While carbon buildup happens on essentially all engines, gasoline, diesel, N/A, or boosted, it's an increased concern in GDI engines. Standard Electronic Fuel Injection features injectors higher in ...
Direct injection. Just about every car has it now, and those that don’t probably will in the next few years. It can add power, reduce emissions, and is a big part of why just about everybody is ...
If you flip through the list of features on just about any new car or truck, you’re likely to see the words “direct fuel injection,” or DI. The concept is straightforward enough -- engineers have ...
What is gasoline direct injection and how is it different from traditional methods of getting fuel into your car's engine? Antuan Goodwin Senior Writer, Electrified Cars Antuan started out in the ...
The other day I dropped my car off at a European specialist shop, and while I was there, a technician was working in the engine bay of a Mk7 Golf R, cleaning out carbon deposits off the intake valves.
The basic difference between direct injection (DI) and the port-fuel injection (PFI) systems we've become familiar with since the mid-1980s is that PFI sprays fuel into the intake manifold (behind ...
A few simple checks and tips can help ensure maximum peace of mind when buying a used GDI-powered car. The Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine is marketed under different names by different ...
