Understanding the Basics of Car Engine Types
Tumblr media
When buying a car, one of the most critical aspects to understand is the type of engine it uses. The engine is the heart of any vehicle, and knowing how different car engine types work can help you make an informed decision. Whether you’re considering fuel efficiency, power, or environmental impact, each engine type offers unique advantages. In this blog, we’ll break down the basics of car engine types, including petrol, diesel, hybrid, and electric engines, to help you choose the one that fits your needs.
1. Petrol Engines
Petrol engines, also known as gasoline engines, are among the most common types found in passenger vehicles. These engines use a spark-ignition system to ignite the air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber.
Advantages of Petrol Engines:
Smoother and Quieter: Petrol engines tend to run smoother and quieter compared to diesel engines.
Lower Initial Cost: Cars with petrol engines are generally cheaper than diesel variants.
Lower Maintenance: Maintenance costs are typically lower due to simpler engine design and fewer emissions control components.
Disadvantages of Petrol Engines:
Lower Fuel Efficiency: Petrol engines usually consume more fuel than diesel engines.
Higher Emissions: They emit more carbon dioxide, contributing more to environmental pollution.
2. Diesel Engines
Diesel engines work on the principle of compression ignition. Instead of using a spark, the air is compressed to a high temperature, and fuel is injected into the chamber, causing it to ignite.
Advantages of Diesel Engines:
Better Fuel Economy: Diesel engines are more fuel-efficient, especially on long drives and highways.
Higher Torque: Ideal for towing and heavy-duty vehicles due to strong torque output.
Longer Engine Life: Diesel engines are robust and generally last longer.

I should honestly screenshot my chart next time I play Sunless Sea because I've got some truly atrocious procedural generation this run. Like what do you mean I have to go directly through Khan's Heart to get to the Polythreme??? Also Mt Palmerston being way too close to be used effectively as a fuel stop without cutting it very close on the return trip.

So apparently I could, at some point, get the body work I've been meaning to get done on my car for about $1200-1500? And the interior upholstery and seats can be redone for $600 or $700?
That's definitely something I'd like to save up for in the next few months or so....

so many of the transfems i know spent their time pre-transition performing a kind of lifelong exercise in self-deprivation, the goal of which was to find out exactly how little a person needed to live. they starved themselves, dressed carelessly, shunned friends, and hollowed themselves out so as not to be burdens on anyone but themselves.
i see it now, too, in the girls around me. i'll ask if they want care – a home-cooked meal, relaxed company, sex without the expectation of reciprocation – and they say no, no, thank you, i don't need it; what would you like, what do you want, because in their head they're still doing that awful calculus, still training themselves to disappear in the eyes of the people around them.
i don't think i'd have died without transition – not in the conventional sense, at least – but to take that leap, i had to stop thinking of myself as a human experiment in fuel-efficient living and start nurturing the anemic, atrophied flame of desire in my heart. i had to learn to eat well, to exercise, to style myself beautiful, but harder than that, i had to learn to ask the people around me to work on my behalf in order to enrich my life and give me the things i wanted.
and i did it; i learned. and it was agony, but courage is a muscle you can train, and every day i get better at accepting gifts with the hungry gratitude i never learned in my years and years as a sad, scared, lonely boy.
so be patient with the trans girls in your life. better than that: be proactive, attentive, generous; be forceful, if you have to, and learn to distinguish real discomfort from the terrified reflex of self-denial that so many of us once learned to rely on.
and if you are so lucky as to love a trans girl, you must insist upon her. you must insist upon her happiness, her comfort, her pleasure, and her rest, because she may still not yet know how to make those demands for herself. if you can devote any amount of energy to becoming an engine that nurtures the flame of even a single tgirl then there is a place for you in trans heaven, which as far as i'm concerned is the only one worth going to
