In the current market, it is common to see new diesel trucks putting out over 1,000 lb-ft of torque from the factory. That's just in the consumer space. When it comes to heavy-duty industrial ...

Yes, diesels last longer than gas engines, but it's mainly due to its manufacturing. A typical diesel engine is bigger, heavier, and has sturdier components to withstand the higher compression ratios.

While the majority of diesel-powered vehicles on the road today use turbos, not all diesel engines have them. Read more: The ...

We all know diesel engines produce Earth-moving torque to outclass gas engines in pulling power and heavy-duty workloads. We ...

Diesel engines don’t have spark plugs; instead, they use the super-heated air created by their high compression ratios to ignite the diesel fuel as it’s injected into the cylinder.

No, diesel engines do not use spark plugs. Instead of relying on physical ignition of the fuel, they run on a compression-based explosion to combust the diesel fuel.

Consequently, natural gas engines require smaller turbochargers since less air is needed for stoichiometric combustion compared to the leaner burn in diesel engines. For example, a diesel engine ...

With that in mind, the typical life expectancy of any of the Ford Power Stroke diesel engines can be 200,000 to 500,000 miles, an some 7.3-liter Power Strokes have seen million-mile birthdays.

The Australian team is in a global race to develop hybrid diesel-hydrogen engines. Engineers in other countries are working on their concepts and designs but the Sydney team believes it has an edge.

The larger displacement diesel engines used by Mahindra’s top-selling models are better suited to meet the emission norms as per the carmaker.
