Fuel Injection System - LUCAS/BOSCH: Description
The Lucas-Bosch Air Flow Controlled (AFC) fuel injection system is an electronically controlled system operated by incoming air flow. The AFC fuel injection system also contains a feedback system which measures oxygen content of exhaust gases and maintains the air/fuel ratio at about 14.7:1.
The system consists of an electric fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, fuel injectors, Electronic Control Unit (ECU), air flow meter, air temperature sensor, throttle switch, coolant temperature sensor, oxygen sensor, 3-way catalytic converter, and electrical relays. In addition, all models are equipped with a cold start system to aid in cold engine starts. The cold start system consists of an auxiliary air valve, cold start injector, and thermo time switch.
Air conditioned vehicles are equipped with a fuel cooler. Fuel return lines are routed through a cooler which is part of the air conditioning refrigerant system.
