A valve system of a vehicle fuel pump includes: a reservoir cup disposed within a fuel tank storing fuel in the reservoir cup; a fuel pump configured to pump fuel from the reservoir cup to the engine while supplying fuel to a jet pump through a first discharge port; a jet pump configured to charge the reservoir cup with fuel by drawing fuel from the fuel tank by using a pressure of fuel supplied by the fuel pump; and a jet pump control valve disposed on the first discharge port and configured to control a flow of fuel discharged from the fuel pump to the jet pump.

A method for operating a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The fuel injection system comprises a high pressure accumulator (rail) and a high-pressure fuel pump with a digital inlet valve and which guides fuel into the high pressure accumulator. The number of the control pulses for the digital inlet valve and thus the number of the pump delivery strokes is reduced with respect to the number of the injection steps of an injector of the injection system, in order to thereby reduce the noise and the energy consumption of the high-pressure pump.

An intake adaption system for internal combustion engines of vehicles employing an aftermarket intake air assembly including high capacity intake ducting and a low resistance air filter. Intake air sensors provide intake air condition signals of filtered intake air to the engine. A CPU includes a routine for modifying the intake air condition signals of the filtered intake air to the ECM. Tables alter the appropriate sensor signal or signals to correct for the calibration and predictions made by the ECM based on the original equipment. A first table translates the intake air condition signals from the intake air sensors indicative of MAF into the engine to provide actual MAF into the engine. A second table generates a pressure offset responsive to MAF into the engine to provide the ECM with a lower pressure value than actual, avoiding a diagnostic trouble code.

A liquid coolant injector for injecting a liquid coolant into a cylinder of a split cycle engine, wherein the liquid coolant has been condensed into a liquid phase via a refrigeration process, the injector comprising, a thermally insulating housing, a liquid coolant inlet, a liquid coolant outlet in fluid communication with the liquid coolant inlet via a liquid coolant flow path wherein the liquid coolant flow path extends through the thermally insulating housing, the thermally insulating housing configured to inhibit vaporisation of the liquid coolant within the liquid coolant flow path, a valve closure member, moveable between a first position in which the valve closure member blocks the liquid coolant flow path and a second position in which the liquid coolant may flow from the liquid coolant inlet to the liquid coolant outlet, and, a driver operable to move the valve closure member between the first and second position in response to a control signal.

Control of fuel flow in a uniflow-scavenged, two-stroke cycle, opposed-piston engine includes limiting an amount of torque or fuel in response to a torque demand, based upon a comparison and a selection of fuel delivery options derived from a global airflow parameter and/or a trapped airflow parameter.
