SPQ14

This week we went deeper into diodes. We started exploring how a diode work and why it only travels in one direction. I have learned a lot on how the diode works internally and that has helped me to better understand what happens when they fail. Here is a video that helped me understand diodes.

SPQ14 Fuel Pumps

This week I started back in class at school. I have started to learn about fuel injection pumps. I took apart a Bosch single-plunger fuel injection pump. I learned how simple these pumps can be and the many different types of pumps.
