The powerplant used in Saturn S-Series automobiles was a straight-4 aluminum piston engine produced by Saturn, a subsidiary of General Motors. The engine was only used in the Saturn S-series line of vehicles (SL, SC, SW) from 1991 through 2002. It was available in chain-driven SOHC or DOHC variants.
The SC1's engine was later upgraded to the 100 hp (75 kW) L24 engine for the 1995 model year. The first generation Saturn SC1 coupes shared the same fixed headlight front fascia as the SL sedans and the SW station wagons, rather than the pop-up headlight design used on the SC2 and the original SC. The SC1 also lacked a rear trunk lid reflector ...
The Saturn INT-17 was the first version of the Saturn II to be considered. It replaced the first stage's five J-2 engines with seven higher thrust HG-3-SL engines, giving 1,334,000 pounds-force (5,930 kN) of sea level thrust. It would burn a reduced S-II propellant load of 986,000 pounds (447,000 kg) in 200 seconds.
The S-II (pronounced "S-two") was the second stage of the Saturn V rocket. It was built by North American Aviation. Using liquid hydrogen (LH2) and liquid oxygen (LOX) it had five J-2 engines in a quincunx pattern. The second stage accelerated the Saturn V through the upper atmosphere with 1,000,000 pounds-force (4.4 MN) of thrust.
The Saturn MP Transmission were a series of 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic transmissions that were manufactured by Saturn Corporation exclusively for the S-Series.They were designed for transverse engine applications and was deployed in vehicles that output up to 122 ft·lbf of engine torque.
This is a list of Saturn vehicles, or vehicles produced by the Saturn Corporation, a former subsidiary of General Motors. The list spans vehicles from 1990 to 2009, [ 1 ] with concept vehicles as early as 1984.
This Saturn IB second-stage Auxiliary Propulsion Unit is similar to one used on the Saturn V third stage, which performed as an ullage engine for translunar injection. Ullage motors (also known as ullage engines or ullage rockets ) are relatively small, independently fueled rocket engines that may be fired prior to main engine ignition, when ...
Automatic – once placed in drive (or any other 'automatic' selector position), it automatically selects the gear ratio dependent on engine speed and load; Basically there are two types of engine installation: In the longitudinal direction, the gearbox is usually designed separately from the final drive (including the differential).
