an electrical circuit.
OUTPUT SHAFT: The shaft which transmits torque from a device, such as a
transmission. OVERHEAD VALVE (OHV): An engine configuration in which all of the
valves are located in the cylinder head
and the camshaft is located in the cylin-
der block. The camshaft operates the valves via lifters and pushrods.
OXIDES OF NITROGEN (NOx): Chemical compounds of nitrogen produced
as a byproduct of combustion. They combine with hydrocarbons to produce
smog.
OXYGEN SENSOR: Used with a feedback system to sense the presence of
oxygen in the exhaust gas and signal the computer which can use the voltage
signal to determine engine operating efficiency and adjust the air/fuel ratio.
PINION: The smaller of two gears. The rear axle pinion drives the ring gear
which transmits motion to the axle shafts.
PISTON RING: An open-ended ring which fits into a groove on the outer di-
ameter of the piston. Its chief function is to form a seal between the piston and
cylinder wall. Most automotive pistons have three rings: two for compression
sealing; one for oil sealing.
PRELOAD: A predetermined load placed on a bearing during assembly or by
adjustment.
PRESS FIT: The mating of two parts under pressure, due to the inner diam-
eter of one being smaller than the outer diameter of the other, or vice versa;
an interference fit.
PRIMARY CIRCUIT: The low voltage side of the ignition system which con-
sists of the ignition switch, ballast resistor or resistance wire, bypass, coil,
electronic control unit and pick-up coil as well as the connecting wires and
harnesses.
RACE: The surface on the inner or otiter ring of a bearing on which the balls,
needles or rollers move.
REGULATOR: A device which maintains the amperage and/or voltage levels
of a circuit at predetermined values.
RELAY: A switch which automatically opens and/or closes a circuit.
RESISTANCE: The opposition to the flow of current through a circuit or elec-
trical device, and is measured in ohms. Resistance is equal to the voltage di-
vided by the amperage.
RESISTOR: A device, usually made of wire, which offers a preset amount of
resistance in an electrical circuit.
RING GEAR: The name given to a ring-shaped gear attached to a differential
case, or affixed to a flywheel or as part of a planetary gear set.
ROLLER BEARING: A bearing made up of hardened inner and outer races
between which hardened steel rollers move.
ROTOR: (1.) The disc-shaped part of a disc brake assembly, upon which the
brake pads bear; also called, brake disc. (2.) The device mounted atop the dis-
tributor shaft, which passes current to the distributor cap tower contacts.

II-20 GLOSSARY
SECONDARY CIRCUIT: The high voltage side of the ignition system, usu-
ally above 20,000 volts. The secondary includes the ignition coil, coil wire,
distributor cap and rotor, spark plug wires and spark plugs.
SENDING UNIT: A mechanical, electrical, hydraulic or electromagnetic de-
vice which transmits information to a gauge.
SENSOR: Any device designed to measure engine operating conditions or
ambient pressures and temperatures. Usually electronic in nature and designed
to send a voltage signal to an on-board computer, some sensors may oper-
ate as a simple on/off switch or they may provide a variable voltage signal
(like a potentiometer) as conditions or measured parameters change.
SHIM: Spacers of precise, predetermined thickness used between parts to es-
tablish a proper working relationship.
SLAVE CYLINDER: In automotive use, a device in the hydraulic clutch sys-
tem which is activated by hydraulic force, disengaging the clutch.
SOLENOID: An electrically operated, magnetic switching device.
SPARK PLUG: A device screwed into the combustion chamber of a spark ig-
nition engine. The basic construction is a conductive core inside of a ceramic
insulator, mounted in an outer conductive base. An electrical charge from the
spark plug wire travels along the conductive core and jumps a preset air gap
to a grounding point or points at the end of the conductive base. The resul-
tant spark ignites the fuel/air mixture in the combustion chamber.
SPLINES: Ridges machined or cast onto the outer diameter of a shaft or in-
ner diameter of a bore to enable parts to mate without rotation.
TACHOMETER: A device used to measure the rotary speed of an engine,
shaft, gear, etc., usually in rotations per minute.
THERMOSTAT: A valve, located in the cooling system of an engine, which
is closed when cold and opens gradually in response to engine heating, con-
trolling the temperature of the coolant and rate of coolant flow.
TOP DEAD CENTER (TDC): The point at which the piston reaches the top
of its travel on the compression stroke.
TORQUE: Measurement of turning or twisting force, expressed as foot-pounds
or inch-pounds.
TORQUE CONVERTER: A turbine used to transmit power from a driving
member to a driven member via hydraulic action, providing changes in drive
ratio and torque. In automotive use, it links the driveplate at the rear of the en-
gine to the automatic transmission. TRANSDUCER: A device that changes energy from one form to another. For
example, a transducer in a microphone changes sound energy to electrical en-
ergy. In automotive air-conditioning controls used in automatic temperature
systems, a transducer changes an electrical signal to a vacuum signal, which
operates mechanical doors.
TRANSISTOR: A semi-conductor component which can be actuated by a
small voltage to perform an electrical switching function.
TUNE-UP: A regular maintenance function, usually associated with the re-
placement and adjustment of parts and components in the electrical and fuel
systems of a vehicle for the purpose of attaining optimum performance.
TURBOCHARGER: An exhaust driven pump which compresses intake air
and forces it into the combustion chambers at higher than atmospheric pres-
sures The increased air pressure allows more fuel to be burned and results
in increased horsepower being produced.
.
VACUUM ADVANCE: A device which advances the ignition timing in re-
sponse to increased engine vacuum.
VACUUM GAUGE: An instrument used for measuring the existing vacuum
in a vacuum circuit or chamber. The unit of measure is inches (of mercury in
a barometer).
VALVE: Devices that can open or close fluid passages in a hydraulic system
and are used for directing fluid flow and controlling pressure.
VALVE CLEARANCE: The measured gap between the end of the valve stem
and the rocker arm, cam lobe or follower that activates the valve.
VISCOSITY: The ability of a fluid to flow. The lower the viscosity rating, the
easier the fluid will flow. 10 weight motor oil will flow much easier than 40
weight motor oil.
VOLTMETER: An instrument used for measuring electrical force in units
called volts. Voltmeters are always connected parallel with the circuit being
tested.
WHEEL CYLINDER: Found in the automotive drum brake assembly, it is a
device, actuated by hydraulic pressure, which, through internal pistons, pushes
the brake shoes outward against the drums.
