Abstract
This lecture/lab course will introduce students to the diesel fuel injection system. Topics covered will include fuel characteristics and testing, fuel sub-system and components, mechanical diesel fuel systems (inline pumps, rotary distributor pumps, mechanical unit injectors) and electronically controlled diesel fuel systems (EUI, HEUI, High Pressure Common Rail). Lab exercises will relate to lecture material, and will include fuel subsystem components, disassembly/reassembly of fuel pumps, fuel testing, injector testing, removal/installation of fuel pumps and injectors. Safety, correct industry procedures, correct tool usage, and diagnosis of common fuel-related problems will be emphasized.
