  • Valvetrain Repair - Fixing Valve Float Diagnosing Valve Float Issues Found in an Engine from the February, 2009 Issue of Circle Track Magazine by Jeff Huneycutt
    Valvetrain Repair - Fixing Valve Float Diagnosing Valve Float Issues Found In An Engine From the February, 2009 issue of Circle Track magazine By Jeff Huneycutt While making our usual rounds of shops, we came across a problem that plagues many rebuilders and unnecessarily costs them lots of money-and we thought we'd share the solution with you. While performing a rebuild of a late-model Chevy engine, cylinder head specialist Kevin Troutman of KT Engine Development saw the telltale signs of classic valve float. The customer either didn't notice or just didn't bother to mention the problem to KT Engines, and the results were costly. But the good news is that valve float can be avoided. Valve float occurs when the valve springs are incapable of holding the valvetrain against the camshaft lobe after peak lift. This happens when either the weight of the combined valvetrain components or the rpm speed of the engine creates so much inertia that the spring is no longer able to control the valve. The most common response to valve float is to increase the strength of the spring so that it can better control valve motion. But stronger springs generally weigh more and cause their own problems. Achieving the optimum strength-to-weight ratio is a delicate balancing act for every engine builder. The most efficient and dependable engines are able to hit the sweet spot in the triangle created between strength of the valve spring, weight of the valvetrain components (lifters, pushrods, rocker arms, valves, retainers, locks, and springs), and the engine's peak rpm levels.

  • Marvel-Schebler-Manual.Pdf
    SERVICE MANUAL for MARVEL-SCHEBLER TRACTOR and INDUSTRIAL CARBURETORS MODELS DLTX & TSX MARVEL-SCHEBLER PRODUCTS DIV. BORG-WARNER CORPORATION DECATUR, ILL, USA. 2 Principle of Operation Marvel-Schebler Carburetors are used on thousands of tractor and industrial engines and have been designed to provide many years of trouble-free service, however, as in the case of all mechanical devices, they do in time require proper service and repairs. An understanding of their construction and how they operate as well as an understanding of their function with respect to the engine will not only avoid many false leads on the part of the serviceman in diagnosing so-called carburetor complaints but will create customer satisfaction and a profitable business for the progressive service shop. To understand a carburetor, it is necessary to realize that there is only one thing that carburetor is designed to do and that is to mix fuel and the air in the proper proportion so that the mixture will burn efficiently in an engine. It is the function of the engine to convert this mixture into power. There are three major factors in an engine which control the change of fuel and air into power: 1. Compression. 2. Ignition. 3. Carburetion. Carburetion has been listed last because it is absolutely necessary for the engine to have good compression and good ignition before it can have good carburetion. When the average person thinks of “carburetion” they immediately think of the carburetor as a unit. Carburetion is the combined function of the carburetor, manifold, valves, piston and rings, combustion chamber, and camshaft.

  • TR250/TR6 Carbs Part I
    2/21/2019 TR250/TR6 Carbs Part I TR250 - TR6 Carburetor Overhaul Part I - Disassembly & Theory These notes were initially prepared and published as a three part series in the Buckeye Triumphs Newsletter in late winter & early spring of 2001 and then placed on the Buckeye Triumphs website. Over the next six months input and useful suggestions were received from a number of folks. I also rebuilt several more carb sets and realized that the information could be clarified in a number of places. The carbs originally described in these notes were powder coated, which required the carbs be taken apart again and further disassembly of the temperature compensators, bypass valves and float chamber vent valves. Some problems were encountered tuning the powder coated carbs. These problems caused a review the previous suggested tuning procedures. Turns out the procedures were correct, the problem was in another area of the engine. I decided to revise the notes to work in the additional information, corrections and suggestions and add parts describing how to powder coat the carbs and how to install adjustable needles in the early non-adjustable carbs. Hopefully someday I'll be able to add a part describing how to replace the throttle shaft bushes and a part on the use of exhaust gas sensors. NAR 11/2001. Another update: I built an air/fuel monitor and used it to tune the carbs described in Parts I, II & III. The use of the monitor provided considerable insight into the operation of the carbs. However, the optimum adjustment determined from using the monitor was the same as determined earlier without the monitor (see Part III).

  • Poppet Valve
    POPPET VALVE A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, usually round or oval, and a tapered plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft also called a valve stem. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also open it. Other types Presta and Schrader valves used on tires are examples of poppet valves. The Presta valve has no spring and relies on a pressure differential for opening and closing while being inflated. Uses Poppet valves are used in most piston engines to open and close the intake and exhaust ports. Poppet valves are also used in many industrial process from controlling the flow of rocket fuel to controlling the flow of milk[[1]]. The poppet valve was also used in a limited fashion in steam engines, particularly steam locomotives. Most steam locomotives used slide valves or piston valves, but these designs, although mechanically simpler and very rugged, were significantly less efficient than the poppet valve. A number of designs of locomotive poppet valve system were tried, the most popular being the Italian Caprotti valve gear[[2]], the British Caprotti valve gear[[3]] (an improvement of the Italian one), the German Lentz rotary-cam valve gear, and two American versions by Franklin, their oscillating-cam valve gear and rotary-cam valve gear. They were used with some success, but they were less ruggedly reliable than traditional valve gear and did not see widespread adoption. In internal combustion engine poppet valve The valve is usually a flat disk of metal with a long rod known as the valve stem out one end.

  • Carb Cleaning 101
    WWW.SOHC4.NET Carb Cleaning 101 By Mark Shively Original publication source unknown The elements of internal combustion engines are: correct fuel/air ratio, spark at right time, adequate cylinder compression. There are many passageways and openings to check and clean. All are important in function and when obstructed or not working properly, have subtle to radical effects on engine performance. Vacuum leaks and carburetor synchronization also have effects on performance and should be inspected and adjusted following the below procedures. Carb Cleaning 101 Warning: Remove all rubber parts before you begin. These parts usually include vacuum diaphragms, needle valves, o'rings, hoses, and other parts. Spray cleaners will damage these parts. Do not disassemble individual carbs from the carb bracket. Air & Fuel Passageways: Trace and learn individual fuel and air circuits from beginning to end. Machines can only drill straight through the cast passageways. To change direction, another angled passageway must be drilled. The union is plugged with a brass or bronze bead. Inspect and clean each passageway with spray cleaner, brushes/pipe cleaners/etc, and compressed air. Remove any discoloration and debris. Look for spray cleaner to exit from one or more passageways. Jet Cleaning: Inspect jets by holding to light and look through them. You should see an unobstructed round hole. Clean the jets with one or more of the following: jet cleaning wires, soak solutions, carb spray cleaners and compressed air. Re-inspect jets after cleaning and install when clear of obstructions. Some main jets have paper-like gaskets. Most have metal spacers between the jet and the emulsion tube.
