Section 1 Chapter 1 Liquid Cooled Spark Ignited Engines By Don Gilliland MCC Diesel Technology
Advantages over Diesel • Positive Ignition (More Precise Control) • Lower Compression (Increased Output) • Lower Firing Pressures (Less Strain) • Light Weight (Less Expensive Parts) • Less Momentum (Higher Speed) • Less Vibration (Less Expense to Install) • Less Noise (More Efficient Energy) • Easy Cold Start (+ Ign & Low Compression) • Multi Fueled (Gasoline, Natural Gas, LPG, BioGases)
Disadvantages From Diesel • Less Efficient (Power and Energy) • Less Durability (Gasoline Wash Less Lube) • Electric System Ignition (1 More System) • Light Weight Parts (Less Torque/Lug) • Less Momentum (Lower Continuous Power) • 2 Cycle Emissions (Diesel Cleaner – Lube) • Boost Restrictions (Fueled Intake/Explode) • Less Rebuildable (Design Restrictions)
Air Cooled Spark Ignited Engines Chapter 2 By Don Gilliland MCC Diesel Technology
Disadvantages From Diesel • Power efficiency • Last longer Durability • Simpler Ignition • 2 cycle Cleaner • Less Emissions • Continuous loads • Boost Restrictions • Rebuildable
