The high pressure pump (also called “injection pump”) is a mechanical part of the injection system, which has the task of receiving the fuel from the fuel supply circuit and place it under pressure before entering the injectors rail.
Why an injection pump pressurizes the fuel? Because gasoline or diesel cannot just arrive into the combustion chamber simply by gravity, much less to drip. In fact, an injector is designed to “nebulize” and not to sprinkle the fuel; this is because nebulization allows a much more precise and comprehensive spreading of fuel, but this assumes that the fuel was put into pressure. In fact, the highest the pressure the easiest it will be to get precise and sequential injections (not to mention the pre-injections and post-injections). Read more »
That pump technology was abandoned by the manufacturers, but the mechanical pumps are not abandoned by the owners of the cars which are using them to ‘feed’ their carburetors. Read more »
