It isn't important that you know what this part does as long as you know you have to adjust it when you start the car and again as you run the car. The spark advance is a lever just under the left side of the steering wheel. There is a metal ring that curves down under the steering wheel to the center bottom. The ring has notches in it to help you keep the lever in the correct position. To start the car this lever is ALWAYS pushed up to the 9:00 position as far away from you as possible. As soon as the car starts you pull this lever down (towards you) about ⅓ of the way and as the engine runs faster, you keep pulling it down towards the 6:00 position. It doesn't need to be adjusted constantly but before you turn the engine off ALWAYS push the lever full up and when you start the car ALWAYS have the lever full up.

Well in a Model T you operate the throttle by hand. It is the lever on the right side under the steering wheel. When you want the engine to run slow or idle, you push the throttle away from you. Most engines will stall if you put the throttle full up so you will want the throttle lever to be toward you 4 or 6 notches when you start the car or are sitting still and not driving the car. To drive faster, pull the throttle lever toward you and to slow down, push the lever forward or away from you. It is said that when a mule is running as hard and fast as it can go, it's ears are folded back on it's head. When a Model T is running as fast as it can, both levers (advance and gas) are pulled back as far as they will go much like the position of the mules
...rs and glow plugs from the valve cover gasket. Once that is done unplug the gasket from the wiring harness and remove it from the head. There is three bolts on each injector one which is holding the oil splash shield to the injector and two holding the injector to the head. To remove the injector you only have to remove the bottom bolt from the injector. then you get a pry bar and gently pry on the injector until it pops out. Install a new injector you put it in the injector cup and lightly smack it with a rubber mallet until it seats in the head.
3.Combustion: As the piston reaches the top of its stroke or TDC, the spark plug fires, igniting the mixture. Due to the high compression of this mixture it is very volatile and it explodes when the spark is introduced. This pushes the piston downward and produces power.
When the key is in the "on" position the Electronic Control Module (ECM), the main computer that controls all sensors and engine functions, powers up and readies the engine for start-up. When the starter is engaged and the coolant temperature is less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, determined by the Coolant Temperature Sensor (CTS), the Cold Start Injector provides a spray of fuel to each cylinder via an air distribution system built into the intake manifold. If the engine temperature is greater than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the Cold Start Injector is disabled by the cold start switch. Upon startup the ECM utilizes information in the Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EPROM) to establish the initial pulse rate for the fuel injectors. The ECM pulses, or opens and closes, the remaining 8 fuel injectors in sequence and the engine starts. During this, the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve is com...
Driving. While I haven’t had the greatest experiences with driving related problems; I’ve run into some pretty funny ones. When I was about four years old my family was over at my grandpa’s putting in a well for him. I of course was sitting in the unattended van on the top of the hill in the back seat. While many people would think that it was completely safe and there’s nothing to worry about they are wrong. You see I was a clever little toddler and could at that time unbuckle herself and climb over the center console right into the front seat. Also being the genius child that I was I managed to switch the car from park to neutral and begin to roll down the hill. Now I don 't remember my mom and the other adults running towards the van to

Driving defensively is key to avoiding accidents. This refers to anticipating hazards and being prepared for them, or driving and expecting the worst. When I was practicing my driving, my dad told me, “When you feel like another driver is going to make a bad move, assume that they will.” Just because it’s wrong for that other driver to cut you off doesn’t mean they won’t do it, so always plan for the worst of things. The main takeaways of defensive driving are:

A Car is a product that people use for transportation from place to another. First, people innovated a steam powered car. By the time, people started to use different fuels to power the cars. For example, people used hydrogen, petrol, and gasoline to power their cars. Nowadays, most people use cars that are powered by petrol or gasoline, even though it affects the environment and create pollution. Moreover, people have invented electric vehicles, which are powered by electricity. This means that people need to recharge the car between time to time using electricity. As a result, some people think that electric cars might not cause any harm to the environment; on the other hand, some might think that it might cause some environmental harm, but
During the last two hundred years humans have made leaps and bounds in the technology field. According to the uspto.gov website, nearly 1.1 million U.S. utility patents have been granted between 2000 and 2012 alone and more than 2.2 million worldwide. The number of utility patent applications is growing more and more every year. With so many technologies being invented there are bound to be some that have international recognition and influence. While not a new technology, the automobile has had a tremendous impact on society. The automobile industry is responsible for increasing efficiency in manufacturing processes, allowing family and friends to travel the world, employing over 700,000 workers in 2011 (selectusa.commerce.gov), and of course creating feuds between Chevy, Ford and Dodge enthusiasts. Without the invention of the modern automobile, the world would be quite different from what it is today.

I lived with my father for my entire life, but due to his work I did not spend much time with him. My father worked at a different city; and thus he comes home only a few times a month. My father is a mechanic. He works at a company that is distant from our home. This was due to the company being the only one and the first where cars were being assembled in Ethiopia. Sometimes on the weekends I used to go to his work place. He would give me a trip of the place; the station was filled with vehicles, trucks, and motorcycles. It was separated by sections. In each section there were only one type of vehicle and the assembly process was shown step by step. From a fuse to large engine of the car, components were getting attached.
