and eh..the injection system is a little different.
just got the urge...lol


port injection vs direct injection... look at the V6 in the camaro... its DI. just has a spark plug in addition to it.

gasoline technology has outpaced gasoline technology in a lot of areas and gasoline engines are just now starting the conversion over to diesel tech.

glow plugs serve the purpose of preheating the combustion chamber to help ignite the fuel/air mixture.

and diesel injectors are much more robust due to the fact that they spray the fuel in the combustion chamber and have to deal with the extreme heat and pressure of combustion as well as the much higher fuel rail pressure.

live topic lets you know if a new post has been added (and adds it in while you are viewing the thread) so you dont have to refresh to see all the newest posts.
