The Turbo-Thrift 250 (also known as the High Torque 250 in trucks) version was introduced in 1966, with the same 3.875 in (98.4 mm) bore as the 230 and a longer 3.53 in (90 mm) stroke for a larger 249.8 cu in (4.1 L; 4,093 cc) displacement. Between 1975 and 1984, an integrated cylinder head was produced (intake manifold and cylinder head were a ...
The Motor 250/400 was tested extensively and eventually proved to be the most efficient engine of its time, reaching a thermal efficiency of more than 38 %. Out of the many tests, Moritz Schröter 's test conducted on 17 February 1897 was the engine's official test; [ 11 ] the effective power was 17.8 PS (13.1 kW) at 154/min. [ 29 ] According ...
Vapor lock is a problem caused by liquid fuel changing state to vapor while still in the fuel delivery system of gasoline-fueled internal combustion engines.This disrupts the operation of the fuel pump, causing loss of feed pressure to the carburetor or fuel injection system, resulting in transient loss of power or complete stalling.
Marketed as an off-road machine, the B25T Victor Trail 250 [33] used most of the components of the 250 Gold Star. The most significant changes were an alloy petrol tank, front mudguard mounted on the bottom fork yoke, [ 34 ] a 20" front wheel and off-road tyres, the rear being a larger 400 section. [ 35 ]
V-8 engines were produced by the Daimler Company in displacements of 2.5 L (153 cu in) (1959-1968) and 4.5 L (275 cu in) (1959-1968). Designed for Daimler by Edward Turner, they were initially used in the SP250 sports car and the Majestic Major saloon respectively; ultimately, the 2.5 L was mostly used in the Daimler 2.5 V8 (later named V8-250) saloon made with Jaguar Mark 2 unit bodies from ...
Honda claims the engine produces 28 horsepower at 8000 rpm and 17 ft-lb feet of torque. The 1996–2004 versions of the XR250R had 10.6 inches of suspension travel front and rear and 41mm front cartridge forks. The tire size was 80/100-21 front and 100/100-18 rear.
The lack of water jacketing caused considerable development problems when the 1.5 L in the Austin Maxi needed an optional larger engine size. The 1.5 L four-cylinder E series could not be readily bored out, the placing of the gearbox directly underneath the sump made stroking the engine more difficult, and the Maxi was too narrow to accommodate ...
