A car that has more cylinders, unltimatley has more pistons inside of the cylinders so the create more energy in a shorter period of time, but they also would have a lower mpg because they use more gas as well.
Generally more power as long as the car is naturally aspirated.
your car overheats. Your oil is not going through the cylinders creating lots of heat
The more cylinders there are the more power the engine produces. That's why a bigger vehicle like a truck has 8 cylinders while a small compact car that doesn't weigh very much has a 4 cylinder.
Depending on the individual car, they come with 4 cylinders or 6 cylinders.
A cylinder misfire happens when one or more of your 6 cylinders of your V6 eninge does not fire properly due to lack of fuel, spark or compression. The more cylinders that are not fireing the more violent the shake will be. If enough cylinders are not firing the car will not run. When you have a misfire with this vehicle your check engine light will flash. The engine light, oil light etc... are known as idiot lights. You ask what this means? IT MEANS YOUR VEHICLE NEEDS SERVICING UNLESS YOU WANT A BLOWN ENGINE!!!
If you mean in a car, more cylinders=more pistons so uses more fuel. The larger the car the larger the engine must be to proper it so if fuel efficiency is what you want, you need the smallest car you can get away with that passes your drive test. many of these are so efficient now, they are underpowered-a common complaint.
An electric motor has no cylinders.
A car having multiple cylinders makes the power evenly dispoursed so the engine runs more smoothly compared to 1 cylinder
How much and where was it put? In the oil, change it. In the carb, don't worry about it. It will pass through the engine, be burned in the cylinders and be gone.
When the internal combustion happens inside the engines cylinders, a "by product" is made. This is called exhaust. An exhaust system takes that from the engine out the back of the car through metal piping.
If your car is a V6, it means it has six cylinders. If your car is a V8, it means that it has eight cylinders.
Buy a new car.
it has more horsepower and does not waste as much fuel.
