The distinguishing B
characteristics of the
gasoline engine
are _______________ _.
a. vaporized gasoline mixed
with air is
drawn into the cylinder
during the intake stroke
b. ignition is achieved by
means of a spark plug
c. governing takes place by
throttling the air-fuel
mixture
d. the fuel is injected at high
pressure
e. four stroke cycle
The major differences of the A
diesel engine compared to
the gasoline engine are:
1) The charge drawn into the
cylinder is air only
2) The fuel is injected at
high pressure at the
beginning of the
compression stroke
3) Ignition is due to the high
temperature resulting from
the compression of the air
4) The fuel is injected at
high pressure at the end
of the compression
stroke
5) The fuel is injected
into the engine cylinder
at a high temperature
