So does the vvti just retard the cam, or advance it?

The VVTi retard and advance the camshaft angle based on the engine:
- RPM - Temperature - Load If you see the image below you can notice that the camshaft is being advanced or retarding according these factors. Although there are six diagrams of camshaft angles, three of them are matched with others. I marked them for you to understand with ease. It is hard to notice correctly if the overlaps are the same but if you see accurately, the camshaft angle figures are labeled with a 7-digit number. Some of them are actually the same label so it makes me think that infact they are at the same position. So lets make a summary of this: Camshaft Angle 1 - Fully Retarded During idling \ Light Load (1a) = At Low Temperature (1b) = Upon Starting \ Stopping Engine (1c) Camshaft Angle 2 - Fully Advanced At medium Load (2a) = In low to Medium Speed Range with Heavy Load (2b) Camshaft Angle 3 - Retarded but more advanced than Angle 1 In High Speed Range with Heavy Load Still.... if you notice the 2nd and 3rd diagrams you will notice that the valve has only two ports and not three, which I am thinking are Angles 1 and 2. So that makes me think, where would the valve be at Angle 3? |
