Later systems used electric chokes or exhaust-heat chokes for cold enrichment, although these had issues of their own. Additionally, the vapor pressure of modern pump gasoline may not be appropriate to prevent percolation in the Ramjet fuel distribution spider. [5] The cranking signal valve was also the source of reliability issues.
The 1986 Corvette saw the return of the convertible and was named as the Pace Car for the Indianapolis 500. 1986 also saw the introduction of the Pass Key I passive anti-theft system, wherein each key contained a special pellet that could be detected and identified by the car's computer system by detecting electrical resistance. Being early in ...
Cold inflation pressure is a gauge pressure and not an absolute pressure. This article focuses on cold inflation pressures for passenger vehicles and trucks. The general principles are, of course, applicable to bicycle tires, tractor tires, and any other kind of tire with an internal structure that gives it a defined size and shape (as opposed ...
Here’s another used car to avoid, according to U.S. News & World Report. In fact, the C-HR lands near the bottom of the 2019 affordable subcompact SUV rankings.
Kelmark GT. Kelmark Engineering was an American automotive specialty shop established in 1969 and based in Okemos, Michigan.It focused on high-performance custom V8 drivetrain swaps, the modification and production of rear and mid-engined cars, and custom-built turn-key automobiles (the Kelmark GT).
Goodyear Auto Service also provides free air pressure checks at any of their five locations in the Phoenix metro area and one in Tucson. They are open from Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Driver Information Center in a 2013 Chevrolet Cruze showing TPMS readout. A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light.
Reducing tire pressure also reduces the extent to which the tires grind against loose surfaces, significantly reducing dust and silt. Another function of CTIS is to maintain tire pressure if there is a slow leak or puncture. In this case, the system controls inflation automatically based on the selected pressure the driver has set.
