O.S. Engines 160FX-FI - Manual (Page 7)

The injector consists of a solenoid valve with built-in regulator. It controls pressurized fuel at a constant
pressure and accurately injects fuel based on signals from the electronic control unit (EC-2).

Injector
Never attempt to disassemble the injector.
It may not be able to be reassembled.
Temperature Sensor This measures the temperature of the engine exhaust unit.
RPM Sensor
The RPM sensor is provided with a power generating sensor. When the crankshaft passes in front
of the sensor, the signal that is generated is transmitted to the electronic control unit (EC-2).
Engine speed is then calculated based on that signal which is then used to determine the timing at
which fuel is injected.
Electronic Control Unit (abbreviated as simply EC-2)
The EC-2 transmits fuel injection signals to the injector to ensure the proper amount of fuel
injection based on basic fuel injection data that has been previously entered and constantly
changes with position of throttle stick.
Y harness
Fuel Filter
Check Valve
This cord is used to connect the receiver (throttle channel), throttle servo and EC-2.
This fine mesh filter prevents foreigh matter from the fuel tank from plugging
the small injector valve.
This one-way valve's function is to pressurize the fuel tank by crankcase
pressure and prevent fuel from returning to the engine crankcase.

INSTALLATION OF THE AIR VALVE
As delivered, the engine has its air valve lightly installed into the intake boss. Secure it as follows.
Loosen the retainer nut, rotate the air valve to its correct position and make sure that it is pressed
well down into the intake boss, compressing the rubber gasket, before retightening nut.
Rotate the retainer nut gently until it stops, then tighten a further 90-120˚.
Do not overtighten the screw as this will damage the thermo insulator.
