SSP 069 – Low-Pollution Engines: KE-Jetronic, KA-Jetronic, Digijet, Digifant, Diesel
INDEX
Exhaust emission levels are influenced by many factors. The most essential are:
Weight
Cross-sectional area
The shape of the vehicle
Driving resistance
Required driving performance
The mixture formation system
The combustion process
A significant factor influencing the level of exhaust emissions lies in the type of mixture formation system. Injection systems such as K-Jetronic or Digijet and other newly developed systems have a fundamental advantage over carburetors due to more precise metering under different operating conditions and varying flow velocities.
