In engines of this type admission of air to the cylinder is usually effected by piston controlled ports while the products of combustion are exhausted…
This is the simplest type of two-stroke engine in which both inlet and exhaust are controlled by ports in conjunction with a single piston. Inevitably…
In two-stroke engines combustion occurs in the region of top dead centre (TDC) of every revolution. Consequently gas exchange also has to be effected once…
Coolant is drawn into the inlet of the front cover and then flows from the water pump through the front cover to the crankcase. Coolant…

The bearing surfaces on the crankshaft are induction hardened. During the hardening process the surrounding areas of the crankshaft discolor. This condition is normal.
A single mass flywheel is used on the F-450/550 Superduty trucks. The single mass flywheel can be identified by the absence of the above mentioned…
The 6.0L Power Stroke uses two different flywheels for the manual transmission. A dual-mass flywheel is used on the F-250/350 Superduty truck. The dual-mass flywheel…
The geartrain for the crankshaft, camshaft, and high pressure pump are located in the rear of the engine under the rear cover. This allows the…
