Is the Lifespan of a Three-Cylinder Engine the Same as a Four-Cylinder Engine?

[LeBriella]

In theory, the lifespan of a three-cylinder engine car is shorter than that of a four-cylinder engine car. Here are specific methods to determine how many cylinders a car's engine has: 1. Displacement: If the engine displacement is below 1L, it is generally a three-cylinder engine. If the engine displacement is 2.5L, it is typically a four-cylinder engine. If the engine displacement is around 3L, it is usually a six-cylinder engine. If the engine displacement is around 4L, it is generally an eight-cylinder engine. If the engine displacement is above 5L, it is typically a twelve-cylinder engine. 2. Spark Plugs: Generally, the number of spark plugs a car has indicates the number of cylinders in the engine. This method applies to gasoline engines. 3. Ignition Coils: Usually, the number of ignition coils corresponds to the number of cylinders in the engine. This method applies to diesel engines.
