  2. Volkswagen D24 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_D24_engine

    The fuel system uses a Bosch mechanical distributor-type (Bosch VE type) injection pump which feeds indirect fuel injection into a remote whirl pre-combustion chamber. The cooling system is composed of a timing belt driven water pump, an 87 °C thermostat in the engine block itself.

    An all new cylinder head was needed for the Audi-developed Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI), which features cylinder-direct fuel injection straight into the combustion chambers. The result of needing to site both spark plug and fuel injector meant that the former five-valve layout had to be changed to a four-valve-per-cylinder arrangement.

  6. Dieseling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieseling

    The vast majority of vehicles manufactured after 1987 are fuel-injected: the injectors and high-pressure fuel pump immediately cease supplying fuel to the cylinders when the ignition is switched off. If the injector is damaged or dirty, a small amount of fuel can enter the chamber and be ignited, causing a sputter or two after the engine is ...

  7. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

    By submerging the pump in fuel at the bottom of the tank, the pump is cooled by the surrounding fuel; Liquid fuel by itself (i.e. without oxygen present) isn't flammable, therefore surrounding the fuel pump by fuel reduces the risk of fire; In-tank fuel pumps are often part of an assembly consisting of the fuel pump, fuel strainer and fuel ...

    Pump thrombosis is defined as a specific case of a major device malfunction. In turn, device malfunction is as defined by Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (INTERMACS) as a failure of one or more of the components of the mechanical circulatory support systems which either directly causes or could potentially induce a state of inadequate circulatory support (low ...
