    Abstract: Provided are a method of manufacturing an engine, an engine, and a connected cylinder. The method of manufacturing an engine includes at least a fitting step of fitting a connected cylinder to a hollow portion of a cylinder block main body. The connected cylinder is (1) a first connected cylinder including two or more cylinder liners and a connecting portion configured to connect the two or more cylinder liners to each other or (2) a second connected cylinder including a connected cylinder main body portion having two or more cylinder bores and a coating configured to cover an inner peripheral surface of the connected cylinder main body portion in which the cylinder bores are formed. The cylinder block main body has one end side, another end side, and the hollow portion passing through the cylinder block main body from the one end side to the another end side.

    Abstract: The objective of the invention is to cause a load for reducing the warm-up time of an exhaust gas purifying device to be generated efficiently, and to make effective use of the energy required to reduce the warm-up time of the exhaust gas purifying device. The present invention relates to a vehicular storage battery system used in a vehicle 1 having an exhaust gas purifying device 12 which purifies exhaust gas from an engine 11, the vehicular storage battery system including: a capacitor 14 which stores electric power generated by an electricity generator 13 driven by the engine 11; an electric power control circuit 17 which controls the supply of electric power generated by the electricity generator 13 to a battery 15 and to the capacitor 14; a warm-up control device 18 which determines whether or not the exhaust gas purifying device 12 requires warming up; and a control means which, if the warm-up control device 18 determines that the exhaust gas purifying device 12 requires warming up, controls the electric power control circuit 17, and after the engine 11 has started up, causes the engine 11 to drive the electricity generator 13 and causes the electric power generated by the electricity generator 13 to be supplied more preferentially to the capacitor 14 than to the battery 15.
