- Air Intake
-
- Diesel engines mix
- air with fuel to
- optimize the
- air-to-fuel ratio
- for the most
- powerful
- combustion. This
- is done by means of
- an air intake
- valve. When the
- engine completes
- its exhaust stroke,
- the air intake
- valve opens to
- allow the free
- passage of air into
- the cylinder until
- the optimal mixture
- has been attained.
