Variable Valve Timing isn’t a new concept in motorcycle engines. The likes of BMW and Yamaha have been using this setup in their motorcycles for a while now. Even Suzuki itself implemented it on the ...
Hidden mechanical risks: On some engines, a VVT solenoid trouble code may actually indicate rocker arm or camshaft wear, not just an electrical fault. Common failure signs: Symptoms include check ...
When it comes to eight-cylinder gas engines, GM has some twisted engineers who are hard at work in its labs. No, they're not crazy, unless you consider the almost fanatical obsession they have with ...
Variable valve timing (VVT) and variable valve lift (VVL) have very similar names, both referring to variable valve performance. Does that mean that they are basically the same thing? The are most ...
QUESTIONI'm in the process of transplanting an L77 from a 2012 Caprice 9C1 PPV [police pursuit vehicle] along with its 6L80E [six-speed, longitudinally mounted electronic automatic overdrive ...
The first production car engine with variable valve timing (VVT) came from Alfa Romeo in 1980. It was installed in the fuel-injected Alfa Romeo Spider. Before this, a few experimental systems existed, ...
What P0022 means: Indicates Bank 2 intake camshaft is lagging behind commanded timing, typically in engines with VVT systems. Likely culprits: Low or degraded oil, clogged or faulty VVT solenoids, ...
Since the beginning of hot rodding, gearheads have endeavored to increase the performance of internal combustion engines through the optimization of valve timing. It's been proven time after time that ...
