Injector/Prechamber Question
I am curious to know exactly what happens when an injector "pops" until ignition.
I have looked for diagrams, etc but I can't get what I am looking for.
My understanding is that a fine mist leaves the injector and enters the "prechamber."
What is the purpose of the prechamber?
It's my understanding that the prechamber only has a few holes through which the diesel enters into the cylinder.
How does that allow the diesel to stay "atomized?"
How much improvement can a new injector/nozzle give you?
I ask this because I will be installing my new Monark injectors tomorrow.
It's all a bit fuzzy to me now exactly how this works(not the installation, the actual functioning of the parts).
