DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

DESCRIPTION

Hot Wire Multiport Fuel Injection

The ’Hot Wire’ Multiport fuel injection system derives
its name from the mass air flow sensor which uses
one cold wire and one electrically heated wire to
measure the volume of air entering the engine.

The function of the system is to supply the exact
amount of fuel directly into the intake manifold
according to the prevailing engine operating
conditions.

To monitor these conditions, various sensors are fitted
to the engine to measure engine parameters. Data
from the sensors is received by the Engine control
module (ECM), the ECM will then determine the exact
amount of fuel required at any condition.

The ECM having received data from the sensors
produces pulses, the length of which will determine
the simultaneous open time of each bank of injectors
in turn, which will govern the amount of fuel injected.

Engine control module - ECM

The Multiport fuel injection system is controlled by the
14 CUX Engine Control Module comprising of a
microprocessor with integrated circuits and
components mounted on printed circuit boards. The
ECM is connected to the main harness by a 40 pin
plug.

Injectors

The eight fuel injectors are fitted between the
pressurized fuel rail and inlet manifold. Each injector
comprises a solenoid operated needle valve with a
movable plunger rigidly attached to the nozzle valve.
When the solenoid is energized the plunger is
attracted off its seat and allows pressurized fuel into
the intake manifold.

Engine coolant temperature sensor

The engine coolant temperature sensor is located in
the front of the thermostat housing. The sensor
provides engine coolant information to the ECM. The
ECM increases the injector opening time when cold to
provide improved driveability, and reduces the
opening time as the engine reaches normal operating
temperature.

Engine fuel temperature sensor

The engine fuel temperature sensor is located in the
rail on the RH side of the ram housing. The sensor
sends fuel temperature data to the ECM, the ECM on
receiving the data will adjust the injector open time
accordingly to produce good hot starting in high
ambient temperatures.

Idle air control valve

The idle air control valve is screwed into a housing
attached to the rear of the plenum chamber, between
the plenum chamber and bulkhead. The idle air
control valve has two windings which enable the
motor to be energised in both directions thus opening
or closing the air valve as required by the ECM.
The idle air control valve will open and allow extra air
into the plenum chamber to maintain engine idle
speed when the engine is under increased (Electrical
and Mechanical) loads.
The idle air control valve will control engine idle speed
when the vehicle is stationary.

Heated oxygen sensors (0

2

sensors) - Catalyst

vehicles

The two heated oxygen sensors are located forward
of the catalysts mounted in the exhaust downpipes.
The sensors monitor the oxygen content of the
exhaust gases and provide feedback information of
the air/fuel ratio to the ECM. Each sensor is heated by
an electrical element to improve its response time
when the ignition is switched on.
