2. Oil pump (internal combustion engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pump_(internal...

   It is generally located inside the lower part of the engine, usually below and/or to one side of the crankshaft. On dry sump engines, at least two oil pumps are required: one to pressurize and distribute the oil around the engine components, and at least one other 'scavenge pump' to evacuate the oil which has pooled at the bottom of the engine.

3. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

   The fuel used to power the engine is called Model Engine Fuel, a mixture of methanol (70–40%), castor oil (20%) and nitromethane (10–40%). The Cox line of reed valve engines designed prior to 1960 used a rear reed valve induction system.

4. Total-loss oiling system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total-loss_oiling_system

   These engines were designed to have a total-loss lubrication system, with the motor oil held in a separate tank from the fuel in the vehicle, and not pre-mixed with it as with two-cycle engines, but mixed within the engine instead while running. Castor oil was often used because it lubricates well at the high temperatures found in air-cooled ...

   Old Buda 8-cylinder Diesel engine. Buda-Lanova engines were also used by the Whitcomb Locomotive Works of Rochelle IL. Two Buda-Lanova model DCS 1879 6 cylinder supercharged Diesel engines (6.75 bore x 8.75 stroke, 325 hp @ 1,200 rpm) were installed in both 65-DE-14a and 65-DE-19a Diesel electric centercab locomotives that were purchased by the Army and shipped over to Africa and Europe during ...

6. Automotive oil recycling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_oil_recycling

   Automotive oil recycling involves the recycling of used oils and the creation of new products from the recycled oils, and includes the recycling of motor oil and hydraulic oil. Oil recycling also benefits the environment: [1] increased opportunities for consumers to recycle oil lessens the likelihood of used oil being dumped on lands and in ...

7. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   Motor oil, engine oil, or engine lubricant is any one of various substances used for the lubrication of internal combustion engines. They typically consist of base oils enhanced with various additives, particularly antiwear additives , detergents, dispersants , and, for multi-grade oils, viscosity index improvers .

8. Two-stroke oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_oil

   The oil is dyed blue to make it easier to recognize in the gasoline. It appears black in this bottle because it is not diluted. Two-stroke oil (also referred to as two-cycle oil, 2-cycle oil, 2T oil, or 2-stroke oil) is a type of motor oil intended for use in crankcase compression two-stroke engines, typical of small gasoline-powered engines.

9. Petrol-paraffin engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrol-paraffin_engine

   A petrol-paraffin engine, TVO engine (United Kingdom) or gasoline-kerosene engine (North America) is an old-fashioned type of dual-fuel internal combustion engine with spark-ignition, designed to start on petrol and then to switch to run on paraffin once the engine is warm. The grade of paraffin used is known as tractor vaporising oil in the UK.
