Rocker arms are a part of an engine that helps open and close the valves. They "rock" back and forth to transfer the rotating motion from the engine's camshaft to the valves, allowing fuel and air into the engine and letting exhaust out.
Full definition
The size of intake valves was increased to 28 mm, and the weight
of rocker arms was reduced.
However, each secondary
intake rocker arm is shaped similar to a «Y» which allows it to contact two intake valves at once.
The term «primary» does not refer to which
rocker arm forces the valve down during low - RPM engine operation.
The engine employs an all -
new rocker arm that switches between low - and high - lift intake cam profiles to achieve the variable - lift function.
In addition, friction reduction measures include an improved valve
roller rocker arm design with a new camshaft profile, small, lightweight pistons with a low friction coating, enhanced engine block rigidity and bore circularity, and low viscosity oil.
Extensive friction reduction measures include enhanced engine block rigidity and bore circularity, an improved valve roller
rocker arm design with a new camshaft profile, small, lightweight pistons with a low friction coating, low viscosity oil and a water jacket spacer.
The engine uses low - friction technology such as an offset cylinder and a roller
rocker arm for the valve gear.
Lubrication for the rollers is provided through the roller
rocker arms pivot via an oil passage in the fixed pivot.
The 2010 FJ Cruiser will come with dual VVT - i and roller
rocker arms on the 4.0 - liter V6, which add 19 hp and a one mpg increase.

rocker arm system that provides 2 - mode control of the intake valves.
These 1.7:1 ratio hardened
steel rocker arms have elongated slots to provide extra clearance for high - lift -LRB-.600» and greater) camshafts
Unlike the other similar variable valve timing systems such as the Honda VTEC, the Toyota VVT - i and the Mitsubishi MIVEC which
use rocker arm locking pins to change the valve timing, the CPS system uses direct - acting tappets with locking pins to change the valve timing and lift profile.
Moved by this pressurized oil, the pistons lock each cylinder's pair of intake
rocker arms together.
Noise is coming
from Rocker arms because once i opened head of bike engine to check if something can be done by me but didn't done anything because i don't have that much knowledge about internal parts and settings

For efficiency and performance, Porsche says, the naturally aspirated engine gets rigidly
mounted rocker arms and a central oil feed for the first time.
Low - restriction intake and exhaust systems, a 10.0:1 compression ratio, and roller -
type rocker arms also aid efficiency.
• Two - lobe overhead cam and a pair of needle - roller
rocker arms reduce friction by 50 percent for increased fuel efficiency and torque.

Tip Rocker Arms for GM LS1 and LS3 Engines (Needle Bearing and Bushed Versions)
Some SOHC multi-valve engines (such as the Mazda B8 - ME) use a single fork -
shaped rocker arm to drive two valves (generally the exhaust valves) so that fewer cam lobes will be needed in order to reduce manufacturing costs.
The 2 - arm VTEC
® rocker arm itself is smaller and has less mass than the previous design.
Subaru says the block is stronger than before, has lower - friction camshafts,
lighter rocker arms and polished valve stems.
This sliding pin connects the intake
rocker arm followers together so that, now, both intake valves are following the «normal» camshaft lobe instead of just one of them.
The valvetrain also employs roller
rocker arms instead of a direct sliding system to reduce friction and improve fuel efficiency, while the intake system has been optimised with longer ports for improved low - and mid-range torque.
It comes with an all metal
CNC rocker arm and a left - right interchangeable soft - touch handle.
The forward motion of the
ab rocker arms will roll the seat back, contracting the core in a seated crunch.
Now as I'm watching videos and reading more, it states that the camshaft go inside the cylinder block and use
rocker arms etc to move the valves.
Slung behind the rear axle is a 3746cc, aircooled flat six, a fifth of a litre bigger than the unit in any other 993, and featured several differences to the Carrera's regular engine, from forged pistons, to dual oil coolers and
lightened rocker arms.
Alfa Romeo launched its RL, featuring a straight - 6 engine with an
overhead rocker arm and valves, and brakes on all 4 wheels.
However, beginning with the J37A4 3.7 L SOHC V6 engine introduced on all 2009 Acura TL SH - AWD models, SOHC VTEC was incorporated for use with intake and exhaust valves, using a total of six cam lobes and six
rocker arms per cylinder.
At the switch point a solenoid is actuated that allows oil pressure from a spool valve to operate a locking pin which binds the high
RPM rocker arm to the low RPM ones.
(or something similar) with springs,
reinforced rocker arms, headers, performance exhaust system 3» (or straight pipes).
In the SOHC design, the camshaft operates the valves directly, traditionally via a bucket tappet; or via an
intermediary rocker arm.
Ticking sounds in the top of the engine is almost always related to issues with the valve train such
as rocker arms that need to be adjusted or simply not enough oil reaching the valve train as a result of...
The heads had special close - tolerance pushrod holes to guide the pushrods without
rail rocker arms or stamped steel guide plates.
