A buddy of mine who has his own plane sent this link to me knowing I would find it interesting due to the great similarities between air-cooled aviation engines and the ones in our cars.
It is long, but very informative. Touches on burnt valves, cylinder/case cracks, etc. Teaser - the first 15 minutes or so explains why compression tests are close to worthless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NnOYvOlMB8 |
