Did Karl Benz start the automobile industry?

yes and no, he created the internal combustion gasoline engine, but there was steam powered vehicles before


How is a diesel engine different from other internal combustion engines?

Its a compression engine, as opposed to a spark driven combustion. No spark plugs! To start the engine, the piston is forced up (by a starter), it compresses the (heated) fuel in the piston which then ignites (under pressure) forcing the piston back down and initiating the engine to turn over.


What processes are involved in starting a gasoline engine?

There are four basic things you need to run an internal combustion engine. Fuel, spark, compression and sufficient cranking speed. If an engine fails to start, you are lacking in one of these areas.


Is electric car an internal combustion engine or is the a different type of engine?

An electric car is powered by a large electric motor. This motor is powered by the use of magnets in a coil inside the motor. When electric current is run through the motor, the drive shaft spins. This type of motor has an advantage over internal combustion engines because it offers all its torque at 0 rpm, thousands less than internal combustion engines. This makes the car quicker to start and accelerate.


Do carburetors start a car?

No, starters start an engine. A carburetor supplies the fuel/air mixture to the engine. This mixture combined with a spark, ignites the fuel/air mixture thus causing the engine to run. This is a very simplistic explanation. Search "how the internal combustion engine works" for more information.


Can you start a fuel injection with out a fuel pump?

You can start the fuel injector but is going to do nothing without fuel. Without gasoline being pumped to the injector is will not spray fuel and the engine will not run. Every internal combustion engine must have some sort of fuel pump.


Why water comes out of silencer in four stroke engines sometimes?

The water comes out of the silencer because in combustion of fuel the products after are water and carbon di oxide.When in morning Engine is cool and we start the engine,the water in liquid state can be seen coming out.


Why does your engine backfire when you try to start it when it is stone cold?

Incomplete combustion


Explain the basic principle of operation of internal combustion engine?

There are 4 strokes to your average everyday gasoline engine. As well as other little moving partsFuel/Air Valve Opens at the top of this stroke (highest point the piston will go)Stroke 1 : draws in the fuel/air mixtureFuel/Air Valve Closes at the bottom of this stroke (lowest point for the piston)Stroke 2 : compresses the mixture to maximize the explosionSpark plug ignites at the top of the strokeStroke 3 : this is where the internal combustion comes from, the explosion sends the piston downard and cranks the shaft that connects them all.Exhaust Valve Opens at the bottom of this strokeStroke 3 : piston is powered by the other pistons to send the piston back up to push out the exhaust fumesExhaust Valve closes, Fuel air opens to repeat the cycle.The initial combustion is achieved by the starter motor manually cranking the engine to force the pistons into action, think about some old timey looney toons cartoon when you see someone out in front of their car turning some sort of crank, that's what the starter does so you don't have to get out when you want to start it.


Advantages and disadvantages of four stroke petrol engine?

One advantage of having a four stroke petrol engine is the fuel economy. A disadvantage of the engine is in the cold weather they are harder to start.


How do cars run?

Most vehicles use an internal combustion engine powered by gasoline, ethanol, diesel, or propane. Some vehicles are electric driven by an electric motor powered by batteries. And there are hybrids that rely on both internal combustion and electricity. In the early days of automobiles there were vehicles powered by steam which burned wood or coal.Internal Combustion Engine.a car needs 3 main things to run (petrol engine only); compression, fuel and air. with out these the car will not run properly. depending on the car engines size will determine how many pistons you have. if your car is 4 cyl then you will have 4 pistons. The piston will start up in position when the key is turned over the piston is pushed down opening the air inlet valve bringing in air from outside, when the piston goes down it will fill with air. then the piston will come back up, (building compression) when the piston gets to a certain point the compression will push the piston back down when it hits the bottom it will ignite the spark plug. with the force behind that the exhaust valve will open and push the air and fuels out the exhaust pipe. if you have any more enquiries email- rhys_purkis@hotmail.com for more information.The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion so that your car can move. Currently the easiest way to create motion from gasoline is to burn the gasoline inside an engine. Therefore, a car engine is an internal combustion engine -- combustion takes place internally.Two things to note:There are different kinds of internal combustion engines. Diesel engines are one form and gas turbine engines are another. See also the articles on HEMI engines, rotary engines and two-stroke engines. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.There is such a thing as an external combustion engine. A steam engine in old-fashioned trains and steam boats is the best example of an external combustion engine. The fuel (coal, wood, oil, whatever) in a steam engine burns outside the engine to create steam, and the steam creates motion inside the engine. Internal combustion is a lot more efficient (takes less fuel per mile) than external combustion, plus an internal combustion engine is a lot smaller than an equivalent external combustion engine. This explains why we don't see any cars from Ford and GM using steam engines.A car runs by gas powering a motor. There are also cars that run from electricity and even vegetable oil.


A steam engine is an example of an?

An external combustion engine. It's also an example of an engine that will start itself (no starter motor required if it's the piston type rather than a turbine). It's also an example of an engine that has more torque when its running slowly than when it speeds up (if it's the piston type rather than a turbine).
