from what i understand it's mostly to have a control over the air fuel ratio.
- gonzo 4y agoThat’s what the injectors are for. It’s for emissions
- hatsunearu 4y agowhat the heck are you talking about, if you're at partial throttle, by design a normal diesel has no control over how much air is entering the engine, so your only way of modulating torque is changing the injection. This means your air fuel ratio will be uncontrolled, which is bad for emissions.
