4.3.1 Electric injectors
Description
The electric injectors are of the miniature (Pico) type; they are powered with 12 V and feature
internal resistance of 13.8 ÷ 15.2
Ω
at 20°C.
The injectors are secured by the fuel manifold, which pushes the injectors themselves into
their respective seats obtained in the inlet manifold pipes, whereas the fluoridated rubber O-
rings (1) and (2) ensure the sealing on the intake manifold and the fuel manifold.
Fuel is fed from the upper part (3) of the electric injector, the body of which includes the
winding (4) connected to the terminals (5) of electric connector (6).
The fuel jet comes, at the absolute pressure of 3,5 bar, out of the injector and is immediately
atomized.
Operation
The injector control logic is of the “phased, sequential” type, i.e. the four injectors are
controlled according to the intake phases of every single cylinder.
