Oiling Considerations In Modern Engine Technology

Technology is moving fast, and with each passing day, there is something new happening. If you are still living in the past, then you can be left behind as things are taking a new leaf in the technological world. Technology is making life easy for everyone, and as such, it is allowing for more power, efficiency, and performance, most especially when it has to do with machine work and custom tuning. It is no surprise that manufacturers are now responding to the demands of customers and regulators to provide clean and dependable solutions while offering aftermarket support. Maintaining the balance between original equipment manufacturer (OEM) objectives and the aftermarket is a great way to enhance dependability and efficiency.

Oiling Requirements For Modern Direct Injection Engines

There are specific fuel economy standards that companies must adhere to, and in meeting with those students, Ford launched an EcoBoost engine that comes with a Direct Injection Fuel System. Also, employing the Direct Injection Engine is the Gen III Coyote 5.0L V8. So, what is Direct Injection?

In layman terms, Direct Injection just means that during the intake stroke, a fresh dose of air is taken into the cylinder in the absence of its normal dose of fuel from a port injector. Rather, both air and fuel are combined within the cylinder in an abbreviated injection, mix, and vaporization event. As observed in a dual injection system, the ECU toggles between injection systems to boost efficiency, while ensuring driver demanded performance.

Because of the system withdrawal, the Direct Injection process, vaporizing fuel within the combustion chamber, can be challenging, most especially when the RPM is low and load is high.

For combustion to occur, fuel needs to atomize and vaporize. During the intake strokes, the Direct Injection (DI) engines must inject, mix, and vaporize fuel in the cylinder. On the other hand, a port-injected or carbureted engine must first vaporize fuel while droplets make their way down the intake runners. However, the abbreviated cycle of the Direct Injection Engines usually leads to unburnt fuel blowing by pistons and trickling down into the crankcase. However, there is a solution to the shortcomings of the Direct engine cycle. The blow-by issue can be addressed by utilizing a blended style oil or mineral oil. The use of either product ensures improved ring seal in comparison to like viscosity in a genuinely high end synthetic. In situations when the blow-by occurs and makes its way past piston rings, the fuel has two options; vaporize and go back to the combustion chamber using the positive crank ventilation system, or being emulsified in the engine oil.

How the CVI Works?

Previously, the CVI units were referred to as the Inertia TX units. The name was later changed to the CVI units, also known as the Constant Velocity Units. The switch to CVI units from Intertia TX doesn’t in any way have any impact on your electrical control unit or electrical system.

Naturally, conventional ignition systems consist of an electronic- trigger module or a large inductor (coil). The coil undergoes a charge which triggers or induces a high voltage of the spark plugs. All CVI models play a vital role in the induction of higher voltage, thus leading to a more efficient burning process for the fuel, and this produces more torque and horsepower.

The way the CVI is designed, it goes hand in hand with the coil. The CVI circuitry ensures the coil never reduces its energy during ignition, and it is in the best shape to fire at high RPM. The CVI produces hotter and lengthier sparks, and thus lead to improved horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency. The reason for this is that hotter and longer spark burns fuel more appropriately and completely.

The Working Principle of Constant Velocity Ignitor

A constant velocity ignitor works to increase a continuous voltage and current to across the ignition coil of the engines while under the intense load and weight of driving. Several ignition systems consist of either an inductive coil or an electronic trigger module. The way it works is for the coil to get charged up first, and after that it is triggered to create a higher voltage. There are two CVI models; the standard CVI model, and the CVI-2. The performance of the CVI-2 model is more than that of the standard model. The reason for this is that the CVI-2 model carries a more significant energy discharge to the coils, thus leading to the generation of more Torque and Horsepower.

The CVI is efficient in its fuel usage and consumption. The way the CVI is designed allows it to optimize the rise and saturation time of the inductive coil while enhancing the storage energy to create the ideal spark. All of these ensure the engines have:

  • Enhanced Torque and increased horsepower
  • Significant increase in speed
  • Less carbon emission
  • Less pollution
  • Better use of fuel
  • Better fuel usage
  • Quick acceleration
  • A more natural way to start the engine

The CVI first came into existence in the 90s, and since its development, it has been used on racing cars as a tool to boost RPM speed. However, the advancement of technology means that it can now be used in everyday gasoline engines. Using the standard model, CVI or CVI-2 will not have any impact on your engine control unit or your electrical system.
