WEAR OF FUNCTIONAL PAIRS OF A GASOLINE ENGINE COMBUSTION CHAMBER

Gasoline combustion engine is generally the most important part of a car. With this driving unit the car achieves the best ratio between its fuel utilization and weight. In order to comply with required parameters, such as performance, ecology and economy of combustion engines, their regular service inspections and associated maintenance operations must be followed. For testing the operability of these engines, especially for testing the wear of functional pairs of the combustion chamber, we use various methods. The paper deals with detection of wear of combustion engine functional pairs and with subsequent comparison of obtained values with the values declared by the manufacturer. The measurements were carried out on a Suzuki gasoline engine G13BA with a cubature of 1298 cm3 and a total mileage of 160,000 km.
