  2. Deglazing (engine mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deglazing_(engine_mechanics)

    If the cylinder walls are too smooth, this wear will not occur, with the rings "skating" over the polished surface. [1] In order to correct the situation, a mechanic can take the engine apart, and deglaze the cylinders, usually using an abrasive.

  3. Bore (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_(engine)

    Engine displacement is calculated based on bore, stroke length and the number of cylinders: [1] displacement = π ( ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × bore ) 2 × stroke × n cylinders. The stroke ratio, determined by dividing the bore by the stroke, traditionally indicated whether an engine was designed for power at high engine speeds or torque at lower engine ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_GZ_engine

    The 1GZ-FE is a 4,996 cc (5.0 L) 48-valve DOHC V12 engine with variable valve timing ().Bore is 81 mm and stroke is 80.8 mm, with a compression ratio of 10.5:1. The official power output advertised in Japan per the gentlemen's agreement is 206 kW (276 hp; 280 PS) at 5,200 rpm, though it was advertised as 220 kW (295 hp; 299 PS) in export markets.

  5. Cylinder head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_head

    This is also common for motorcycles, and such head/cylinder components are referred to as barrels. Some engines, particularly medium- and large-capacity diesel engines built for industrial, marine, power generation, and heavy traction purposes (large trucks, locomotives, heavy equipment, etc.) have individual cylinder heads for each cylinder ...

  6. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    Operating cycle for a four-stroke engine Operation of a flat-twin engine Operation of a straight-four engine. Although some components within the engine (such as the connecting rods) have complex motions, all motions can be separated into reciprocating and rotating components, which assists in the analysis of imbalances.

  7. Desmodromic valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmodromic_valve

    These avoided resonance but were ungainly to locate inside cylinder heads. Valve springs that do not resonate are progressive, wound with varying pitch or varying diameter called beehive springs [15] from their shape. The number of active coils in these springs varies during the stroke, the more closely wound coils being on the static end ...

  8. Daimler V8 engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daimler_V8_engines

    V-8 engines were produced by the Daimler Company in displacements of 2.5 L (153 cu in) (1959-1968) and 4.5 L (275 cu in) (1959-1968). Designed for Daimler by Edward Turner, they were initially used in the SP250 sports car and the Majestic Major saloon respectively; ultimately, the 2.5 L was mostly used in the Daimler 2.5 V8 (later named V8-250) saloon made with Jaguar Mark 2 unit bodies from ...

  9. Chrysler Slant-6 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Slant-6_engine

    The 225 used the RG (tall) block with a 3 + 2 ⁄ 5 in (86.4 mm) bore, a 4 + 1 ⁄ 8 in (104.8 mm) stroke and 6.699 in (170.2 mm) connecting rods, for an actual displacement of 224.7 cu in (3.7 L). This undersquare geometry was a departure from the emerging trend towards oversquare engines.
