Every combustion engine car has pcv and tiny bit of oil going in. Maybe 1% of the Prius oil consumption is due to pcv. I wish it was much more...
Its not seat because passenger or not the sound comes up at 100kmh. And she has 217kkm/134kmiles on the clock. Has made this troughout our...
yep, of course. But that oxygen is replaced by something else. That does not influence reaction? Like make it weaker. Or its just about...
Got it. Still, the mixture is so different from normal combustion which also make me wonder. Normally there is fresh air + fuel but with egr there...
I dont know. You see, with diesels the percentage can be as high as 50%. And egr reduce (not add) pumping loss. That is the whole point....
No, it’s like trying to suck air with your mouth when teeth are together versus being in thin air and breathing with mouth wide open. Lungs have...
Yeah. What really puzzles me is that amount of oxygen is significantly reduced. On the other hand anybody who has kickstarted something know how...
Same fuel but different volume:) When the engine is operating at partial loads, by using EGR, the pumping losses are reduced and fuel efficiency...
Time to wake up old thread:) i did a long load trip that involved lot of 100kmh highway driving. Started wondering the weird noise car make at...
Thanks! I’ve actually never done this. Next time i’ll do, makes sense
Clogging of pcv system is whole lot more bigger problem in automobile industry than the tiny bit of engine oil going to intake. Recalls, damaged...
Cooled EGR shows benefits for gasoline engines ”EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) systems now in use on diesel engines were used to meet emissions...
I don’t think the catch can is worth the effort. Next thing you know it gets clogged (during winter) and there you have it:)
”On each side, I followed the repair manual recommendation to try the rotor each of five ways on the hub, and pick the one with least runout.”...
I noticed MPG improvement as well. It’s the pumping losses that get bigger if EGR clogged hence worse MPG. I guess pumping losses is one of the...
Changing the brackets is good plan and do not cost much. I did it for my other car when i replaced calipers. Now the brakes are and feel brand...
I am also wondering the engine oil change. Car is nose up in jackstand and the drain hole is in the front edge of oil pan. Does it drain...
There’s gotta be lots(!) of metal particles to make oil look silver color. That much metal does not come off without symptoms of some kind (sound,...
”If you're doing a long-distance travel job I don't think it makes sense to get a Prius over a Corolla.” Prius is 100x more cool:)
Perhaps not mistake but when i checked a video about egr and IM cleaning the actual passages to each cylinder were not mentioned nor cleaned. I...
