                You're lucky Mike - whenever I get an extra day off I usually find a "To Do" list on the kitchen counter next to the coffee pot. Good one George - "I really can't SEE coming in today" !!

                          How come 'slow up' and 'slow down' mean the same thing?

                          Why is the third hand on a watch called the second hand?

                          I'm not sure what makes diesels clatter.

                          Answers to any of these will be appreciated.

                            Being retired is one big "To Do" list. When do I get to play with my toys..
                            I just love my Hot Rods.

                            Long Hauled 2009,2010,2011,2012 and 2013. Loved every minute of it.

                              Because with regard to speed, the vector is irrelevant.

                              Because the third hand indicates "seconds".

                              In the true diesel engine, only air is initially introduced into the combustion chamber. The air is then compressed with a compression ratio typically between 15:1 and 22:1 resulting in 580 psi pressure compared to about 200 psi in the petrol engine. This high compression heats the air to 1,022*F. At about the top of the compression stroke, fuel is injected directly into the compressed air in the combustion chamber. This may be into a void in the top of the piston or a pre-chamber depending upon the design of the engine. The fuel injector ensures that the fuel is broken down into small droplets, and that the fuel is distributed evenly. The heat of the compressed air vaporizes fuel from the surface of the droplets. The vapour is then ignited by the heat from the compressed air in the combustion chamber, the droplets continue to vaporise from their surfaces and burn, getting smaller, until all the fuel in the droplets has been burnt. The start of vaporisation causes a delay period during ignition, and the characteristic diesel knocking sound as the vapor reaches ignition temperature and causes an abrupt increase in pressure above the piston.

                              Hope this helps .....
                              ;D
