If the cylinder heads are on the engine, you will need to add air pressure to the cylinder to hold the valves in place. Our example is the Craftsman 47089 compression test kit using the 14mm long ...

Before starting this valvespring story I thought I had a grasp of its mechanics, but then as it developed it became ever more complicated until it reached a point where I doubted if I had any ...

Obviously, these valve-control-related issues, associated with insufficient valvespring pressure, are the reason why camshaft manufacturers offer valvespring upgrades. The obvious answer might seem to ...

While the engineering community continues to explore the benefits of electric and hybrid vehicles—i.e., the environmental and renewable energy factors—the automotive market is still dependent on ...
