Abstract

A multi-fuel injection system and method for generating combustion signals and metering signals for fuel injectors are provided. A first fuel and a second fuel may be received. A combustion signal may be generated to cause a fuel injector to perform fuel injection to inject at least one of the first fuel or the second fuel into a cylinder of an engine. A metering signal may be generated to cause the fuel injector to perform fuel metering to introduce the second fuel into a nozzle of the fuel injector while the fuel injector is not injecting either of the first fuel or the second fuel into the cylinder of the engine.
