They offer a comprehensive system for testing and servicing petrol injectors, which includes:</p> <p><strong>Injector Diagnostics:</strong> ASNU’s system allows for detailed examination of injectors’ performance. This includes checking fuel distribution, droplet formation, atomisation, and delivery.</p> <p><strong>Testing Equipment:</strong> The ASNU Classic GDI system operates injectors at a lower, safer fuel pressure (up to 10 bar) to safely examine spray patterns and identify any discrepancies.</p> <p><strong>Servicing:</strong> ASNU machines can service various types of injectors, including GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) and Piezo injectors. This servicing can address issues like poor fuel economy, misfiring, and knocking.</p> <p><i><font size="3" color="#FF0000"><u><strong>Here are some key points: </strong></u></font></i></p> <p><strong>Visual Inspection:</strong> Check for any visible damage or wear on the injectors.</p> <p><strong>Flow Testing:</strong> Measure the amount of fuel each injector delivers to ensure they are all providing the correct amount.</p> <p><strong>Spray Pattern Testing:</strong> Examine the spray pattern to ensure it is even and consistent, which is vital for proper combustion.</p> <p><strong>Electrical Testing:</strong> Check the electrical resistance of the injectors to ensure they are within the manufacturer’s specifications.</p> <p><strong>Ultrasonic Cleaning:</strong> Use ultrasonic cleaning to remove any deposits or blockages within the injectors, which can improve performance and fuel efficiency.</p> <p>An example of a successful before and after can be seen below, please note - not all injectors will be successful during testing and cleaning.</p> <p><img class="__mce_add_custom__" title="before-and-after-cleaning-copy.jpg" src="https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-tyw10w88l2/product_images/uploaded_images/before-and-after-cleaning-copy.jpg" alt="before-and-after-cleaning-copy.jpg" width="989" height="1417" /></p> <h2 class="" data-start="155" data-end="194"><i><font size="3" color="#FF0000"><u>Benefits of Regular Injector Testing:</u></font></i></h2> <p class="" data-start="196" data-end="328">Regular injector testing is a smart preventative measure that helps keep your engine running at its best.
