 Despite being developed more than 100 years ago, the diesel engine has yet to achieve mass acceptance in the North American passenger car sector. In most other parts of the world, however, diesel engines have made considerable strides over the past 20 years, thanks in part to the common rail fuel injection system. Significant fuel economy, reduced exhaust emissions, invincible low-speed torque, and all-around good drivability are a few of the benefits associated with common rail technology.
In recent years, more and more drivers have been drawn to diesel-powered vehicles. Bosch has played a major role in this European diesel boom. The modern high-pressure injection systems VP44 distributor-pump, Unit Injector and Common Rail have transformed the ponderous, smoke-belching slowcoaches of yesterday into the sporty, fuel-efficient and clean automobiles of today.
The Common Rail system in particular gives engine developers the freedom they need to reduce exhaust emissions even further, and especially to lower engine noise. The particular design of Common Rail, with its flexible division of injection into several pre-, main and post-injections, allows the engine and the injection system to be matched to each other in the best possible way. In the Common Rail accumulator injection system, the generation of the injection pressure is separate from the injection itself. A high-pressure pump generates in an accumulator – the rail – a pressure of up to 1,600 bar (determined by the injection pressure setting in the engine control unit), independently of the engine speed and the quantity of fuel injected.
 The fuel is fed through rigid pipes to the injectors, which inject the correct amount of fuel in a fine spray into the combustion chambers. Further enhanced with AdvaTechs's Diesel Unit KA3, the reduction of consumption, and PM emission are tremendous.
The Electronic Diesel Control (EDC) controls extremely precisely all the injection parameters – such as the pressure in the Rail and the timing and duration of injection – as well as performing other engine functions.
In the 1st and 2nd generation of the Common Rail technology, the injection process is controlled by a magnetic solenoid on the injectors. The hydraulic force used to open and close the injectors is trans-mitted to the jet needle by a piston rod. In the 3rd generation of Common Rail for passenger cars, the injector actuators consist of several hundred thin piezo crystal wafers. Piezo crystals have the special characteristic of expanding rapidly when an electric field is applied to them. In a piezo inline injector, the actuator is built into the injector body very close to the jet needle. The movement of the piezo packet is transmitted friction-free, using no mechanical parts, to the rapidly switching jet needles. The advantages over the earlier magnetic and current conventional piezo injectors are a more precise metering of the amount of fuel injected and an improved atomization of the fuel in the cylinders.
The rapid speed at which the injectors can switch makes it possible to reduce the intervals between injections and split the quantity of fuel delivered into a large number of separate injections for each combustion stroke. Diesel engines become even quieter, more fuel efficient, cleaner and more powerful.
The fact that AdvaTech's Fuel economizer unit KA3 is reducing diesel fuel's flash point, several advantages of the common rail technology are showing enhancements in form of further reduced fuel consumption rates and lowered emission rates. i.e. up to 93% lower PM (particulate matter) soot content in emissions.

   Installation Instructions - Activator for Diesel Engines KA3
 KA 3 Diesel Fuel-Activators are easy to install (Easy Do It Yourself in minutes).
Each diesel fuel injector (cap nut) need one Fuel-Activator.
(6-Cylinder need 6 / 8-Cyl. need 8 etc.).
The KA3 will be placed directly on top of the mentoned injector cap nut of each injector.
Due to the elastic design you can clamp it on easily without using any tools.
No additional fastener necessary.
The KA3 design will make it impossible to install the KA3 the wrong way.
The KA3 fits on all types of diesel engines with a cap nut size of 14mm to 24mm
(wrench size) (0.551 to 1 inch - or - 9/16 inch to 1 inch).
Regards ONLY propulsion engines: KA3 can be installed up to 24mm cap-nut size [60º angle].
Over 24mm diameter, each cap nut needs 2 Units, addressing the higher fuel flow volume.
Order for 6 Cylinder $360 + 10,50 S&H
Order for 8 Cylinder $480 + 10,50 S&H
