The basic way all internal combustion engines work is to take a mixture of fuel and air, compress it, ignite it either with a spark plug or by self- ignition (in the case of a diesel engine), allow the explosion of combusting gasses to force the piston back down and then expel the exhaust gas. The vertical movement of the piston is converted into rotary motion in the crank via connecting rods. The crank then goes out to the gearbox via a flywheel and clutch, and the gearbox sends the rotary motion to the wheels, driving the vehicle forwards. Reproduced by Speciss College with permission from Chris Longhurst www.carbibles.com 8 The diagram above illustrates these concepts. It shows an inline-4 engine with dual overhead cams. Engine layouts Here are some illustrations of the most common types of cylinder layout you'll find in engines today. Singles are typically used in motorbikes, chainsaws etc. V-twins are also found in motorbikes. Inline-fours are the mainstay of car engines, as well as being found in some motorbikes too such as the BMW K1200S. Inline fives used to be used a lot in Audis but have found a new home in current Volvos. The V5 is something you'll find in some VWs. The V6 has the benefits of being smoother than an inline-four but Reproduced by Speciss College with permission from Chris Longhurst www.carbibles.com 9 without the fuel economy issues of a V8. Boxer engines are found in BMW motorbikes (twins) and Porsches and Subarus (fours and sixes). The difference between 4 stroke and 2 stroke engines Almost every car sold today has a 4 stroke engine. So do a lot of motorbikes, lawnmowers, and other mechanical equipment. But 2 stroke engines are often found in smaller motorbikes, smaller lawnmowers, etc. The difference between the two engine types is the number of times the piston moves up and down in the cylinder for a single combustion cycle. A combustion cycle is the entire process of sucking fuel and air into the piston, igniting it and expelling the exhaust. Spark-ignition engine components Basic engine The cylinder head attaches to the cylinder block. components A gasket makes a seal between them. Some cylinder blocks have passages to carry oil and coolant. 4 & 2-stroke Ports in the cylinder head or walls carry air-fuel engine mixture and exhaust gases. In 4-stroke engines, differences valves open and close the ports. A rocker arm acts on a valve spring to operate the valve. Engine cams & A cam is a lobe on a camshaft, shaped to camshaft control how the valve opens and closes. The camshaft keeps all of the valves working with the correct timing and in the correct sequence. Engine power Power can be transferred from the crankshaft to transfer the camshaft by timing gears, a timing chain running on sprockets, or a timing belt running on toothed pulleys. 2-stroke power The crankcase is the lower part of the cylinder transfer block. In a 2-stroke gasoline engine, air-fuel mixture flows through a transfer port from the crankcase to the combustion chamber.

Although some manufacturers do not recommend replacement at a specified mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling". Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or replacement at 50,000- 60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules shown in this section reflect these changes. Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any of the following conditions exist: Crack Or Tears In Belt Surface Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth Oil Contamination Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners Incorrect Tension Adjustment REMOVAL & INSTALLATION Tip: Timing belt CAUTION: For 1996-97 models, this application is an interference engine. Do not rotate camshaft or crankshaft when timing belt is removed, or engine damage may occur. NOTE: The camshaft timing procedure has been updated by TSB bulletin No. 47-61-34, dated December, 1994. REMOVAL Tip: timing 3.4 x motor 1. Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove air cleaner and duct assembly. Drain engine coolant. 2. Remove accelerator and cruise control cables from throttle body.

  • Adaption and Evaluation of Transversal Leaf Spring Suspension Design for a Lightweight Vehicle Using Adams /C Ar
    ADAPTION AND EVALUATION OF TRANSVERSAL LEAF SPRING SUSPENSION DESIGN FOR A LIGHTWEIGHT VEHICLE USING ADAMS /C AR FLORIAN CHRIST Master Thesis in Vehicle Engineering Vehicle Dynamics Aeronautical and Vehicle Engineering Royal Institute of Technology TRITA-AVE 2015:09 ISSN 1651-7660 Adaption and Evaluation of Transversal Leaf Spring Suspension Design for a Lightweight Vehicle using Adams/Car FLORIAN CHRIST © Florian Christ, 2015. Vehicle Dynamics Department of Aeronautical and Vehicle Engineering Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan SE-100 44 Stockholm Sweden ii Abstract This investigation deals with the suspension of a lightweight medium-class vehicle for four passengers with a curb weight of 1000 kg. The suspension layout consists of a transversal leaf spring and is supported by an active air spring which is included in the damper. The lower control arms are replaced by the leaf spring ends. Active ride height control is introduced to compensate for different vehicle load states. Active steering is applied using electric linear actuators with steer-by wire design. Besides intense use of light material the inquiry should investigate whether elimination of suspension parts or a lighter component is concordant with the stability demands of the vehicle. The investigation is based on simulations obtained with MSC Software ADAMS/Car and Matlab. The suspension is modeled in Adams/Car and has to proof it's compliance in normal driving conditions and under extreme forces. Evaluation criteria are suspension kinematics and compliance such as camber, caster and toe change during wheel travel in different load states. Also the leaf spring deflection, anti-dive and anti-squat measures and brake force distribution are investigated.

  • Installation Instructions Cloyes® 3-Keyway Crank Sprockets
    February 2, 2009 Installation Instructions Cloyes ® 3-Keyway Crank Sprockets The Cloyes® Patented 3-Keyway crank sprocket allows adjustment of the crankshaft timing by ± 4°. Remember: The camshaft angle is half of the crankshaft angle, therefore the camshaft will correspondingly advance or retard by ± 2°. By changing the cam timing, enhancements to the camshaft characteristics can be achieved. For example, retarding the cam timing will increase high RPM horsepower, and advancing the cam timing will increase low-end torque. The following examples illustrate which timing mark is used with its corresponding keyway: GM and Chrysler Ford Retard keyway To retard the camshaft timing, use the timing mark on the crank sprocket and the retard keyway shown above. GM and Chrysler Ford Factory keyway For factory specified timing, use the Ο timing mark on the crank sprocket and the factory keyway shown above. GM and Chrysler Ford Advance keyway To advance the camshaft timing, use the ∆ timing mark on the crank sprocket and the advance keyway shown above. Notes: After determining which setting to use, we advise marking (with white marker or similar) the corresponding timing mark and keyway. This will make them easier to identify during installation. Some high performance camshafts are ground with advance or retard built in. In this case the cam manufacturer intends the cam to be set at the factory specified timing. Also, during and after installation, observe for any interference between the timing set and engine block. If interference is found, remove or grind that area of the block so adequate clearance is obtained. When removing a press fit crank sprocket, a proper pulling tool should be used.

  • Q1. How Does the Toe Angle of the Tires Affect the Acceleration of a Vehicle?
    Q1. How does the toe angle of the tires affect the acceleration of a vehicle? Ans:- The toe angle identifies the exact direction the tires are pointed compared to the centerline of the vehicle when viewed from directly above. Toe can also be used to alter a vehicle's handling traits. Increased toe-in will typically result in reduced oversteer, help steady the car and enhance high-speed stability. Increased toe-out will typically result in reduced understeer, helping free up the car, especially during initial turn-in while entering a corner. Q2.What is caster angle? What are the reasons behind giving a positive caster angle to the vehicle? Ans:- Castor angle is the angular displacement of the steering axis from the vertical axis of a steered wheel in a car, motorcycle, bicycle, other vehicle or a vessel, measured in the longitudinal direction. The purpose of this is to provide a degree of self-centering for the steering — the wheel casters around in order to trail behind the axis of steering. This makes a vehicle easier to control and improves its directional stability (reducing its tendency to wander). Positive caster increases negative camber when the wheels are turned due to the geometry of the suspension components. This is good for cornering as it maximizes the area of tire that is in contact with the ground on the outside front wheel, which is under the most load during the turn Q3. What is the reason behind brake-fade? Ans:- Brake fade is caused by a buildup of heat in the braking surfaces and the subsequent changes and reactions in the brake system components and can be experienced with both drum brakes and disc brakes.

  • Angles and Measurements 1
    Angles & Measurement Adjustments Camber Caster Ride Height Droop Roll Centers/Camber Gain CAMBER Camber aects the car’s side traction. Generally more negative camber means egative____Positive N increased grip in corners since the side-traction of the wheel increases. Adjust front camber so that the front tires wear flat. Adjust rear camber so that the rear tires wear slightly more on the inside. The amount of front camber required to maintain the maximum contact patch also depends on the amount of caster. Higher caster angles (more inclined) require less negative camber, while lower caster angles (more upright) require more negative camber. The amount of front camber required to maintain maximum tire contact largely depends on the amount of caster. A steeper caster angle requires more camber, while a shallower caster angle requires less camber. Front Camber Rear Camber More Negative Camber = More Steering More Negative Camber = Decreases Traction Entering and While Cornering Less Negative Camber = Less Steering Less Negative Camber = Increases Rear Traction Entering and While Cornering to a Point CASTER Caster describes the angle of the front steering block with respect to a line perpendicular to the ground. The primary purpose of having caster is to have a self-centering steering system. Caster angle aects on- and o-power steering, as it tilts the chassis more or less depending on how much caster is applied. It is generally recommended that you use a 10 steeper caster angle (more vertical) on slippery, inconsistent and rough surfaces, and use 5 1 a shallower caster angle (more inclined) on smooth, high-grip surfaces.
