Two-Stroke Tuner's Handbook

Feed Your Brain!!

Anyone who is serious about two-stroke tuning read or came across Gordon Jennings "Two-Stroke Tuner's Handbook".  Although it was originally published in 1973, a lot of the information still pertains today.  It's a extremely technical book.  I felt like I was reading my old college engineering books!!  If you didn't get a chance to read it or a lot of the stuff is just flying over your head as did mines, some section I thought worth reading were:

• Squish Bands
• Expansion Chamber
• Port Timing
• Cylinder Porting (Gorr) p.90
• Reed Valves
• Intake Port Shape
• Cylinder Scavenging
• Port-Edge Chamfers
• Subtleties p.121
• Carburetion, Ignition
