Separate names with a comma.
Well, my question is if a free poison engine can maintain that 42% over a larger range of loads. The problem with a lot of engines today is they...
Exactly! (y)
My place is work has gasoline pickups, CNG pickups, hybrid pickups, BEV pickups, and a whole lot of diesel trucks and machinery. 90% of the time...
Sorry for saying that a gas that doesn't burn is inert. You can take "air without fuel is inert" as a metaphor of that works for you. In reality,...
Simple: gas that doesn't burn or cause any reaction. Oxygen without fuel is, relatively speaking, inert. What do you cool your radiator with?...
Thanks for the English lesson. And this helps or hinders lean burn thermal efficiency and emissions how?
And what were your AFRs exactly? 15:1 is still very close to stoichiometric. A rich mix does cool the combustion chamber by vaporizing unburned...
There have been decades of myths around lean burn, so let me explain. The hottest burning AFR is stoichiometric, pure and simple. Stoichiometric...
I believe that generally it just becomes too expensive to make a diesel-hybrid in most cases, so less R&D to make it ultra efficient. And with the...
Right. And each has its pros and cons. But overall, hydrocarbons and hydrocarbons, and with enough emissions tech the exhaust should be about the...
Yeah, that name is terrible in my opinion. Pretty much any car with a number-letter type name are cars I can't remember how they're called. I...
Clean coal, clean kerosene, clean diesel, clean gasoline, clean jet fuel, clean propane, clean natural gas, it's all the same, really.
Also activated carbon canisters and such on the vehicle itself that trap the more-prevalent-to-evaporation gasoline.
Yes, I totally agree! I've been preaching for years that trying to get better efficiency from gasoline engines will result in similar emissions...
The problem isn't that diesels are dirtier, it's that they are more expensive to clean up. Well, I must not be people, because I'm not interested...
I like that companies like Mazda are trying to make engines more efficient. But I do like that Toyota makes a very aerodynamic car, the Prius....
I think profitability is the problem. I have to admit that economic cars have, perhaps, always came from other countries where labor is cheaper....
I'm pretty sure that it started for both the tax on US poultry as well as a way to protect US car manufacturers against the popular VW of the time...
Back in the day they were selling pretty well, but I do believe many more would have sold if it weren't for the chicken tax. I'm pretty sure we'd...
I guess I agree with you. I've been to other countries where used cars are practically the same price as new cars until they are completely...
