  • Timing Belt Interference Caution Note: Camshaft
    Carmax 6067 170 Turnpike Rd Westborough, MA 01581 YMMS: 1991 Chevrolet Lumina Z34 Sep 3, 2020 Engine: 3.4L Eng License: VIN: Odometer: TIMING BELT INTERFERENCE CAUTION NOTE: CAMSHAFT DRIVE BELTS OR TIMING BELTS - The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. 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.

  • Software Controlled Stepping Valve System for a Modern Car Engine
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Manufacturing 8 ( 2017 ) 525 – 532 14th Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing, GCSM 3-5 October 2016, Stellenbosch, South Africa Software Controlled Stepping Valve System for a Modern Car Engine I. Zibania, R. Marumob, J. Chumac and I. Ngebanid.* a,b,dUniversity of Botswana, P/Bag 0022, Gaborone, Botswana cBotswana International University of Science and Technology, P/Bag 16, Palapye, Botswana Abstract To address the problem of a piston-valve collision associated with poppet valve engines, we replaced the conventional poppet valve with a solenoid operated stepping valve whose motion is perpendicular to that of the piston. The valve events are software controlled, giving rise to precise intake/exhaust cycles and improved engine efficiency. Other rotary engine models like the Coates engine suffer from sealing problems and possible valve seizure resulting from excessive frictional forces between valve and seat. The proposed valve on the other hand, is located within the combustion chamber so that the cylinder pressure help seal the valve. To minimize friction, the valve clears its seat before stepping into its next position. The proposed system was successfully simulated using ALTERA’s QUARTUS II Development System. A successful prototype was built using a single piston engine. This is an ongoing project to eventually produce a 4-cylinder engine. ©© 2017 201 6Published The Authors. by Elsevier Published B.V.

  • Timing Belt Training
    Timing Belt Training © 2019 Dayco IP Holdings, LLC | Confidential information of Dayco (or an affiliate); copying and/or unauthorized use prohibited. History of the Timing Belt The lineage of the timing belt can be traced back all the way to the 1940’s when a sewing machine manufacturer replaced its noisy and expensive timing chain with a rubber timing belt. After several decades and various material and profile changes, the timing belt was introduced to the automobile. In 1961, GLAS, introduced the S 1004 which became the first production car credited with using a timing belt. Timing belts were introduced to American vehicles when Pontiac manufactured the first belt driven engine in the mid-1960’s. While trends in the automotive industry have fluctuated to and from the use of the timing belt, it offers several advantages over the timing chain. Some advantages of the timing belt are that it does not require lubrication like the timing chain, it is lighter, less expensive, and operates more quietly reducing engine noise. What is a Timing Belt? A timing belt synchronizes the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft(s) ensuring the proper timing and allows the engine’s valves to open and close during each cylinder’s firing. The operation of this belt is critical in preventing the pistons from striking the valves causing damage in an ‘interference’ engine. This rubber belt is inside the engine behind the external belt drives. It is important to note that a timing belt should be changed at the OE Manufacturer’s recommended replacement mileage found in the vehicle’s owner’s manual.

A. de Boer Dipl. -Ing. S. Wohlgemuth Thomas Roodink s1501623 [email protected] Introductory remarks In the summer season of 2016 I was allowed to do a six month internship within the research department of Audi Sport in Neckarsulm Germany. A dream came true after Le Mans 2015 when I offered my curriculum vitae to Mr. Baretzky, head of the engine department of Audi Sport. I want to thank him deeply for giving me the opportunity to be part of his team. Moreover, I want to thank Prof. Dr. Ir. A. de Boer of the University of Twente for the great support during the internship and for his flexibility before the start of the internship. A very special thanks goes to Dipl. -Ing. S. Wohlgemuth of the engine research department of Audi Sport for sharing his great knowledge, passion and support. “There is no such thing as cam design, there is only valve lift profile design which requires the creation of a cam and follower mechanism to reliably provide this designed valve lift profile.” G.
