fuel injector nozzles
Two turbochargers are exhaust-gas driven and increase the air flow pressure entering the
air intake manifolds
Fuel supply pump, located at the front of the engine, draws fuel through the primary and
secondary fuel systems from the vehicle fuel tanks and delivers it to the injection pump
