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.
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

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 😊❤
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.
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.
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
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
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.
Thanks for including the Straight 8.
All straight engines are explained very well. Thanks for this video ❤️
You're welcome
Good to see the different layout of Engine and their advantages and disadvantages

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
@@bob-a-louannamaria7960oh I care
And hundreds of others do as well
You don’t talk about “no one” when there’s plenty people that care
@@bob-a-louannamaria7960 I care. Volvo are excellent vehicles.
Very enjoyable, Jeep had 4.0 inline 6 that is legendary to Jeep owners!

2:55 add the Trabant.
You forgot to mention that every Chevrolet produced from 1929 until 1954 had an inline 6.
Thank you very much kind stranger
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.
Great Video 🤓🇨🇦
I have a 3cyl engine in my Mitsubishi Mirage. Love this little car. I'm getting 47 mpg on the hwy
I enjoyed the presentation
0:58 Slight nit pick about the locomotive in picture, The Class 50's used a V16 engine.
Straight 6s usually had 15362 firing order. Wow I miss working on those things.
Dont forget number 4!

The I2 is also used in '87 Lada Oka (VAZ-1111)

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
Do you have pdf version for this in the blog.can you send it.
Watching it in June gives me a weird feeling
Why?

They forgot about the in-line 1 engine.
Briggs Stratton, Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha, Husqvarna, predator, Subaru, and may more have made that engine.
My 67 Firebird Has A Straight 6 Overhead Cam
V4 is the best to bad manufacturers cheaped out
Chrysler and Buick also made Straight 8 engines
Also Nash. Straight 8s generally suffer from the tendency of the crankshaft to twist under load.
Inline 6 sound was a BMW i guess😁
As far as i can hear
(Very similar to my BMW M50B25
Yes
What is bs 6 engine
A jeep tj with an inline 8 engine would be intresting
