As used in canon:

   chuyDaH yIlaQ
   Fire the thrusters! TKD

   chuyDaH!
   Thrusters. ST3/TKD

   <chuyDaH yIchu'>  (?)
   Engage thrusters! ST6

   Hong boq chuyDaH: loS
   Impulse Fusion Thrusters - 4 (KBoP)

   'o' chuyDaH Hongghor je
   aft thrusters and impulse drive (KBoP)

A single thruster is {vIj}.  Cf. {lolSeHcha} "attitude-control thrusters" 
and {'eDSeHcha} "take-off/landing thrusters" -- both also apparently 
inherently plural nouns.

Another useful verb WRT thrusters is {vo'} "propel".
