  2. Head gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

    A leak in the head gasket - often called a "blown head gasket" - can result in a leak of coolant, the combustion gasses, or both. Blue smoke from the exhaust suggests that excess oil is entering the combustion chambers (although there are other possible causes than a head gasket leak). White smoke from the exhaust suggests that coolant is ...

  3. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter

    At stall, the torque converter can produce maximum torque multiplication if sufficient input power is applied (the resulting multiplication is called the stall ratio). The stall phase actually lasts for a brief period when the load (e.g., vehicle) initially starts to move, as there will be a very large difference between pump and turbine speed.

  4. Torque tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_tube

    A torque tube system is a power transmission and braking technology that involves a stationary housing around the drive shaft, often used in automobiles with a front engine and rear drive. The torque tube consists of a large diameter stationary housing between the transmission and rear end that fully encloses a rotating tubular steel or small ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_coupling_unit

    It linked the front and rear differentials for quiet and smooth transfer of power to the axle with the greatest traction, on wet or dry pavement. [ 4 ] Viscous couplings are used as the center differential in cars such as the Toyota Celica GT-Four , and also as a limited slip differential (LSD) in rear axles.

  6. Gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

    A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. [1] It is a deformable material that is used to create a static seal and maintain that seal under various operating conditions in a mechanical assembly.

  7. Fluid coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_coupling

    Since the late 1940s, the hydrodynamic torque converter has replaced the fluid coupling in automotive applications. In automotive applications, the pump typically is connected to the flywheel of the engine —in fact, the coupling's enclosure may be part of the flywheel proper, and thus is turned by the engine's crankshaft .

  8. Catalytic converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_converter

    A three-way catalytic converter on a gasoline-powered 1996 Dodge Ram Simulation of flow inside a catalytic converter. A catalytic converter is an exhaust emission control device which converts toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction.

  9. Constant-velocity joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-velocity_joint

    A Rzeppa-type CV joint. A constant-velocity joint (also called a CV joint and homokinetic joint) is a mechanical coupling which allows the shafts to rotate freely (without an appreciable increase in friction or backlash) and compensates for the angle between the two shafts, within a certain range, to maintain the same velocity.
