Hi guys I have heard the dreaded rattling sound from my 83 650 and I am identifying it as the alternator chain tensioner issue....my question has anyone posted on this before and is it possible to replace it without stripping down the engine....if you could direct me on this would be great....thanks

Think about it: you supply gasoline to each cylinder and fire every one of the 8. Every cylinder exerts its force onto the crank and will do the same work as the other 7. Some extra losses will result from mechanical linkages to connect the two cranks, but when you double the number of cylinders, burn double the amount of fuel, you get double the power. Oh, I think it's much simpler than that. It's not about whether it's better. It's not about whether it adds more horespower. It's not about efficiency or losses. It's not about how much gas goes into the cylinder. It's not about whether the cylinder gets fired. It's not about how much work the piston is doing. Engine displacement and power are unrelated. Engine displacement is literally only a measurement of the total volume that the cylinders displace when moving through their cycle, nothing more. In medicine, you'll hear doctors say "Give the patient 10ccs of X". It's the volume of a syringe's displacement (a plastic piston). In cooking, we know the displacement of jars of pickles or measuring cups. And it's called for by the recipe. That's all CCs mean. A measurement of volume. That task you perform with that measurement, what you do with that volume (fill with gas-air mixture and ignite, fill with medicine and inject, or fill with sugar and pour) doesn't change the volume. Francisco Gomez <cum.gome...@gmail.com>: Jan 20 09:17AM -0400 Ok, on the case of volume you are sure, displacement volume is as you say, but front the point of view of performance is a 750 8 cyl Thanks a lot for this good conversation, time ago that I do not need to investigate about some technical matter Best regards El jue., 20 de enero de 2022 05:35, MattsAwesomeStuff < MattsAwesomeStuff <mattsawesomest...@gmail.com>: Jan 21 01:52AM -0700 > but front the point of view of performance is a 750 8 cyl Hmm, no definitely not that either. >From the point of performance, it would depend how much horsepower and torque you can get out of it, and how much it weighs. It would depend on what you had to do to get that power to the wheel. >From a "What's the engine so I can compare it to other engines and how powerful they are" perspective, it's a 1500cc 8cyl. As others have commented, you seem to mistakenly believe each cylinder is 750ccs. They are not. The 4 of them add up to a total of 750ccs. So, 8 of them add up to 1500ccs. A "750cc 8cylinder" would be doubly mistaken and leave the wrong impression of what the engine is for both displacement and imagined performance.

Sorry for this requirement but in my side the internet is very low and intermittent, it is very difficult to surf in it Thanks for your understanding in this matter El jue., 20 de enero de 2022 09:24, Francisco Gomez <cum.gome...@gmail.com> escribió: Back to top You received this digest because you're subscribed to updates for this group.
