  3. c. lifters (tappets)
  4. d. valve guide and/or pushrod
Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
A engine develops power output for each two engine revolution. * Your answer It is the difference in expansion amounts between the cylinder head and pushrod that effectively increases the space between the valve stem and the rocker's arm. * Your answer On a four-stroke cycle reciprocating engine, which strokes are both valves close? * Intake Power Ignition Compression Exhaust It represents the net power output of the engine at the crankshaft. * Your answer If the fuel/air ratio is proper and ignition timing is correct, the combustion process should be completed just after center at the beginning of the power stroke. * Your answer
1.) The valve timing is affected by (1) timing of the crankshaft and camshaft gears, (2) shape of the cam, and (3) tappet or rocker arm clearance. Simply discuss how each of the mentioned factors affects the timing of the valve. 2.) What is fuel combustion? How does it affect the performance of an engine? 3.) What is the power train of the wheel drive tractor? Discuss how power is transmitted from the engine to the wheels of the tractor.
Explain briefly 1. Valve lead 2. Intake lead 3. Exhaust lead
