Engine Compression refers to the pressure your engine generates inside the cylinders, while it’s running.
Firstly, low compression can be caused by a number of different issues resulting in engine misfires. Secondly, let’s say you have ruled out ignition and fuel delivery, as the cause of the engine misfire. Consequently, […]
Oil consumption is something nobody wants. But, worn engine bearings can make it even worse ? Engine oil consumption past rings, will only get worse, when engine bearings begin to wear out. So, oil consumption […]
Valve Springs, have a very basic job, but how they do it, is very important. By the time they have 100,000 miles on them, they have probably lost up to 10%, of their tension. The […]
Doing a compression test, is a good way to measure the condition of, the rings, cylinders, and valves. So, if your engine is running rough or is lacking power, consider doing a compression test. Also, […]
Firstly, a running dynamic compression test, confirms how effective each cylinder is, at pulling air in. Secondly, holding it for the correct amount of time, then letting it go, into the exhaust. So, if a […]
Valves and piston rings, are crucial for your engine to function properly. Aside from your head gasket, these are the parts that are responsible for, sealing the combustion chamber. Most of the time, valves and […]
Engine piston rings, have the most important job, of sealing the combustion chamber. So, they need to ensure that, no oil reaches the combustion chamber, while keeping the compression in the cylinder. Most engine piston […]
The engine power balance test, can be a great way to pinpoint a cylinder, that’s under performing. Most importantly, a cylinder that is not working as well as, the other cylinders in the engine. The […]
After you have done a basic compression test, the next step is a wet compression test. Above all, an engine’s cylinders need a good seal, between the rings and the cylinder walls. Also, between the […]
Doing the cylinder leak down test; especially in conjunction with a compression test; should allow you to quickly determine the basic condition of any engine. A compression test is a dynamic test (engine moving), a […]
What is engine misfiring and what are the main causes. Engine misfiring, is bad, so it’s best to find the problem and fix it as soon as possible. Because, engine misfiring reduces gas mileage and […]
All engines require three things to start and run, spark, fuel and compression. So, if any one of these is missing, your engine will not start. With a engine will not start issue, the possible […]
