Shortly afterward, a crank case explosion caused by a main engine bearing overheating occurred, causing serious injury to the engineer ( who required months of recuperation ).

The needle valve and carburettor are behind the cylinder where they are protected, and the crank case, cylinder and fuel tank are all machined from forgings, rather than weaker castings.

There are some petroleum derivatives that are toxic to plants, like crank case oil, used before herbicides to kill weeds ( and everything else ) in driveways or along roads.

Coolant exits the DB 601 at two points located at the front of the engine and at the base of each cylinder block casting immediately adjacent to the crank case.

The crank case ventilation of modern road-use diesel engines is diverted into the intake manifold, because ventilating the crank case into outside air is inadvisable due to lubricant mist it contains.

It had a rotary, air-cooled, 3-cylinder engine, mounted vertically in the rear and revolving around a fixed crankshaft . Turning with the crank case was a stub shaft . It further had a 3-speed manual transmission with no reverse.

A Jeep in the opposite lane avoided the flying debris, but a new Pathfinder caught the metal ammo box square on the front bumper and propelled the olive drab missile into my car where it tore the oil pump out of the crank case, among other things.
19.
As the designers wanted to reduce the rolling resistance, they did their best to produce an engine as light as possible an air-cooled V8 with a crank case made from gearbox was made from elektron as well and it was positioned in front of the rear axle and engine.
20.
At first glance the costs do not seem to be wildly unreasonable; a loose connection should take less work and fewer parts than having to open up the crank case to get at the internals, and / or replace the entire sensor .-- ( talk ) 18 : 33, 23 July 2009 ( UTC)
