As for jibber-jabber in advanced engineering or science - forget it.
As for joining the Royal Society, mmm?

Actually, the more technical the subject, the easier it is for an English speaker to read a text written in Spanish or French. A lot of the words are taken from Latin and Greek and are very similar.

The last lot of argies screwed it.
Really Chris? Pistón y biela?

I bet you don't even know what that means even if written in English. Try wikipedia. It's not that hard.
Yet despite all the help advice and aid, they continue to refuse to recognise the right of the islanders to exist and live in peace and freedom ,

What you have suggested is the PISTON and connecting rod. I asked for the piston PIN as in 'pin with groove, NOT plain pin' for the retaining bolt which is fitted across the small end eye of the connecting rod and tightened to lock the pin in place thus allowing the wrist action to be taken by the piston (no need for cylinder end pads in the piston either).
And that is just a very, very simple mechanical solution to attaching pistons to the parts that start the transfer of power within IC engines, reciprocating compressors, et al.
No real science involved here.

@ DT
You are not getting confused with the units used in science to describe the various forces, weights, elements, etc. are you?
