1. A wheelbarrow mounted version can be switched between different small engines in a farm or industrial plant. 2. This powered a number of small engines with gleaming copper coils. 3. THEIR small engines sound like a squadron of amplified hornets and the planes are built from nothing more substantial than treated paper stretched over balsa wood. 4. Because they often employ two-stroke engines that burn a noxious mixture of gasoline and oil, the small engines cause about a tenth of all airborne pollution. 5.

But in this high-tech age, turning a small car with a small engine into a whistling highway jet is just a computer chip away. 7. But while CVTs have been mainly used in small cars with small engines, that seems likely to change. 8. Hydrocarbon emissions from small engines combine in hot weather with other chemical compounds in the atmosphere to form ground-level ozone, also known as smog. 9. In a hybrid, a small engine can run in a narrow range of RPMs, where it is designed to be clean and efficient. 10. Old fuel gets thick and can harm small engines. |
