Some of the recent edits took away a lot of useful info. For example, the D-Jetronic used to be called analog eletronic and is now just analog, which makes it more difficult to differentiate from the mechanical K-Jet that followed it. In some ways, mechanical K-Jet was a step backward, trading sophistication for lower cost and reliability. Also, the interesting usage blurbs were removed. Was this info wrong?

L-Jetronic Air Flow Meter

edit

The L-Jetronic don't measure the air mass. It had only an air flow meter and not an air mass flow meter. I corrected the German word Luftmengenmesser, but my english is to bad to write this in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.159.85.129 (talk) 21:47, 3 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Finding more applications.

edit

I just added Kawasaki 1980 Z1000-H1 world's first production fuel injected motorcycle. I (or someone) should check the last of the older Australian GM (GMH, Holden) engines, colloquially 202 6I and 308 V8, as used in Holden Commodore around VH, VK and VL models. These had EFI, not sure if it is L-Jetronic. These are (roughly) 1985 to 1988, so would be amongst the last applications, and are on pushrond engines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.222.239.128 (talk) 13:14, 14 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

"from the 1960s onwards"?

edit

The development apparently ended in 1996 or something like that, nothing has happened in the last twenty-five years. Should not the quoted part say "from the 1960s to 1996"? 5.18.244.22 (talk) 09:22, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

The L-Jetronic is a fuel injection system that requires an ignition control unit which does nothing but control the spark. The Motronic effectively uses the same injection system (so it technically is an L-Jetronic + Digital ECU), but since the Motronic has an ECU in the actual sense of that word, it does not need any sort of additional ignition control unit. Bosch decided not to call the Motronic "L-Jetronic + Digital ECU" for marketing purposes I guess, but technically its injection system is an L-Jetronic. The latest generations of the Motronic however do not use an injection system similar to an L-Jetronic. For this article though, I'd only mention this, but not explain it in too much detail. This means that the article could say that the development stopped in the 1990s. Being an "overview" article, the Jetronic article should not describe Bosch's Jetronic systems, it should only summarise them – a K-Jetronic works fundamentally different from an L-Jetronic, and I doubt that both systems can be described in sufficient detail in the same article.
