THE ELECTRONICS ON THE MOTORCYCLE

ELECTRONICS ON A MOTORCYCLERevved the motor, the motorcycle abruptly jumped up and rushed forward. The neighbouring village was what half a kilometer, as suddenly go haywire motor… to Prevent such surprises helps electronics. The bike is equipped with an electronic ignition system that significantly reduces the load on the breaker contacts, and the increase in spark energy allows the engine to work reliably in the lean combustible mixtures.

THE ARRANGEMENT OF THE GARAGE

CONSTRUCTION GARAGEGarage for car enthusiast is not only a roof for cars, but also a place where we have to spend a lot of time: it is necessary to embellish the body, oil change, and even to engage in serious repair.

Today, the editorial staff returns to this theme and offers its readers an article by A. Godyna from the city of Astrakhan.

UNDER CONTROL — CAMBER

UNDER CONTROL — CAMBERInfringement of corners of forward wheels of cars leads to unpleasant consequences: increasing the load on the steering wheel, the difficult control of the car, there is an intensive unilateral wear of a protector of tires: when you increase the camber wears out faster outside, lower — inside. Therefore, as soon as the above symptoms, you should not shelving them to check and the corresponding adjustment of the camber angles.

FORCING THE “D”

FORCING Device for Dismounting of bearings is shown in figure 13. They are as follows: from the bearing, remove the separator, pushing the balls enter between the collars of the bearing lugs is rotated 90° and in this position zakanchivaut nuts. Screw compress the bearing from the trunnion of the crankshaft. The demolition is over.

FORCING THE “D”

FORCING Bike engines D-5 is familiar to many designers and Amateurs. On their basis build different machines: microvesicle and motology, microaerobic and motonarty. Often readers turn to us with questions about the increase in power bike engines. We will try to describe the main methods of speeding up the engines D-5 and D-6 (to try to force the engine D-4 is not recommended, as this will require significant additional alterations, replacements, cylinders, crankshaft and other parts).

WE CATCH THE MOMENT OF IGNITION

CATCH THE TIMINGMotorists know how important it is for diesel internal combustion engines proper installation of the moment of ignition — the ignition spark of the spark fuel in the cylinder before the end of the compression stroke. In theory it should occur exactly at the end of this cycle. In practice, use a small spark advance below the maximum dissipation was carried out at the beginning of the next measure — extension. Otherwise you will not get far: the motor is getting “greedy”, but “pulls” very bad.

FRONT AXLE GOVERN ITSELF

FRONT AXLE GOVERN HIMSELFFRONT AXLE GOVERN HIMSELFThe car’s handling and tyre wear, as we know, primarily depends on the state of the front suspension of corners of a longitudinal inclination of axes of rotation, and angles of camber and toe. As a rule, adjustment of all these parameters produce on special stands at service stations, but in this case it is not always the adjustment will be optimal for a specific vehicle and specific conditions.
