The diesel engine has a rich and storied history. While you may or may not know the name Rudolf Diesel, you’re likely familiar with his namesake invention. From the 1900s to the current day, diesel engines have been essential in many industries and have provided increased fuel efficiency in various applications. What began as a passion turned into one of the most important engineering developments of the Industrial Revolution.
Diesel engines boast impressive durability, efficiency and longevity, but as they get older, they require more care and attention to continue providing reliable service. Keep reading for useful advice about caring for and prolonging the life of an aging marine diesel engine.
A chartered flight carrying 102 tourists from the Ningxia Hui autonomous region left Yinchuan International Airport and landed at Shiyan Wudangshan Airport in Hubei province at around 2 pm on Monday.
Passenger throughput at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport rebounded in July, which is the usual peak period for air travel, according to a statement released by the airport authority on Friday.
Diesel engines are efficient, durable and the engine of choice for heavy equipment and boats. If you’re a boat operator, you’re probably no stranger to diesel engine fuel problems. It’s important to know the signs of trouble as soon as they begin.
The diesel cylinder head in your engine probably doesn’t get a lot of attention until you notice a problem with your boat’s performance. Without cylinder heads, there’d be no pressure seal within engine cylinders or the internal combustion that powers modern engines.
Often we don’t realise just how dependant we are on our cars until something happens to them. Depending on what the exact problems are, repairs can be very costly, particularly if they have anything to do with the engine. This is one of the reasons why reconditioned engine parts are becoming a popular alternative for car owners everywhere because if fitted properly, they can make your engine run as good as new.
Automobile engines are complicated mechanisms that are made up of several internal parts that work like clockwork to produce that power that moves your vehicle. In order for the engine to operate properly it needs all of its parts to be in good condition. One fault can be disastrous! Let's take a look at the main parts of the engine.
The question of buying a flywheel versus a flexplate is an important one. These two components serve vital functions and help marine engines run smoothly. That means telling the difference and knowing when they need to be replaced is critical.
Your diesel engine needs to stay at a reasonable temperature to work properly. When it overheats, it can cause reduced performance or a complete failure, resulting in a replacement. If your diesel engine overheats, you can find the problem and get everything running again. Discover how to diagnose diesel engine overheating in boats.
