Jetronic

So, kiddo, do you know what a car is? Yes? Good! Now, let's talk about how it runs.

When you put gas into your car, it needs to mix with air before it can go into the engine to make the car move. This is where the Jetronic system comes in.

Jetronic is a type of electronic fuel injection system that helps your car mix the right amount of gas and air. It works like this:

First, a sensor in the car measures how much air is coming into the engine. Then, the Jetronic computer uses that information to figure out how much gas to send into the engine. It does this by opening and closing tiny valves that control the flow of gas.

This is important because if you have too much gas and not enough air, the car won't run well. But if you have too much air and not enough gas, the car won't have enough power. So the Jetronic system helps your car find the perfect balance.

And that's how Jetronic works! It's like having a little computer in your car that helps it run better. Pretty cool, huh?
