Default VW Engine Wear Factors




*And, just where are the "poppet valves" on that engine......??????

Dear Reggie,

Perhaps you should re-read the msg. The Otto Cycle defines the
typical four-stroke combustion cycle. It has nothing to do with the
method of valving, which may use poppet valves, sleeve valves, ported
valves or a combination of the three.
