so, I have been thinking (not always a good thing)
If an engine is basically an air pump, and the objective is to make it as close to 100 percent efficient, why is the exhaust valve so much smaller than the intake valve? Forget emmisions, forget fuel delivery, just want to understand why this is so...it is so on most engines... Rich |

electricity is like the waves of an ocean. or the current flowing down a stream The width of the stream is the voltage, the amount of water. the speed of the water, the force, is the amperage. Magnetism is the same thing as love or lust or the need to be close to someone. Light is the opposite of dark. Dark is black, light is white. |
