What else can I help you with?
What gasoline tho they use for small engines?
For the most part all small engines require 87 octane regular. Some 2 cycle engines require 89 octane gasoline. Refer to your owners manual.
Is it OK to use premium gas in small engines?
Most small engines are designed to run on regular unleaded gasoline; the higher octane premium gasoline may eventually be harmful to the engine.
Can a helicopter use petrel?
Yes, may small helicopters have piston engines that use petrol (gasoline in USA )
What is a gasoline turbocharger?
A turbo that is specifically for use on gasoline engines (as opposed to diesel).
What is the difference between diesel and gasoline engines?
Diesel engines ignite fuel through compression, while gasoline engines use spark plugs. Diesel engines are more fuel-efficient and have higher torque, but gasoline engines are typically quieter and have faster acceleration.
What is a gasoline engine?
That's an engine that burns gasoline, to produce motion. Many car engines use gasoline as fuel.
Why small vehicles do not use diesel engines?
Most small vehicles do not use diesel engines.
What oil weight to use in 5.9L cummins?
15W-40 is the generally recommended weight to use, while the API rating MUST be CJ-4 for 2008 and newer engines, while CI-4 can be used for 2007 and older engines. You MUST use diesel oil, as oil intended for gasoline engines is not intended to withstand the higher temperatures of diesel engines.
Do boats use gas like cars?
Most speed boats, especially with outboards, use gasoline engines. Larger vessels such as ships and commercial boats, generally use diesel. For raw power and performance, gasoline engines are still best. Big chevvy V8s are popular choice for powerboats with internal engines. Water and electrics (for the spark) do not mix well, so gas engines need to be maintained and looked after well and can be temperamental. For economy and reliability diesels are best. Which is why commercial vessels use them.
Who would use a steam engine?
Someone who doesn't want to burn gasoline. A steam engine has the ability to use anything that will burn. Had the technology been applied to steam engines like it was to gasoline engines, we possibly would have some viable steam engine transportation today. Steam engines were less efficient than gasoline or diesel engines, that is why they are not used much today.
What invention led to the creation of the car?
The modern automobile is the application of internal combustion engines to the existing carriages, that had been drawn by horses. The precursor, steam engines, were generally too large to use for personal transportation. The rise of gasoline and diesel engines made possible today's cars, trucks, and other vehicles. Other types of engines (such as small steam engines) did not prove as efficient to use. Until relatively recently, electric batteries were also not advanced enough to compete as automotive power sources.
What kind of gas does helicopter use?
Many small ones have gasoline engines. Most large and military helicopters have jet turbines, connected to a transmission that drives the rotor.
