Introduction
The cylinder head is located above the cylinders
on top of the crankcase. It closes in the top of the
cylinder, forming the combustion chamber. This joint
is sealed by a cylinder head gasket.
The cylinder head also provides the space for the
passages that feed air and fuel to the cylinder and
allow the exhaust to escape. The cylinder head is
also used to mount the valves (PIL 15-30) and fuel
injectors (PIL 18-18).
