Know More About Automotive Engines

Automotive engine is the core of automobile that drives the vehicle successfully. Numerous changes and upgrades in designs and types of engines made them very powerful and useful. The basic auto motors parts are cylinders and pistons. Various arrangements of cylinders within engine define the type of engines like inline engines or flat engines, V-engines. Besides cylinders and pistons, engines contain different parts like -

• Piston rings – These rings act as a sliding seal between outer edge of piston and inner edge of cylinder.
• Spark plug – This plug supplies spark for fuel combustion.
• Valves – there are intake and exhaust valves letting air and fuel mixture in and out at proper time.
• Crankshaft – It makes pistons up and down motion to circular motion.

Car Starting Problems - Why Wont My Car Start?

 Automotive Articles  >  Engine & Mechanics  >  Car Starting Problems

Have you ever had your car just "die" on you, you try to start it and it just   will not start.  You end up calling a tow truck and paying those big tow bills, then to make matters worse the technician at the shop tells you that it will cost hundreds of dollars to make it run again,is that true? Maybe maybe not.

I own and work as a diagnostics Tech here at Ace Automotive in Lakewood Wa and I can tell you from experience if some people knew just a little more about their cars workings they could save a whole lotta money.  Say for instance you are driving at night wipers and heater ,lights and radio on you notice that the headlights keep getting dimmer and dimmer soon the vehicle "dies" and now won't start the most likely cause is the alternator has failed, not the battery because if the battery failed the alternator would still keep power to the vehicle until you turned it off then it would not restart.

You are driving for a while and the car just "shuts off" all the instrument lights come on but when you try to start it it just turns over but will not start. First it depends what kind of car this happend to if it was an import like say Honda, acura, toyota, subaru, nissan, mitubishi, the engine timing belt may have broken (if it's been more that 60,000 miles since you changed it last time) you should be able to tell if when you try to start the engine it sounds different like its just "freewheeling" faster than normal, this is bad cause most of the import cars mentioned will do expensive damage to the engine when the timing belt breaks.

If your vehicle is a domestic one chevy ford ect, be patient wait a little bit maybe 30-45 min and try to start it if it starts hurray! But it will "die" again once it's hot enough again, be sure to tell your local tech this valuable information and ask for all parts they replace to repair your vehicle to let them know you know something about the car too.

New Range Rover Sport Available Soon From Premiere Velocity

The new Range Rover Sport had its official unveiling by Land Rover in grand style at the prestigious New York Motor Show recently.

Automotive News:- Published On: 2013-04-12

By Premiere Velocity Limited

The new Range Rover Sport had its official unveiling by Land Rover in grand style at the prestigious New York Motor Show recently. James Bond actor Daniel Craig added the touch of star quality to the event as he drove the new Sport the last bit of the way to the launch. The new Range Rover model is due to hit the market in September and Premiere Velocity is constantly updating its range of luxury, prestigious and supercar hire vehicles, including a choice of Sports.

The upcoming version of the Range Rover Sport was befitting of the special occasion as onlookers were left looking with awe and admiration at a scene that would not have been out of place in a Hollywood epic. The launch was said to have cost as much as £3 million and the audience was filled with many high-profile individuals all eager to get an exclusive glimpse of what Land Rover had to offer. The frequent flashes of the photographers' cameras ensured that the film premiere theme was maintained and motor industry experts cannot have failed to have been impressed by the Sport's substantial yet svelte design.

Available for the very first time as a seven-seater, this edition of the Sport is due to go on sale at around £55,000 this September. There is undoubtedly much prestige connected to such a model and the majority of its parts are unique, giving drivers the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a highly impressive and exclusive vehicle.

It often takes vast sums of money to get the chance to drive a Range Rover Sport or indeed any other elite motor vehicle but it is not always necessary to own one outright. Premiere Velocity offer a magnificent selection of super cars to hire including Bugattis, Ferraris and Porsches, to name but three of the very top brands' vehicles on their books. By adopting a policy of limiting their stock to cars that are no older than two years and have a mileage of less than 20,000, Premiere Velocity is always first with the best vehicles for customers to hire.
