The check engine light. also known as the CEL. serves to notify the driver of various issues with the engine or emissions system. While it may not explicitly indicate the need for an oil change. it may come on for related reasons such as low oil pressure or sensor defects. Neglecting regular oil changes can lead to build-up and contamination. affecting engine performance and potentially triggering the CEL. To avoid this. it is important to both address the specific problem indicated by the CEL and make regular oil changes a part of routine vehicle maintenance. Refer to your vehicle's manual for recommended maintenance schedules and seek professional help if the CEL comes on.
A car typically has an engine. However, the terms "engine" and "motor" are often used interchangeably in the context of vehicles. In electric cars, the term "motor" is used more frequently.
Nitrous oxide (N2O), also known as nitrous or NOS, is commonly used in automotive performance situations to provide a significant increase in engine power. Here's a simplified explanation of how it works:
1. Storage and Delivery: Nitrous oxide is stored in a high-pressure bottle and then delivered to the engine through a series of hoses and solenoids. This delivery can be manually operated by a button or switch, or may be automatically controlled by the vehicle's onboard computer.
2. Injection: The nitrous gas is injected into the engine's intake manifold. This is either done directly into the combustion chamber (direct port injection) or before the intake manifold in a single point or 'wet' delivery.
3. Power Boost: Once inside the combustion chamber, nitrous oxide provides two significant benefits. First, when nitrous oxide is heated (to approximately 570 degrees F), it breaks down and releases extra oxygen into the combustion chamber, which allows more fuel to be burned, thus resulting into more power. Second, the injection will also cause the intake charge to be cooler and denser, which simultaneously decreases the chance of pre-ignition and allows for more air/fuel mixture to be crammed into the combustion chamber.
4. Combustion: The additional fuel and oxygen creates a higher pressure in the cylinder, driving the piston down more forcefully and generating more power.
It's important to note that using nitrous oxide as a power adder in an engine without other modifications can lead to potential damage. Proper tuning and associated upgrades are needed to handle the increased cylinder temperatures and pressures associated with nitrous use.
