Reconditioned Engine
Usage:
Reconditioned engines with new rings or piston assemblies, require only an initial operational check before continued operation in normal service.
The purpose of this initial operational check is to: Ensure that the engine has been assembled properly; determine if proper pressures and temperatures are maintained in the lubrication, cooling and fuel systems; correct any leaks; perform necessary adjustments (such as valve clearance, governor high and low idle speeds, etc.); and to check the power setting of the engine.
To provide a safe, uniform initial operational check; the following procedure is recommended:
- 1. Operate engine at low idle... 10 minutes
- 2. Operate engine at half-load, 3/4 rated speed ... 15 minutes
- 3. Operate engine at rated load and speed ... 30 minutes
