What does OHV stand for when referring to a type of engine?

  1. Overhauled Valve

  2. Overhead Valve

  3. Overhead Vertical

  4. Over-wired Valve

The correct answer is: Overhauled Valve

OHV stands for Overhead Valve, which refers to a type of engine where the valves are positioned above the combustion chamber. Option A, "Overhauled Valve," is incorrect because it suggests that the valve has been repaired or redone, which is not the case. Option C, "Overhead Vertical," is incorrect because it combines two unrelated terms and does not accurately describe the type of engine. Option D, "Over-wired Valve," is incorrect because it also combines two unrelated terms and does not accurately describe the type of engine.
