Talk:Petrol engine

message: This sentence is overly complicated and redundant. "Petrol engines run at higher rotation speeds than diesels, partially due to their lighter pistons, connecting rods and crankshaft (a design efficiency made possible by lower compression ratios) and due to petrol burning more quickly than diesel." 
:Propose to change to "Petrol engines run at higher rotations (or RPM) than Diesel Engines. This partially due to the use of lighter pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft (a design efficiency made possible by lower compression ratios) and because petrol burns more quickly than diesel does."

message: I'm going to cut out the reference in the introduction to Gasoline direct injection; there are many variants on fuel injection systems, and it isn't clear that this one is notable enough to be called out specifically.  Lauciusa (talk) 23:11, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

message: The articles for Steam and Diesel engines have thermal efficiency listings; therefore, it would be best for Gasoline also to have such a listing, for comparative purposes. 63.3.9.1 (talk) 02:07, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

message: I have made the proposal to generally prefer "gasoline" over "petrol" at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Automobiles#Usually_Gasoline.2C_but_sometimes_Petrol.  If agreed to, this would see this page renamed to Gasoline engine.  Please comment at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Automobiles#Usually_Gasoline.2C_but_sometimes_Petrol.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:53, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: What people should learn from reading this section? With all these talks about politics, ecology, efficiency something, petrol over gasoline, missing hyperlink here or colon there and other crap like this... How everyone continue to miss the point? I think adding "Oiling system" is basic. Like How it works, and how the pistons are getting oiled inside the cylinders etc. At least some basics. IMHO, Wikipedia is getting further and further away.from being source of knowledge.</br>
