Bendix Electrojector

The Bendix Electrojector was a trade name for an electronically controlled multi-point manifold injection (EFI) fuel injection system developed and made by Bendix Corporation. In 1957, American Motors Corporation (AMC) offered the Electrojector as an option in some of its cars; Chrysler followed in 1958.

The system proved to be so unreliable that conventional carburetors soon replaced it. Bendix then sold the Electrojector patents to German car component supplier Bosch. Developed over the next seven years with transistors as they became available, Bosch renamed it the D-Jetronic and introduced it in the 1967 Volkswagen Type 3.
