Understanding compression ratio An engine requires fuel, compression and ignition (spaA) to run, On a given engine. S he higher the compression ratio, the more densely packed the air/fuel mixture (intake charge) becomes.This means the explosion* of the intake charge (once ignited by the spade) that moves the piston downward becomes morepowerful Compression ratio is a term often tossed around, but what does it realty mean? It s best described as the ratio of cySnder volume when the piston is at its furthest point of downward travel in the bore as oor^sared to the volume when the piston is at the ftghest point of travel in the bore- Mostgasoine engines today operate with a ratio of between 8.5:1 and 11:1. Whae medhancaf'compression ratio, as described here, is a good baseline comparator, once the engine is running, numerous other factors come into play, including the engines ability to efficiently move air/fuel in and spent exhaust gases out. It is therefore possible - and ficefy - to have two engines with the same compression ratio developing different cylinder pressures.

Get to know your wireless phone and its features, such as speed dial, redial and voice mail. 2. Use a hands-free device. Headsets allow drivers to keep both hands on the wheel while talking. 3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. 4. Let the person you are speaking with know if you are driving, it helps keep calls brief. 5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Use pre-set numbers for voiceactivated or speed dialing. 6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. 7.
