REF•26Glossary of technical terms
automatic transmission, a switch that
prevents starting if the vehicle is not in Neutral
or Park.
Strut See MacPherson strut.
TTappet A cylindrical component which
transmits motion from the cam to the valve
stem, either directly or via a pushrod and
r ocker arm. Also called a cam follower.
Thermostat A heat-controlled valve that
r egulates the flow of coolant between the
cylinder block and the radiator, so maintaining
optimum engine operating temperature. A
thermostat is also used in some air cleaners in
which the temperature is regulated.
Thrust bearing The bearing in the clutch
assembly that is moved in to the release levers
by clutch pedal action to disengage the
clutch. Also referred to as a release bearing.
Timing belt A toothed belt which drives the
camshaft. Serious engine damage may result
if it breaks in service.
Timing chain A chain which drives the
camshaft.
Toe-in The amount the front wheels are
closer together at the front than at the rear. On
r ear wheel drive vehicles, a slight amount of
toe-in is usually specified to keep the front
wheels running parallel on the road by
of fsetting other forces that tend to spread the
wheels apart.
Toe-out The amount the front wheels are
closer together at the rear than at the front. On fr
ont wheel drive vehicles, a slight amount of
toe-out is usually specified.
Tools For full information on choosing and
using tools, refer to the Haynes Automotive
T ools Manual.
Tracer A stripe of a second colour applied to
a wire insulator to distinguish that wire fr om
another one with the same colour insulator.
Tune-up A process of accurate and careful
adjustments and parts replacement to obtain
the best possible engine performance.
Turbocharger A centrifugal device, driven by
exhaust gases, that pressurises the intake air.
Normally used to increase the power output
fr om a given engine displacement, but can
also be used primarily to reduce exhaust
emissions (as on VW’s “Umwelt” Diesel
engine).
UUniversal joint or U-joint A double-pivoted
connection for transmitting power from a
driving to a driven shaft through an angle. A U-
joint consists of two Y-shaped yokes and a
cr oss-shaped member called the spider.
VValve A device through which the flow of
liquid, gas, vacuum, or loose material in bulk
may be started, stopped, or regulated by a
movable part that opens, shuts, or partially obstructs one or more ports or passageways.
A valve is also the movable part of such a
device.
V
alve clearance The clearance between the
valve tip (the end of the valve stem) and the
r ocker arm or tappet. The valve clearance is
measur ed when the valve is closed.
V er nier caliper A precision measuring
instrument that measures inside and outside
dimensions. Not quite as accurate as a
micrometer , but more convenient.
Viscosity The thickness of a liquid or its
r esistance to flow.
Volt A unit for expressing electrical “pressure”
in a circuit. One volt that will produce a current
of one ampere through a resistance of one
ohm.
WWelding Various processes used to join metal
items by heating the areas to be joined to a
molten state and fusing them together. For
mor e information refer to the Haynes
Automotive Welding Manual.
Wiring diagram A drawing portraying the
components and wires in a vehicle’s electrical system, using standardised symbols. For
mor e information refer to the Haynes
Automotive Electrical and Electronic Systems
Manual.
