Induction Mr. Lombardi
Induction • The term “induction” applies to the pathway for fuel and air to enter the combustion chamber. • Including: • Carburetion • Fuel Injection • Manifolds
Carburetors • Rely on the Venturi Vacuum principle • Rated in CFM • 3 Common Styles • 1 Barrel • 2 Barrel • 4 Barrel (square bore/spread bore)
First Fuel Injection In 1910, Adams Farwell pioneered a non-carbureted fuel system called fuel injection, refined and adopted for diesel engines. But it wasn't until after World War II that thought was given to putting it on spark-ignited gasoline engines.
Fuel Injection • Fuel injection atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle under high pressure (15-90 psi). • Throttle Body Injection • Port Fuel Injection
Throttle Body Injection • 1 or 2 Injectors for engine
Port Fuel Injection • An injector per cylinder aimed at the port opening.
Direct Injection • An injector per cylinder spraying inside the cylinder.
Intake Manifold • “Wet” for Carbureted applications • “Dry” for Injected applications • Older manifolds were made from Cast Iron • Modern manifolds are made from Aluminum • Future manifolds will almost always be made of plastic (vinyl, phenolic resin, etc.)
