 Fuel flow rate through an injector is affected by a number of different things. ​ This page focuses on the fact that even with nicely matched sets down to 2ms (0.002 seconds) pulsewidths,​ there can still be significant differences in your typical operating range. Fuel flow rate through an injector is affected by a number of different things. ​ This page focuses on the fact that even with nicely matched sets down to 2ms (0.002 seconds) pulsewidths,​ there can still be significant differences in your typical operating range.

 The problem is that you may very well be spending a lot of time below that range. ​ And having injectors that are matched well in that range means little about the behavior outside it. The problem is that you may very well be spending a lot of time below that range. ​ And having injectors that are matched well in that range means little about the behavior outside it.
  
-For example, on a set of 1450 cc/min injectors running on gasoline with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, you'd expect to idle in the 1.6-1.7 ms range. ​ And as you can see in the next section, the behavior of any given injector down in that range can be very different from the behavior in the 2ms range. ​ It doesn'​t sound like much of a difference, but it can be as much as a 30-50% difference in some areas. ​ That's huge!  That's like having one cylinder running at 14.7:1 and another running at 9:1 with the same pulsewidth.+For example, on a set of 1450 cc/min injectors running on gasoline with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, you'd expect to idle in the 1.6-1.7 ms range. ​ And as you can see in the next section, the behavior of any given injector down in that range can be very different from the behavior in the 2ms range. ​ It doesn'​t sound like much of a difference, but it can be as much as a 30-50% difference in some areas. ​ That's huge!  That's like having one cylinder running at 14.7:1 and another running at 9:1 with the __same__ ​pulsewidth.
