A fuel injector injects atomized fuel into the cylinder in the proper quantity. It is the main component of a fuel injection system and is a spray delivery device. There are mechanical and electronic fuel injectors. Mechanical injectors use a single piston to pump, mix, and inject fuel while electronic injectors are controlled by an ECU through electromagnetic coils. Fuel injectors have components like a nozzle, needle valve, spring, and body to atomize and distribute fuel uniformly in the cylinder.
