knocking sound on idle?justkir said:its like a knocking sound, here and there....but while riding..the engine very smooth and soft feelings...
compression happens only on the top gasket.Azzurri said:1st thing you have to know is, gasket is a mechanical seal that fills the space between two objects, generally to prevent leakage between the two objects while under compression.
2nd if you remove it, can it increase compression while your block already leaking? huhu
if tik tik sound on idle but the sound is gone on rpm increasedphl6684 said:yes a bit something like that..
thanks justkir
Sorry, I'm a little bit confuse here... I thought the formula to calculate a cylindrical Volume was:haen said:100% correct mr. Paradox :
Let's refresh..
The static formula for computing compression ratio is :
CR = CV + CCV / CCV
CR = Compression Ratio
CCV = Combustion Chamber Volume --> the hardest part, any slight changes in the head / piston crown could make calculation harder so the best is using burette filled with liquid parafin
Assuming the pistons are flat top, formula for the volume above the piston is :
V= phi x D^2 x H / 4000
phi = 3.1416, D= diameter of the bore (mm), H= clearance between piston crown and block deck (mm)
Things to remember :
Higher comp = higher temps --> affecting valve durability
Higher comp = higher bearings load
road engine --> 9.5 - 10.5 : 1 ratio
racing engine --> 11 - 12.5 : 1 ratio
