INJECTORS
The injectors are fitted to the cylinder head
and are electromagnetic in type. They are
controlled directly by the injection control
unit.
The injectors come with a high-pressure sup
ply port and a recirculation pipe at environ
mental pressure; The supply port is connected
to a delivery manifold (rail) with pipes de
signed to withstand the high service pressures.
The injector can be divided into two parts:
- Actuator/spray made up of a pressure rod
(1), pin (2) and nozzle (3);
- control solenoid made up of coil (4) and
pilot valve (5).
Operation
Injector operation may be divided into three
stages:
1. rest position
Coil (4) is deactivated and plunger (6) is in
closed position to prevent fuel entering the
cylinder: Fc > Fa where Fc is the force gener
ated by pressure acting on the control area (7)
of pressure rod (1) and Fa is the force due to
the pressure acting on supply volume (8).
2. Start of injection
Coil (4) is excited and causes plunger (6) to
rise. Fuel flows from control volume (9) to
the return manfold to bring about a pressure
drop in control area (7). Simultanteously, line
pressure through supply port (12) exerceses a
force Fa > Fc on supply volume (8) to cause
pin (2) to rise and thus allow fuel into the
cylinders.
3. end of injection
Coil (4) is deactivated and causes plunger (6)
to return to closed position. The resulting bal
ance of forces makes pin (2) return to rest po
sition and injection therefore ends.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The sensor is fitted to the thermostat and
measures the temperature of the engine cool
ant by means of an NTC thermistor with a
negative resistance coefficient.
Because the sensor is made using semicon
ductor technology, the resistance falls if sen
sor element temperature rises with increasing
coolant temperature.
Because resistance does not change in linear
manner, it is higher at low temperatures than
at high temperatures for the same temperature
increase.

2. Sensor case
3. Electrical connector
FUEL TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The sensor is fitted on the return manifold and
measures fuel temperature by means of an
NTC thermistor with a negative resistance co
efficient.
Refer to the previous description of the cool
ant temperature sensor for sensor operation.
FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
The sensor is fitted in the middle of the fuel
delivery manifold (rail) and is responsible for
providing a return signal (feedback) to the
control unit in order to:
- adjust injection pressure;
- regulator injection duration.

4F017XJ01
A switch (1) on the brake pedal con
trols the car brake lights; the same
switch sends a signal to pin 59 of the
injection control unit
The control unit uses the "brake pedal
depressed" signal to:
- detect a situation of over-run;;
- check the plausibility of the signal
from the accelerator potentiometer
CLUTCH PEDAL SWITCH
A switch (2) on the clutch pedal is connected to pin 61 of the injection control unit.
The injection control unit uses the "brake pedal operated" signal to distinguish gear engaged and gear
shift conditions.
PRESSURE RELIEF SENSOR
The sensor is fitted to the intake manifold and
the signal sent to the injection control unit is
used to:
- regulate injection pressure;
- regulate injection duration.
The figure alongside shows the sensor and
electrical connector with the following pin-

1. pressure signal
2. Earth
3. Fuel feed system
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE SENSOR
The atmospheric pressure signal is built into the injection control unit. It is responsible for measuring at
mospheric pressure in order to correct measured air flow and reference air flow values to control the EGR
function.

FUEL SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Operationally-speaking, the fuel supply circuit is divided into a low pressure circuit and a high pressure
circuit.
The low pressure circuit consists of a tank, multifunction valve, auxiliary fuel pump submerged in the tank
and a return manifold.
The high pressure circuit consists of a radialjet pressure pump, delivery manifold and injectors.

PRESSURE PUMP
The pressure pump is radialjet type with three
radial pistons (total capacity 0.657 cc). It is
controlled by a timing belt with or without
timing requirements.
Each pump unit consists of:
a piston (5) opered by a cam (2) integral with
the pump shaft (6);
a plate-type intake valve (3);
a delivery ball valve (4).
The pressure pump must be supplied at a
pressure of at least 0.5 bars; and for this rea
son the fuel system is equipped with an aux
iliary pump submerged in the tank.
The pressure pump is lubricated and cooled
by the diesel fuel via channels and is able to
deliver a maximum pressure of 1350 bars.
