Back pressure regulates the release of exhaust into a slower stream that keeps the exhaust valve temperature more consistent.

Why do you need the steam engine?
because the steam is very importance in main engine
How much hp has a rocket?
rocket what? an engine?, need to know the year and engine size.
How can you convert petrol engine in into diesel engine?
You can convert a petrol engine into a diesel engine by changing the fuel injectors. The fuel filters will also need to be changed.
Why compression ratio of petrol enine is 8 where as diesel engine is 22?
because a diesel engine ignites its fuel with pressure, and not with a spark like a petrol engine. that is why a petrol engine does not need as high a compression ratio as a diesel engine
Does an engine use electricity?
If you are asking about a steam engine, the answer is no. If you are asking about a gas or diesel engine, the answer is yes because the starter motor, the fuel pump and the ecu (engine control unit) all need electricity. In addition, most cars, trucks and motorbikes need electricity for other things such as the lights, the radio and the horn.
What is a backpressure?
A backpressure is a pressure which is opposed to the flow of a fluid.
Will putting a lower restriction single inlet dual outlet exhaust system on your truck harm the engine in the future or lower the overall life of the truck?
Not as long as your aftermarket exhaust is keeping backpressure in your system. Backpressure keeps the pistons from creating a vacuum in your exhaust and actually sucking harmful substances back into the chamber before the exhaust valve in the head can fully close, but keep your backpressure, save your engine.
Why use double exhaust in the car?
A dual exhaust system is designed to reduce exhaust backpressure, making the engine run more efficiently.
If i need a new muffler on my Honda civic will it affect the idle rpms?
Because of the loss of backpressure if can affect the idle.
How do you fix a poor acceleration and idling problem?
I experienced poor acceleration in my '95 Chevy blazer, which eventually became so severe that when accelerating, the engine nearly stalled.It turned out that my catalytic converter was disintegrating, and choking off the exhaust so severely that the backpressure was causing engine retardation. I took the vehicle to a muffler shop, where they performed a backpressure test on the exhaust to diagnose the problem. After replacing the catalytic converter, the problem was corrected.
Is it bad to run a Motorcycle with straight headers only?
Yes, for everyone's ears. Additionally some motorcycles will not run as well without the backpressure and can run lean causing engine damage
What causes a catalytie converter to turn red in a 1997ford f150 pickup?
Unburned fuel passing through it superheating the catylist. Either because of poor mixture or misfire usually. Check your backpressure-this condition can clog them up in almost no time. Use a vac guage and monitor at idle if it goes down while truck is running, backpressure is slowing down engine.
Would a clogged muffler make your check engine light come on?
Not directly, but it may make the light come on if there is high manifold pressure from the high backpressure. The check engine lights usually only apply for sensors and indicate a larger problem.
Test Drove a Del Sol today and it was a complete dog. How bad does the lack of exhaust from the header back hurt the power on a 94 Honda Del Sol with a d16 sohc engine?
probable quite a bit, due to a lack of backpressure... smaller engines need a reasonable amount of backpressure on the exhaust system, and if it was a Del Sol S, then it's gonna be a dog no matter what you do to it, but if it was a Del Sol Si, than it should have a reasonable amount of power, because the car is very light...
What causes backpressure in radiator when cold and cap removed?
I have the same problem and I hope I Can get an answer.
What happens if an inboard boat motor is under water?
If it's waterproofed and you've got snorkels on your intakes and exhausts then you should be okay... Otherwise, you know when your your car engine is underwater? Yeah, that... backpressure from the exhaust keeps the water out, but if the backpressure goes the water will rush up the exhaust, flood your cylinders and it's impossible to restart until it's dried out So basically if you're waterproofed your fine, if not then start paddling
How difficult is it to put a 2 liter Hyundai Accent motor into a 1997 Hyundai Excel?
2To be honest if you oversize your exhaust on an N/A car then you risk reducing the "backpressure" to the engine and hence reduce the overall performance. Just by changing the backbox on a 1995 to 1999 Hyundai Accent / Excell on a stock engine will change the "power band" from about 2k RPM to about 4k RPM. By getting the TB mod you will hopefully negate the larger exhaust backpressure reduction, but for a 2.0 litre conversion you will need to referr to www.performancehyundai.com ;)I put a 2L late model excel engine in my 92 excel(1.8L) not sure the difference between elantra and excel but all i did was kept the original "juicy bits" like radiator ECU and gearbox ect. and everythign fit perfectly, no over pressure or anything.
