Default Fuel Injection and Variable Timing

Cars also use port fuel injection. I"m not aware of any airplane engine
that has port fuel injection. I'm sure that must add to the efficiency
of cars a lot. In the 80's some car manufactors used the intake
injection system airplanes use today (as well as throttle body
injection). Apparently they were very difficult to smog, that may tell
you something.
