DFI Operation

Air Induction Through Crankcase

Once inside the enclosure the air enters the plenum through the throttle shutter which is located in the plenum assembly . The air then continues through the reed valves and into the crankcase. The throttle shutter is actuated by the throttle shaft. Mounted on a separate shaft is a throttle position sensor (TPS). This sensor tells the engine control unit (ECM) the position of the throttle.
If the TPS should fail, the warning horn will sound. Engine speed will be reduced.

Air Compressor System

Air from inside the engine enclosure is drawn into the compressor through the air attenua­tor. This attenuator acts like a muffler to quiet compressor noise and contains a filter to prevent the ingestion of debris into the compressor. The compressor is driven by a belt from a pulley mounted on the flywheel and is automatically self adjusted using a single idler pulley . This air compressor is a single cylinder unit containing a connecting rod, pis­ton, rings, bearings, reed valves, and a crankshaft. The compressor is water cooled to lower the temperature of the air charge and is lubricated by oil from the engine oil pump assembly. As the compressor piston moves downward inside the cylinder, air is pulled through the filter, reed valves and into the cylinder. After the compressor piston changes direction, the intake reeds close and the exhaust reeds open allowing compressed air into the hose leading to the air/fuel rails.

Fuel

The air/fuel rails contain two passages; one for fuel, the second is the air passage. The air passage is common between all the cylinders included in the rail. A hose connects the starboard rail air passage to the air compressor . Another hose connects the starboard air rail passage to the port air rail passage. An air pressure regulator will limit the amount of pressure developed inside the air passages to approximately 10 psi below the pressure of the fuel inside the fuel passages (i.e. 80 psi air vs 90 psi fuel). Air exiting the pressure regulator is discharged through the adaptor plate.
Fuel for the engine is stored in a typical fuel tank. A fuel lift pump draws fuel through the fuel line and fuel filter, then pushes the fuel through a water separating fuel filter. This filter removes any contaminates and water before the fuel reaches the vapor separator. Fuel vapors are vented through a hose to the fuel tank. The electric fuel pump in the VST is different than the fuel pump that is utilized on the standard EFI engine (non DFI), and is capable of developing fuel pressures in excess of 90 psi. Fuel inside the rail must remain pressurized at exactly 10 psi over the air rail pressure or the ECM (map) calibrations will be incorrect. Fuel from the vapor separator is supplied to the top of the port fuel rail. A fuel line connects the bottom of the first rail to the opposite fuel rail. Fuel is stored inside the rail until an injector opens. A fuel pressure regulator controls pressure in the fuel rails, and allows excess fuel to return into the vapor separator . The fuel regulator not only regulates fuel pressure but also regulates it at approximately 10 p.s.i. higher than whatever the air rail pressure is. The fuel regulator diaphragm is held closed with a spring that requires 10 p.s.i. to force the diaphragm off the diaphragm seat. The back side of the diaphragm is exposed to air rail pressure. As the air rail pressure increases, the fuel pressure needed to open the regulator will equally increase. Example: If there is 50 p.s.i. of air pressure on the air rail side of the diaphragm, 60 p.s.i. of fuel pressure will be required to open the regulator. The port fuel rail is water cooled.

Oil

Electrical

DIRECT FUEL INJECTION
To equalize the pulses developed by the pumps (both air and fuel) a tracker diaphragm is installed in the starboard rail. The tracker diaphragm is positioned between the fuel and air passages. The tracker diaphragm is a rubber diaphragm which expands and retracts depending upon which side of the diaphragm senses the pressure increase (pulse).
Oil in this engine is not mixed with the fuel before entering the combustion chamber. Oil is stored inside a standard remote oil reservoir. Crankcase pressure will force oil from the remote oil tank into the oil reservoir on the side of the powerhead. Oil will flow from the oil reservoir into the oil pump. The oil pump is a solenoid design. It is activated by the ECM and includes 7 pistons with corresponding discharge ports. The oil pump is mounted di­rectly onto the powerhead. Each cylinder is lubricated by one of the discharge ports. The oil is discharged into the crankcase. Bleed hoses carry excess oil from the crankcase to the transfer ports. The seventh passage connects to the hose that leads to the air com­pressor for lubrication. Excess oil from the compressor provides lubrication for the upper and lower crank bearing.
The ECM will change the discharge rate of the oil pump, depending upon engine demand. The ECM will also pulse the pump on initial start up to fill the oil passages eliminating the need to bleed the oil system. The ECM provides additional oil for break in, as determined by its internal clock. The oil ratio varies with engine rpm and load.

Operation

The electrical system consists of the ECM, crank position sensor (flywheel speed & crank­shaft position), throttle position sensor (TPS), MAP sensor, engine temperature sensor, ignition coils and injectors (fuel & direct). The engine requires a battery to start (i.e. the ignition and injection will not occur if the battery is dead). The system will run off of the alternator.
The operation of the system happens in milliseconds (ms); exact timing is critical for en­gine performance. As the crankshaft rotates, air is drawn into the crankcase through the throttle shutter, into the plenum and through the reed valves. As the piston nears bottom­dead-center, air from the crankcase is forced through the transfer system into the cylinder. As the crankshaft continues to rotate the exhaust and intake ports close. With these ports closed, fuel can be injected into the cylinder. The ECM will receive a signal from the throttle position sensor (TPS), engine temperature sensor (TS) and the crank position sensor (flywheel speed and position sensor). With this information the ECM refers to the fuel calibration (maps) to determine when to activate (open and close) the injectors and fire the ignition coils. With the piston in the correct position, the ECM opens the fuel injec­tor, 90 psi fuel is discharged into a machined cavity inside the air chamber of the air/fuel rail. This mixes the fuel with the air charge. Next the direct injector will open, discharging the air/fuel mixture into the combustion chamber. The direct injector directs the mixture at the bowl located in top of the piston. The piston’s bowl directs the air/fuel mixture into the center of the combustion chamber. This air fuel mixture is then ignited by the spark plug.
90-888438 JUNE 2002
Compressor Notes: To aid in starting when the air rail pressure is low and before the compressor has time to build pressure, some direct injectors are held open by the ECM. This allows the compression from inside the cylinders to pressurize the air rail faster (1
°
or 2 strokes, or 60
of crankshaft rotation).

Testing Electric Fuel Pump Pressure Output

Low Pressure Electric Fuel Pump

IMPORT ANT: Af t e r completing fuel pressure tests, reconnect and secure fuel outlet hose to fuel pump with full circle stainless clamps in Clamp Tool Kit 91-803146A1.
1. Remove outlet fuel hose from low pressure pump. Install a short piece of hose (obtain locally) onto pump outlet fitting. Install Schrader Valve t-fitting (22-849606) between outlet fuel hose (removed from pump) and new fuel hose (installed on pump). Secure hose connections with sta-straps. Due to the low pressure output of this pump, it is recommended that the air gauge of the Dual Fuel/Air Pressure Gauge (91-852087A1/A2/A3) be connected to the Schrader Valve. Gauge should indicate 6-9 psi (41.37 - 62.04 kPa).

Fuel Pressure Regulator

The fuel regulator is located on the port fuel rail.
57980
The fuel pump is capable of delivering more fuel than the engine can consume. Excess fuel flows through the fuel pressure regulator, interconnecting passages/hoses, fuel cool­er, and back to the vapor separator tank. This constant flow of fuel means that the fuel system is always supplied with cool fuel, thereby preventing the formation of fuel vapor bubbles and minimizing the chances of vapor lock.
The fuel pressure regulator is calibrated to raise the fuel pressure to 10 psi above the air pressure.
The fuel regulator is mounted on the port fuel rail, near the bottom. This regulator relies on both air and spring pressure to control the fuel pressure. Inside the regulator assembly is a 1 0 lb. spring, this spring holds the diaphragm against the diaphragm seat. The contact between the diaphragm and diaphragm seat closes the passage between the incoming fuel (from the electric fuel pump) and the fuel return passage.
When the engine is not running (no air pressure on the spring side of the diaphragm) the fuel pressure required to move the diaphragm is 10 psi.
When the engine is running, air pressure from the air compressor (80 psi) is routed through the air passages, to the spring side of the fuel pressure regulator diaphragm.
The air pressure (80 psi) and spring pressure (10 psi) combine to regulate system fuel pressure to 90 psi - or 10 psi higher than the air pressure in the DFI system fuel/air rails.

Air Pressure Regulator

The air pressure regulator is located on the port fuel rail.
The air pressure regulator is designed to limit the air pressure inside the rails to approxi­mately 80 psi.
DIRECT FUEL INJECTION
57980
The air regulator uses a spring (pressure) to control the air pressure. This spring (80 psi) holds the diaphragm against the diaphragm seat. The contact area blocks (closes) the air inlet passage from the excess air, return passage. As the air pressure rises (below the diaphragm), it must reach a pressure equal to or greater than the spring pressure holding the diaphragm closed. Once this pressure is achieved, the spring compresses, allowing the diaphragm to move. The diaphragm moves away from the diaphragm seat, allowing air to exit through the diaphragm seat, into the excess air passage leading to the air ple­num.

Air Regulator Troubleshooting

Air pressure should be measured at the air schrader valve located near the middle of the port fuel rail assembly.
Is air pressure within 78 to 82 psi range at neutral idle psoition?
No
Less than 78 psi? Greater than 82 psi?
Remove air regulator and clamp.
Inspect air regulator o-ring.
Air regulator o-ring OK and
air pressure is less than 78 psi?
Remove air bypass hose from
exhaust adaptor and measure
air pressure at neutral idle condition.
Air pressure normal – 78 to 82 psi?
Yes
Air regulator is OK
Air pressure greater
than 82 psi?
Air exiting air bypass?
Yes?
Failed air regulator.
90-888438 JUNE 2002
No?
Plugged bypass circuit in adaptor plate.

Tracker Valve

The tracker valve is located on the starboard fuel/air rail assembly.
57979
The DFI system must maintain a constant 10 psi pressure difference between the fuel pressure and air pressure in the rails, at all times. The tracker is designed to maintain the 10 psi differential when the air or fuel pressure suddenly raises (i.e. pulses generated by the compressor’s piston or by the fuel injectors opening and closing). The tracker contains a spring on the air side of the diaphragm. This spring positions the diaphragm against the diaphragm’s seat (when the engine is not running).
After the engine starts, and the fuel and air pressure reach normal operating range, the fuel pressure will compress the spring and the diaphragm will move slightly away from the seat (to a neutral position). At this point the pressure on both sides of the tracker dia­phragm is equal (10 psi spring pressure + 80 psi air pressure = 90 psi fuel pressure).
Any air or fuel pressure “spikes” on one side of the diaphragm will transfer this pressure rise to the other system (air or fuel) on the other side of the diaphragm. Both systems will have a momentary increase in pressure so that the 10 psi difference between air and fuel system pressures can be maintained.
NOTE: To prevent excessive wear in the seat, the tracker is calibrated to allow the dia­phragm to be slightly away from the seat during normal operation.

Air Compressor Disassembly/Reassembly

IMPORTANT: If an internal failure of the air compressor has occurred, i.e. broken reed, scuffed piston, bearing failure, etc. – all air hoses, fuel rails and injectors should be disassembled and inspected for metal debris. Failure to remove all metal debris will result in poor performance and/or powerhead failure.
NOTE: If cylinder bore is scored, air compressor must be replaced as an assembly. NOTE: The piston and rings are not sold separately . They must be replaced as an assem-
bly. The connecting rod and bearings are not sold separately. They must be replaced as an assembly.

FUEL PRESSURE AND AIR PRESSURE TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
Fuel Pressure and Air Pressure are Both Low 1. Inspect air compressor air intake (air filter in fly-
wheel cover) for blockage.
2. Remove air compressor cylinder head and in­spect for scuffing of cylinder wall. Inspect for bro­ken reeds and/or reed stops.
3. Tracker Valve – Remove and inspect diaphragm for cuts or tears and seat damage on diaphragm and rail.
4. Air Regulator – Remove and inspect diaphragm for cuts or tears on diaphragm and rail.
Fuel Pressure Low or Fuel Pressure Drops while Running (Air Pressure Remains Normal)
1. Each time key is turned to the RUN position, both electric pumps should operate for 2 seconds. If it they do not run, check 20 ampere fuse and wire connections. Check 5 AMP. fuse if electric fuel lift pump does not run.
2. If pumps run but have no fuel output, check va­por separator (remove drain plug) for fuel.
3. If no fuel present in vapor separator, check fuel/ water separator for debris.
4. Check high pressure pump amperage draw. Normal draw is 6 - 9 amperes; if draw is below 2 amperes, check fuel pump filter (base of pump) for debris. If filter is clean, replace pump. If am­perage is above 9 amperes, pump is defective – replace pump. Check low pressure output – 6-9 psi. Check low pressure electric fuel pump amper­age draw. Normal draw is 1 - 2 amperes; if draw is below 1 ampere, check for blockage between pump inlet fitting and vapor separator tank. If am­pere draw is above 2 amperes, replace pump.
5. Check electric lift pump.
6. Fuel Regulator – Remove and inspect dia­phragm for cuts or tears.
Fuel Pressure High and Air Pressure is Normal 1. Debris blocking fuel regulator hole.
2. Faulty pressure gauge
Fuel and Air Pressure Higher than Normal 1. Debris blocking air regulator passage.
2. Air dump hose (rail to air plenum) blocked/ plugged.
