The #1 cylinder is at the right rear with cylinders 1, 3, and 5 on the right, while #2 is the left rear with cylinders 2, 4, and 6 on the left. [2]: 24 The firing order is: 1-4-5-2-3-6. The crankcase is cast as two box-section halves. The assembled crankcase provides for four main bearings. There are four cylinder head studs per cylinder, for a ...
The GM E-Turbo engine is a gasoline-fueled engine developed by General Motors as part of the company’s next-generation turbocharged engine family. The engine features a start-stop system , gasoline direct injection , an electric water pump and an electric turbocharger wastegate to optimize fuel efficiency .
The Group 1 engines were the smallest in displacement and outer dimensions, and differed most significantly from the larger Group 2 and Group 3 engines by having only four main bearings (whereas the Group 2 and 3 engines had seven) [1]: 15 and a different firing order (1-5-3-6-2-4, whereas the others are 1-4-2-6-3-5).

Animation of the 1-2-4-5-3 firing order MAN B&W 5S50MC 1,865 litre marine diesel engine. Straight-five engines are typically shorter than straight-six engines, making them easier to fit transversely in an engine bay. [1] They are also smoother than straight-four engines, [1] and are narrower than V engines [2] and flat engines.
For example, the cycle average value of BSFC for a gasoline engine is 322 g/(kW⋅h), translating to an efficiency of 25% (1/(322 × 0.0122225) = 0.2540). Actual efficiency can be lower or higher than the engine’s average due to varying operating conditions.
Engine balance refers to how the inertial forces produced by moving parts in an internal combustion engine or steam engine are neutralised with counterweights and balance shafts, to prevent unpleasant and potentially damaging vibration. The strongest inertial forces occur at crankshaft speed (first-order forces) and balance is mandatory, while ...
Circa-1960 Saab two-stroke engine 2010 Suzuki K10B engine. Among the first cars to use a straight-three engine is the 1953–1955 DKW F91, powered by a 900 cc (55 cu in) two-stroke engine, although this was predated by the 3 cylinder 15hp Rolls Royce produced in 1905 and a number of other cars of this era also used 3 cylinder engines.
