In present carburetors, gasoline is mixed with air, then sucked into the cylinders through the manifold. With a fuel-injection system, small pumps attached to each cylinder spray the fuel-air mixture under pressure directly into the firing chamber. With better engine breathing and more accurate fuel control, the system gives faster acceleration, particularly at low speeds, more effective horsepower and more gas mileage...
