Inline 4 Cylinder
What does OHV stand for
An overhead valve engine
What stroke draws an air-fuel mixture in
The intake stroke
This links the piston to the crankshaft
The connecting rod
Engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons
Short Block
Cylinders on opposite sides of the crankshaft
Opposed Engine
An overhead camshaft engine
What stroke compresses the air-fuel mixture
The compression stroke
This transfers the pressure of combustion
The piston
Top of the block surrounding the cylinders
Deck Surface
2 Banks of cylinders at an angle to each other
V-Type Engine
What does SOHC stand for
A single overhead camshaft engine
What strok removes the burned gases from the engine
The exhaust stroke
This allows the piston to swing on the connecting rod
The piston pin, or wrist pin
Holds the crankshaft in place
Main bearing caps
2 Banks of cylinders at an angle to each other, with the cylinders in each bank offset
W-Type Engine
What does DOHC stand for
A dual overhead camshaft engine
A stroke when the air-fuel mixture burns and pushes the piston down with tremendous force
The power stroke
These seal the clearance between the outside of the piston and the cylinder wall
The piston rings
Large round holes machined in the block for pistons
Cylinders
An engine named after a breakfast food
Opposed Engine(Pancake Engine)
What is it called when the PCM adjusts the valve timing
Variable valve timing system
How many revolutions must the crankshaft rotate to complete the four-stroke cycle?
Two
This covers and encloses the top of the cylinders
