  2. Firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firing_order

    For this inline-4 engine, 1-3-4-2 could be a valid firing order. The firing order of an internal combustion engine is the sequence of ignition for the cylinders. In a spark ignition (e.g. gasoline/petrol) engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which the spark plugs are operated. In a diesel engine, the firing order corresponds to ...

  3. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    The Lancia Fulvia V4 engines with narrow V angle have crank pin offsets corresponding to the V angles, so the firing interval matches that of a straight-four engine. Some V4 engines have irregular firing spacing, and each design needs to be considered separately in terms of all the balancing items.

  4. Big-bang firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big-bang_firing_order

    A big bang engine has an unconventional firing order designed so that some of the power strokes occur simultaneously or in close succession. This is achieved by changing the ignition timing, changing or re-timing the camshaft, and sometimes in combination with a change in crankpin angle. The goal is to change the power delivery characteristics ...

  5. Ignition timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_timing

    Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.

  6. Ford Essex V4 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Essex_V4_engine

    The cylinder firing order was 1-3-2-4. The 1.7 L and 2.0 L engines in the Transit van had a standard compression ratio of 7.7:1. A ratio of 9.1:1 was standard for 1.7 L engines in passenger cars, while 8.9:1 was standard for 2.0 L engines in passenger cars and was optional for the 2.0 L in the Transit.

  7. Straight-five engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-five_engine

    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.

  8. Ford Model A engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_A_engine

    [1] [11] [19] [20] Cylinder firing order is 1-2-4-3. [18] Ford Model A engine, left side. The engine has a 5-quart oil capacity. The crankcase is filled through an engine fill/breather tube mounted on the engine's left side. Modern 10W30 oils are recommended for newly rebuilt engines. [21] The recommended oil change interval is 500 miles. [11]

  9. Talk:Firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Firing_order

    Ford's Windsor class engines--302W and 351W--have different firing orders. Ford reversed the position of the #2 and #3 crankpins location when they built the 351W. Why? They observed that the firing order used on the 302W caused unacceptably high peak stresses at the #3 and #4 crankpins and #4 main bearing when using that sequence. Reversing ...
