One day we decided to go to the extreme rest in jeeps in the suburbs, where the off-road we got a lot of experience and loads. Led a group organizer and inspirer of many off-road activities that took over his shoulders than a dozen of these races. - When we communicate with you before you go, you were sure that only travel event no extreme does not herald. How it all began and how it happened that I had to break through severe off-road? - We have formed a group of enthusiasts with whom we occasionally drive out to the car prepared to interesting places on the route in advance, this is not the off-ROAD, which we used to see at the competitions, except when dirt around party sees nothing We're going families, with wives, children, friends. Choosing the road with beautiful scenery and a small obstacle course, where visitors can test their strength and the degree of cross-car. Basically this is the route "Moscow-St.Petersburg" and often go on a trip to a warm seasons. But this time, waiting for the summer did not. We decided to go to the city Ostashkov that in the Tver region. There are beautiful and aesthetically pleasing, is worth seeing, and recreation centers, where you can stop. Originally planned as a trip really excursion: Nilova Deserts, the source of the Volga River, Lake Seliger. Excursions were. On one of them could even wash his boots in the center of the Volga. But very soon the members got bored and started trying to jump off the pavement into the woods.

Riding in low visibility
The most dangerous and difficult it becomes Riding in low visibility, when rain, snow, fog and in the transition from dark to daylight and vice versa, the visibility deteriorated, and range view of the road is less than 300 meters. With the help of a driver receives two-thirds of the information needed to assess the situation on the road and the analysis of maneuver required the driver to ensure the safe movement. For this reason, the lack of visibility, bad review can cause a terrible accident. Consider all the more unfavorable in terms of visibility weather conditions for the drive. Riding in the rain is accompanied by a stream of dirty spray from the wheels colliding and passing cars on the windshield of your car. Even a fraction of a second is enough to take away your visibility on the road, so it is especially important that cleaners (they are "caretakers") were of good quality and have not been worn out by long service life. If the "caretakers" have ceased to adhere to the glass and leave behind a "blind" spots, such cleaners require replacement. However, when rain conditions worsen for the ride, not only outside but inside. As soon as it starts to rain and it drops fall on the windshield, the glass surface cools rapidly, and the inner side of the windows machines are formed condensate. In no case does not wipe the misted glass by hand or by the fact that his arm caught, otherwise the consequences will be in the light of headlights and streetlights examine their own tracks, and divorces, which also impairs visibility.
The operating principle of motor tachometer
Everyone who has a car knows that it mounted tachometer. However, not everyone understands the principle of the motor tachometer. Often you can hear from them questions on the similarity of "What does this arrow?". Therefore, in this article we will explain the basic principles of automotive tachometer. Tachometer in the car - a device that is used to determine the number of engine revolutions. Number of revolutions per unit time changes or relative speed. The main function performed by the tachometer, is that it helps you choose the right gear, but it can prolong engine life. In other words, when the tachometer needle reaches the red zone, you should immediately switch to a higher gear. Also, the tachometer is used for adjustment, for both idle and to control the motor in motion. Tachometer works by recording the number of pulses that are received from sensors, analyzing the pause between them, as well as the order they are received. Counting these pulses can be carried out in various ways: in the opposite direction, forward, and also in both. Indicators that were measured, as a rule, are converted to a certain value. They can be minutes, hours, seconds, etc. Tachometer is designed so that the collected values ??can be periodically reset. And the accuracy of the fairly conventional, the error is approximately equal to 400 rpm., Most accurate car tachometers can display data from up to ~ 100 rpm. Tachometers for motor vehicles are of two types: analog and digital. In the scheme of the digital tachometer may include the following elements: circuit reset the processor, LCD panel, the ADC 8 bits.
Control devices of the engine
At the present stage of scientific development, tuning engines reached the level of digital electronics. Fast and the Furious electronics motor racing begins with a different supervisors and ends with the introduction of chip-elekroniki. What are the control devices of the engine there, and what needs replacement and upgrading of the electronics that monitors and controls the motor? To increase the capacity of the engine must of all, control the composition of the fuel mixture. For such a purpose prescribed by the Controller of fuel injection, or as it is popularly called "ocean» Fuel Controller. Such controllers are manufactured by companies such as: Greddy, Apexi, HKS, Jet, Hypertec, Split Second. Pleasure to have his car so the controller will cost you from 200 to 1000 dollars. Depending on the model, this device is partially or completely wedged in the work of the fuel supply system, in some cases there is a replacement unit injection. Installed a new controller adjusts the flow of fuel mixture for different types: L, FI, LH-Jetronic, etc. In some cases, a modernization of the whole fuel supply system, thus replacing the pump nozzle to the more functional, in that case put a more powerful fuel pressure regulator, what further need to shell out between 1000 and 2000 dollars. Comptroller of fuel is helping to change the injection time in order to monitor the proper supply of fuel mixture. Sometimes you have to replace the ignition system, the more suitable for a tuning engine.
Additional devices for determining the oil pressure in the car
How do drivers follow the work of his car, its status and functions? With the help of technical inspection. And during the ride to follow these or other features of your car, you can use the dashboard. It displays the information that the driver is really needed. That and the speedometer, which shows how fast you are moving, and the sensor of gasoline, which informs you of the amount of petrol in the tank car and warns when its reserves are running out, and so on. If we consider how the instrument panel is arranged in a sports car, you'll see a myriad of different, sometimes not too clear of additional devices and sensors. Naturally, one can extract a lot of diverse information, but the real ace can easily traverse the standard instrument panel, while receiving all the same information. Let's first understand, why do we need additional instruments, and how they are classified. Firstly, all the additional devices in the car can be divided into processors and meters. The first type of devices is a complicated device, which not only measures the data, but also gives the driver the function of control over one or another process. Meters simply measure the significant parameters and processes are informed of the driver. The main reason for the installation of additional devices in the car driver is the desire to have more accurate information about speed, speed, pressure in one or another instrument and so on. And this is because the devices are already installed on the car, often distort the true values ??of parameters.
Child car safety seat
If you still carry their children in the backseat in a reclining position, or, God forbid, at the forefront in the hands of her grandmother, then we go to you. For those who until then had not understood what will be discussed, let us explain - the child car safety seat. Fashion, which is constantly growing, but know how to properly use, not all. When you select a seat for your child must take into account three basic parameters, they should combine together: the method of fixing, group and security, we have listed them from least important. Now we describe them in order. Safety The most important factor, without exaggeration, this is the preservation of health and life of the child and explained that the cost of car seat. On the chair should be the appropriate certificates: ECE R44/03 or modern ECE R44/04. This guarantees not only quality but also safety, since such certification of the European economy. Commission, means that the product has passed a series of successful tests and trials. If marked with ECE R44 is an estimate of car credible organization (for example, the German ADAC-a), it's just great! Your baby can be safely trusted with such a seat. Way of fixing Today, there are two main methods of fixing child car seat. ISOFIX system involves mounting the chair to the special bracket, hidden in the back of the sofa machine, more precisely, between the seat and backrest. The presence of ISOFIX system is usually celebrated as a supplementary item in the list of advantages in selling cars.

How to carry a child in the backseat
In the article "How to carry a child in the back seat," you will learn how to do it. Modern life and its intense pace requires us to mobility and to everywhere you can keep up, as a means of transportation, many are opting for my family and myself a car. In the first place, each motorist if the car is a saloon and the children must be the safety of their movement. The vehicle safety and comfort for the child provides child seat, safety belt, booster, but not the hands of parents. And this statement is perfectly acceptable, not by the fact that Russia signed the European Convention for the road, according to the rules, which must transport children up to 12 years in the back seat of a car in the child seat. Because the collision, and let the machine at slow speed, no hands will not keep the child. According to the statistics of road accidents, cause of injury to a child in the car, is that the child was improperly placed in the car. A child can not take care of their own security. All responsibility for the child's safety rests on the shoulders of adults, only because of their knowledge and experience, we can prevent the death of their children. Because the rules for the safe placement of the child in the car, not complex, and if they do, then we can avoid 80% of accidents serious consequences for the child. Baby car seat should be selected taking into account the child's age, his weight and appearance of the chair, the price of the chair, and the materials from which it is made.
Additional devices for tuning cars
In the toolbar of a modern car there are a number of devices that show minimal information on devices in the car, can carefully monitor the machine and the itinerary of your route. Recently, however, more and more machines installed additional devices for tuning auto, gauges and systems make a similar car dashboard on a garland. Often the people who install these devices can not even draw from them useful information. However, there are those drivers who use the devices for legitimate purposes, their data yield very large benefits. All attachments that are installed on the car part-time, can be divided into 2 groups: processors and meters. As the name implies, meters are designed in order to provide us with data on the characteristics and functioning of various units and units or a whole car. Processors are more complex devices. They do not just measure the condition of the machinery, but also affect them. Theme additional devices for tuning cars is quite common, it is important that established freelance devices can provide data on much more accurate than those that are installed on the car from the factory, they have a better response and feedback. This is the reason almost no major installation at tuning cars for new devices. Consider some of these devices: Meters. Installed meters are of different kinds. The most obvious and simple, and as a result - the most common are meters with an arrow. They represent a familiar face, with multiple or single arrow, the movement of which determines the degree of performance.
How to go on the road?
Many young drivers have difficulties when driving a car on dirt roads. In the suburbs, roads to remote villages, mostly absent, or quality of coverage is poor. Inexperienced driver needs to make a lot of strength to overcome such sites in bad weather. But the road by walking, and eventually come knowledge and experience. Overcome it, or any other obstacle is impossible for the following reasons: poor traction wheels and road pavement surface, low landing vehicle, the vulnerability of some sites from water, not enough traction drive wheels. Recommendations on how to properly ride on the road, can be found in this publication. Initially, the car design parameters laid down torque and gear ratio transmission. Including one or other transfer by changing the crankshaft speed, the driver changes the optimal values. When driving on sand spent a lot of power the engine. Car wheel burrow into the ground, not buksuya, and the car stalls, the resistance is very high. In this case, you need to save the car from the maximum load, slowly move back, and overcome the hill, slowly driving away. If the wheels are stuck in snow or mud, then a car with manual gearbox can be pulled with the buildup. On vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, this focus on the roads will not work because the brains of the unit for a long time thinking. If the wheels of the car turned, and you can not get out of a deep rut, you need to dig forwards in front of or behind the car a gentle departure. The lower transmission and higher frequency of the engine speed, the greater the resistance for the car on the affected stretch of road.
Why buy a car seat?
Every driver dreams of a comfortable and safe way, but our country is brutally deceived all such expectations. Therefore, take care of safety in the car need to advance, until there was some kind of accident that could cost the lives of you and your passengers. Particularly vulnerable to any trouble on the road are little kids, so it's worth taking care of such protection as a car seat. Car seat - a subject that provides your child is not only comfortable and safe ride, but also safeguard you against fines. The fact that the new changes in the rules of the road "is necessary to have special protective gear for your child, because the usual belts and airbags are not much help, how much harm the baby. Mother or relatives will not be able to keep a small child in an accident, even if he is not even a year old. Even at speeds of up to twenty miles per hour any clash threatens serious consequences of child up to spine fracture, or even death. Adult car seats are not designed for transportation of "young passengers." Car seats for children, at the same time, are selected specifically for body composition and growth of your child, so you will not be worrying about a comfortable ride for your child. Additional conditions of comfort are regulating the size of armchairs (some special models for different age groups), retractable footrest and headrest. Believe me, even you will not be so good to sit at home on a cozy sofa as a child in a child car seat. To protect the child's eyes from the sun can buy special blinds and mosquito save his mosquito net.

How to make a traction device for a car
Spring, winter and fall - hard times for driving on the ground and snow-covered roads. Even the small rise at times an insurmountable obstacle, especially if the tire tread a bit bald. Wheel spin, the car enters. And the studded tires are not always helps. However, there are adaptations that increase the permeability. How to make a traction device for a car, tell that story. A car with a bicycle chain. As a traction device for car use can be made from old bicycle chains and bracelets. To fix them on the drive wheels (three on each wheel), it is necessary to weld the rim of the wheel three bosses. Each of these garter crank tip rope grip clinging to the flare of the rim and then pull the strap, tightening the nut wrench. This set of six pieces weighs very little - only 980 chains from the hoses. How to make useful while riding off-road traction device for cars? You can use the rubber-canvas hose with a diameter of 8-14 mm, and a soft safety wire (cable), diameter 1,5 mm. They will need two to four on each driving wheel of the car. Installing lugs on the wheel, insert the wire (cable) through the "window" in the disk (if not available, then the need to drill holes), and fasten its ends by any reliable way. The device against slipping the car. Be a common situation: one of the leading wheels of the machine falls on the ice, snow or prikatanny the hole filled with liquid mud, and the car does not move from their seats - the wheel slips. We have to call for help to move the car from a slippery place, or go in search of what some branches, boards, sand and underlay them under a stalled wheel to ensure its grip.
Safe journey of the child in the car
In the morning to carry the child to school or kindergarten by car and pick it up at night - has become commonplace for a long time. But nothing about family trips on the weekend and have nothing to say. Your responsibility as a driver, increases many times if the kids in the car. You are obliged to ensure the safe journey of the child in the car. The child must be safe and comfortable as possible in your car. This will not be able to provide hands even the most caring and loving parents. The European Convention requires road transport children under the age of 12 years only in the back seat of a car and exclusively in children's chairs. Russia is known to be signed under the convention. Many people believe this requirement is tough enough to meet the child's safety. Is this true, because in a collision, even at low speed of the child can not hold in their hands. Unbearably frightening to hear about such accidents. There are videos of crash-tests with dummies, and if you just imagine for a moment, therefore, to transport children in the car, you must purchase child car safety seat for traveling with a child. It must pick up mainly by the weight of the child. Price chairs the material from which it is made, its appearance, as well as the child's age - secondary selection criteria. Manufacturers of car seats offer their three categories: for babies from birth for babies over 9 pounds and children from 15 kg. In each group there are seats universal model, the range of application wider than the 5-10 kg weight baby.
Fault diagnosis of automatic transmissions and transmissions
To facilitate fault automobile boxes - automata and their resolve, there are methods that are described below. But at the same time, to the ultimate success requires a fairly precise information collected and the correct analysis. This publication will describe in detail about the way that the fault diagnosis of automatic transmissions and transmissions. Causes failure of automatic transmission may be several, as each of them separately, and various combinations thereof: failure of the transformer malfunction of electronic control unit failure of the hydraulic control system violation adjustments maladjustment or zakisanie control cable wear friction controls malfunction of the mechanical part of the system management Diagnostics Troubleshooting Automatic transmission is desirable to subject in the following order: Check the condition and the oil level Check engine idling, the joints, electrical cable select band, check out the vacuum. And in the AKP, which has a hydraulic control system, you should check the shift control valve, throttle. Determine the fault code gearbox control unit engine. Check the car in a completely inhibited state. Check the pressure in the control system. Conduct road tests, ie when driving a car. Check control cable through the valve-throttle. In the management of PTC plays an important role shift control valve, throttle. This cable is used to connect the injection pump control lever or sector throttle control mechanism ACTs. The cable is a metal base, enclosed in a plastic shell, which both sides have a rigid fixation.
How can we improve the throttle cable?
How can I improve the gas pedal cable in reality and in fact today, what would it be at least reliably, efficiently, and work? To connect the cable itself with the gas pedal on your car, it was possible more durable and reliable? How to improve cable gas pedal, you ask, the answer is and it's easy, because there are many methods and ways for improvement, and the simplest and easiest way to do this is simply to expand the very opening the gas pedal a lever somewhere to 8-10 mm but no more, because you can not upgrade the cable gas pedal, but rather worsen the gas pedal, that would not be very good, and it may result to you simply disastrous. And then, after the increased opening to insert into the hole brass or bronze sleeve for example. After that, the cable itself well to reinforce in this hub. After which you want to shorten the tube through which the rope, depending on the car at 90-110 millimeters. At this time, the force on the gas pedal to be much smaller than before, and consequently much increased longevity of your tether. Improve throttle cable can also be if, instead of the usual, standard cable, take for example a speedometer cable ZAZ-966. Then hold it under the rug to your car and between the rear seats, and then bring in the engine compartment, through the previously made (old) hole. And the cover of your new cable is well secure in any situation the most compressed in any way. The same way car owners can also use this method to improve the gas pedal cable. Everyone knows that cable is very often or almost always ground in close proximity to the gas pedal, where it enters the tube.

Also, using this polish can remove the oxidized layer, which after a while formed on the surface of the body when exposed to ultraviolet light. A variety of chemicals, anti-icing agents - all of which help to remove restoring polishing. This polish should be done in several stages. To do this you must first car to handle "coarse" pasta with fur round. After that, should begin to spray the emulsion to prepare the body to the final stage. In order to determine how well the work is done, you need to look at the body surface, if you have a clear picture, the work is done conscientiously and efficiently. If on the contrary, we still have work to do. Another type of polishing - a protective polish. Its essence is to protect the body when the car wash, paint a layer of protection from burnout. Because of this polished body is much less smear and easier to clean. Between the protective and restorative polish there are differences.

In addition, return the car to its original form at any time simply by removing the film for pasting.
Car Fixed gps navigation
You can not slow down and, altogether, to stop technological progress. More recently, that way 10-12 years ago, for more mobile population seemed outlandish expensive stuff and was very rare. But inevitably, the fly forward and everything around us is changing. Today the mobile phone has almost all: the students, housewives and pensioners. GPS navigators seem, awaits the same fate. If abroad, GPS navigators are widely used for a long time, then in Russia in which GPS is just getting its momentum. Navigators use, mainly hunters, fishermen, sailors and tourists. In general, people whose activities relate directly to travel to places that are in the atlases that are not always marked. New relished as well, and motorists. They are using the device - a stationary car gps navigation - not only orient themselves in unfamiliar terrain. Navigators can suggest a path that would be the shortest. Look at what still is the GPS. GPS - abbreviation for the full name of Global Positioning System, which translated to English literally means "Global Positioning System." On the technical side of GPS is a system in which satellites, and their 24 pieces interact with each other. The satellites are constantly monitored from ground stations located all over the planet. A great variety of user receivers - GPS end-users of services. Your mobile can also be a receiver. The main function of the entire GPS system - to determine, based on data obtained from satellites, the location of GPS-receiver.
How to start a journey by car across Europe

A vehicle with a manipulator for transport of goods
Ordering gruzotaksi or any other vehicles, allowing to carry bulky cargo, customers do not forget about the cargo. It's very important. Unfortunately, not all trucks can vouch for the safety of the cargo. Do not forget that the goods come in various sizes and shapes are not always standard. They have even harder. But not enough to just deliver the goods from one point to another - it must first be immersed in the car, and then unload. And if the load is not only an unusual shape, but also very heavy? What to do? Well, do not hire the same crew of loaders! That is, for such purposes and there is a car with a crane for cargo. This is sort of a novelty in this area - this car combines a truck and loader. Ordering both of these vehicles, the customer will inevitably be greatly overpay. A vehicle with a manipulator can easily solve this problem. These vehicles are used not only in transportation - it would be irrational. They are indispensable for some construction work, or in warehouses. And these industries are very, very much. Naturally, there are several different types of vehicles with manipulators - and they all have a different purpose. They can be distinguished on the main profile of the work, as well as parameters such as load capacity and size. For example, not every vehicle to carry goods can pass through the archway at home or in a small courtyard. And not every car will master lift and oversized cargoes, such as a construction worker. For these purposes, and such a diversity of works and there is a wide choice of cars with a manipulator.
Features travel alone by car
You have to travel alone by car? Great idea! But note: your car should be ready for a long trip at least own you. Before departure, regardless of the extent and features of the upcoming trip, the car must be in perfect order. But we all know that from all the world can not be insured.

This problem is familiar to many parents: their child is crying, pale, breathing heavily and vomiting - it's called motion sickness kinetoz. Appeal to doctors rarely brings the proper result, they say: "Give candy to suck," "Let close your eyes and breathe deeply," "use the drug against motion sickness in the car," or encouraging "with age, pass." This problem often do not give due attention to, believe that the problem itself will take place with age. Inconveniences such as contaminated clothing and interior, and often spoiled the mood the whole family, it is advised to overcome firmly and calmly. However, loving parents can hardly meet such a situation. If we believe the world statistics on this problem affects 70% of adults, the disease kinetoz can be transferred and inherited. The most susceptible to motion sickness children from birth to 10-11 years. In girls, the disease occurs more frequently by almost 40%. Let's try to change themselves pitiable condition of the child to the best and forget altogether about kinetoze in the car.

Rules tow the broken vehicle
In case of sudden failure of the car on the road, the driver needs help from other participants in the movement, or special services available to the evacuation vehicles to deliver the car to the service. Since the towing vehicle shall be held frequently, it is natural that the main points of the rules of the road had been partially forgotten. Therefore, on the road frequently encountered motorists, helping each other, but this is not fair. This prevents towing of other traffic participants, resulting in an emergency situation may arise. So, if you notice a car on the roadside, but you do not know the rules of towing vehicle, it is better not call for help, as wrong actions can mess things up even more trouble. That would not have occurred any problem, let us remember the rules tow the broken vehicle. During the operation towing cars are less maneuverable, so the rules of the road clearly describes the steps that make towing more safe. Car speed linked limited to 50 kilometers per hour, with a towing vehicle must be running low beam, no matter what time of day, and a towed vehicle should be included emergency lights. Towing should be carried out using flexible or rigid coupling, or with full or partial loading on the loading platform. Towing with a flexible coupling is carried out using a special cable made of steel, rope or cable, where every meter should hang special signaling flags with stripes in two colors, red and white. The distance between the cars for transportation on a flexible coupling must be from 4 to 6 meters, it is necessary for the possibility of an emergency braking the towed vehicle.
Mode of work and leisure driving
Summer - a hot time for the holidays, traveling and just relaxing. During this period, on the roads across the country increased the number of buses, cars, which carry the transport of small groups of children or people on the resort, while overcoming hundreds of kilometers.

The history of trademark Mercedes - Benz begins after the first gasoline powered car Karl Benz. Mercedes-Benz also produces buses, mainly for Europe and Asia. Mercedes-Benz produces a range of vans. The first factory to be built outside Germany after WWII was in Argentina. It originally built trucks, many of which have been changed, and called Colectivo. Today, it builds buses, Trucks and the van Sprinter.

Device, and particularly diesel engines
In this article we consider the structure and features of the diesel engine, from the beginning to the present day. The world's first fully working diesel, built in 1897 in Augsburg, had the only working cylinder with a diameter of 250 mm and developed up to 19.8 horsepower. In this unit as a whole had more than three meters in height. What you need to know about the diesel engine to the potential buyer? Besides who lured advantages of the unit, capable of producing a maximum of 6000 rpm and still decided to part with some earned thousands of blood and sweat rather conventional units? In fact, nothing, except that at the gas station would have to drive up to the column marked "DT", completely forgetting your favorite number "98". The same manual, same pedals, same wheel, same user interface. Here are just some reason, the pace of sales of SUVs, equipped with a diesel-powered, gain, pardon the pun, turnovers. Speaking seriously, then this process can not but rejoice, because the stereotypes - something difficult to overcome. Nevertheless, at this stage, diesel is already slowly losing brutal glory of the conqueror of untilled fields Nechernozemie, prescribing under the hood is not the weakest polnoprivodnikov. We're not talking about the ascetic warriors with bad roads like the LR Defender, far, we are talking about those sleek comrades, who are unlikely nyuhnet anything harder shattered country road to suburban villa. Three-meter power first appearance of diesel engine on Russian soil dates back to 1898, then known industrialist Emmanuel Nobel, sensibly considering the prospects of the invention engineer Rudolf Diesel, refocused on the issue of diesel engines its St.

Specifications Humvee vehicle
Three completely different machines on different platforms, and different sizes, and all of the features, but neither are many common: an unforgettable style, morale, brutality. Not for nothing slogan hummer sounds like "nothing like this!", And themselves specifications Car Hummer inspire confidence as a highway and off-road for the deaf. But most drivers still do not differ from NC H1 ??and even more so from the H2. Due to this, of course, the marketing policies of the GM, whose members are called H2 and cars NC ", respectively the second and third generation of the famous American SUV. What is there generation? These machines only general angular shape, and six ribs on the false radiator lattice labeled Hummer. Although the pictures in the press release almost no perceptible difference, but it's worth to put cars in a row, as everything becomes clear. External differences in body H1 Wagon (station wagon) is, crackling diesel. Like a real warriors, in the appearance of nothing more, everything is simple and reliable. True, soldiers this year already retired, but still has not lost its former bearing. Rear view of a little spoiling the lack of spare wheel, it is not provided. CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System - a centralized paging system) allows you to adjust tire pressure while on the go, and if the compressor fails, it does not matter - you can go to run-flat wheel has thirty kilometers at a speed of 50 km / h. On H2 and NC such a system there, but the wheel hanging on the tailgate gives the appearance of a more complete image.
The birth of the most famous American brand Hummer
Hammer - one of the most well-known brands, led by General Motors. The main products of the factory - Specialty ATVs increased capacity. The plant itself is located in Indiana, namely in Mishavaka. Development and production of Humvees began when the army of America was in need of new roomy cars that could move through any terrain. Requested by the government in 1979 General Motors began developing the new generation car. Program to develop cars became known as the HMMWV M 998, which stands for "highly mobile wheeled vehicle for various purposes, the modification of 998. The Americans immediately dubbed a "vehicle" as "Hamm - form." After some modifications the car has to bear the proud name of the Hammer. This was the birth of the most famous American brand Hummer. The task before the designers of General Motors was not the easiest - the requirements for conversion have been insane. First, Hammer had to contain a number of soldiers in full combat ammunition clearance vehicle would be sufficient to travel over rough terrain, and yes even the height of the vehicle should be such that it was difficult to get from a heavy gun. In general, much effort has gone by the designer to meet all the wishes of the military. But within 11 months of General Motors introduced the world novelty - the M 998, which was released commercially in 1981 under the name N1 (this name is more familiar with the simple layman). The military began to carry out various tests with the car - he came out of all scrapes with highly elevated nose.

Professional SUVs - conquerors of off-road
Everything can be divided into three classes of off-road vehicles. Younger will be considered crossovers (they are also often referred to as "SUVs"). Middle part, we assume universal SUVs, designed to ride as the roads and over rough terrain. For high school students to assign a professional off-road, the main purpose of which - the mud puddle. About them and talk in this article. Classic SUVs - are the descendants of the legendary army jeep jeep. These machines were originally created for use in off-road conditions. Mud puddle - of their profession, however, do not think that a professional off-road car - a car with a purely brutal appearance a la "Jeep Wrangler or a Land Rover Defender. SUVs are the modern and beautiful, and luxurious, and generally what you want. More difficult to figure them out. However, to reveal this conqueror of off-road - can be. The main features of three. This is a support frame, axle suspension and the presence of a significant downshift ratio (not less than 1,8). Now let's talk more about each item. The first condition for the "pros" - is a powerful spar frame is capable of protecting the body from the blows, which in the present roads can not be avoided. Axle suspension - it is a strong bridge, girder, which is attached to the frame without hinges. Simple and sturdy construction. Pits and stones from a car suspension almost scary. The lowest part of the bottom - the main transmission sump. The rest - the car a huge clearance (clearance).
The main advantages of cars on gas
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) has all the information valuable fuel for internal combustion engines. Gas on the planet is regarded as a public eco-fuel that is better than gasoline. Plays an important role that the use of gas will not change the machine design, and will use cases and gasoline and natural gas as fuel. Liquefied natural gas has some physical and chemical properties, which should be considered to achieve greater economic and operational effect. Petroleum gas is a mixture of propane, butane and insignificant amount (around 1%) of unsaturated hydrocarbons. To date, at the gas stations are imported brands such gas, as the winter (85-95% propane) and summer (45-55% propane), established by GOST. This connection determines the properties of LPG, depending on air temperature and allows operation of the car with gas at any time of year. Liquefied gas is stored in the container under pressure from its own vapor at a temperature that does not depend on the volume of gas in the tank. This circumstance makes it possible to use all the gas in the cylinder. The main advantages of cars at a gas composed of: economy, anti-knock resistance. Octane number of gas is - 103-105, eliminates the possibility of explosion engine. This advantage is gas allows its use in engines with high compression ratio operating on high octane, expensive, gasoline. The absence of catalysts, metal fracture - the gas is not harmful contaminants - lead, sulfur, which in chemical reactions damaging to the combustion chamber.
Crossover Rally Fighter by Local Motors
The most important tuning show in Las Vegas, opening on 3 November, the company plans to introduce a crossover Rally Fighter. The company Local Motors finally completed its project to create a crossover with a turbodiesel engine. This event was awaited by millions of people around the world, as they participated in the design of the car. Local Motors Company of Massachusetts, the company manages a former Marine Jay Rogers, who in 2008 ran an Indian company to manufacture motorcycles. Production takes place in a regional, specialized workshops, workshops also will serve as a service station. The first such workshop is Veyrheme. Design of machines will be engaged in is not big factories. In 2010, plans to build such workshops in the states of: Arizona and Phoenix. The company plans to build 50 micro-refineries in different states. Interestingly also the fact that all the drawings car can be found on any registered user. What can not be seen in Russia. As the developers say, they used the work of designers from the Internet - Communities. The company spent a lot of time on design competitions, the main prize of the competition was the embodiment of the sketch. Indeed crossover design was created by the wishes of users. But the body and chassis are made tuners are fully merit of the company. New Rally Fighter is considered a crossover, it was designed by designer Kim Sango - The Japanese students, and he also drew cars online community. The crossover is equipped with 3.0 liter diesel equipment.
The main characteristic of gasoline is the octane number
In this article, "The main characteristic of gasoline is the octane number" we will tell you about the octane number, what it is and that it defines where it is used. Almost all modern machines use 4-stroke engines. Each cycle affects the inclusion of compression when the piston begins to compress the combustion chamber a mixture of fuel and air before a spark to ignite its spark. The compression ratio engine is also called the size of the compression mixture. Gasoline engines may also have compression ratio 8-1. _ So octane fuel tells us about how it can be compressed before it spontaneously ignite. If a mixture of gasoline ignited not by a spark, but because of the compression, it will knock. It will lead to very serious damage to your engine, so it must be fought. Know that the low-octane gasoline (say, A-92 is easy to cope with a smaller aspect ratio before ignition). The desired octane number determines the compression ratio engine. Increased compression ratio - this is one of the ways how to increase engine power, without changing its volume. The main advantage of any engine with a higher octane rating - is, of course, his power. Again, its main drawback - it's too expensive fuel. Incidentally the word "octane" has the following origin: When crude oil was subjected to "cracking" on the refinery plant, then received a huge amount of hydrocarbon chains CH, their chains were of different lengths. These chains can easily be separated from each other and get different kinds of fuel.
Honda: past, present and future. Brief history of the company
"The entrepreneur should not put a plausible goal, and do not be afraid of defeat" - more than once Saichiro Honda, who is the founder of the corporation Honda. And indeed, this principle lesson Saichiro in childhood, influenced his whole life and the lives of many people today. Indeed, precisely because of this principle, Saichiro Honda was able to succeed, which is still accompanied by the company Honda. As he began development of the company, whose products today is one of the best selling in its segment, not only in Japan but around the world? And it happened in 1948 in postwar Japan. It was then, with experience in building racing cars Saichiro Honda decided to produce cheap transportation for Japanese workers. The first vehicle was a so-called velomoped - Bike mounted with its kerosene engine. Moped called the Honda D from the English word dream - a dream. "I do not remember exactly why dream. I've often said that Honda will be the producer of world-class, so slowly, the bike was called a dream "- said many years later Saichiro Honda. The model went into production in 1951. And in 1957, a model called the Super cub, which honors was an unusual step that had been convenient for women and adolescents. Both models were great fun. Already in 1961, Honda produced about a hundred thousand riders per month. To the 70 th Honda was holding about 60 percent of the world market, and by 1990 production was 3 million units per year. Legendary Saichiro Honda has repeatedly argued that adhered to its rules.

Tuning Car Zaporozhets ZAZ
An interesting picture - Zaporozhets bright orange color. But appearances - is just the beginning. One Cossack, which will be discussed, it can "make" even a Mercedes. That is so easy and simple. It seems sort of weird idea, but it becomes very real, when you see it with my own eyes. More recently came to light a new creation from the company EL Motors, which manufactures exclusive cars from domestic cars. As a basis for future supercar was taken Zaporozhets simple. True, the price for the ZAZ was such as to a Mercedes. As for speed performance, it is the work not inferior to even the Ferrari and Porsche. Here it is, fantastic! This car has appreciated our famous racer Alexei Vasiliev, who personally made a test-drive cars. Before this car was born in biker circles were often talking about what someone needed to buy two excellent wells and parse them into pieces. It took exactly engines on these Yamaha R1. As you may have guessed, those "someone" have become engineers in the company's El Motors. These brand-new engines planned to put on a new supercar, which was built more than a year and a half. It is said that the project was launched thanks to some private customers, who wishes to remain anonymous. The main requirement was to get a really unique car that has not been anything like the world. Masters of the task of tuning the car Zaporozhets ZAZ understand and execute. We all know that Zaporozhets popularly known as "Brokeback" because his body shape.
Bugatti, the history of model cars
Company Bugatti, the history of model cars began in the town of Molsheim, France. The company expects to make a fast car, it took up an Italian immigrant, described as an eccentric genius - Ettore Bugatti. The original company is legendary that has produced some of the best cars in the world, so also the fastest. The original Bugatti brand failed with the exit from the World War II. The death of Ettore's son Jean was also a negative factor. The company struggled financially, and has released a latest model in the 1950's, before they bought part of the business airplane industry in the 1960's. Today the name of the company belongs to Volkswagen Group, the construction of extremely limited production sports cars. Founder Ettore Bugatti was born in Milan, Italy, and the automobile company that bears his name, was founded in 1909 in Molsheim, located in Alsace. The company was known and the level of development of parts for cars, Ettore family (his father, Carlo Bugatti (1856-1940) was an important designer of furniture and jewelry Art Nouveau). The company also enjoyed great success in the early racing engines Grand Prix, winning the first ever Monaco Grand Prix. The company's success culminated with driver Jean-Pierre Wimille double win 24 Hours of Le Mans (in 1937 with Robert Benoist and 1939 with Pierre Veironom). Bugatti cars were works of art, because they were created mechanically. Surfaces were so flat that it is not required to isolate, many surface exposed engine compartment.
Start a grandiose way concern BMW
Homeland of this concern is Germany. Firms producing aircraft engines have been created by Karl Rapp and Gustav Otto in Munich at the same time, in 1913. Soon after the First World War and orders companies have increased significantly. Then the businessmen decided to come together and created a new company, Bayerische Motoren Werke - BMW. "Bavarian Motor Works" were recorded in July 1917. This was the beginning of a grand way by BMW. Work on a joint factory boil. Chief designer was Max Fritz, who worked previously in the famous company Daimler. It was he who became the founder of engine BMW III a. Aircraft equipped with this engine, the end of 1917 set a world record lift at high altitude record was 9,760 meters. The History of the BMW badge is very interesting. The creators decided to divide the circle into four parts so that it resembled the shape of a propeller in the sky. Two pieces of painted white (propeller), and the remaining two in blue (the color of the sky). In addition, the national colors of Bavaria, the home group were white, and blue. After the war, was signed the Treaty of Versailles, on which all the inhabitants of Germany were forbidden to make any engines for aircraft. And it was the only product produced by the plant. But the Germans were resourceful entrepreneurs and repurpose their business. BMW began producing engines for motorcycles, and then themselves motorcycles. The first motorcycle was released in 1923. R32 was presented at an exhibition in Paris, where he immediately won the sympathy of all.
Features Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
Our life goes on. Every day, upgraded something old and there is something new. With such a race for something new and unique, we sometimes forget that what we were, say, 10 years ago. But, thank God, there are some things that we can remember those, like not far away, but the bygone era. There are many things, such as the legendary Elvis plate, Adidas sneakers, and to this list, you can add features Chevrolet Corvette. The first Corvette was produced and presented to the public back in 1953. He had a fiberglass body. But, unfortunately, was not quite a powerful engine that, in principle, and prevented a large and successful sales. After all, the power for a car is essential. In this regard, they decided to fix the problem with the engine and two years later, the engine was replaced by the unit, which had 225 horsepower with a three-speed manual gearbox. But despite this, up until 1963, Corvett constantly subjected to modernization and improvement. Its development is not set went forward. And so, in 1963, public critics and ordinary motorists, was introduced Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Most of them expressed their admiration for this product. A futuristic design, in particular, recorded a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The creator of this unique design was by David Halls. Here he applied and podshtampovki muscular type, complex plastic boards, and even today the car many consider the most beautiful car of all time. When you create that image, he used the most ordinary bottle of Coca-Cola, particularly inspired waist elegant bottles.

The best supercars past and present
The best supercars past and present, is not only a means of transportation from point A to point B. It is a world in which no accepted common standards. This is a world in which machines are the embodiment of luxury and prestige. In the mid-60's have turned out Lamborghini's fastest production car in the world, has become a revolution in the automotive industry. He became recognized as one of the last century supercar - it's Lamborghini Miura. The first thing to catch the eye Miura, a landing. The lowest point of landing in this car racing type is only ten centimeters from the surface of the roadway. Before the driver's eyes are the two main instrument. Speedometer, with the scale 320 kilometers per hour and a tachometer. What is interesting, starting with a speedometer scale is 40 kilometers per hour. The central part of the panel resembles the cockpit. And indeed, this allegory is confirmed by a large number of various switches located at the top. Gearshift lever corresponds to the scheme of Italian, so beloved by many motorists. If passengers Lamborghini began to get nervous, but it really often happened in their possession were not only rail, but also special footrests. When driving at low landing Miura exciting. The driver is almost in a chair, as in real racing cars of the time. The driver offers spectacular views through the windshield. He literally hovered over the road. Feet at the same time had set on both sides of the steering wheel. Landing is not the most familiar, but the roof is a standard height.
Bugatti Veyron, top speed
The fastest car in the world recognized Bugatti Veyron (engine size - 8 l, power - 1001 hp), and James Meyu nicknamed 'Captain Helix'. Apparently opposites still attract. Bugatti Veyron, which reaches a maximum speed of 230 km / h, is considered the fastest car sport class.
The theory of internal combustion engine
The internal combustion engine is one of the most widely used in engineering. Install it on boats, tractors, ships, cars, etc., on the planet can be well read about hundreds of millions of these engines. In this article we describe what the theory of internal combustion engine. So, let's begin. Devices piston engine. The main part of the internal combustion engine is a gas distribution and a crank mechanism, as well as cooling systems, power supply, ignition and lubrication system. Crank mechanism is designed to convert the rectilinear translational reciprocal motion of the piston into rotary motion of the crankshaft. Timing mechanism to ensure timely admission of fuel into the cylinder and remove it from the products of combustion. The power supply system is needed to prepare and submit a combustible mixture into the cylinder, and take the products of combustion. Lubrication system is needed to supply oil to the details of interactions to partially cool them and reduce the friction force, together with the circulating oil washes away the carbon deposits and removes the products of wear. The normal temperature of the engine supports the cooling system, which facilitates extraction of heat from a heat-generating components valve train and cylinder piston group. Ignition system ignites the working mixture in the cylinder. Classification of ICE by method of formation of the mixture: the internal formation of a mixture (mixture will be formed by working inside the cylinders) - Diesel engines.
The design of the camshaft and drive
There are three important characteristics of the construction of a camshaft, and they control the engine power curve: gas distribution phase of the camshaft, valve opening duration and magnitude of valve lift. Later in this article we will describe what constitutes a design camshafts and their drive. Valve lift is usually calculated in millimeters and represents the distance at which the maximum valve moves away from the saddle. The duration of valve opening - this time, which is measured in degrees of crankshaft rotation. Length can be measured in different ways, but because the maximum flow with a small valve lift, duration measures the usually after the valve is already rising from the seat by a certain amount, often it is 0,6 or 1,3 mm. For example, a specific camshaft may be the duration of the opening in 2000 turns when climbing in the 1.33 mm. As a result, if we use the rise of the pusher in the 1.33 mm as a stopping point and started lifting the valve, the camshaft will hold the valve in the open state during the 2000 rotation of the crankshaft. If the duration of valve opening will be measured at zero lift (when he was just moving away from the seat or in it), the length of the crankshaft will be 3100 or even more. Moment when a certain valve closes or opens, often called phase camshaft timing. For example, the camshaft can perform the action of opening the intake valve at 350 before top dead center and close it at 750 after the bottom dead center. Increase the separation valve lift can be a useful effect in increasing engine power, since power can be added without significant interference with the engine performance, especially at low revs.

Differences between model Aston Martin One-77
The famous auto show in Geneva, has witnessed the world premiere of the new offspring of the famous British car manufacturer - Aston Martin One-77. Left behind months of waiting, dozens psevdodostovernyh pictures from the Internet and carefully calculated PR-company. Features of the market are supercars that demand always exceeds supply and in the case of Aston Martin One-77 This rule has found its further confirmation. The company Aston Martin has planned to release 77 copies One-77 and has already received about 100 applications, advance secured not less than 200 thousand pounds. The total cost of a supercar on various estimates range from 1.2 million to 1.7 million pounds. So in what is the difference between models of Aston Martin One-77 from its known competitors? Background: Prior to the establishment, the company's specialists have carefully studied the experience of a supercar classic rear-wheel drive layout. Source of inspiration for them were racing car series DTM (Deutschen Produktionswagen Meisterschaft). Design: The body of the noble Briton was designed in close collaboration with Multimatic, a leader in the creation of carbon fiber materials and technologies for their production. By carboxylic chassis will be fitted aluminum panels hand-made. All forms of car body have been very carefully worked out with an aerodynamic point of view. And though at first glance at the side surfaces of the body One-77 seems to us that Mercedes-Benz SLR, but on closer examination are seen dramatic differences.
How to differentiate between the types of car bodies
Automotive - a vast field of activity for today's designers. Over the past few decades, created a lot of new models of cars of different brands. Improved not only the interior of the car and "inner content", but the car body. At the moment, the number of body types more than doubled. Manufacturers strive to unite in one body style a few standard designs. Options like one another, but they can be discerned. To learn how to distinguish between types of vehicle bodies, will talk in this article. Types of bodies of cars are divided into three groups: 1. One-volume 2. Two-volume 3. Three-volume. Three-volume vehicle. For the three-volume group of bodies include: convertibles, sedans, coupes and pickups. A distinctive feature of this car body is protruding trunk and hood. This body type has a limited ability to transform the trunk and passenger compartment. Coupe and sedan. The most prestigious body type is sedan. The main difference from a sedan Coupe - is the number of doors. Compartment - a two-door design. Sedan is the basic design coupe, but the difference not only in the number of doors. Coupe - a sportier look, the body is somewhat lower and the motor is more powerful. Sometimes, liftback coupe reminiscent of the three-door models. But even if the three-volume coupe body just can not be determined, we can look at the location of the tailgate. If the door is vertical - it means before you hatch. If the baggage door is nearly horizontal - this coupe. Coupe-cabriolet, coupe and roadster.
