  2. Ignition timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_timing

    Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.

  3. Variable valve timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_valve_timing

    Variable valve timing (VVT) is the process of altering the timing of a valve lift event in an internal combustion engine, and is often used to improve performance, fuel economy or emissions. It is increasingly being used in combination with variable valve lift systems.

  4. Engine tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_tuning

    Vintage engine testing equipment that can test ignition timing, ignition dwell, manifold vacuum and exhaust emissions. Engine tuning is the adjustment or modification of the internal combustion engine or Engine Control Unit (ECU) to yield optimal performance and increase the engine's power output, economy, or durability. These goals may be ...

  5. Variable camshaft timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_camshaft_timing

    For twin-cam or DOHC engines, VCT was used on either the intake or exhaust camshaft. (Engines that have VCT on both camshafts are now designated as Ti-VCT.↓) The use of variable camshaft timing on the exhaust camshaft is for improved emissions, and vehicles with VCT on the exhaust camshaft do not require exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) as retarding the exhaust cam timing achieves the same ...

  6. Valve timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_timing

    In four-stroke cycle engines and some two-stroke cycle engines, the valve timing is controlled by the camshaft. It can be varied by modifying the camshaft, or it can be varied during engine operation by variable valve timing. It is also affected by the adjustment of the valve mechanism, and particularly by the tappet clearance.

  7. Variator (variable valve timing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variator_(variable_valve...

    The Alfa Romeo Twin Spark engine, introduced in the 1987 Alfa Romeo 75, also uses variable valve timing. [3] [4] The Alfa system varies the phase (not the duration) of the cam timing and operates on the inlet camshaft. [5] Alfa Romeo's variator is a cylindrical chamber that contains a pressure chamber and piston along with helical splines.

  8. Active valve control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_valve_control_system

    The active valve control system (AVCS) is an automobile variable valve timing technology used by Subaru. It varies the timing of the valves by using hydraulic oil pressure to rotate the camshaft, known as "phasing", [1] in order to provide optimal valve timing for engine load conditions. The system is closed loop using the camshaft sensors ...

  9. Variable valve lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_valve_lift

    Furthermore, both systems can also be combined with BMW DIVA (Differentiated Variable Air Intake) system which is the world's first continuously variable length intake manifold. As of 2017 BMW is the only company which can implement all three Variable Valve Timing, Lift and Intake Manifold in continuous adjustment form on production car.
