Why is a spark plug so importaint?
the spark plug provides the spark necessary to ignite the fuel and air in the engine, which allows your engine to run. without spark plugs, your engine wouldn't start.
What is SI engine and CI engine?
An SI engine is a spark ignition engine. A CI engine is a compression ignition engine. SI engines use spark plugs to ignite fuel in the combustion chamber. CI engines use compression in the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel.
Why there is spark plug in petrol engine and not in diesel engine?
Because a diesel engine doesn't need spark to ignite the fuel. Diesels are very high compression engines, and the high compression makes enough heat to ignite the fuel. To prevent the fuel from igniting prematurely, it is injected only after the valves have closed and the piston is near the top of the compression stroke. Once the fuel is injected, the heat from the compression ignites it instantly.
What are plugs?
If talking about spark plugs - they are what creates the spark in the engine to ignite the air/fuel mixture to propel the vehicle.
What engine uses a spark plug to ignite a compressed air-gas mixture?
A spark ignition engine, like your average gasoline/petrol burning car engine.
What is the spark plug used for?
To ignite the compressed flamable gas in an internal combustion engine
How does petrol fuel ignite in the engine?
The compressed petrol gas fuel is ignited by a spark plug thus causing the engines' power stroke.
How many spark plugs are in a 4 cylinder engine?
The number of spark plug in a 4-cylinder engine depends on the type of engine you have. Some engines only have four spark plugs on the intake side for the ignition of the fuel. Other engines have eight spark plugs, four on the intake side to ignite the fuel and four on the exhaust side to ignite the exhaust fumes.
What is the function of spark plugs in a car?
To provide an electrical spark to ignite the compressed air/fuel mixture in a gasoline powered engine.
How do a car starts?
Ignition switch brings on all the electrics including fuel pump and spark plug power. electric motor cranks the engine. On firing stroke piston in cylinder goes up and down draws in and compresses fuel. Just before piston at highest point in cylinder, a timed spark at the spark plug ignites the fuel and forces piston to go down, which in turn causes another piston to rise on the firing stroke and so on. Once engine started the electric starter motor disengages. The four phases of a cycle of a fourstroke engine are: suck, squeeze, bang, blow; induction, compression, ignition, exhaust.
Why does the motor stop on a compreesion stroke on your brigs and stration 17.5 motor?
The motor on a Briggs and Stratton 17.5 engine typically stops on the compression stroke due to a lack of spark or fuel delivery. If the spark plug is fouled, there may be insufficient spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture, causing the engine to stall. Additionally, issues such as a clogged fuel filter or a malfunctioning carburetor can prevent proper fuel flow, leading to the engine stopping during compression. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues.
What is the purpose a spark plug on a combustible engine?
The spark plug is an electrical fire to ignite the compressed air/fuel mixture at the correct time.
