  2. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

    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 crankcase. [2] Another way that the fuel oil can end up in the crankcase is because there is too much wear on the piston compression rings. [1]

  3. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_ventilation_system

    Blow-by, as it is often called, is the result of combustion material from the combustion chamber "blowing" past the piston rings and into the crankcase. These blow-by gases, if not ventilated, inevitably condense and combine with the oil vapor present in the crankcase, forming oil sludge.

  4. Exhaust gas recirculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas_recirculation

    The exhaust gas displaces atmospheric air and reduces O 2 in the combustion chamber. Reducing the amount of oxygen reduces the amount of fuel that can burn in the cylinder thereby reducing peak in-cylinder temperatures. The actual amount of recirculated exhaust gas varies with the engine operating parameters.

  5. Exhaust gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas

    Exhaust gas or flue gas is emitted as a result of the combustion of fuels such as natural gas, gasoline (petrol), diesel fuel, fuel oil, biodiesel blends, [1] or coal. According to the type of engine, it is discharged into the atmosphere through an exhaust pipe , flue gas stack , or propelling nozzle .

    www.aol.com/finance/full-coverage-car-insurance...

    Since your car ($3,000) is worth much less than the 10x amount ($8,000), full coverage probably isn't the best value. It would mean spending $2,400 in premiums over just three years — nearly the ...

  7. Primary polydipsia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_polydipsia

    Primary polydipsia may have physiological causes, such as autoimmune hepatitis. Since primary polydipsia is a diagnosis of exclusion, the diagnosis may be made for patients who have medically unexplained excessive thirst, and this is sometimes incorrectly referred to as psychogenic rather than primary polydipsia. [13]

  8. Radiator (engine cooling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiator_(engine_cooling)

    Such a system can be effective even with much smaller amounts of water. The downside to the evaporative cooling system is the area of the condensers required to cool the steam back below the boiling point. As steam is much less dense than water, a correspondingly larger surface area is needed to provide enough airflow to cool the steam back down.

  9. California's coming gas car ban: What it means - AOL

    A vote to prohibit sales of gas-burning cars starting in 2035 will bring sweeping change to California's roads, but there's plenty of nuance in the fine print.
