(Otomotiv) Devices that inject the proper amount of fuel into the combustion chambers in response to signals from an electronic sensing device on cars with fuel injection systems
The water is driven into the boiler by the impulse of a jet of the steam which becomes condensed as soon as it strikes the stream of cold water it impels; also called Giffard's injector, from the inventor
The component in a diesel or gasoline fuel injection system that squirts fuel into the engine In gasoline engine applications, the injector is usually electrically triggered Varnish and dirt can build up in the nozzle opening restricting the flow of fuel Injectors can be cleaned by using various fuel additives In diesel engines, the injectors are mechanical and deliver fuel under very high pressure directly into the cylinders Clogging and leaking are two common problems with diesel injectors Dirty injectors can be cleaned with fuel additives but leaky injectors must be replaced
