in an engine the air mixes with the gas and is fired by spark plugs. the more air the finer the gas and the easier it combusts. but be careful because if you mix too much air it will decrease the performance
yes
In automotive engine terms, the air intake system would include everything between and including the air filter housing to the heads on the engine. The automotive HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system also has an air intake system. This is where fresh air or recycled cabin air circulates in the cabin area.
Help the engine breath better by improving the air filter/intake system and the exhaust system.
No, not really. Any increase in mileage will be minimal at best. Far outweighed by the cost of the cold air system.
You need to check the up stream or dirty side of the intake system
Not every HVAC system includes a fresh air intake. Some systems rely solely on recirculating indoor air, while others incorporate a fresh air intake to improve indoor air quality.
A cold air intake regulates the amount of cold air coming into a car and ensures the air is properly filtered.
You will not damage your engine if you remove its cold air intake. The cold air intake system is merely added to increase engine efficiency and performance.
The intake air temperature sensor on a 1992 Toyota 4Runner will be found on the intake system. The unit is clipped into the plastic piping of the intake.
The intake air temperature sensor on a 2007 Honda Civic is found inside the intake system. The sensor is placed near the air filter box.
A Helmholtz resonator intake system improves engine performance by reducing air turbulence and increasing air intake efficiency, resulting in better combustion and increased power output.
A cold air intake is an aftermarket part used to help open air flow to the engine. The cold air intake sucks up cold air from underneath the car and is attached to your intake manifold. So it is a pipe going from somewhere close to the bottom of the engine compartment leading to your intake manifold.
