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. Pressure switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_switch

   Hydraulic pressure switches have various uses in automobiles, for example, to warn if the engine's oil pressure falls below a safe level, or to control automatic transmission torque converter lock-up. Prior to the 1960s, a pressure switch was used in the hydraulic braking circuit to control power to the brake lights; more recent automobiles use ...

4. Nissan Z engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Z_engine

   All Z engines had 4 cylinders, a total of 8 valves and a single overhead camshaft . Displacements ranged from 1.6 L to 2.4 L.The Z series' engine blocks were nearly identical to those of the earlier L Series with the exception of the Z24. While the Z16 and Z18 engines had a deck height similar to the earlier L13/L14/L16/L18 variants, the Z24 ...

5. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

   Crankcase dilution occurs when the fuel oil from the engine gets into the lube oil of the engine. This can be caused by the walls being wetted due to the fuel condensing in the cylinder. If the engine is cold, or there is an excess amount of cooling around the cylinder, [ 1 ] the fuel oil will condense and have a higher chance to end up in the ...

6. N-VCT - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-VCT

   [2] [3] NVTCS equipped Nissan engines do not have as high of engine speeds as VTEC equipped engines so NVTCS is simpler, quieter, and requires no special maintenance. [ citation needed ] Some Nissan engines only have N-VTC on the intake cam such as the GA16DE, QG16/18, SR20DE/DET (S14-15) or RB25DE/DET (R33-R34 GTS/GTS-T, GT/GTT) while others ...

7. Low-speed pre-ignition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-Speed_Pre-Ignition

   General Motors’ next-generation dexos1 specification (Dexos 1 Gen 2), [7] released in 2015, included an engine test based on a GM 2.0-liter four-cylinder Ecotec that will test for LSPI. [8] The ILSAC GF-6 standard (released in 2020) also include a test for oil-related LSPI events in gasoline direct-injection engines based on a Ford 2.0 L four ...
