hmm just thinking, if the system is designed to maintain a single constant pressure - then the pressure sensor will probably have a hysteresis kind of curve - similar to a narrow band EGR - which will make an OEM sensor unappropriate.

I could still use it on the race car for the same benefits of ...

thanks for the reply.

So they do pressure feedback control more to maintain a constant pressure, and prevent any drops / increases in pressure which may deviate the mixture from what they want (when not under EGO feedback control i guess?)

I know some MOTEC fuel injection computers use fuel rail ...

Fuel rail pressure feedback controll system to replace...

Hey guys,

I was given a proposal by our formula SAE team:

To design a feedback control system where you regulate pressure in the rail by measuring the pressure using a sensor and modulating the power applied to the fuel pump.

Then you could use a map sensor (or TPS in our case) or rpm as an input ...

Thanks, although i need to look at some drawings and i am still perplexed as to how a magnetic feild in either direction can pull against a spring that can only open in one direction.

I have mucked around with some AC valves which were exactly the same, no matter which direction of current flow the ...

Stupid question - do injectors have a polarity?

If you reverse the direction of current you reverse the magnetic field which would push the needle away from the spring / port if you connected it the wrong way?

I am using toyota camry injectors with nippon denso connectors. There is a black with orange stripe and yellow.

Is it safe to assume ...
