All the electric injector cars fire all the injectors at once...batch fire The early CIS cars which is Continuous Injection System the injectors spray ALL THE TIME just varing amounts.
Isn't it twice per revolution to a certain rpm level, then once per with an extended duty cycle?
I think it is once per revolution of the crank or twice per complete combustion cycle. Above a certain point (5300rpm at WOT?) it changes to once per combustion cycle.
Isn't it funny that we're all speculating instead of just picking up a WSM or using the Rennlist search function?

Jim, this is nearly correct. The CIS system has fuel pressure to the injectors all the time. The pressure determines the volume of fuel that is drawn in during the intake valve openning and piston withdrawal. The piston moving down creates an area of 'negative pressure' for lack of a better term, overcoming the spring in the check valve of the CIS style injectors, and drawing fuel into the intake. That's why the CIS style injectors have to be close to the intake valve, there is no CIS throttle body injection, just multiport.
The CIS injectors are shut off during intake valve closed time. It is a remarkably efficient mechanical system, all based on pressure from the metering plate to the fuel pressure regulator.
I think it is once per revolution of the crank or twice per complete combustion cycle. Above a certain point (5300rpm at WOT?) it changes to once per combustion cycle.

I haven't seen it in the WSM. I tried searching Rennlist. I know it was in a discussion of the Sharktuner by Louie, but I've struck out so far.
