Mechanical injection systems rely entirely on engine driven components to meter, pressurize, and time fuel delivery. In these engines, a mechanical injection pump is driven by the engine's gear train ...

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 ...

The clearances inside diesel injection system parts are closer than those found in any other technology. The plungers and needle valves in injectors need to fit tightly to ensure precise metering and ...

"Common rail." It is a term that at this point is universally known across the entire diesel space. However, for uninitiated or new enthusiasts, the term refers to the manner in which late-model/newer ...

High pressure common rail system can precisely control the injection time and injection pressure to improve the thermal efficiency of the engine. The injection characteristics of the system can affect ...

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 ...

Diesel engines rely on different types of fuel injection. Mechanical was used early on, but common rail became more popular for a few reasons.
