  2. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

    A Fuel pump is a component used in many liquid-fuelled engines (such as petrol/gasoline or diesel engines) to transfer the fuel from the fuel tank to the device where it is mixed with the intake air (such as the carburetor or fuel injector). Carbureted engines often use low-pressure mechanical pumps that are mounted on the engine.

  3. Pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

    A small, electrically powered pump A large, electrically driven pump for waterworks near the Hengsteysee, Germany. A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, [1] by mechanical action, typically converted from electrical energy into hydraulic or pneumatic energy.

  4. Gasoline pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pump

    A gasoline pump or fuel dispenser is a machine at a filling station that is used to pump gasoline (petrol), diesel, or other types of liquid fuel into vehicles. Gasoline pumps are also known as bowsers or petrol bowsers (in Australia and South Africa), [2] [3] petrol pumps (in Commonwealth countries), or gas pumps (in North America).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Isuzu_engines

    The 4JG1 engine has a trochoid type oil pump, gear driven from the camshaft. The fuel system operates by plunger and nozzle and is of the high pressure solid injection type (Zexel in-line Bosch A-type). The starter motor is a 12 V unit. The firing order 1-3-4-2. 18.6

  6. Fuel control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_control_unit

    Gas turbine engines are primarily controlled by the amount of fuel supplied to the combustion chambers.With this in mind we can say that, the very simplest fuel control for a turbine engine is a fuel valve operated by the pilot.

  7. Two-stroke engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_engine

    The crankcase-scavenged engine, employing the area below the piston as a charging pump, is generally credited to Englishman Joseph Day. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] On 31 December 1879, German inventor Karl Benz produced a two-stroke gas engine, for which he received a patent in 1880 in Germany.

  8. Internal combustion engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine

    This spark, via the spark plug, ignites the air-fuel mixture in the engine's cylinders. While gasoline internal combustion engines are much easier to start in cold weather than diesel engines, they can still have cold weather starting problems under extreme conditions. For years, the solution was to park the car in heated areas.

  9. Pressure-fed engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-fed_engine

    Pressure-fed rocket cycle. Propellant tanks are pressurized to directly supply fuel and oxidizer to the engine, eliminating the need for turbopumps. The pressure-fed engine is a class of rocket engine designs. A separate gas supply, usually helium, pressurizes the propellant tanks to force fuel and oxidizer to the combustion chamber. To ...
