This is how it works<br />

The fuel flows from the low pressure fuel system into the high-pressure fuel pump where it flows through<br />

the hollow pump piston to the intake valve.<br />

Suction lift<br />

The downward motion of the pump piston produces an<br />

increase in volume inside the pump cylinder, causing<br />

the pressure to drop. As soon as the pressure in the<br />

hollow pump piston is greater than the pressure in the<br />

pump cylinder, the intake valve opens and<br />

additional fuel flows into the cylinder.<br />

Delivery head<br />

At the start of the upward movement of the pump piston,<br />

the pressure in the pump cylinder rises and the<br />

intake valve closes. If the pressure in the pump cylinder<br />

is greater than the pressure in the fuel rail, the exhaust<br />

valve opens and fuel is pumped to the<br />

fuel rail.<br />
