Will There Be Any Impact After Replacing the Engine Connecting Rod?
1 Answers
Replacing the engine connecting rod generally has little impact, but improper handling afterward may cause engine vibration. Impact of Replacing the Engine Connecting Rod: No impact. The motion pair between the connecting rod and the crankshaft is a friction pair. The connecting rod and the crankshaft are matched with bearing shells, lubricated by engine oil in between, with a fit clearance of only 0.03-0.05mm. Most crankshafts are made of ductile iron, with different grades resulting in varying quenching hardness, mostly between HB130-240. Characteristics of Automotive Engines: Common gasoline and diesel engines are both reciprocating piston-type internal combustion engines, capable of converting the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston movement and outputting power externally. Gasoline engines have high rotational speeds, are lightweight, produce less noise, are easy to start, and have low manufacturing costs. Diesel engines have a high compression ratio, excellent thermal efficiency, and better economic and emission performance than gasoline engines.
