Fuel Charging and Controls
Fuel Charging and Controls
The fuel charging and control system consists of the:
- Throttle Body (TB).
- fuel rail.
- fuel injectors.
- Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM).
The fuel charging and controls system is:
- a Sequential Multi-Port Fuel Injection (SFI).
- pulse-width modulated.
- Mass Air Flow (MAF) controlled.
- fuel rail pressure and temperature sensor.
Throttle Body (TB)
The TB:
- controls air supply to the intake manifold by electronically positioning the throttle plate.
- is not adjustable.
Fuel Injectors
The fuel injectors:
- are electrically operated by the PCM.
- atomize the fuel as the fuel is delivered.
- are deposit-resistant and self-cleaning.
- each have an internal solenoid which opens a needle valve to inject fuel into the lower intake manifold.
Fuel Rail
The fuel rail:
- delivers fuel to the individual fuel injectors.
- receives fuel from the fuel supply tube.
Fuel Rail Pressure and Temperature Sensor
The fuel rail pressure and temperature sensor:
- supplies the PCM with signals indicating fuel pressure and fuel temperature.
Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM)
The FPDM:
- is electronically operated by the PCM.
- controls voltage to the Fuel Pump (FP) module.
