Best Answer

A step up from the carburetor, single point injection AKA throttle body injection is the earliest and simplest type of fuel injection. Single-point simply replaces the carburetor with one fuel-injector nozzle in the throttle body. Air/fuel ratio is controlled electronically depending on demand.

What is the difference between electronic fuel injection and multiple point fuel injection?

The word electronic is used to describe that the fuel injection is controlled by electronics, while multi-point injection is indicative of multiple injectors placed just upstream of each cylinder's intake valve. All modern fuel injection today is done electronically (the only reason people use the term electronic fuel injection is because it sounds better than single-point fuel injection.)

What does single point injecton mean in cars?

A vehicle with "single point injection" has one fuel injector injecting fuel for all cylinders, regardless as to how many cylinders the engine actually has. More modern vehicles are "Multi-point Injection" which generally means they have one injector per cylinder. In these cases each injector generally injects fuel for a specific cylinder. Hence a 4cyl engine would have 4 injectors, an 8 cyl engine 8, and so on. A single point system is cheaper to manufacture (less wiring, fewer injectors, etc), but generally is slightly less efficient than a multipoint system, hence why more modern cars are multi-point injection.
