Definition of the digijet injection system
The Digijet system is an electronic fuel injection system.
used by the Volkswagen Group. It is similar to the L-Jetronic system, with the
difference that the Digijet system uses digital calculations from the Unit of
electronic control unit (ECU) to determine the fuel supply. The
The Digijet system measures the airflow to calculate the appropriate amount of
fuel for injection into the engine. It uses several sensors, such as the sensor
of throttle position, the coolant temperature sensor and the
air flow meter, to collect information about the conditions of
functioning of the engine. Then, the ECU processes this information and determines
the timing and duration of the fuel injection to optimize the
engine performance and fuel efficiency. Compared to the
previous mechanical fuel injection systems, the Digijet system
offers greater precision and control over fuel supply, which
results in better engine performance and a reduction in emissions. It is
a predecessor of modern fuel injection systems

Before and after the digijet injection system

The Digijet injection system marked a before and after in the industry.
automotive. Before its introduction, many vehicles used carburetors
to mix the fuel with the air before combustion. However,
the Digijet system revolutionized this process by introducing electronic injection
of fuel.

Before the Digijet system, vehicles relied on carburetors, which


they work through the suction created by the entry of accelerated air through
of Venturi. This meant that the fuel atomization was not as
it could affect the efficiency and emissions of the engine.

With the introduction of the Digijet system, a significant improvement was achieved in the
efficiency and the emissions of the engines. This system used a small
high-pressure conduit to spray the fuel directly into the
combustion chamber, instead of mixing it with the air before the stroke of
admission. This allowed for more precise control of the amount of fuel
injected and a better combustion in general.

The Digijet system was developed by the Volkswagen group and was based on the
DigiFANT system previously used. It was used in many models of
Volkswagen in the 1980s, and its introduction marked a breakthrough
significant in fuel injection technology.

In summary, the Digijet injection system represented a turning point.


in the automotive industry when introducing electronic fuel injection,
which allowed for more precise control and better efficiency in the engines of
