DICTIONARY OF AUTOMOTIVE TERMS - "Lj"
- L-Jetronic
- Term by Bosch to describe fuel injection system controlled by the
air flowing through a sensor with a movable vane, or flap, which
indicates engine load. The L is for luft air. Later
versions of L-jet are equipped with a Lambda (oxygen) sensor for
better mixture control. Bosch originally used the term Air-Flow
Controlled (AFC) Injection to denote L-Jet system in order to
differentiate them from pressure controlled D-Jetronic system
- L-Jetronic air flow meter
- Airflow meter used on the L-Jetronic system
- L-Jetronic fuel injection system
- An electronically controlled fuel injection system. Fuel is supplied by an intermittent-action L-Jetronic fuel injection system, which uses engine speed and intake airflow as its main control parameters. Each cylinder has its own solenoid injector, which is opened by control pulses delivered by the electronic control unit; the length of these pulses depends on the control parameters. All of these parameters are detected by sensors and processed in the control unit. This fuel injection system is employed by BMW in the K 75 model
