Besides preventing the build-up of nasty engine sludge and premature wear, protection against cold starts is one of the main reasons why you should never skip an oil change in your gasoline or diesel ...

Turbocharged engines are far more sensitive to cold-start behavior than older naturally aspirated designs, and mechanics are increasingly seeing premature wear linked to drivers immediately driving ...

Cold weather exposes every weakness in an engine, but one habit stands out as the quickest way to finish it off. Mechanics increasingly warn that the real damage is done in the first minutes after a ...

Aircraft engines are uniquely susceptible to cold due to their mixed aluminum and steel construction; differential thermal contraction drastically reduces critical clearances, leading to ...

Cold weather adversely affects diesel engines more than gas engines, but that’s only partly due to the engine itself. Diesel engines are inherently harder to crank over to start than gas engines, and ...

The Rapid Catalyst Heating system quickly elevates catalyst temperatures, reducing harmful emissions during the critical cold start phase. The system is designed for easy integration into light- and ...
