The demands on the modern diesel engine with
regard to performance, fuel economy, exhaust
emissions and noise levels are growing
constantly.
Good mixture preparation is a key factor for
meeting these requirements.
This calls for efficient injection systems which
produce high injection pressures to ensure that
fuel is atomised very finely. Also, it is necessary to
precisely control the commencement of fuel
injection and injection quantity.
This is how it might have looked:
The pump injection system meets these tough
requirements.
Even Rudolf Diesel thought about combining the
injection pump and injector in one unit in order to
dispense with high-pressure lines and thereby
achieve high injection pressures. However, he did
not have the technical means to put this idea into
practice.
In 1905, Rudolf Diesel came up with the idea of a
pump injector.
Diesel engines with mechanically controlled
pump injection systems have been in use in ships
and trucks since the 1950s.
For the first time, Volkswagen, in association with
Robert Bosch AG, has succeeded in developing a
diesel engine with a solenoid valve controlled
pump injection system suitable for use in
passenger cars.

A step into the future, this engine meets the tough
demands on performance and clean emissions.
At this rate, Rudolf Diesel's vision of "smokeand odour-free exhaust gases“ will one day
become reality.

It was developed on the basis of the 1.9-ltr./
81kW TDI engine with no intermediate shaft.
Only through the injection system does it differ
from the engine fitted with a distributor
injection pump.
On the following pages we will explain
everything about the design and the mode of
functioning of the pump injection system and
we will show you the necessary modifications
to the fuel system, engine management system
and engine mechanicals.

Pump injection system
General information
What is a pump injector?
A pump injector is, as the name already implies,
an injection pump combined with a control unit
and an injector.
Just like a distributor injection pump with
injectors, the pump injection system has the
following tasks:
Generating the high injection pressures
•
required
Injecting fuel in the correct quantity and at
•
the correct point in time
Each cylinder of the engine has a pump injector.
This means that there is no longer any need for a
high-pressure line or a distributor injection pump.

It is attached to the cylinder head by a clamping block.
It is important to ensure that the pump injector is
installed in the correct position.
If the pump injector is not perpendicular to the
cylinder head, the fastening bolt can come
undone. The pump injector and/or the cylinder
head may be damaged as a result. Please
observe the instructions given in the Workshop

Requirements relating to mixture formation and combustion
Good mixture formation is a vital factor to ensure
efficient combustion.
Accordingly, fuel must be injected in the correct
quantity at the right time and at high pressure. Even
minimal deviations can lead to higher levels of
pollutant emission, noisy combustion or high fuel
consumption.
Pre-injection cycle
To ensure the combustion process is as soft as
possible, a small amount of fuel is injected at a low
pressure before the start of the main injection cycle.
This injection process is known as the pre-injection
cycle. Combustion of this small quantity of fuel causes
the pressure and temperature in the combustion
chamber to rise.
A short firing delay is important for the combustion
sequence of a diesel engine. The firing delay is the
period between the start of fuel injection and the start
of pressure rise in the combustion chamber. If a large
fuel quantity is injected during this period, the
pressure will rise suddenly and cause loud
combustion noise.
This meets the requirements for quick ignition of the
main injection quantity, thus reducing the firing delay.
The pre-injection cycle and the "injection interval"
between the pre-injection cycle and the main injection
cycle produce a gradual rise in pressure within the
combustion chamber, not a sudden pressure build-up.
The effects of this are low combustion noise levels and
lower nitrogen oxide emission.
Main injection cycle
The key requirement for the main injection cycle is the
formation of a good mixture, the aim being to burn
the fuel completely if possible. The high injection
pressure finely atomises the fuel in such a way that the
fuel and air can mix well with one another. Complete
combustion reduces pollutant emission and ensures
high engine efficiency.
The injection curve of the pump injection system largely
matches the engine's demands, with low pressures
during the pre-injection cycle, followed by an "injection
interval", then a rise pressure during the main injection
cycle. The injection cycle ends abruptly.
End of injection
At the end of the injection process, it is important that
the injection pressure drops quickly and the injector
needle closes quickly. This prevents fuel at a low
injection pressure and with a large droplet diameter
from entering the combustion chamber. The fuel does
not combust completely, giving rise to higher pollutant
emissions.

The injection cycle
The high-pressure chamber is filled
Roller-type rocker arm
During the filling cycle, the pump piston moves
upwards under the force of the piston spring and
thus increases the volume of the high-pressure
chamber.
The injector solenoid valve is not activated.
The solenoid valve needle is in its resting position
and opens up the path from the fuel supply line
to the high-pressure chamber. The fuel pressure
in the supply line causes the fuel to flow into the
high-pressure chamber.

Pump injection system
The injection cycle
The pre-injection cycle commences
The injection cam pushes the pump piston down
via the roller-type rocker arm and thus displaces
fuel out of the high-pressure chamber into the
fuel supply line.
The engine control unit initiates the injection
cycle by activating the injector solenoid valve. In
the process, the solenoid valve needle is pressed
down into the valve seat and closes off the path
from the high-pressure chamber to the fuel
supply line. This initiates a pressure build-up in
the high-pressure chamber. At 180 bar, the
pressure is greater than the force of the injector
spring. The injector needle is lifted and the preinjection cycle commences.

The pre-injection cycle commences
Injector needle damping
During the pre-injection cycle, the stroke of the injector
needle is dampened by a hydraulic 'cushion'. As a result, it is
possible to meter the injection quantity exactly.
This is how it works:
In the first third of the total stroke, the injector needle is
opened undamped. The pre-injection quantity is injected into
the combustion chamber.
As soon as the damping piston plunges into the bore in the
injector housing, the fuel above the injector needle can only
be displaced into the injector spring chamber through a
leakage gap. This creates a hydraulic 'cushion' which limits
the injector needle stroke during the pre-injection cycle.

The injection cycle
End of pre-injection cycle
The pre-injection cycle ends straight after the
injector needle opens. The rising pressure causes
the retraction piston to move downwards, thus
increasing the volume of the high-pressure
chamber.
The pressure drops momentarily as a result, and
the injector needle closes.
This pre-injection cycle now ends.
The downward movement of the retraction piston
pre-loads the injector spring to a greater extent.
To re-open the injector needle during the
subsequent main injection cycle, therefore, the
fuel pressure has to be higher than during the
pre-injection cycle.

The injection cycle
The main injection cycle commences
The pressure in the high-pressure chamber rises
again shortly after the injector needle closes.
The injector solenoid valve remains closed and
the pump piston moves downwards.
At approx. 300 bar, the fuel pressure is greater
than the force exerted by the pre-loaded injector
spring. The injector needle is again lifted and the
main injection quantity is injected.
The pressure rises to 2050 bar, because more
fuel is displaced in the high-pressure chamber
than can escape through the nozzle holes.
Maximum. fuel pressure is at max. engine output,
i.e. at a high engine speed with a large quantity
of fuel being injected at the same time.

The fuel return line in the pump injector has the
following task:
Cool the pump injector. For this purpose, fuel
•
from the fuel supply line is flushed through
the pump injector ducts into the fuel return
line.
Discharge leaking fuel at the pump piston.
•
Separate vapour bubbles from the fuel

Fuel supply
The fuel system
A mechanical fuel pump sucks the fuel out of the
fuel tank through the fuel filter and pumps it
along the supply line in the cylinder head to the
pump injector units.
The fuel which is not required for injection is
returned to the fuel tank via the return line in the
cylinder head, a fuel temperature sensor and a
fuel cooler.
The fuel temperature sensor
The fuel cooler
cools the returning fuel to protect the
fuel tank against excessively hot fuel.
determines the temperature of the fuel in
the fuel return line and sends a
corresponding signal to the engine control
unit.
