How does a car reverse with a single belt?
A set of pulleys,one driven from the outside of the belt,one driven from the inside of the belt,on a double-sided v-belt. ($) Even a drive from the camshaft of the motor,which turns backwards from the engine,although at half speed. (Camshaft is direct gear driven on motor,no chain).
Can a single belt change direction of rotation?
Maybe you had more than one driven pulley and clutches to engage one or the other, with one having an extra gear to reverse rotation. I do not see how the direction of single belt rotation can change unless there is a gear and/or multiple shaft transmission between the engine and the tines.
When is the right time to change the cambelt?
When we say the right time of replacing the cambelt, there is no right time. It can be different for everyone, and it also depends on the car and your driving behavior. However, if you know the symptoms of a bad cambelt, you can surely take your car to a nearby repair point, and let the mechanic confirm.
What does the cambelt on a car do?
A cambelt as its name is a timing belt that controls the timing of the crankshaft and the camshaft. The rubber belt synchronizes the rotation of these two parts so the opening and closing of the valves to the cylinders can happen on time.
When to increase compression on a VW engine?
On a normal cylinder, compression should increase quickly and uniformly during each compression stroke of the engine until a top (or peak) reading is reached. If compression is low on the first stroke, builds up on the following strokes, but does not reach normal value, the piston rings may be worn or leaking.
What kind of torque converter do I need for Edelbrock Cam?
With an Edelbrock Performer RPM camshaft a 2,500 stall speed torque converter is recommended. Any torque converters with a stall range from 2,200 to 2,800 rpm would be acceptable. I want to run an RPM cam do my stock heads need to be modified to run this cam? Stock heads will need to be modified to run a Performer RPM camshaft.
When does the RPM go back to normal?
The RPM will usually go back to normal as you accelerate the vehicle, but will increase again after you stop. This is definitely not a normal situation. If you are experiencing a rough idle or your RPM is running high, then there are a variety of reasons for why this could be happening.
