V6 engine animation

Waaa??

[yapanuwan]

If it weren't 120 degrees, then it can't have 2 pistons per crank pin. Correct?

[EMIR72CC]

@yapanuwan 120 per piston yes

[mustang6172]

@yapanuwan You can share pins at less than 120 degres, but you have to splay the crank pins.

understanding a v8 is easy its basically 2 inline 4 engines combine but v6 this is tough to understand

[hayden12w3]

@Brendon00000 Unless it's a crossplane V8, then things become more complicated. But I do agree with you, I still haven't figured out the V6. Especially the ones with those wacky split-pin cranks and stuff like that. Too much!

@hayden12w3 As mine, split crank 4.3 Chevrolet. 209 thousand miles.

[Sengeto]

that's ecxactly how the mitsubishi montero engine works

[Hawkskill818]

Chrysler uses this in their 3.5 V6... Firing order = 1-2-3-4-5-6

[bigjoe65459]

Didnt Renault and others use turbocharged v6 with a 120 degree spread in 80's F1 cars?

[angrygunsmith]

so is a straight six like double the length? whats a slant 6, same as the v6 except inline right?

[gooseknack]

@angrygunsmith Itg depends on the crank design, but usually a V6 is about the length of a 4 cylinder!

[angrygunsmith]

@gooseknack ohk coool

[Anarchemitis]

Cool.

Now do a radial engine! :D

[elliottbradshaw]

Imagine how power youd get out of a 2 stroke v12

[SoldierCyfix]

a lot. it would also consume a hell of a lot of fuel.

i think they use v12 for semi trucks

[E34BMW535i]

@SoldierCyfix most semi trucks use inline 6 or v8 diesel.

[seang15243]

Ferrari used a 120 degree dino v6 for racing at one time, as well as the worlds only 65 degree v6.

[HYBRIDhater]

what engine is that? 123456?

[KLONIME1001]

its a V6

[HYBRIDhater]

i know its a v6 but i was asking what make im not and idot thats just a weird firing order

[KLONIME1001]

oh oh. idk . probobly american

. cuz i got GTP. and it works the same way

[BenV6]

@HYBRIDhater - it's 1-4-2-5-3-6

[HYBRIDhater]

@BenV6 I can see the firing order I am asking WHO MAKES IT

[BenV6]

@HYBRIDhater Ford Mustang/Explorer ... 4.0 V6 ...
