when was fuel injection introduced?
I am looking at a 454 for sale out of an 86 truck, when was FI introduced? 87? I have a 350 out of an 87 Jimmy that has TBI. Couldn't easily find a history of when FI was introduced... Thanks very much!

The first electronic fuel injection system for cars was invented in 1966 in Britain.
