The present invention provides a method of producing a fuel distribution pipe 10 to be attached to a cylinder head. The method includes providing a forged bar made of metal, forming a main bore 14 in the forged bar so as to extend along an axial direction ...

Several methods of forming angled orifices in a metal sheet are described in which an angled orifice can be formed from a preformed right-angled orifice. Each angled orifice has an oblique axis relative to at least one of a first surface and a second surfa...

A fuel injector (100) having an orifice plate (10) proximate the outlet. The orifice plate has first and second plate surfaces (10a,10b;302a,302b) spaced at a predetermined distance from one another and an orifice (12;14), the orifice extending along a lon...
