DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


FUEL CHARGING AND CONTROLS

Sequential Multi-Port Fuel Injection (SFI)

The fuel charging and controls system consists of the:

 Throttle Body (TB).


 fuel injectors.
 fuel rail.

The fuel charging and controls system is:

 a Sequential Multi-Port Fuel Injection (SFI) system.


 pulse-width modulated.
 Mass Air Flow (MAF) controlled.

Fuel is metered into each intake port in a sequential firing order. Fuel injectors pulse to follow engine firing
order, in accordance with engine demand, on a tuned intake manifold.

The basic fuel requirement of the engine is determined from the data supplied to the PCM by the MAF sensor,
which measures the amount of air being drawn into the engine.

2008 ENGINE PERFORMANCE Fuel Charging & Controls - 3.5L - Edge & MKX

The various sensors detect any changes in the operating conditions and send signals to the PCM. This permits
the PCM to control the opening duration (pulse width) of the fuel injectors and maintain optimum exhaust
emission control and engine performance for all operating conditions.

Throttle Body (TB)

The TB:

 controls air supply to the intake manifold by electronically positioning the throttle plate.
 is not adjustable.

Fuel Injectors

The fuel injectors:

 are electronically operated by the PCM.


 atomize the fuel as the fuel is delivered.
 each have an internal solenoid that opens a needle valve, which injects fuel into the intake port in the
cylinder head.
 are deposit resistant.

Fuel Rail

The fuel rail:

 receives fuel from the fuel supply tube.


 delivers fuel to the fuel injectors.

REMOVAL

WARNING: Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or have an open flame of any type
when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable
mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Before working on or disconnecting any of the fuel tubes or fuel system
components, relieve the fuel system pressure to prevent accidental
spraying of fuel. Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure,
even when the engine is not running. Failure to follow this instruction
may result in serious personal injury.

1. Disconnect the battery ground cable. For additional information refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND
CABLES article.
2. Release the fuel system pressure. For additional information, refer to FUEL SYSTEM - GENERAL
INFORMATION article.
3. Remove the upper intake manifold. For additional information, refer to ENGINE - 3.5L article.
4. Disconnect the fuel tube-to-fuel rail quick connect coupling. For additional information, refer to FUEL
SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION article.
5. Disconnect the 6 fuel injector electrical connectors.
6. Remove the 4 fuel rail bolts.
7. Remove the fuel rail and injectors as an assembly.
8. Remove the 6 fuel injector clips and the 6 fuel injectors.

 Remove and discard the 12 fuel injector O-ring seals.

INSTALLATION

CAUTION: Use O-ring seals that are made of special fuel-resistant material. The
use of ordinary O-rings seals can cause the fuel system to leak. Do
not reuse the O-ring seals.

NOTE: Install new fuel injector O-ring seals and lubricate them with clean engine
oil.

1. Install the 6 fuel injectors and the 6 fuel injector clips into the fuel rail.
2. Install the fuel rail and fuel injectors as an assembly.
3. Install the 4 fuel rail bolts.
 Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

4. Connect the 6 fuel injector electrical connectors.


5. Connect the fuel tube-to-fuel rail quick connect coupling. For additional information, refer to FUEL
SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION article.
6. Install the upper intake manifold. For additional information, refer to ENGINE - 3.5L article.
