How Ford’s New Grille Shutters Control Airflow
Some new Ford vehicles feature active grille shutters — a new system that optimizes aerodynamics by using vents to control airflow through the grille to the cooling system and engine compartment. If air is required to cool the engine, the vents are opened. If no airflow is needed, the vents are shut, contributing to significantly
Tech Tip: Nissan Low Airflow from HVAC Front Air Vents
If you confirm one of the above vehicles has low airflow coming from the HVAC front air vents due to evaporator freeze-up, and the HVAC unit surface temperature around the evaporator is about 32 degrees Fahrenheit, causing ice to form on the evaporator, follow the Service Procedure in this Tech Tip, which involves replacing the intake sensor with P/N 27700-ZC00A.
Tech Tip: BMW Check Engine Light On and Vehicle Running Rough Due to Airflow Meter
If a customer complains of a check engine light on and a vehicle running rough, it may be due to problems with the airflow meter and wiring.
The 1934 Chrysler Airflow was First North American Aerodynamic Production Automobile
Kevin Williamson’s father first purchased a used Chrysler Airflow in 1939 and ever since then Airflows have been a part of their family. The entire family attended the first national meet of the Airflow Club of America in Detroit in 1964.
Tech Feature: Mass Airflow Sensors Are Critical In Today’s Engine Management Systems
In addition to providing an exact measurement of airflow into the engine, airflow sensor inputs can be used to provide a load-sensing input to the powertrain control module (PCM) to help control the shift points and shift quality of an automatic transmission.
Air Filters and Fuel Trims
Modern engines rely on precise airflow and oxygen sensor data for optimal performance.
Lifter Deactivation
The area of contact between the lifters and cam lobes is the highest loaded surface inside an engine.
