Excerpt

The LiteKS 4 piston system from KS Kolbenschmidt offers significant advantages in terms of friction and weight thanks to its improved shape, thinner walls and a special aluminum alloy. Both in driving cycle simulation and in tests with a single- cylinder and a three-cylinder gasoline engine, fuel savings of up to 6 % were achieved compared to the standard version. …
