ABSTRACT:
An automatic measured shot starting fluid assembly (10) injects a predetermined amount of starting fluid into a passageway (11) of a diesel engine. The assembly includes a power source (12) to supply electrical current and a starter motor (14) and solenoid (16) for engaging and rotating the crankshaft of the engine upon receiving electrical current from the power source (12). An ignition switch (18) interconnects the power source (12) and the starter motor solenoid (16) for allowing electrical current to flow upon closing the ignition switch (18). An atomizer (30) is disposed in the passageway (11) of the engine for atomizing the starting fluid into the passageway (11). A measured shot valve (26) is connected to a fluid cylinder (24) for measuring a predetermined amount of starting fluid from the fluid cylinder (24) and injecting the measured amount of starting fluid through a conduit (28) to the atomizer (30). A control circuit (32) interconnects the solenoid (16) and the measured shot valve (26) for allowing current to flow from the starter solenoid (16) to the measured shot valve (26) for a first predetermined interval of time to measure a predetermined amount of starting fluid. The control circuit (32) also prevents current from flowing to the measured shot valve (26) for a second predetermined interval of time between successive measured shots of starting fluid continuously upon closing of the ignition switch (18).
