A draughtsman in my office many years ago was given the task of
engineering a VW motor for internal filming.

It really is a flame and not an explosion.

What no takers :think: there's no detention if its wrong
The answer is Yes
Also know as detonation or Pinking
Q+A Time again
But what causes detonation/Pinking ???

My guess on detonation is when there is too much compression causing the mixture to ignite before the spark has a chance to ignite. Not heard of pinking, so looking forward to hearing about what that is...

Hi Ray
Detonation and pinking are the same thing :thumbup:
The two main reasons for pinking/detonation are ignition timing and hot spots that can form on the cylinder head and valve bottoms due to carbon build up which we dont really see much of these days due to ever changing designs but go back to pre unleaded days you may have heard the saying its coaked up ??
we used to take the heads off valves out and wire drill the carbon off every thing
Kinda miss the old days :D
