Electronic Fuel Injection System, abbreviated as EFI system. Gasoline injection mainly consists of three major parts: the air supply system (air path), the fuel supply system (fuel path), and the control system (circuit). The following is a detailed introduction to each component: 1. Main function of the air supply system: To provide the necessary air for the engine and control the air supply during normal engine operation. It generally consists of components such as the air filter, throttle valve, air valve, intake manifold, and intake ports. Additionally, to regulate the intake air volume at any time, the intake system is equipped with an air intake detection device. 2. Main function of the fuel supply system: The fuel injector supplies the fuel required for combustion to the cylinder, and the injector sprays fuel according to computer commands. It is generally composed of the fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter, pressure regulator, and fuel injector. 3. Main function of the control system: Based on signals from various sensors, the computer performs comprehensive analysis and processing, controlling the fuel injection volume and other parameters through execution devices to ensure optimal engine performance. The control system mainly consists of sensors, input/output circuits, and a microcomputer, with the ECU being the core of the control system.

Having driven sedans for years, I've gained some insights into the electronic fuel injection system. It mainly consists of several components: the ECU (Engine Control Unit) is the core computer that manages all operations; the fuel injector precisely sprays fuel into the engine, functioning like a precision faucet; the fuel pump draws fuel from the tank and delivers it at adequate pressure; plus sensors like the air flow sensor measuring intake volume and oxygen sensor monitoring exhaust composition, which inform the ECU to adjust fuel injection. During daily driving, I've observed the system's operation - when sensors malfunction causing inaccurate fuel injection, the car may shake or consume more fuel. Regular cleaning of injectors and oil changes can prevent clogging and extend system lifespan. It's a practical design that ensures smoother starts, reduced noise, and relatively easy maintenance.

When performing this task, common issues with the electronically controlled fuel injection system are mostly component failures. It has the ECU control unit, which acts as the brain; the fuel pump draws and pressurizes fuel from the tank; the injectors precisely spray fuel as commanded; and sensors like the throttle position sensor or temperature sensor collect data and feed it back to the ECU. During repairs, I've encountered cases of clogged injectors or fuel pump failures leading to insufficient fuel supply. I recommend using high-quality fuel to reduce impurities, checking for aging sensor wires to avoid short circuits, and ensuring the system is well-maintained. The overall design is quite intelligent, capable of real-time air-fuel ratio adjustments to reduce exhaust emissions—proper maintenance significantly improves engine efficiency and reduces faults, making driving worry-free.

I've recently become fascinated with automotive knowledge and learned about the components of an electronic fuel injection system. It has an ECU computer, which acts like the car's brain; fuel injectors are installed on the engine to directly spray fuel; the fuel pump is responsible for supplying fuel; and sensors like the oxygen sensor monitor exhaust composition. The computer adjusts the fuel injection volume and timing after receiving signals. This system is much more efficient than the old carburetor, enabling precise control of fuel consumption and providing a smoother ride. After trying to understand it, I feel more knowledgeable about maintenance—just regularly checking the fuel system's cleanliness is enough. The design is simple and reliable, making it suitable for beginners to grasp and improving daily driving performance.

How long does it take to upgrade from a C license to a B2 license?

It takes more than three years. The following are the conditions for upgrading from C1 to B2: Hold a C1 small car driver's license for more than 3 years, with no full-point record in the last three consecutive scoring cycles, aged between 20 and 50 years old, no record of causing a fatal traffic accident with equal or greater responsibility; no record of drunk driving; and the driver's license has not been revoked or canceled within the past ten years. C1 is one of the driver's license classification codes. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), C1 refers to a driver's license that allows driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, as well as light and micro special-purpose vehicles. It also permits driving vehicles classified under C2, C3, and C4. A B2 driver's license allows driving heavy and medium-duty trucks or large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles. Heavy and medium-duty trucks are mainly trucks, such as the large trucks commonly seen on the road carrying construction waste, which belong to heavy-duty trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special equipment or tools, such as sprinkler trucks, concrete mixer trucks, fire trucks, etc. Article 14 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states that for first-time applicants of a motor vehicle driver's license, the following vehicle classifications can be applied for: city buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams.

Is the Manual Civic Faster Than the Automatic?

The manual transmission Civic accelerates slightly faster than the automatic version, but the time difference is generally no more than 1.5 seconds. Here is more information about transmissions: 1. Brief Description: In an automatic transmission, the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. A manual transmission requires the driver to manually shift gears by moving the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, thereby altering the gear ratio for speed changes. 2. Advantages: Manual transmissions are more reliable and offer a greater sense of control; automatic transmissions react more slowly to speed changes and are not as responsive as manual transmissions.

Is Gear Grinding Harmful to Cars?

Gear grinding can cause certain damage to the transmission gears. Since car gears are made of metal, mutual friction will inevitably lead to some wear and tear. If gear grinding occurs frequently, it can result in the edges of the gears being worn down, reducing the engagement level during gear shifting. This may cause the gear to disengage with slight vibrations. Inside a manual transmission, there is a crucial component called the synchronizer. The role of the synchronizer is to match the speed of the gear being shifted into with the speed of the output gear during a gear shift, thereby preventing gear grinding.

Should You Shift Directly to P Gear or First to N Gear Before Turning Off the Engine?

Before shifting directly to P gear and turning off the engine, it is essential to ensure that the vehicle has completely stopped moving, is stationary in place, or that the handbrake has been firmly engaged. Otherwise, shifting to either N gear or P gear can cause damage to the transmission. When shifting gears while stationary, it is also crucial to ensure the vehicle is in a braking state to prevent any unintended movement. P gear is a common gear in automatic transmission vehicles, evolved from the N gear. In addition to placing the transmission in neutral mode, P gear also features an internal pawl mechanism that locks the output shaft gear, creating a mechanical lock to secure the drive axle, thereby immobilizing or minimizing movement of the vehicle.
