  2. Ford Modular engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Modular_engine

    The firing order has been changed from that shared by all previous Modular V8s (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8) to that of the Ford Flathead V8 (1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2). [17] Compression ratio is 11.0:1, and despite having port fuel injection (as opposed to direct injection ) the engine can still be run on 87 octane gasoline.

  3. Manifold vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_vacuum

    Manifold vacuum, or engine vacuum in a petrol engine is the difference in air pressure between the engine's intake manifold and Earth's atmosphere. Manifold vacuum is an effect of a piston's movement on the induction stroke and the airflow through a throttle in the intervening carburetor or throttle body leading to the intake manifold. It is a ...

  4. Variable-length intake manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Variable-length_intake_manifold

    Ford — Dual-Stage Intake (DSI), on their Duratec 2.5 and 3.0-litre V6s, and it was also found on the Yamaha V6 in the Taurus SHO. The Ford Modular V8 engines and the V6 Cologne use either the Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) for four-valve engines, or the Charge Motion Control Valve (CMCV) for three-valve engines.

  5. Secondary air injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_air_injection

    The pump's air intake is filtered by a rotating screen or the vehicle air filter to exclude dirt particles large enough to damage the system. Air is delivered under light pressure to the injection point(s). A check valve prevents exhaust forcing its way back through the air injection system, which would damage the pump and other components.

  6. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Carburetors used as intake runners A cutaway view of the intake of the original Fordson tractor (including the intake manifold, vaporizer, carburetor, and fuel lines). An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1]

  7. Manifold (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_(fluid_mechanics)

    Hydraulic manifold A component used to regulate fluid flow in a hydraulic system, thus controlling the transfer of power between actuators and pumps Inlet manifold (or "intake manifold") An engine part that supplies the air or fuel/air mixture to the cylinders Scuba manifold In a scuba set, connects two or more diving cylinders Vacuum gas manifold

  8. Pontiac V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac_V8_engine

    The engine came with 543797 (4-barrel) and 9770716 heads for the tri-power and special exhaust manifolds and a 7H cam with 292deg. intake duration and later 1964 L with 288deg intake essentially the same as the 068 cam. #9770716 aka "716" heads featured a 170cc intake port volume, and were considered a milder "street" version of the vaunted ...

  9. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    Only the amount of injected fuel has to be determined, which can be done very easily with a rather simple fuel distributor that is controlled by an intake manifold vacuum-driven airflow sensor. The fuel distributor does not have to create any injection pressure, because the fuel pump already provides pressure sufficient for injection (up to 500 ...
