 am confused about what injector duty cycle actually means.  Would an injector 
working at say 50% duty cycle be injecting the same AMOUNT of feul at say 
2000rpm as at 3000rpm.  yes except for the turn on/off variance.
 
Does the % relate to the amount of time the injector is squirting feul per 
revolution in which case (with static feul pressure) there is less time to 
inject feul at 3000rpm then 2000rpm so a 50% duty cycle at 3000rpm means that 
less feul is injected per cylinder?

The % relates to the amount of time the injector is squirting fuel per hour or 
other unit of time. It has nothing to do with RPM.

I am confused about what injector duty cycle actually means.  Would an =
injector working at say 50% duty cycle be injecting the same AMOUNT of =
feul at say 2000rpm as at 3000rpm.

Does the % relate to the amount of time the injector is squirting feul =
per revolution in which case (with static feul pressure) there is less =
time to inject feul at 3000rpm then 2000rpm so a 50% duty cycle at =
3000rpm means that less feul is injected per cylinder?

If that is true then would you need an  duty cycle of say75% to inject =
the same amount of feul at 3000 revs as 50% DC at 2000revs?

Am i on the right track or how does duty cycle work

Thank
Beetle
