It's not so hard to get the best possible car very good cars are still available but will be quite difficult to see them at popular price this fact coupled with the competition and customer pockets push most car dealers into getting something of the above nature I am a minute car dealer for now but also have personal preference 1. Accidents at front end is a No for me except it's very clear it's just a bumper fall off 2.accidents on unreplaceable parts of the car such as d side frame of rear fenders is also a No for me 3. Flooded cars!!!!!!? They are pocket drainers I won't advise my enemy to buy it when a white man evaluates a car and tell you non repairable I the black man claim I know how to fix it please who is deceiving who.. They gladly sell it off to us we face the troubles.. My advice to prospective buyers is to do a proper check [b]thousands of cars from the last hurricane will surely land in Cotonou and Nigeria [/b]I just feel bad for the buyers already. God help us all.
They are here already

The command is 'STOP', you don't need to move to any direction again utill you're asked to. While you stand still, you're been secretly monitored and assessed, subsequently you'll be told what to do nest. Just know that the spot you're is dangerous one. cheesy If you do anyhow you'll see anyhow cheesy

Bros,

This is the (basic) principles on which these engines operate, cars or not.

The word 'general pull force' is kind of ambiguous. Why, because pull or push is the the very attribute of a force when a body is accelerated (or decelerated ) from a point.

Torque has always been the definition i stated earlier, and not proven otherwise

Yes diesel technology has always been catching up and has become cleaner and more powerful ( no need to go into that detail)

Applications that requires more torque will defineitely find diesel more economical. (diesel generators, tractors etc come to mind)

BTW, i am an Engineer, that is my my language is like this grin
Bross me to nah Mechanic Engineer with 13 years barground xpirience in fluid mechanics in the UK . So you are not speaking to a novice .. when I said power it's for the a everage reader to comprehend . Howmany people here do you think knows what a torque convertor is?.so let's keep it simple. grin

i think the better word is DPF (diesel particulate filters). This is different from catalytic converters from a design standpoint..

nah bruh.

Torque and power DO NOT mean the same thing!

in the simplest of terms, Power is the rate of work and Torque is the amount of work done.

Now, Work is done when a force that is applied to an object moves that object. The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object (W = F * d). the rate at which this is done defines power, as the factor of time is put into consideration(i.e P=W/t)

Torque on the other hand is the twisting force that tends to cause rotation. The point where the object rotates is known as the axis of rotation.

Because of the high energy density of diesel fuel and the longer stroke as a result of the very design of compression-ignition engines, this naturally gives diesel engines the torque advantage. in other words diesel engines have a greater twisting force when it is running at low rpms.


Speed is not power (of course) but speed is a very important factor of power as power can also be defined as P= Force * speed (F*d/t). this is where petrol engines have the higher advantage, as they can be much higher revving (shorter stroke , lower compression ratio and lower energy density fuel)


Where is Siena when you need him grin

Cc. Egunmogaji , Gazzuzz, Kashif
Oga you are lecturing me on physics .
Let's stick to cars for the benefit of others .
Torque is force pulled in more than three dimensions hence rotational . I used free word power to establish the general pull force of a car not going deep into tech . Two cars of same spec different fuel ie petrol diesel the diesel Engine packs more punch . Petrol is meant to be quicker but diesel technology has caught up due to difference in compression ratio .
As for the Engine warming up slow in bigger engines they have included stuff like webesto .
For fumes in trucks they now ha e spark arrestors and in smaller engines the Cat converter is been upgraded to Euro 6.why do you think Engines that needs force and give loads of power are fueled by diesel . ?

Inception:
A typical diesel engine compared to its petrol counterpart equivalent is less powerful.This is because of the rpm due to longer stroke and higher compression it delivers compared to spark ignition engines, thus limiting the speed it cam be revved to.

But it is more torquey.
Is torque not power ?
Is speed power ?
So how is a petrol engine powerful than a diesel if what I said was right ? Bear in mind I'm not talking speed cos these days on everyday vehicles speed is and dependant on driver .

Yes U are right but you know its like a small cough not treated, it develops into something else, I have one of the E46 as we speak, this is waht I drive daily since I locked up the Range, I am suffering these symptoms as we speak, a year now, your BMW starts depritiating daily at very slow pace with minor faults.U see that ur air fuel ratio, when you start to fail it and leave it for too lo ng, your timing get messed up cos of ur variable timing and then shyte get messy, u begin to get hessitation and then things start playing with ur ECU thinking al sort trying to correct things. the list is endless.To cut lo ng story short, I had to recon my Engine,its even worse o n DIesel Engines.
