What does ct means in diesel engines?
its pretty much just a test for your emmision.
What is ddis technology in maruti cars?
DDIS means Direct Diesel Injection system which are used in diesel engines. It's similar to VVT (variable Valve timing) which are used in petrol engines.
What is diesel oil?
"Diesel oil" or "Heavy oil" is another term for diesel fuel. Not to be confused with "engine oil for a diesel engine" which means lubricating oil specially formulated for use in diesel rather than petrol engines.
What is fullform of VVT?
V V T means variable valve timing which are used in petrol engines and other is DDiS means Directs Diesel Injection System which are used in Diesel Engine
What is memu?
Memu stands for mainline electric multiple unit trains. That means they are pulled by electric engines instead of diesel engines. They are passenger trains in India.

Why petrol engines are faster than diesel engines?
Petrol engines are widely considered to be the most efficient of engines, because they are more refined than diesel. Since diesel is not completely refined, it cannot completely combust and so does not (in theory) produce as much energy per litre of fuel as a petrol engine. However, some diesel engines can be made to be much more efficient than petrol engines because they have a different type of fuel, and burn it in a different way.

What do the letters and numbers on Mercedes mean?
The letters e.g CLS is the model. The letters at the end usually mean the engines cubic capacity e.g the SLK 55 has a 5.5 litre engine. The cgi means that it is a diesel and if a d is on the end it also means diesel.
What is the most common use for borescopes?
Borescopes are instruments used to inspect visually area which can not be accessed by other means. They are commonly used to visually inspect aircraft engines, steam turbines, diesel engines, etc
How does diesel fuel ignite in the engine?
The engine's pistons compress the fuel (an air and diesel oil mixture) in the cylinders and the heat generated by that compression causes the fuel to ignite.A longer answerDiesel engines ignite their fuel solely by means of compression: whilst spark plugs are used to ignite the gasoline fuel and air mixture in gasoline engines, in diesel engines the diesel oil and air mixture is compressed to a very much higher degree, which causes a lot of heat. The resulting very high temperature causes the fuel to self-ignite.
Is diesel oil and diesel the same?
Diesel fuel is often referred to as "diesel oil" or "heavy oil". Do not confuse this with "engine oil for a diesel engine" which means "lubricating oil specially formulated for use in diesel engines". My first Ford Fiesta diesel's tax disc said - "Fuel - Heavy Oil". They've now realised that this term is anachronistic, and my latest tax disc reads "Fuel - Diesel". To be pedantic - Diesel fuel is an oil - Petrol is a spirit.
