The fuel delivery system supplies fuel to the engine. It also has the functions
to remove trash or dust and to regulate the volume of fuel supply.

Electronic Fuel Injection
Fuel that is injected from the fuel injector mixes with air, and the mixture is sent to
the cylinder. To achieve an optimal air-fuel mixture ratio, the ECU (Electronic
Control Unit) regulates the injection timing and injection volume. The injection
volume is regulated by the duration of injection.
Getting signals from the ECU the coil pulls on the
plunger and opens the valve to inject the fuel.

where it mixes with air.

Fuel Filter and pressure regulator
Fuel filter is preventing contamination in the fuel before being pumped into the
injectors. The filter is used to remove the contamination and therefore it should be
replaced at regular intervals.

The dust is then sent to the dust trap, and element made of metallic wool,
the air is sent to another air cleaner. which is soaked with oil stored in the
bottom of the air cleaner case.

ETCS-i (Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent)
The ETCS-i, which converts the accelerator pedal operation into electric
signals, uses an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) to control the opening and
closing of the throttle valve by actuating a motor in accordance with the driving
conditions. Therefore, there is no throttle cable to link the accelerator pedal
with the throttle valve.

Intake manifold
An intake manifold consists of several
pipes that supply air to each cylinders.
ACIS (Acoustic Control Induction
System) uses an ECU to actuate a control
valve that changes the effective length of
the intake manifold. By changing the
length of the intake manifold, this system
improves the intake efficiency of all
engine speed ranges.

Turbo-charging and Supercharging
A turbo charger is the device to compress the intake air by the energy of exhaust
gas and transmits the high-density mixture into the combustion chamber to
increase the generating power. When the turbine wheel turns with the energy of
the exhaust gas, the compressor wheel the connected with the shaft on the
opposite side, transmits the compressed intake air to the engine.
