FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM THEORY
There are two basic types of fuel injection systems cur-
rently being used. The first type is called "port" or "multi-
port" fuel injection. In this system, fuel injectors spray fuel
directly into intake manifold behind intake valve. These
systems typically have one fuel injector per cylinder. The
second type is commonly called Throttle Body Injection
(TBI) for GM and Chrysler vehicles or Central Fuel Injec-
tion (CFI) for Ford vehicles. These systems use one or two
fuel injectors mounted on top of intake manifold. They
spray fuel into throttle body similarly to a conventional
carburetor.
