I've dragged us (VV) through this before. Boxer engines are those
180-degree-opposed engines whose opposed pistons move out at the same time
(left side vs right side), and in at the same time. There ARE
180-degree-opposed engines whose opposed pistons move in TANDEM - that is,
when left is moving out, right is moving in (toward the crankshaft). THESE
engines are NOT boxers - they are V engines with 180 degrees between the
banks.
Gee, guys. You guys are going on and on about Boxers. Try and be more Brief!
Thus ending the Boxers vs. Briefs controversy! - Seth
