2. Oil pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pressure

   Murphy oil pressure gauges with switches that activate on low pressure. Oil pressure is an important factor in the longevity of most internal combustion engines. [1] With a forced lubrication system (invented by Frederick Lanchester), oil is picked up by a positive displacement oil pump and forced through oil galleries (passageways) into bearings, such as the main bearings, big end bearings ...

3. Oil pump (internal combustion engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pump_(internal...

   Indications of low oil pressure may be that the warning light is on, a low pressure reading on the gauge, or clattering/clinking noises from the engine. Low oil pressure is a problem that must be addressed immediately to prevent serious damage. The leading cause of low oil pressure in an engine is wear on the engine's vital parts.

4. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

   Strain-Gauge: Strain gauge based pressure sensors also use a pressure sensitive element where metal strain gauges are glued on or thin-film gauges are applied on by sputtering. This measuring element can either be a diaphragm or for metal foil gauges measuring bodies in can-type can also be used.

5. Briggs & Stratton - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briggs_&_Stratton

   The Twin Cylinder Engine – This engine was introduced in 1977 as a means of competing with Briggs & Stratton's rivals, particularly Japanese firms like Honda who were cutting into traditional Briggs & Stratton markets by producing lawn mower engines (and later, complete lawn mowers). These first models were rated 16 hp (11.9 kW) and displaced ...

6. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

   MAP sensors measure absolute pressure. Boost sensors or gauges measure the amount of pressure above a set absolute pressure. That set absolute pressure is usually 100 kPa. This is commonly referred to as gauge pressure. Boost pressure is relative to absolute pressure - as one increases or decreases, so does the other.

7. Cylinder Head Temperature gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Cylinder_Head_Temperature_gauge

   The ring under the spark plug is used to transfer the heat from the plug to the thermocouple. The gauge and cold junction are usually calibrated at room temperature, 72 °F (22 °C). Because the thermocouple is calibrated for room temperature, the gauge readings will only be 100% accurate at that engine compartment temperature.

8. This Is The Best Place To Put A Thermometer In A Turkey - AOL

   The same goes for deep-fried turkey—pull it out of the oil briefly to insert the thermometer. When grilling, make sure to check the temperature on the side facing away from the heat source.

9. Mercury pressure gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_pressure_gauge

   The parent of all mercury pressure gauges is the mercury barometer invented by Evangelista Torricelli in 1643. [15] An early engineering application of the mercury pressure gauge was to measure pressure in steam boilers during the age of steam. The first use on steam engines was by James Watt while developing the Watt steam engine between 1763 ...
