This is a real old video I had that I forgot to upload way back when, it was at my dad’s dealership Car Connections, Inc. I will also have a short test drivevideo on it. In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle. ]]> http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/12/11/2007-honda-civic-hybrid-start-up-engine-and-in-depth-tour.html/feed 0 http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/12/06/fuel-efficient-car-technology.html http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/12/06/fuel-efficient-car-technology.html#comments Tue, 06 Dec 2011 18:05:59 +0000 Fuel Efficient Motoring http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/?page_id=313

This is the third volume in Mark Poulton’s highly successful series of books on road transport technology developments. At the heart of the book is Poulton’s concern with fuel economy improvement in vehicle design. the book centers around this theme, and with a focused but comprehensive approach, Poulton outlines the possible technological means by which these improvements can be made. This account provides the reader with invaluable information as to the current research and state of development of vehicle manufacturing. In addition to the author’s wealth of knowledge on vehicle design, the information in the book is readily accessible: each self-contained chapter enables the reader to be informed on a particular topic, without having to explore the index for further reference.

The book will be of great interest to mechanical and transportation engineers, and to those with a technical interest or association with the subject.

Gas and oil engines, and Gas-producers; a treatise on the modern development of the internal combustion motor and efficient methods of fuel economy and power production ]]> http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/10/13/gas-and-oil-engines-and-gas-producers-a-treatise-on-the-modern-development-of-the-internal-combustion-motor-and-efficient-methods-of-fuel-economy-and-power-production.html/feed 0 http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/09/13/all-about-diesel-fuel-pump.html http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/2011/09/13/all-about-diesel-fuel-pump.html#comments Tue, 13 Sep 2011 11:10:59 +0000 Fuel Efficient Motoring http://www.fuelefficientmotoring.com/?page_id=309

The diesel engine or diesel fuel pump, referring to the name you might be thinking, is something similar to the fuel engine. But there is only one similarity that both are the internal combustion part of a motor while the mechanism of ignition is different. And what is that? The diesel engine compresses the fuel in the burning chamber whereas the fuel engine sparks to ignite the fuel. Now, there is another variation in fuel, the gas and diesel. So, the injection process differs accordingly. The two respective injection pumps are Carburetor and Port Injector. According to the experts, the energy density of fuel in diesel injector is considerably higher that results inevitably in better energy output. Now let’s find how diesel injection pump works.

Here you must know about a process fuel optimization, a specialized diesel injection system where the external Port Injectors infuse fuel prior to intake stroke. The diesel fuel ignites as the super compressed and heated air comes in contact with the cylinder. There are two types of fuel ignition in diesel fuel pump, direct injection and indirect injection. The first type is very noisy form of diesel injection pump. Indirect injection, on the other hand it is comparatively soother and more structured. Here the fuel is first delivered to the pre-chamber for initial combustion and then to the main chamber for final combustion.

Diesel fuel pump and diesel injection process, as a whole, is a complicated system. Depending upon the motor architecture and requirements of the vehicle, the fuel pump can be located if different places. These are carefully designed to withstand the inner pressure and deliver the fuel efficiently and relentlessly. However, there still is a kind of drawback in these diesel fuel injectors. Under high compression pressure the fuel and air mixture ignites and starts knocking with loud noise, which actually causes critical engine damage.

Well, you don’t need to worry much for there is solution for every problem. There is an engine component called Glow Plug, which works to keep the compression pressure moderated and prevents fuel from being ignited. Diesel injection pump is therefore serving its consumers with utmost compatibility in all climatic condition. To understand your diesel engine better it is essential to know about its various components. Following are the few of most essential parts of diesel engines.

First we should talk about the most important component of an engine, the diesel injection pump. You can say it is the heart of a diesel engine. As the name suggest this component work to pump the fuel to the injectors. This process ensures the relentless delivery of fuel for further injection process. The common components of this part include diesel injection pump solenoid, diesel injection pump gasket, diesel injection pump seal etc.

Now let’s talk about the diesel injectors. According to the motor engineers it is the main part of whole diesel fuel architecture and mechanism. You need to have a fair knowledge about this component to hold the health of your motor vehicle. These injectors are actually made to inject fuel. Its important components broadly include diesel fuel thermostat, diesel fuel line bracket, diesel cigar hose and diesel injector heat shield etc. Diesel vacuum pumps are another essential part you need to concern over. It pulls out the fuel whenever needed. The essential parts are vacuum control valve, diesel vacuum pump repair kit, diesel vacuum pump gasket etc. Technology changes in lightening speed and so the quality and mechanism of diesel fuel injection. You must stay aware of the upcoming products and technologies to spend for the best product for your purpose.
