  • Swampʼs Diesel Performance Tips to Help Remove and Install Power

La Vergne, TN 37086 Tel 615-793-5573 or (866) 595-8724/ Fax 615-793-5572 Email: [email protected] Tips to help remove and install Power Stroke injectors. Removal: After removing the valve covers and the valve cover gaskets, but before removing any injectors, drain the oil rails by removing the drain plugs inside the valve cover. On 94-97 trucks theyʼre just under where the electrical connectors are on the gasket. These plugs are very tight; give them a sharp blow with a hammer and punch to help break them loose, then use a 1/8" Allen wrench. The oil will drain out into the valve train area and from there into the crankcase. Donʼt drop the plugs down the push rod holes! Also remove one of the plugs on top of each oil rail, (beside where the lines from the High Pressure Oil Pump enter) for a vent to allow air to enter so the oil can drain. The plugs are 5/8”. Inspect the plug O-rings and replace if necessary. If the plugs under the covers leak, it will cause a substantial loss of performance. When removing the injectors, oil and fuel from the passages in the cylinder head drains down through the injector bore into the cylinders. If not removed, this can hydro-lock the engine when cranking. There is a ~40cc dish in the center of each piston. Fluid accumulates in it, as well as in the corner on the outside of the piston between the piston top and the cylinder wall, due to the 45* slope of the cylinder bank.

  • Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies Increase Power and Torque
    Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies Increase Power And Torque EFI Hardware have increased the range of high performance Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies to include 43mm, 45mm, 48mm, 50mm and 53mm throttle plate sizes. The tapered bore results in an increase in air speed over conventional straight bore throttle bodies. This extra air speed enhances the engine's scavenging cycle to provide increased filling on each cylinder intake stroke. More air, plus the corrected fuel and spark delivery equals more engine torque and power. Tapered Bores are available in the EFI Hardware Pro Race Series Throttle Bodies. TAPERED BORE THROTTLES Tapered Bore Throttles have a clear advantage over Parallel Bore Throttles at increasing power and torque. By accelerating the air through a venturi (in this case a tapered bore) the air speed through the throttle body is increased. This enhances the engine cycle's scavenging effect to provide more air and fuel in the combustion chamber and therefore more power and torque. The Tapered Bore Throttle Body has 3 sections: ● Inlet from ram tube is the largest diameter of between 45mm and 55mm ● This then tapers down to a short parallel section for the throttle plate between 43 and 53mm ● There is a second taper down to the outlet flange of the throttle body of between 40 and 50mm HP RATINGS HP/kW Ratings vary from engine to engine. The power ratings given here are only a guide, and are not absolute power ratings. Engine power is determined by intake, exhaust, cylinder head design, camshaft design, compression ratio, fuel type and quality and many other factors.

    A Novel Steam Engine Concept Hadeel Solaka 4F1824 – Project Course in Machine Engineering School of Industrial Engineering and Management January 2007 Fördjupningsarbete i Maskinkonstruktion 2007 Ett modernt ångmotorkoncept Hadeel Solaka Datum Examinator Handledare 2007-Maj-02 Ulf Sellgren Ulf Sellgren Uppdragsgivare Kontaktperson Ulf Sellgren Ove och Peter Patell Sammanfattning Projekt uppgiften var att bygga upp en solidmodell av en BC-hybrid och att använda denna modell för att visualisera systemets funktion och för att illustrera dess kompakthet. Först skulle ett affärskoncept tänkas ut. Sedan skulle design och tekniska lösningar skapas, för att sedan leda till teknisk utvärdering och dimensionering. Projektet handlade om uppbyggandet av en solidmodell av en modern kompakt ångmotor som utnyttjar avgasenergin från en lastbilmotor. Detta kallas för en BC-Hybrid (Bottoming-Cycle Hybrid). För att kunna utnyttja avgasenergin från en lastbilmotor på ett effektiv sätt, kopplade ångmotorn direkt efter dieselmotorns utloppsportare(6-cylendrig). Detta medförde ett riskabelt koncept med ett vanligt dieselgrenrör eller med ett rakt grenrör. Kombinationen blev ett X-grenrör. Resultat utav detta blev en designmässigt lämpad produkt som har goda förutsättningar att lyckas väl på marknaden. Hybrid ångmotor är i enlighet med vår projektidé mycket slitstark, kompakt och miljö vänligt. Figur 1.

    MATEC Web of Conferences 90 , 01055 (2017)DOI: 10.1051/ matecconf/201 79001055 AiGEV 2016 Methods of preparing internal combustion engine cylinder bore surfaces for frictional improvement Kong Chung Hwa1,2, D.Ramasamy1,2,*, K. Kadirgama1,2, M. M.Noor1,2, M. M.Rahman1,2, M. Samykano1,2 1Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Malaysia Pahang, 26600 Pekan, Pahang, Malaysia 2Automotive Engineering Centre, Universiti Malaysia Pahang, 26600 Pekan, Pahang, Malaysia Abstract. Frictional losses piston to cylinder bore contact is a major sources of mechanical losses in an internal combustion engine (ICE). Traditional plateau honing produces a relatively rough cylinder bore surface with many valleys for oil retention and plateau surfaces that are usually has micro roughness's that causes mechanical friction to act as a bearing surface. A smooth polished dimpled surface is more ideal to achieve low friction and wear in an ICE. Alternative methods to create a smooth dimpled surface on a hypereutectic aluminum ADC12 substrate for frictional improvements are evaluated in this study using an oscillating wear tester (OWT). The methods include casting in the dimples in the aluminum matrix, sandblasting as well as embossing the pits. The texture samples are evaluated by examining the surface properties, measuring frictional coefficient as well as wear characteristics. It was found that the samples embossed with #320 grit sandpaper and sandblasted with #240 sieve sand samples had a reduced coefficient of friction (μ) of 23% at low sliding speeds before hydrodynamic lubrication mode and 6.9% in the fully hydrodynamic lubrication region. 1 Introduction The wheel revolutionized human civilization as it enabled heavy transportation of goods and commodities, fostered trade, made construction of larger structures possible and revolutionized human transport in the form of wheel barrows, horse carriages and ox carts.
