Fire incidents linked to work at height often start with small ignition sources that go unnoticed. Elevated platforms, mobile ...

Researchers working on China's fully superconducting Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) have experimentally ...

Ignition coils last far longer than spark plugs and only need replacement when symptoms appear. Here’s how to tell if coils ...

An ignition coil is a vital component of a vehicle's ignition system. It is responsible for converting the low voltage from the battery into the high voltage needed to produce sparks at the spark ...

Some four-cylinder engines use eight spark plugs for better fuel economy, efficiency, and emissions, though they can be ...

A battery in a traditional car cannot directly create engine spark. It’s only rated at 12 volts, after all, so it needs a little help boosting the signal to the spark plugs. To make that happen, a car ...

Ignition timing is easily the single most important tuning adjustment on an internal combustion engine and yet the concept of ignition curves continues to be elusive for many enthusiasts. Yet all it ...

Like much in life, the difference between detonation and pre-ignition, and their effects, comes down to timing. Both refer to a situation when an engine's fuel/air mixture combusts at the wrong time, ...

If you’re driving a car that uses a physical key and it seems to be stuck in the ignition, the first thing to do is make sure your car’s in park—it won’t come out if you’re still in drive. If that’s ...

Internal combustion engines are likely to remain in widespread use for some time yet, but it's possible that we may be bidding adieu to that most iconic of engine parts, the spark plug. Researchers ...

American scientists have announced what they have called a major breakthrough in a long-elusive goal of creating energy from nuclear fusion. The U.S. Department of Energy said on Dec. 13, 2022, that ...
