What is the basic different between spark ignition in diesel engine?
Diesel Engines don't have spark ignition. Diesels compress the air in the combustion chamber until it's hot enough that the fuel will self ignite on injection. Some diesels have glow rods to enable then to achieve ignition at slightly lower compression, making them run a bit smoother. Spark ignition, as in a gasoline engine is when you haven't got enough compression for self-ignition, so you add a spark to ignite the fuel-air mixture instead.
Truck will not start?
Dead battery, defective ignition switch, defective starter, loose or corroded wiring. Not to mention no spark, no fuel, no fuel/air mix, no injection.
How do emissions differ in spark ignition and compression ignition?
Drastically because they use two different types of fuel.
What is different with the motors these days from the old days?
Electronic fuel injection, Breakerless/electronic ignition (no points),
What would cause a car to be sluggish?
spark plugs need changing- ignition wires could be changed- put octane boost into your gas, or fuel injection cleaner.
Does an mpfi engine replace spark plug?
No. Spark plugs remain in Petrol engines. MPFI stands for Multi Point Fuel Injection, thus replacing the carburetor with injectors. Petrol engines need a source for ignition unlike Diesel engines, where the ignition happens due to compression.
What would cause no spark and no fuel pressure?
No spark and no fuel pressure can be caused by several issues, including a faulty ignition system (like a bad ignition coil or distributor) that prevents the spark plugs from firing. Additionally, a malfunctioning fuel pump, clogged fuel filter, or issues with the fuel injection system could lead to a lack of fuel pressure. Electrical problems, such as blown fuses or bad relays, may also affect both systems. Lastly, a failing engine control unit (ECU) can disrupt signals necessary for both spark and fuel delivery.
What does 'sidi' stand for?
SIDI in automotive, stands for "Spark-Ignition Direct-Injection" which is a type engine by GM. An example is Cadillac CTS 3.6 SIDI. It produces more horsepower and torque than a PFI engine (Port Fuel Injection).
Does a fuel injection engine have points in a distributor?
No, a fuel injection engine does not have points in a distributor. Traditional ignition systems used in carbureted engines often employed a distributor with points to control the timing of the spark. In modern fuel-injected engines, ignition timing is typically managed electronically without the need for mechanical points. Instead, these engines may use coil-on-plug systems or distributor-less ignition systems (DIS) for more precise control.
Where are the spark plugs '02 f150 5.4?
The plugs are located on the inboard side of the cylinder head near the intake manifold, under or near the fuel injection rails. You do not have spark plug wires, but rather 8 separate ignition coils that sit on top of the spark plugs.
What is preignition of fuel?
Pre-ignition of fuel that occurs in a spark-ignition engine is when the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder ignites before the spark plug actually fires. It can be initiated from a hot spot such as in the combustion chamber.
Does a 2007 Yamaha vstar 1100 custom have fuel injection or electronic ignition?
no
