ROTARY DIESEL ENGINE is Yours BOSCH or LUCAS? Are your injectors Bosch or Lucas?
PEUGEOT ROTARY INJECTORS - EARLY and LATER TYPES
Bosch and Lucas are fitted to many rotary diesel engines
from the big manufacturing companies. Peugeot fit both Lucas and Bosch... Volkswagen probably tend to use
mainly Bosch but have been known to fit the lucas equipment. Lucas (also called CAV in it's time) has now
changed hands and is subsumed under the huge Delphi corporation.

The picture above should help!...notice the difference in the top body shape....follow it down from the threaded
inlet at the very top of the injector
Peugeot, Ford, Volkswagen....all of these manufacturers have fitted both Lucas and Bosch equipment ..e.g. some
Peugeot 205 have Lucas some Bosch
PEUGEOT ROTARY INJECTORS - EARLY and LATER TYPES
The Injectors pictured left are the early type with exposed nozzle..that's the shiny bit at the bottom. Later
Peugeots with DW8 rotary equipment were fitted with a 'shielded' nozzle type of injector.
Shielded nozzle is pictured on the right - the nozzle is inside the nozzle retaining nut.
