When the incident commander (IC) calls for the sprinklers to be shut down, a well-intentioned driver-engineer hears the chief’s radio transmission and, seeing a post-indicator valve (PIV) on the sidewalk in front of the building, reports to the IC that he has found the valve to shut down the sprinkler system. It occurs to no one that closing this PIV shuts off the city’s water supply to the building’s diesel fire pump (photo 2). This cuts off the water to cool the pump and the diesel engine driving it, causing them to overheat and self-destruct.
The difficulty was (and is) achieving effective seals. That’s why poppet valves are still with us and rotary sleeves are not.

@Mark: You are correct, however when a fuel injector fails it doesn’t cause immediate, expensive physical damage to an engine. I would love to see a camless engine myself but no system is flawless. If I rev my truck’s custom built 350ci engine too high it floats the valves, and it was designed for towing/hauling, i.e. demanding loads. Every system has its limits.

Instead, after two days and many miles on some of my favorite SoCal roads, Iâm left with a lingering resentment that we couldâve been riding this machine for months. We couldâve logged thousands of miles, had a shootout with its direct competitors, and just maybe, had some shuffling of the 2018 MOBOs. The KTM 790 Duke is so good that it doesnât make me grateful to finally ride it. It frustrates me that we had to wait so long.Â
Milwaukee’s right-angle attachment handles roughly twice as much torque as its competitors. This attachment is extremely durable, and is a favorite in the contracting world.

These issues are largely unavoidable. An estimated 70% of seniors will need long-term care in their lifetime, and while there are ways to save money on Medicare premiums and out-of-pocket healthcare expenses, many seniors enter retirement not understanding what services Medicare will cover and what the program costs. The good news, however, is that working Americans can prepare for the inevitability that is healthcare in retirement so that it’s less of an onus — and source of financial stress — in the future.
The Fiat Multiaire system – if this is what you are getting at in a round about way – is a consumers nightmare. The system consumes oil and is very unpredictable under certain stress conditions. It’s pure engineering garbage to the customer, and sounds good on paper to the environmentalists. It should be eliminated and outlawed. Or just keep it in Italy.
An avid endurance athlete, Kenny has competed in triathlons (he’s an Ironman) and various other fitness activities. Still, his passions lie with his faith, family, friends, and his love for well-designed power tools. With a background in science, you’ll often find Kenny chatting up engineers at media events to get caught up on the latest tool technology.
Kai-san makes it pretty clear that Toyota wants us to think less about the numbers and more about how its new hero car feels. But to review, this is what we know: Toyota has revived the Supra name for a new sports car in a collaboration with BMW. BMW gets the roadster Z4, which we’ve had a similar exposure to, while Toyota gets the coupe. As we mentioned, BMW supplies the engine, and it’s paired with ZF’s ubiquitous eight-speed automatic. Both cars will be manufactured by Magna Steyr in Austria. The Supra will hit dealerships midway through 2019 as a 2020 model and probably will ring in at about $50,000. Most, if not all, of the camouflaged switchgear we saw in the cabin looked BMW-like. If earlier reports are to be believed, the engine will flaunt 335 horsepower, and an inline-four also is in the works but won’t be offered at the start.
