Bi-Fuel Gasoline Engines
New Eagle has verified a Bi-Fuel system design which utilizes a proven off-the-shelf embedded controller and custom electronics for use in the aftermarket. The system design involves rerouting the OEM injector signals through the New Eagle system so that they can be disabled in order to allow operation on the secondary fuel. A secondary fuel system is installed with an additional set of fuel injectors which the New Eagle controller will drive.
The introduction of an aftermarket component into an OEM control loop such as fueling will inevitably introduce gain and lag. The New Eagle system is designed to minimize the gain and lag introduced to the system by allowing on-cycle fueling adjustments and calibration of start of injection of the secondary fuel. The system can be calibrated to operate on one fuel or the other at different engine conditions.
