So we begin our content by quickly explaining how an injection system works so that you have all the information you need to understand the failure associated with it. < br>
The injection system of a volvo xc70 controls the fuel intake into the engine unit , it replaces the old carburettors. It has the benefit to be far more precise and to come, under pressure, to discharge the fuel in the engine unit. The injection pump takes care of pressurizing the fuel and transferring it to the injectors, and the injectors will relieve the fuel in the form of micro-drops into the cylinders of your volvo xc70. The benefit of fuel injection is to have a much more precise dosage than a carburettor and to allow a better air/fuel mixture and therefore a better combustion.
