How to Adjust Valves in a Diesel Engine?
1 Answers
Diesel engine valve adjustment method is: 1. Locate the installation position of the diesel engine; 2. Identify the valves and make adjustments; 3. Rotate the valves left and right to find the markings on them, then adjust to the appropriate position. The function of valves is specifically responsible for introducing air into the engine and expelling exhaust gases after combustion. Diesel engines are divided into: 1. Spark-ignition engines: Gasoline engines inject gasoline into the intake pipe to mix with air, forming a combustible mixture that enters the cylinder and is ignited by spark plugs to expand and perform work; 2. Compression-ignition engines: Diesel engines inject diesel directly into the engine cylinder through the fuel injection pump and injector, where it mixes uniformly with compressed air in the cylinder and self-ignites under high temperature and pressure to push the piston and perform work.
