Direct-injection engines were introduced with a promise that sounded ideal: more power, better fuel efficiency, and cleaner ...
Automakers have long touted the benefits of fuel injection, claiming increased efficiency and power. But as more cars have the system installed (around 73% in 2023), more and more consumers are ...
Direct injection. Just about every car has it now, and those that don’t probably will in the next few years. It can add power, reduce emissions, and is a big part of why just about everybody is ...
The basic difference between direct injection (DI) and the port-fuel injection (PFI) systems we've become familiar with since the mid-1980s is that PFI sprays fuel into the intake manifold (behind ...
Lots of new car engines these days are built with both port and direct fuel injection. On the surface, that might not make much sense. Why would a carmaker use two different types of injection methods ...
So we wake up one day and decide we want to throw a supercharger on the C7, and while we are there let’s throw a cam in it, too! The supercharger is an air pump in front of the air pump and its ...
It's an amazing time when there's new technology in the industry as it forces a new rivalry in speed parts, and direct-injection is firmly in the high-performance arena whether anyone likes it or not.
While significant sooty black deposits—and even, occasionally, visible puffs coming from the tailpipe—used to be a sign your gasoline car needed a tune-up, they’re a normal fact of life with many ...
Port fuel injection (PFI) was a major milestone in the early '80s. The integration of PFI rapidly changed the way fuel was delivered by increasing fuel economy and improving engine performance. Even ...
Direct-injection engines are pretty common in new cars these days, but how exactly do they work? Well, this explainer video put together by the YouTubers at SavageGeese gives us an in-depth look at ...
If you flip through the list of features on just about any new car or truck, you’re likely to see the words “direct fuel injection,” or DI. The concept is straightforward enough -- engineers have ...
