	While there is a carburated version these are among the first production non-luxury passenger vehicle engines equipped with fuel injection. This was not a conventional efi as we know today, but rather a form of mechanical engine management dubbed K-jet. K-jet is a CI-S (continuous injection system) The injectors literaly run continuous, not in short bursts as modern efi examples. The principle of CI-S is to continuously measure the airflow to control the amount of fuel supplied to the engine. This is achieved using an airflow control unit, consisting of airflow sensor, and fuel distributor. ~~The fuel~~ regulation is simply controled via pressure changes~~. K-jet was a big step towards modern fuel injection systems~~.
