Having fuel injectors on all mass-produced vehicles is one of the biggest automotive breakthroughs of the past few decades. If you've ever gone through having to start an engine with a poorly tuned ...

Your fuel pump pushes fuel from your gas tank through your fuel lines to your engine. Then, your fuel injectors are responsible for spraying just the right amount of gas into your combustion chambers ...
