Finished Archives

Here is how the two styles of archives I've done so far.
I don't think looks are that important.
Just getting it to readable, and fairly compact is key here.
Dates are kinda open to me, you know the month and year from the file your
looking at.  On the GMECM that I already have done it's one file to the
dates are intact.

I know, John said wait, but I wanted to have the first post in the
archive...

Now that the ice is broken, I just gotta get in.
Since it might be easiest to nominate, and select at bin to work
on at this point, anyone got any nominees?.

I have the 93 Z28 A4 code, but I am sure most know that by now.
I figure I will finish it pretty soon (at least the important stuff),

Yes this is true. The valve spring must be strong enough to overcome the
inertia of the moving valve assembly. At high speeds the effective valve
spring force is reduced due to the phenomenon above. A obvious solution is
to increase the spring force but this increases the wear rate at the cam -
follower interface and indeed this can be a limiting factor as engine speeds
reach the stratosphere. For this reason, pneumatic valve springs allow lower
spring rates to be used for a given rpm ceiling, or alternatively allow
higher rpms to be used for a given allowable spring rate. I really should
have said valve float is indirectly caused by valve spring resonance. A
reference is an article in Racecar Engineering, Vol 3, No 4 Page 21.

Since last year, VW uses a Weber/Marelli system on the new 1.6l engine,
a Motronic on the new 1.4l. No idea why they use so many different
systems at a time...
