GASOLINE INJECTION SYSTEM
A gasoline injection system sprays fuel into the engine’s intake manifold. The spray is driven by pressure from an electric fuel pump. A carburetor--the older alternative--uses engine vacuum instead. The advantages of a gasoline injection system over a carburetor system are many:
Improved fuel economy: The gasoline injection system results in superior fuel economy over a carburetor system
Improved mixture/atomization: The pressure created during the gasoline injection process results in a finer mist.
Improve engine efficiency/power: Fuel is delivered in precise quantities to each cylinder, and airflow is increased with a gasoline injection system. This enhances engine power/efficiency.
Improved maintenance: Gasoline injection systems rely on fewer parts than carburetor systems. Therefore, there are fewer components that can wear out or break.
