It depends on if the cylinders are in line or 'V' formation

What is meant by the term 'the engine firing interval'?

Its a scary term at first but its easy to understand once you get the knack for it. An engine that has a 270 degree firing order means the bangs (power stroke) from each cylinder are 270 degrees of crankshaft rotation appart. When cylinder one fires, cylinder two will fire 270 degrees later, this trend would continue if the engine had more cylinders i.e. 4,6,8,10, and 12 cylinder engines. If and engine had a 360 degree firing interval its the same as above, cylinder one goes bang, cylinder two goes bang 360 crankshaft degrees later. Hope this helps. Its a scary term but its easy once you get the knack of it. Firing interval means the degrees in crankshaft rotation the power strokes are appart in an engine. Take for example the engine in the 2008 Triumph Scrambler it is a twin cylinder engine with a firing interval of 270 degrees. In this engine when cylinder one goes on its power stroke, cylinder two will have its power stroke 270 crankshaft degrees later. Ok now lets take the Cheverolet Corvette, Chevy has the firing interval at 90 degrees. So that means cylinder one fires then cylinder 8,4,3,6,5,7,2 follow all 90 degrees appart from each other. Hope this helps

How far is 12 degrees btdc?

12 degrees is an angular measurement. BTDC means Before Top Dead Centre 12 degrees BTDC therefore means an angular measurement of 12 degrees against the working rotation of the crankshaft


What is the part of reciprocating engine?

The main parts of the reciprocating engine are the crankshaft and pistons. They reciprocate in the cylinder block.


What the piston in engine moves down due to combustion but how does it move up?

In the case of a single cylinder engine it would require a LARGE flywheel, so that rotary momentum is maintained. In the case of a multi-cylinder engine there are multiple firings of individual cylinders in 360 degrees of crankshaft rotation. Each cylinder as it fires helps the crankshaft maintain rotary momentum, thus a lighter flywheel is required.


How many degrees of crankshaft rotation does it take to complete one complete engine cycle in a 4-stroke engine?

In a 4-stroke engine, one complete engine cycle consists of four strokes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. This cycle requires two full rotations of the crankshaft, which equals 720 degrees of crankshaft rotation. Each stroke corresponds to 180 degrees of crankshaft movement, collectively completing the cycle.

Where is a crankshaft sensor on 88 celebrity?

The location of the crankshaft position sensor depends on which engine the car has. If it is the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine the crankshaft position sensor is behind the ignition module. If it is the 2.8L V6 engine the crankshaft position sensor is on the side of the engine nearest the firewall and just above the pan rail in about the center of the block.
