Displacement by engrsegun: 5:52am On Mar 16, 2015 |
Good Morning, Displacement We’re not talking about losing your keys. That’s misplacement. Displacement is the volume of air your engine can consume in a single revolution, and these days it’s usually described in liters. A Yaris, for example, has a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine. That means with every revolution of the motor, the engine draws in and expels 1.5 liters of air. The more air an engine moves, the more fuel it can consume with every turn. That’s why, on the whole, four-cylinder engines are thought of as more fuel-efficient than bigger motors like V-6’s or V-8’s. So, while a sub-compact car may only move 1.5-liters with every revolution, full-size trucks can draw in and spit out around 4.6-liters of air thanks to a V-8 engine. Again, more air means more fuel. Please Broadcast the tips to help others! Read more: www.casrepair. Whatsapp:08139503656 Bb:7974390C Care line:07064451975,08071568283 Enjoy your ride! |

engrsegun: Another epic lie. More air DO NOT always equate to more fuel consumption rather more air equate to more efficient ignition of fuel which relates to more power. What happens to Turbocharged engines and supercharged engines? Do they consume more fuel than natural aspirated engines with similar torque and horses? Pls do a thorough research befor writing next time. 2 Likes |

engrsegun: We cant all be right every time. The 1.5 litres of displacement of the Yaris or any internal combustion engine for that matter sucks not only air but a mixture of air and fuel and expels a lot of gases that are not air. The fuel itself could be dedicated or bi-fuel combination fuel supply. Remember there are cars that runs on propane gas(LPG) or mix with petrol. I remember we used to have a portable power generator that starts with petrol but runs with kerosene having two tank compartments one for petrol the other for kerosene! Imagine that! 1 Like |
