Re: Fuel Injection


I considered such a project one time, there was an article in an past
issue of CIrcuit Cellar about a fellow that had made an injection
system for a college project vehicle, going for extreme fuel
efficiency.  Interesitng article.  Anyway, the basic engineering is in
there.  The Bosch book on fuel injection, the exact title escapes me
right now, has a lot of things in it about the solenoid valves and
injectors and injection generally.  The way I was going to proceed is
find out what the flow rates of the injectors were for various RPMs
also checking the pusle widths to the injectors.  There's a finite
period for opening and closing, on the order of 1-2 milliseconds as I
remember, that you'd have to take into account when designing the
controller.  I'd like to get a closed loop system, one including an
oxygen sensor(no high-test leaded anymore) and maybe some iginition
control.  Would be quite a project.  One of the Southern CA bug parts
places has such a beast, think it runs in the low kilobuck range.
Kind of a toss up whether it would be worth it designing it or just go
buy one..  Good luck if you go that route.  If I had some more
experience(and unlimited time and funds) with other types of Bosch
units I'd try adapting one of the later units, maybe a K or KE
Jetronic.
