 Single Port/ Throttle Body

Injection System

 Multi-port Injection System

 Central Port Injection System

 Continuous Injection System

The throttle body injection (TBI) system is earliest
& simplest type of fuel injection, single point simply
replaces the carburetor with one or two fuel injector
nozzles in the throttle body, which is the throat of
the engine’s air intake manifold.
The throttle body
injection assembly
typically consists of
the following:
throttle body
housing, fuel
injectors, fuel
pressure regulator,
throttle positioner,
throttle position
sensor, and throttle
plates.
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
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.
 The MPFI is a system or method of injecting
fuel into internal combustion engine through multi
ports situated on intake valve of each cylinder. It
delivers an exact quantity of fuel in each cylinder at
the right time.
Types of multi point fuel injection
(MPFI) systems
 There are basically three types of MPFI systems.
Sequential multi point fuel injection system
In the sequential MPFI system, injection is timed to
overlap with intake stroke of each cylinder.

 Simultaneous multi point fuel injection system

In the simultaneous MPFI system, fuel is inserted to all
cylinders at the same time.

 Batched multi point fuel injection system

In the batched MPFI system, fuel is injected to the
cylinders without bringing their intake stroke together.
ADVANTAGES

 Improve Fuel Efficiency

 Low Carbon Emissions

 Improve Engine Response

 Effective Fuel Utilization

DISADVANTAGES

o Disadvantages of multi point fuel injection (MPFI)

system

o There could be a case of misfiring sometimes

o Regular inspection of fuel injectors is required

o It is costly as compared to conventional systems
