How to Adjust the Valves of a Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine?

Single-cylinder diesel engine valve adjustment method: Open the valve cover, loosen the adjusting nut on the rocker arm, turn the adjusting screw, and use your thumb and index finger to pinch and rotate the valve pushrod. When the resistance decreases, tighten the fixing nut to complete the adjustment. The resistance should not be too large or too small. The other valve is adjusted in the same way. Working principle of a single-cylinder diesel engine: Single-cylinder diesel engines include two-stroke and four-stroke types, with basically the same structure. The main difference lies in the valve timing mechanism. Each working cycle of a single-cylinder diesel engine goes through four processes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. In one working cycle, only one stroke is the power stroke, while the other three strokes are auxiliary strokes that create conditions for the power stroke.
