The solenoids act on valves controlling the flow of fuel into (feed valve) and out of (drain valve) the cavity at the end of the rotor. The fuel injection quantity is controlled by two solenoids (fuel quantity adjusters). įuel is pressurised by the distributor plungers and delivered to the injectors at high pressure via the distributor head. Įxcess fuel is allowed to drain from the injection pump via the fuel return connection. The pump is driven at engine camshaft speed either via gears, chain or toothed belt.įuel is drawn into the injection pump by a vane-type low-pressure pump and the pump internal pressure is regulated by a pressure control valve. It is used by many vehicle manufacturers in cars and light commercial vehicles. The Lucas EPIC is a fully electronically controlled rotary fuel injection pump.
