Blacking of Engine Return Fuel

1. Since engine oil is used to lubricate the fuel injection nozzle of this engine,
return fuel may be blacked. This is not an abnormality. Please explain this fact to
your customers using this notice.

2. For blacking of fuel, see the attached material for the detail.
The fuel injection system of this engine feeds a small amount of oil from the engine
to fuel to lubricate the injector plunger so that this can prevent the plunger from
being seized and protect it from other troubles due to high increase of fuel injection
pressure and that this can improve the reliability and durability. Therefore, fuel
passed through the injector partly returns to the fuel tank, and this oil blackens fuel
in the fuel tank sometimes. This means that the engine is not out of order at all.
Please explain accordingly to your customers.

2. Structure of HPI Fuel Injection system

The injector (fuel injector) shown on the right side is incorporated in


each cylinder head and injects fuel as the internal plunger moves up
and down.
This injection system supplies a very small amount of oil from the
engine to the fuel for lubricating the injector to prevent the injector
plunger from being seized or to protect it from some trouble due to the
highly increased injection pressure. A seal is attached to the portion
<A> to control the oil amount.

Fuel passed though the injector partly returns to the fuel tank,
Plunger
and a bit amount of oil mixes in fuel in the fuel tank. This oil
blackens fuel in the fuel tank sometimes. But this is none of
abnormality.

3. Influence of Fuel Blacking on Engine

Entering oil in the fuel does not influence the engine performance at all and does
not shorten the service life of the fuel filter.
The oil consumption in the injection system is less than 0.015% of the fuel
injection.

4. Measures to be taken for customers


When some customers asked you if the engine is out of order due to the blackish drained
fuel from the fuel tank, check the color of exhaust gas from the engine and engine oil
consumption instead of the color of drained fuel to judge the engine situations and then
explain to your customers.

Fuel color changes depending on fuel level in the tank, applicable fuel and oil, and it is
difficult to judge the amount of oil mixed and existence of abnormality from fuel color.
