Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The sequential multiport fuel injection (SFI) system is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM). Ignition voltage is supplied to the fuel injectors. The PCM controls each fuel injector by grounding the control circuit via a solid state device called a driver. When energized the fuel injector solenoid operates the solenoid plunger, allowing pressurized fuel to be injected into the intake port of the cylinder. The fuel pump will pressurize the fuel rail and the fuel injectors as long as the engine is cranking and the PCM is receiving the ignition system reference pulses.
