THROTTLE BODY FUEL INJECTION

TBI Fuel Injection Advantages

It is less expensive than using other types of fuel injection systems.

It is easier to clean, maintain and service because there are fewer parts.

It is cheaper to manufacture than a port injection system and simpler to diagnose. It

also does not have the same level of injector balance problems that a port injection
system might have when the injectors are clogged.

It greatly improves the fuel metering compared to a carburetor.

You do not have to make any changes to the TBI intake manifold. You also do not
have to change the throttle linkage. Instead, use the existing linkage, air cleaners and
carbs to install the system.

It is also capable of logging data and can be programmed for ignition and fuel. The
TBI system is that it learns and understands your habits when driving so it can easily
map out your actions and the performance of the engine.

TBI Fuel Injection Disadvantages

It is almost the same as a TBI carburetor wherein the fuel is not equally distributed to
all the cylinders. This means that the air/fuel mixture injected differs for each
cylinder.

It can cool the manifold much faster causing the fuel to puddle and condense in the
manifold. The possibility of condensation is much higher since the fuel travels longer
from the throttle body to the combustion chamber.

Since the system needs to be mounted on top of the combustion chamber, you're
prevented from modifying the manifold design to improve your car's performance.

It is a wet system and the mixture of fuel is still based per cylinder.

Multi-Point Fuel Injection (MPFI)

Advantage of M. P. F. I.

More uniform Air-Fuel (A/F) mixture will be supplied to each cylinder, hence the
difference in

power developed in each cylinder is minimum. Vibration from the

engine equipped with this system is less, due to this the life of engine components is
improved.

No need to crank the engine twice or thrice in case of cold starting as happens in the
carburetor system.

Immediate response, in case of sudden acceleration / deceleration.

Since the engine is controlled by ECM* (Engine Control Module), more accurate
amount of A/F mixture will be supplied and as a result complete combustion will take
place. This leads to effective utilization of fuel supplied and hence low emission
level.

The mileage of the vehicle will be improved.

Disadvantage of M. P. F. I.

Expensive to maintain in case of failure

Intake manifold control only air,it does not control the fuel
Manifold Heat Control System are required
