The injection pressure of a hydraulic fuel injection nozzle can be increased by __________.

Question 1 of 27070

The injection pressure of a hydraulic fuel injection nozzle can be increased by __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Hydraulic fuel injector operation – how pressure is built up and what opens the nozzle • Nozzle spring and shims – how they set the opening pressure of the injector • Difference between supply (booster) pump pressure and injector opening pressure

💭 Think About

• Which component actually determines at what pressure the nozzle needle lifts off its seat? • If you change the orifice (hole) size at the nozzle tip, does that raise the pressure needed to open it, or mainly change flow once it is open? • What happens to spring force on the nozzle needle when you add shims versus remove them?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which part directly controls spring tension against the needle valve • Distinguish between fuel system supply pressure (low pressure) and nozzle opening pressure (high pressure) • Think about whether each option would make it harder or easier for the needle to lift, and which direction that changes opening pressure
