              Exhaust gas recirculation is used to reduce NO   emissions from petrol engines;

            this is also true for diesel engines ( Fig. 2.288   ). In addition, a small quantity of hot
            exhaust gas in the air charge of a cold engine helps to reduce the delay period
            and the incidence of cold engine diesel knock.
              Many diesel-engined vehicles are now fi tted with oxidation catalytic converters
            that work in conjunction with other emission components to reduce hydrocarbon
            and particulate emissions.
              The fuel systems for traditional direct and indirect injection are similar and vary                 Safety fi rst

            these can rise up to 1000 bar at the pump outlet for turbocharged direct injection
            engines.
