DISTRIBUTION.
The fuel injection system is a multi-nozzle, continuous flow, altitude compensating system that regulates
fuel flow to match engine operating conditions. The system consists of an engine driven fuel pump, a throttle
body, a fuel manifold valve and fuel discharge nozzles.
The engine driven fuel pump is a positive displacement, rotary vane type pump with an integral vapor
separator and altitude compensating aneroid valve.
The throttle body consists of a rotary valve metering unit attached to an air throttle that controls the flow of
air to the engine. The position of the cam shaped edge of the rotary valve across the fuel delivery port and
engine driven pump controls the fuel flow to the manifold valve and nozzles, thus controlling the fuel-air ratio.
The fuel manifold valve is the central point for dividing fuel to the individual cylinders. A diaphragm and
plunger valve within the manifold valve raises or lowers by fuel pressure to open or close the individual fuel
supply ports simultaneously.
The fuel discharge nozzles are an air bleed type nozzle with a calibrated orifice. A nozzle is installed in the
cylinder head outside each intake valve for each cylinder.
FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM MAINTENANCE.
1. Check all attaching parts for tightness.
2. Check all fuel lines for leaks, evidence of damage, or chafing by metal to metal contact.
3. Check control connections, levers, and linkages for safety.
4. Inspect nozzles for cleanliness with particular attention to air screens and orifices. Use a standard 1/2
inch spark plug type deep socket to remove nozzles. Do not remove shield to clean air screens. Do not use wire
or other objects to clean orifices. To clean nozzles, remove from engine and immerse in fresh cleaning solvent.
Use compressed air to dry.
5. Unscrew strainer plug from fuel injection control valve and clean screen in solvent. Reinstall, safety,
and check for leaks.
6. During periodic lubrication, add a drop of engine grade oil on each end of the air throttle shaft and at
each end of the linkage between the air throttle and fuel metering valve.
—NOTE—
Do not use any form of thread compound on fuel line fittings.
Use only a fuel soluble lubricant such as engine oil.
FUEL INJECTOR NOZZLE ASSEMBLY.
REMOVAL OF FUEL INJECTOR NOZZLES.
1. Remove the cowling side access panels.
2. Disconnect the fuel line and remove the ram air line from the nozzle.
3. Use a standard 1/2 inch spark plug type deep socket to remove the nozzle.
