Pogo oscillation is a self-excited vibration in liquid-propellant rocket engines caused by combustion instability. [1] The unstable combustion results in variations of engine thrust, causing variations of acceleration on the vehicle's flexible structure, which in turn cause variations in propellant pressure and flow rate, closing the self-excitation cycle.
This is a list of Saturn vehicles, or vehicles produced by the Saturn Corporation, a former subsidiary of General Motors. The list spans vehicles from 1990 to 2009, [ 1 ] with concept vehicles as early as 1984.

In spark-ignition internal combustion engines, knocking (also knock, detonation, spark knock, pinging or pinking) occurs when combustion of some of the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder does not result from propagation of the flame front ignited by the spark plug, but when one or more pockets of air/fuel mixture explode outside the envelope of the normal combustion front.
The Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent use a stretched 112.5 in (2857 mm) wheelbase, but share much with the Saturn. The Suzuki Grand Vitara , although similar in size and appearance to a Saturn Vue, was developed by Suzuki using some Theta components, but should not be considered a Theta derivative.
