: Features individual plunger units for each engine cylinder, common in larger diesel engines.
The primary working principle of a fuel injection pump involves using a reciprocating inside a barrel to pressurize and meter fuel before delivering it to the engine cylinders . In a standard mechanical setup, a camshaft drives the plunger up and down, while a control rack rotates the plunger to adjust how much fuel is injected per stroke.

: To stop injection, a helical groove on the plunger eventually uncovers a spill port . This allows pressurized fuel to "spill" back into the lower-pressure gallery, causing the delivery valve to close instantly. : Features individual plunger units for each engine
