- Different "Inline Engine" Configurations Explained | [I2 to I8]
Introduction:
The straight or inline engine is an internal combustion engine with all cylinders aligned in one row and having no offset. In this engine construction, the cylinders are placed in a straight line. The inline engine can have up to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 8 cylinders.
Inline engines are smaller in overall physical dimensions than designs such as the radial and can be mounted in any direction. These engines are very common in vehicles with an engine capacity of up to 3 liters. Although, the manufacturers term an inline engine with four cylinders as an Inline-4 engine. They usually denote it by I4 or L4 in a car’s nomenclature.
1) Straight-Twin Engine: A straight-twin engine, also known as an inline-twin, vertical-twin, or parallel-twin, is a two-cylinder piston engine with cylinders arranged in a line along with a common crankshaft.
2) Straight-3 Engine: A straight-three engine (also called an inline-triple or inline-three) is a three-cylinder piston engine where cylinders are arranged in a line along with a common crankshaft.
3) Straight-4 engine: An inline-four cylinder (also known as an I-4 or straight-four) engine is a very popular choice for today’s economy vehicles as the simple design allows for both efficiency and perfect primary balance. In an I-4 engine, all 4 cylinders are mounted in a straight line along with a single crankshaft and oriented in an inclined or vertical plane
4) Straight-5 Engine: The straight-five or inline-five engine is an IC engine with five cylinders aligned in one row, sharing a single-engine block and crankcase. The justification for a five-cylinder engine is that it is compact as an inline-four and almost as smooth as a straight-six engine.
5) Straight-6 Engine: The straight-six engine (also referred to as an inline-six engine; abbreviated I6 or L6) is an internal combustion engine with six cylinders mounted in a straight line along the crankcase with all the pistons driving a common crankshaft (straight engine).
6) Straight-8 Engines: The straight-eight engine or inline-eight engine (often abbreviated as I8 or L8) is an eight-cylinder internal combustion engine with all eight cylinders mounted in a straight line along the crankcase.

Thanks for watching, and subscribe for more.
Thanks for including the Straight 8.
All straight engines are explained very well. Thanks for this video ❤️
You're welcome
I learn a lot ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good to see the different layout of Engine and their advantages and disadvantages
Your explaining very concise and quality
Glad you think so!
I love the sound of the TVR Tuscan inline 6. I grew up with many AMC cars in my family and know how to work on them. Inline 6 all the way! Now I drive a Gogoro S1 motorcycle which has an electric motor, but the straight 6 still has a place in my heart.
The AMC inline 6s were easily killable. Usually the result of willfully neglected maintenance. The engines were actually built tighter than say a Ford inline. Unfortunately the carburation and intakes on the 199, 232, and 258 were tuned towards the economy end of the spectrum. I never understood why they did not go to fuel injection prior to the 4.0. The 4.0 is just begging for some brave soul to cut apart a set of Ford or Chevrolet small block V-8 heads for a cross flow head on the 4.0. The bore center is the same as the Ford Windsor and Cleveland at 4.380". And only .020" less than the Chevy SB and the LS/LT family.
Very enjoyable, Jeep had 4.0 inline 6 that is legendary to Jeep owners!
That engine actually was developed by AMC and derived from their venerable 232/258 cid i6 engines from the 70s. All of those engines are extremely durable

Happy Christmas 🎄 Thanks 👍
I enjoyed the presentation
Muy buen video! Personalmente, el motor en línea que más me gusta es el I4, pero no sabía que habían coches con motor I8!
There are no car with straight eight engines well not for many , many decades. The only straight eight still produced or used would be in large ships.
Thank you very much kind stranger
Excellent!
Great Video 🤓🇨🇦
You forgot to mention that every Chevrolet produced from 1929 until 1954 had an inline 6.
i just love it
I'm an engine inquisitive person ☺️.
This video just make me wao 😲!
Thanks 💐
I have a 3cyl engine in my Mitsubishi Mirage. Love this little car. I'm getting 47 mpg on the hwy
Many straight motors in my career. I have owned numerous straight 6 engines and have found them generally satisfactory. Installed in old pickup trucks they were motors with good torques characteristics and quite smooth. In the older vehicles that required more maintenance the straight 6 motors were much easier to work on I have also owned straight 2, 3 and 4 cylinder motorcycles. The two cylinders was a bit shakey. The 3 cylinder was a shaft driven Yamaha, very smooth good torque, Engine sound was surprisingly pleasant. The 4 cylinder motorcycle is a late model sport bike with balancing shaft and is incredibly powerful with quite reasonable vibration. I seems that instead of the 4 cylinder having one or two vibration pronounced vibration points it has just a slight vibration at all speeds. I would be curious to know more about the 3 cylinder firing order and vibration peaks.
Ford did a lot of work on inline fives in the 20s and early 30s. Henry Ford was never happy with how they ran. He wanted more power without having to go with a 6 cylinder. Hence the flathead V-8. A lot of US inline 6s pre WWll had only 3 or 4 main bearings. One issue with a 4 main bearing crank is in a fully pressurized oiling system is two of the main bearings have to eupply oil to two rod journals while the front and rear bearing only supply the #1 and #6 rod journals. In a three main bearing crank oiling is dependent on splash oiling.

As well as the S54*
The I2 is also used in '87 Lada Oka (VAZ-1111)
Fails to mention that most Volvo's built from 1991 to 2016 have an I5, both petrol, and diesel versions, basically making Volvo the I5 king. Volvo did indeed use the VW I5 diesel for a while before they came up with their own design in 2001.
Nobody cares about Volvslow
What do you mean?
@@bob-a-louannamaria7960 no one buys volvos for speed its because they are safe and reliable, and they are still more powerful than most cars
I remember when my grandpa had a 1980s Ford Falcon with a straight/inline 6 engine. It was fire in that car till he sold it some years ago
Love my straight 6 408 cid Cummins
By the time the Valiant Charger was in production, the Hemi six had already replaced the slant 6. And the slant was only put into some export only Valiants.
Straight 6s usually had 15362 firing order. Wow I miss working on those things.
Dont forget number 4!
@@rossbrumby1957he's just sitting there
2:55 add the Trabant.
Please make a video on octane booster.
Do you have pdf version for this in the blog.can you send it.
❤ super
Cylinder head nut tightening in the order of sequence please explain
motorcycle inline 4!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 eargasm!
Straight-3 Engine is also used on Ford Puma Hybrid.
Learnt something
Watching it in June gives me a weird feeling
Why?
@@darryladams519 hello
i like the 8 cylinder straight engine
Yup in 1930's sport cars.
We need a modern inline 8
Yes
My 67 Firebird Has A Straight 6 Overhead Cam
I Have 1973 Chevy C20 4 Ton Turck With 292 6 inline engine and 2003 Honda Accord Ex 2.4 4 Inline
0:58 Slight nit pick about the locomotive in picture, The Class 50's used a V16 engine.
A jeep tj with an inline 8 engine would be intresting
What is bs 6 engine
👍👍👍👍
fun fact: a one cylinder, 4-horsepower engine powered the oldsmobile curved dash
It has one cylinder
One piston
One connecting rod
One crankshaft
One balance wheel and Two Valves
the complications of larger multi-cylinder engines were eliminated.
Favorites:
1. Inline-6
2. Inline-4
Inline 8: 😢
❤❤
Inline 6 sound was a BMW i guess😁
As far as i can hear
(Very similar to my BMW M50B25
The 5 in line engines petrol with the cc of 1400 1500 1600 turbo or supercharge or efi or twin cam or doce or vvti technologys engines are the best to use in fuel economy and best fast pick and sadan acceleration for a light car or light jeep or light van etc kind of vehicals i think so its the best 😊❤
super 1 st comment😍
Thank you so much
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Chrysler and Buick also made Straight 8 engines
Also Nash. Straight 8s generally suffer from the tendency of the crankshaft to twist under load.
Cummins 6.7 straight 6 in my truck

I have owned 2 cylinder 3 cylinder and 4 cylinder motor cycles l have owned 4 cylinder motor vehicles ranging from 1200cc through to 2600cc and l have driven a 5 cylinder turbo deisel engined vehicle at now we own two motor vehicles and both are 4 cylinders l live in Australia and the 4 cylinder cars a very common l have also owned two 6 cylinder cars but most of the motor vehicles we have owned were and are 4 cylinders
Funny, that subaru 3 cyl car looked more like a suzuki swift which also could have a 3 cyl.
great...my car has a straight 3 engine
Now this is one that wouldn't need an explanation....inline whatever is gonna be a straight line. Other than the tilt such as a slant 6. But the engines all look the same
Chryslers Slant Six was nothing more than a normal inline six leaned over at a 30° angle from the vertical. This was done for no other reason than to lower hood lines on the 1961 Valiant (1). And Chrysler was not the only manufacturer to lean an inline over. In my mind a true Slant would be an engine th hat has a horizontal pan rail with the cylinder bores at an angle. Two examples would be the Pontiac Trophy Four and the International fours used in the Scout. The first being 1/2 of a 389 and the other 1/2 of the IH 304 (2).
1) The butt ugliest car ever built in the US.
2) No relation to the AMC 304.
I saw a Leno.
You forgot the gr yaris and the lada oka cuz the lada oka has a 2 cylinder
And the gr yaris has a 3 cylinder
🙃
What do you mean by a upside down face
V4 is the best to bad manufacturers cheaped out
diesel straight 4 bro🇹🇭
Well, yes, but why inline 7 car never exist?
I’m guessing a inline 7 is unbalanced?
Not as much as an inline 9

Inline 7?
The only practical application for a straight 8 engine is a stationary application such as generators and specific machinery. As for why many car manufacturers who discontinued the inline 6 dispite it's smoothness, balance, reliability & having been available on virtually every make at one time or another, I suspect has to do with length, particularly as transverse FWD cars began to dominate the market in the mid 1980s as well as becoming more compact, a V6 being able to fit in FWD and RWD cars, station wagons, vans and pick ups, seemed more practical from an assembly line standpoint, therefore largely replaced the inline 6 which was typically only usable in the larger RWD body on frame cars which pretty much ruled the roads prior to the 1980s when fuel economy really became a focal point in the auto industry after the two oil shocks in the 1970s.
Even aside from the oil crises and CAFE standards, some manufacturers figured out that by taking their V8s and deleting two cylinders, they could make a more cost-effective 6 cylinder, with the added benefit of being more compact. GM started doing this as early as the 60s
Packaging killed the inline six mostly.
They forgot about the in-line 1 engine.
You forgot about inline 12
Inline 4 engine section: HOW COULD YOU NOT NAME THE 1997 VW PASSAT B5 THE LENGEDARY 1.9 TDI I4 120hp Super reliable
Thanks, but you didn’t mention Ratfink engines, they the most awesome expressive engines because they have more eyeballs and tongues to admire them... What, you didn’t know? Well You just have to trust me or search it out.
My car has a V4 or V6.
U not sure?
Bro is that a supra?
Translate to hindi
Leyland Motors is pronounced "Lay-Land" not "leelland". Leyland is a well known name.
Исqs me
Translate to hindi please
that sound of INLINE6 people from KIGALI can create it for INLINE2 cars for only 20$😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Austin and Aston Martin are not related.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned that.
