What else can I help you with?
What causes oil in the exhaust?
Broke rings on pistons
Clearance issues with Chevy 350 pistons hitting the crank?
If the pistons are hitting the crankshaft, either you have1. the wrong pistons (350 pistons are relatively short butit is possible to purchase pistons with the same bore but a longer skirt... in which case they would hit the crank)or2. the wrong crankshaft with too much "throw"
Why wont your car start and when it start why does it rattles?
Maybe Its The Muffler or the pistons hitting the engine
What it mean when your spark plug are loose?
possibily its the wrong plugs could be hitting the pistons
What is automotive crankshaft?
A shaft that connects the pistons through rods and rotates for Compression Exhaust and Intake of the enginge
You have had block bored 030 new flat top pistons stock rods cam is 465 lift intake 488 exhaust stock lifters pushrods after assembly you have exhuast valves hitting top of piston what is easy fix?
Most flat top pistons have notches cut in them to clear the valves. You could cut the notches deep enough to suit your cam or get a cam with less lift.
What are the different designs in pistons except for cylindrical one and why?
Some alternative designs for pistons include domed pistons, flat-top pistons, and dished pistons. These designs are used to alter the compression ratio of the engine, improve combustion efficiency, and achieve specific performance characteristics. Domed pistons can increase compression ratio for more power, flat-top pistons can improve flame propagation, and dished pistons can reduce compression ratio for better fuel efficiency.
How do you assemble pistons for 22R engine ie where do the grooves face inlet valves or exhaust valves?
same direction and forward.
Why does your crankshaft rotate only from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock even when the timing belt is off?
The pistons may be hitting the valves.
What are the symptoms of bad pistons in a Chevy 350?
If the pistons are bad it should be smoking a bright blue color out of the exhaust. Are if a piston skirt is broken it should be knocking all the time. If there is a whole burnt in the piston you will not have any compression on that cylinder. Most of the time pistons just don't go bad.
I Hear a knocking sound in your engine sounds like pistons are hitting something on a 1993 Ford Escort GT what can it be?
you may have trown a rod.
Do the cams push the pistons?
No, the camshafts do not push the pistons directly. Instead, they control the opening and closing of the engine's valves, which allows the air-fuel mixture to enter the combustion chamber and exhaust gases to exit. The pistons are moved by the combustion process within the cylinders, which is initiated by the ignition of the air-fuel mixture. The camshaft's timing is crucial for ensuring that the valves operate in sync with the pistons' movement.
