Engine Timing
Timing belt failure, can cause catastrophic engine damage. But, timing belt failure, can be avoided, by keeping the timing belt, in good operating condition. So, timing belt failure, has always been a topic, no one […]
Crankshaft position sensors (CKP) read ignition timing, the (RPM) signal, and determine engine speed. But, when the crankshaft position sensor (CKP) fails, it stops transmitting the readings. Consequently, the crankshaft position sensors (CKP) readings, contain […]
So, timing belts-chains or gears, all perform the same function. Consequently, their job is to synchronize, the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft. But, despite having the same functionality, timing belts-chains or gears, are unique […]
When a Crankshaft – Camshaft Position Sensor goes BAD, your vehicle will not start. Distributorless ignition systems (DIS) require a crankshaft position sensor (CKP), and sometimes a camshaft position sensor (CMP). So, the main difference […]
Crankshaft position sensors, produce a signal that; talks to the fuel injection computer or the ignition control module. Consequently, providing the exact position of the pistons, as they come up or go down in the […]
Variable valve timing (VVT) systems, do exactly what they say, they vary the valve timing. Today, drivers want, a different reaction from the engine, through various RPMs. For example, at high RPMs, the driver may […]
So, the term, interference or non-interference engine, makes a big difference, if you ever have a timing problem. And, if you ever have a broken timing belt or chain !! The cost of repairs for […]
Top Dead Center (TDC) refers to, the point when the piston is at the absolute top of its stroke. So, a piston can be at Top Dead Center (TDC), on the compression stroke or on […]
(VVT) Variable Valve Timing, is a 2-stage, hydraulically controlled cam phasing system. So, as engine technologies improve and become less expensive; (VVT) variable valve timing, continues to improve performance and economy. Manufacturers have now adopted, […]
A timing belt is one of those things, that’s critical to replace; according to the auto manufacturer’s schedule. Timing belt replacement is most often, between every 75,000 and 100,000 miles. So, check your owner’s manual, […]
So, the advantage of (VVT) – variable valve timing, is that all the factors traditionally associated with; a given camshaft grind, are no longer fixed. As a result, making it possible to change valve timing; […]
Your engine needs proper ignition timing, to ignite the fuel, at exactly the right time. But, what happens if, the ignition system fires, at the wrong time. Consequently, the fuel-and-air mixture, will not be burned […]
