Hands On Training in Auto

The Auto Instructor at Shriver Job Corps in Devens, MA is shown here with his students working on a project virtually together.  Mr. Centamore stated that they worked on building a working plastic see thru model 4 cylinder engine.  The purpose of this project is so that they can get accustomed to the inner parts of an engine and see how everything fits together and turns.  It also has a timing belt on it so they can time the engine and not worry about timing it wrong and have the pistons hit the valves.  They can also see how timing it wrong will make the pistons hit the valves.  “This is an excellent project that teaches organization and patience” says Mr. Centamore.
