WHAT ARE THE BASIC PARTS OF PETROL ENGINE? HOW DOES PETROL ENGINE WORKS?
petrol does not last forever
it could be for the spark plug, petrol engines dont need glow plugs, diesel engines do
diesel engines doesn't use spark plug but uses heater plug.petrol engines produces more torque than petrol engines but petrol engines produces more acceleration than diesel engines.petrol engine is faster to be heated than diesel engine.
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
No, Mk1 and Mk2 petrol models had Zetec (belt driven)engines. Mk3 petrol models have Duratec (chain driven) engines. All diesel models have Duratorc engines
petrol ( or gas to the Americans) powers the combustion engines of vehicles.
Turbochargers are used on some petrol or gasoline engines.
No, diesel engines cost more to build than petrol engines. They are built much heavier.
Oil may be added to petrol for two cycle engines to provide lubrication.
sic difference between Petrol and Diesel engines that the difference of fuel and their mixture..in diesel we only compresses the Air and sprays Diesel but in Petrol Engines we compresses both the air and Petrol together and gets burnt with the the help of spark given by the Spark plug. I must add this, also the thermodynamic cycle is so different in diesel engines rather than petroleum engines. You can fined more in Reed's series volume 12
Because the engines will not run with the wrong fuel to to their design. Although both diesel and petrol engines are internal combustion engines, they have differences that enable them to use these different fuels. A petrol engine ignites the fuel/air mixture by using a spark plug. A diesel engine in contrast has no spark but compresses air during the compression cycle. When air is compressed it heats up. Diesel is then injected into the cylinder and it ignites.
They can be. Petrol engines can be either fuel injected, or have carburetors. Smaller engines, like scooters, lawnmowers etc are almost always carburetted, while car engines are usually fuel injected these days.
