Diesel fuel turns black due to prolonged storage. Here are some precautions for diesel storage and usage: 1. Prohibited uses: It is strictly forbidden to mix diesel with gasoline for lighting or as fuel for kerosene stoves. 2. Before use: Diesel must undergo sedimentation, filtration, and removal of impurities and moisture before use to ensure the proper functioning of the diesel engine fuel supply system. In winter, it may be necessary to preheat the diesel before use. 3. Mixing: Different grades of diesel within the same classification have basically the same quality indicators except for the freezing point and cold filter plugging point. Therefore, when resources are insufficient, they can be mixed under appropriate temperature conditions.

Here is more information about fuel injection: 1. The fuel injection volume is controlled by the computer; 2. The computer calculates based on various engine operating parameters measured by sensors, such as intake air volume, engine speed, throttle opening, water temperature, intake air temperature, etc., according to the set program, and sends electrical pulses to the injector based on the calculation results; 3. The duration of each fuel injection is controlled by changing the width of each electrical pulse, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the fuel injection volume. The wider the electrical pulse, the longer the fuel injection duration, and the greater the fuel injection volume.
