What else can I help you with?
What to do if your automobile engine temperature is always cold?
either your gauge/sensor or your thermostat or both need replacing. Internal combustion engines do not run cool
What are cold air intake kits used for?
Cold air intake kits are used for bringing relatively cool air into a car's internal - combustion engine. Cold air intake kits are also marketed with claims of increased engine efficiency and performance.
Is cold air good for engine combustion?
yes
During cold conditions especially in the morning the diesel engine when you start it it runs so rough i want to know why this is so?
In cold conditions, diesel engines can run rough at startup due to several factors. Firstly, low temperatures can cause the fuel to thicken, making it less efficient for combustion. Additionally, the viscosity of engine oil increases in cold weather, leading to increased friction and sluggish engine performance. Moreover, cold temperatures can affect the glow plugs, which are essential for pre-heating the combustion chamber, resulting in incomplete combustion and rough running until the engine warms up.
Why does your engine backfire when you try to start it when it is stone cold?
Incomplete combustion
How does a hybrid save fuel?
By being able to use a smaller, lower horsepower, more fuel efficient internal combustion engine than would normally be needed for a vehicle of that size and weight.By being able to run on electric power only for limited periods of time.By being able to stop the internal combustion engine when the vehicle is not moving, thus eliminating fuel wasted while idling.Each of these needs additional explanation: A vehicle needs a certain amount of horsepower (depending on its size, weight, drag, speed, etc.) to cruise at a constant speed and more horsepower to accelerate. For an ordinary vehicle the internal combustion engine must be designed to be able to provide the maximum horsepower needed for the highest rate of acceleration. But for a hybrid the internal combustion engine only needs to be designed to be able to provide the maximum horsepower needed to cruise at a constant speed at the highest speed the car is intended to be driven at, with the electric motor providing the additional horsepower for acceleration. Because a smaller, lower horsepower internal combustion engine can be designed to always be more fuel efficient across the range of horsepower demanded of it than a larger, higher horsepower internal combustion engine, the hybrid saves fuel this way.When the vehicle is cruising at a low enough speed that the electric motor is able to provide all the horsepower needed to keep the speed constant then the internal combustion engine can be stopped, entirely eliminating use of fuel until such time that it is necessary to restart the internal combustion engine (either to recharge the battery or because of a change in driving conditions e.g. more horsepower needed to climb a hill). Also when going downhill or during breaking the hybrid vehicle can recover some of the energy that would just be wasted as heat in an ordinary vehicle, by turning their electric motor into an electric generator and using it to charge the hybrid battery so that this energy can be used later by the electric motor (this is called: regenerative breaking).When the vehicle is not moving, running the internal combustion engine just wastes fuel (except to keep it warm in very cold weather, which hybrids will do if they detect the engine is too cold for proper operation), so the ability of a hybrid to stop the engine and restart it later when the car needs to move again saves fuel that an ordinary vehicle wastes.
Why does a 1996 Volvo 960 hard to start in cold temp?
With any internal combustion engine the main components to make it run are fuel and air. When an engine is cold (internal temp) there needs to be a different mixture of fuel and air to make it run. That's why older cars with engines with carburetors (the components that mixes air and fuel) you needed to let the engine "warm up" before driving. The air (ambient or outside temperature) must be within a range to optimize the combustion. On newer engines that use "Electronic Fuel Injection" (EFI) the air and fuel ratio are controlled by sensors. One of those sensors is a cold start sensor that sits right under the air intake hose on a 960. The sensor is sensitive to a range of ambient air temperatures and if the ambient temperature falls under that range i.e. it's damn near freezing!, the car will be harder to start. That is in addition to the internal cold temp of the engine metal.
What is an example of cold start fuel ratio?
An example of a cold start fuel ratio is the air-fuel mixture used in internal combustion engines during the initial startup phase, typically around 12:1 to 14:1 (air to fuel). This ratio is richer than the standard stoichiometric ratio of 14.7:1 to ensure proper ignition and operation when the engine is cold. A richer mixture helps to overcome the challenges of increased friction and incomplete combustion at lower temperatures.
Machine that transforms heat into mechanical energy?
A ficticious heat engine that works at the maximum theoretical efficiency is called a Carnot engine. Real engines, that obviously work at a lesser efficiency, include the combustion engines found in cars.A ficticious heat engine that works at the maximum theoretical efficiency is called a Carnot engine.

Is it possible to use cold air in Internal Combustion engines?
depends what u mean...there r actual modifications for cars called "cold air intakes" in theory, the colder the air, the better the engine will perform bcoz the air is more dense and so more oxygen molecules in it. this is where nitrous comes in.....the actual nitrogen doesnt burn, but it is an extremely cold gas and simply "sprays" in more oxygen
What is DI?
DI means Direct Injection. Diesel engine depending on combustion categorised in Direct injection or InDirect injection Engine. Direct Injection engine combustion takes place directly above the piston. But indirect injection combustion initially takes place pre-combustion chamber and after transfered to above piston.DI engine more fuel efficient, easily start in cold condition, But Noise more.
What is the purpose of a cold air intake?
The main purpose of cold air intake is to increase mileage. As the engine takes in cold air instead of warm, the engine cools down and more energy can be used to run the car instead of having to use up the energy cool it.
