  2. Valve timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_timing

    The valve timing of a diesel engine also depends on tappet clearance of the inlet and exhaust valves. If tappet clearance is less, then valve will open early and close late. [2] If tappet clearance is more, then valve will open late and close early. Tappet clearance is measured by an instrument called feeler gauge.

  3. Feeler gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feeler_gauge

    Feeler gauge set (25 pieces, 0.03~1.0 mm measurement range) Measuring the valve clearance of a DOHC engine, between camshaft and tappet (here: 0.004 in ≈ 0.10 mm). A feeler gauge is a tool used to measure gap widths. Feeler gauges are mostly used in engineering to measure the clearance between two parts. [1]

  4. Two-stroke power valve system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_power_valve_system

    The Honda Revolution Control valve is designed and works in principle like the "AETC system." A small computer monitors engine RPM and adjusts a two-blade exhaust valve with an electric servo. Honda equipped many two-stroke motorcycles such as the NSR125 and NSR250 models with RC - Valve power plants.

  5. Hydraulic tappet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_tappet

    A hydraulic tappet, also known as a hydraulic valve lifter or hydraulic lash adjuster, is a device for maintaining zero valve clearance in an internal combustion engine. Conventional solid valve lifters require regular adjusting to maintain a small clearance between the valve and its rocker or cam follower .

  6. Hydraulic clearance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_clearance

    Leakage in narrow clearance, spool valve. Hydraulic clearance. Flow in narrow clearances are of vital importance in hydraulic system component design. The flow in a narrow circular clearance of a spool valve can be calculated according to the formula below if the height is negligible compared to the width of the clearance, such as most of the clearances in hydraulic pumps, hydraulic motors ...

  7. Tappet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tappet

    A tappet or valve lifter is a valve train component which converts rotational motion into linear motion in activating a valve. It is most commonly found in internal combustion engines , where it converts the rotational motion of the camshaft into linear motion of intake and exhaust valves, either directly or indirectly.

  8. Rotary valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_valve

    A rotary valve (also called rotary-motion valve) is a type of valve in which the rotation of a passage or passages in a transverse plug regulates the flow of liquid or gas through the attached pipes. [1] The common stopcock is the simplest form of rotary valve. Rotary valves have been applied in numerous applications, including:

  9. Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harley-Davidson_Milwaukee...

    In 2016, the Milwaukee-Eight engines became available on Touring and Trike models of the 2017 model year. The Softail models started using the Milwaukee-Eight the following year. The most significant change from the Twin Cam are the two extra valves per cylinder head which produce 10 percent more torque.
