    ENG-04, Camshaft Belt / Balance Shaft Belt - General Information, Maintenance Intervals, Part Numbers Maintenance Intervals Timing belts have long been the source of many heated discussions and much heartache for 944 owners. Every new or potential 944 owner should read Jim Pasha's article, 944 Timing Belts and Water Pumps in the August 1994 issue of Excellence Magazine. Due to the history of changes in the factory recommendations for timing belt replacement, you'll find a number of different recommendations being given. The recommendations below are based on the most recent factory recommendations with some additional guidance based on personal experience. 944 Mileage Maintenance 2000 Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts. 15000* Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts. 30000 Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts Replace timing and balance shaft belts. Inspect rollers and replace if 45000 necessary. * For vehicles which see limited service, I recommend inspecting the belts after two years if 15000 miles has not been reached and annually thereafter. 968 Mileage Maintenance 15000 Inspect timing and balance shaft belts. 30000* Inspect timing and balance shaft belts. 45000 Inspect timing and balance shaft belts Replace timing and balance shaft belts. Inspect rollers and replace if 60000 necessary. * For vehicles which see limited service, I recommend inspecting the belts after two years if 15000 miles has not been reached and annually thereafter. Parts For highlighted items choose one of the parts based on specific model.

  • Balance Shaft Sprocket Installation and Alignment Check
    ENG-08, Balance Shaft Sprocket Installation and Alignment Check Introduction If your 944 is experiencing vibration problems, the cause could be a balance shaft misalignment. This can occur if the balance shaft belt slips a tooth, the balance shaft belt is broken, or if the balance shaft sprockets are installed incorrectly. Quite often, balance shaft sprocket misalignment occurs after water pump, crankshaft oil seal, or balance shaft oil seal replacement. The following procedure will tell you how to correctly install the balance shaft sprockets and how to check them for proper alignment if you suspect that the sprockets may have been installed incorrectly. Other Procedures Needed • ENG-13, Locating and Setting Engine to Top Dead Center (TDC), Cylinder 1 Installation Each balance shaft sprocket has two slotted grooves on the inside diameter. One of the grooves on the sprocket will slide onto a woodruff key which is inserted into a slot near the front end of the balance shaft. On 1983 and 1984 model 944s, each balance shaft sprocket was stamped on the front with an "O" (Ober or Over) beside one of the slotted grooves and a "U" (Unter or Under) beside the other slotted groove. As one might have guessed, on the upper balance shaft, the groove with the "O" stamped beside it was installed onto the woodruff key, and on the lower balance shaft, the groove with the "U" stamped beside it was installed onto the woodruff key. I'm not sure what prompted Porsche to do it but, on cars produced after 1984, only the slotted groove with the "O" was stamped.

  • A Model-Based Design Approach to Redesign a Crankshaft for Powder Metal Manufacturing
    A model-based design approach to redesign a crankshaft for powder metal manufacturing VASILEIOS ANGELOPOULOS Master of Science Thesis Stockholm, Sweden 2015 A model-based design approach to redesign a crankshaft for powder metal manufacturing VASILEIOS ANGELOPOULOS Master of Science Thesis MMK 2015:100 MKN 154 KTH Industrial Engineering and Management Machine Design SE-100 44 STOCKHOLM Examensarbete MMK 2015:100 MKN 154 En modellbaserad designstrategi att omkonstruera en vevaxel för pulvermetallurgi Angelopoulos Vasileios Godkänt Examinator Handledare 2015-11-08 Ulf Sellgren Stefan Björklund Uppdragsgivare Kontaktperson Höganäs ab Marcus Persson Sammanfattning En vevaxel är en motorkomponent som används för att omvandla den fram- och återgående rörelsen hos kolv och vevstake till en roterande rörelse. De klassiska metoderna att tillverka vevaxlar har varit dominerande och inte gett någon plats för alternativa tillverkningsmetoder. Powder manufacturing är en metod som kan revolutionera produktionens effektivitet och ekonomi. För att denna tillverkningsmetod ska vara möjlig måste vevaxeln tillverkas i delar. Webs, counter-weights och journal shafts måste produceras individuellt för att sedan sammanfogas. Den största utmaningen för denna avhandling är att förstå om vevaxelns counter webs kan tillverkas med samma form eller med så få olika former som möjligt. Denna avhandling handlar främst om att fastställa dessa tekniska krav och föreslå en ny, modulär design för PM. En kinematisk-kinetisk analys utförs med hjälp av en befintlig vevaxel som skannats och omvandlats till en CAD-modell. De numeriska värdena jämförs med en MBS-modell från Adams. Vevaxeln analyseras med avseende på balansering då motvikternas placering, massa och geometriska egenskaper undersöks. Nya modeller som följer de tekniska krav som krävs skapas och utvärderas med Pugh-matris.

  • Some Science of Balance © Tony Foale 2007
    Some science of balance © Tony Foale 2007. Readers who started riding before the 1970s, will easily remember the incredible vibration that we used to have to suffer, particularly with British single and twin cylinder machines. In addition to that, we also had to endure quite severe vibration from road shocks generally because of poor suspension. However, with the advent of the Japanese multi-cylinder machines, Lanchester balance shafts and the drive towards better suspension, today we can enjoy a much greater freedom from annoying vibration. In this article, we will only consider the vibration caused by the engine. This vibration has two basic sources, the least severe of which stems from the irregular torque output of reciprocating internal combustion engines. However, the biggest problem is due to the inability to balance inertia forces due to the piston motion in certain types of engine configuration. There can be two sources of mechanical imbalance, they are; rotating and reciprocating. Rotating balance Any rotating object can produce nett rotating forces if not properly balanced. Typical items of concern to us, would be the clutch assembly, alternators, flywheels and crankshaft. These out of balance forces are due to asymmetrical mass distribution about the rotating axis of the object in question. The clutch, alternators and any external flywheels can be fully balanced. However, due to the needs of reciprocating balance, certain configurations of engine, rarely allow us to achieve perfect rotating balance of the crankshaft, single cylinder engines, for example. There are two aspects of rotating balance which need to be considered. These are usually termed static and dynamic.
