Honda offers an impressive array of powerplants in its American models. Here's what you need to know about all of them.

Somewhere there's a perfect balance between peak horsepower, low-speed response, reduced emissions, and something you can afford. Variable valve timing and lift have done their part in getting us all ...

Engineers at Waterloo University are improving on the traditional engine by introducing variable hydraulic valves in place of cam-based and camless systems. While the engineering community continues ...

The jargon goes well beyond just names. Car specs are full of abbreviations that may or may not have any meaning at first glance. And sometimes we get so used to seeing those abbreviations that we may ...

The combination of physical models, including a combustion model of an advanced engine control system, was proposed to obtain sophisticated air/fuel ratio and residual gas fraction control in lean ...

The problem is as old as the internal combustion engine itself: Static valve timing is always a compromise. Figures that produce good power at lower engine speeds aren't ideal for higher-rpm operation ...

Automatic variation of internal combustion engine valve timing in response to load and speed is an effective technique for reducing emission of oxides of nitrogen and unburned hydrocarbons. The ...

It seems like every major automaker these days is using tricks like variable-valve timing – often in conjunction with forced induction – to eke better efficiency out of their engines while still ...

'The new darling of the engine-swap set is the GM Gen III family of small-blocks that includes everything from the lowly 5.3L truck engine to the LQ9 6.0L all the way up to the swarthy Corvette LS7 ...

August 5, 2005 Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) has developed two Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) aluminium cylinder block engines to power two new models slated for ...

One of the interesting things about critical needs is that we tend to take them for granted once achieved. Food, clothing, and shelter have been joined by power and connectivity as survival demands in ...
