Nissan Maxima Intake Valve

Maxima Intake Valve regulates the flow of air and fuel mixture in the engine combustion chamber. The Intake Valve opens as the camshaft lobe acts on the valvetrain to permit fresh charge entry to the cylinder, and the valve closes to seal the chamber to permit compression to build to allow effective combustion. At least one Intake Valve and an exhaust valve are applied in each cylinder, and the exact order of opening and closing is the key to smooth Nissan Maxima functioning. The valvetrain can use overhead cam or overhead valve designs, and lifters, pushrods, rocker arms, or followers can convey the movement of the cam to the Intake Valve. Valve spring pressure is sufficient to ensure that the component is seated, and weaker springs may lead to valve float, misfire and power loss in a Nissan Maxima engine. The Intake Valve may be distorted or cracked due to overheating, wear or excessive clearance, and thus it should be replaced in time, otherwise it can lead to the poor performance of the Nissan Maxima.
