    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Well, I know what TDC means - top dead center. It's when the piston in any given cylinder as at the very top point of it's compression stroke. TDC is useful when checking or setting spark timing, valve timing, etc. Usually the spark is set to fire BTDC - Before (or below? - someone help me out here! LOL) Top Dead Center.

Ok, so what does TSCC stand for?
 
Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber

Twin Dome Combustion Chamber

Ok, so whats my 1977 GS750B likely to be besides an OLD bike lol
(would it be TSCC or TDCC or both if thats possible)??

It didint have any of the stickers on the engine when I got it.
 
The head also incorporates Suzuki's Twin Dome Combustion Chamber (TDCC), which purports to produce a faster burning fuel mixture and more power. -From motorcyclecruiser.com

I'm not sure, but I believe the TSCC was only associated with the 16 valve engines.

THE OLDER 2 VALVES ARE NOT TSCC BUT FROM I THINK 1980 THEY STARTED MAKING THE 4 VALVE WHICH WAS TSCC.
 
TDCC = Top Dead Center Compression stroke

TDCE = Top Dead Center Exhaust stroke

Helps to know what stroke your on when degreeing cams on a four stroke. Now if you have a two stroke that might just be a problem :D
