know that internal combustion engines require a fuel source to run. For many passenger cars and trucks, that fuel source is gasoline. However, many commercial vehicles, boats, farming ...

Fuel injectors are the heart of a vehicle’s fuel system. Because they keep the fuel supply running smoothly, when an injector experiences a problem, the whole engine suffers the consequences. Because ...

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 ...

Diesel engines use compression to ignite the fuel, which needs to have an even burn, and cetane boosters have an important ...

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 ...

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 ...

Sandia National Laboratories researchers (left to right: Nathan Harry, Christopher Nilsen, Drummond Biles, and Charles Mueller) show off their prototype of ducted fuel injection module for diesel ...

Fuel injectors can get gummed up with dirt and fuel residue over time. Photo credit: David Traver Adolphus / Autoguide.com. Over time and miles, your car might start to slow down. It might not ...

Endurance Warranty, Omega Auto Care, Toco Warranty and American Dream Auto Protect An auto warranty comes in handy when something goes wrong with your car, especially when it comes to parts like your ...

Having fuel injectors on all mass-produced vehicles is one of the biggest automotive breakthroughs of the past few decades. If you've ever gone through having to start an engine with a poorly tuned ...
