It has been a few years since the publication of the first edition of Spectro Scientific’s In-Service Oil Analysis Handbook. Our original goal was to compile a comprehensive reference book of common in-service oil analysis techniques to help readers understand and choose the right technique and instrumentation for their needs. We had to limit the scope in the first two editions because of the amount of effort needed to cover all the topics. In-service oil analysis for condition based maintenance covers a wide array of topics. I am pleased to say that in this third edition, we are much closer to our goal. We reorganized the structure of the content for better clarity and we added articles to cover more topics and instruments associated with oil analysis. Also, we rewrote several articles including the latest developments on the market. As we learned more from our customers about their successes using on site oil analysis, we developed case studies that you can find in this edition. This work is not possible without the time and effort from the contributing authors: Patrick Henning, Daniel Walsh, Robert Yurko, Ken Caldwell, Thomas Barraclough, Maria Bartus, Randi Price, John Morgan, Aifeng Shi and Yuegang Zhao from Spectro Scientific and Ray Garvey from Emerson Process Management.

    ENG-04, Camshaft Belt / Balance Shaft Belt - General Information, Maintenance Intervals, Part Numbers Maintenance Intervals Timing belts have long been the source of many heated discussions and much heartache for 944 owners. Every new or potential 944 owner should read Jim Pasha's article, 944 Timing Belts and Water Pumps in the August 1994 issue of Excellence Magazine. Due to the history of changes in the factory recommendations for timing belt replacement, you'll find a number of different recommendations being given. The recommendations below are based on the most recent factory recommendations with some additional guidance based on personal experience. 944 Mileage Maintenance 2000 Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts. 15000* Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts. 30000 Inspect and retension timing and balance shaft belts Replace timing and balance shaft belts. Inspect rollers and replace if 45000 necessary. * For vehicles which see limited service, I recommend inspecting the belts after two years if 15000 miles has not been reached and annually thereafter. 968 Mileage Maintenance 15000 Inspect timing and balance shaft belts. 30000* Inspect timing and balance shaft belts. 45000 Inspect timing and balance shaft belts Replace timing and balance shaft belts. Inspect rollers and replace if 60000 necessary. * For vehicles which see limited service, I recommend inspecting the belts after two years if 15000 miles has not been reached and annually thereafter. Parts For highlighted items choose one of the parts based on specific model. Page 1 of 3 Based on my own experience of a tensioner stud failure and reports of similar occurrences from other owners, I recommend replacing the cam belt tensioner mounting stud at each timing belt replacement.

  • Small Engine Parts and Operation
    1 Small Engine Parts and Operation INTRODUCTION The small engines used in lawn mowers, garden tractors, chain saws, and other such machines are called internal combustion engines. In an internal combustion engine, fuel is burned inside the engine to produce power. The internal combustion engine produces mechanical energy directly by burning fuel. In contrast, in an external combustion engine, fuel is burned outside the engine. A steam engine and boiler is an example of an external combustion engine. The boiler burns fuel to produce steam, and the steam is used to power the engine. An external combustion engine, therefore, gets its power indirectly from a burning fuel. In this course, you’ll only be learning about small internal combustion engines. A “small engine” is generally defined as an engine that pro- duces less than 25 horsepower. In this study unit, we’ll look at the parts of a small gasoline engine and learn how these parts contribute to overall engine operation. A small engine is a lot simpler in design and function than the larger automobile engine. However, there are still a number of parts and systems that you must know about in order to understand how a small engine works. The most important things to remember are the four stages of engine operation. Memorize these four stages well, and everything else we talk about will fall right into place. Therefore, because the four stages of operation are so important, we’ll start our discussion with a quick review of them. We’ll also talk about the parts of an engine and how they fit into the four stages of operation.

  • Balance Shaft Sprocket Installation and Alignment Check
    ENG-08, Balance Shaft Sprocket Installation and Alignment Check Introduction If your 944 is experiencing vibration problems, the cause could be a balance shaft misalignment. This can occur if the balance shaft belt slips a tooth, the balance shaft belt is broken, or if the balance shaft sprockets are installed incorrectly. Quite often, balance shaft sprocket misalignment occurs after water pump, crankshaft oil seal, or balance shaft oil seal replacement. The following procedure will tell you how to correctly install the balance shaft sprockets and how to check them for proper alignment if you suspect that the sprockets may have been installed incorrectly. Other Procedures Needed • ENG-13, Locating and Setting Engine to Top Dead Center (TDC), Cylinder 1 Installation Each balance shaft sprocket has two slotted grooves on the inside diameter. One of the grooves on the sprocket will slide onto a woodruff key which is inserted into a slot near the front end of the balance shaft. On 1983 and 1984 model 944s, each balance shaft sprocket was stamped on the front with an "O" (Ober or Over) beside one of the slotted grooves and a "U" (Unter or Under) beside the other slotted groove. As one might have guessed, on the upper balance shaft, the groove with the "O" stamped beside it was installed onto the woodruff key, and on the lower balance shaft, the groove with the "U" stamped beside it was installed onto the woodruff key. I'm not sure what prompted Porsche to do it but, on cars produced after 1984, only the slotted groove with the "O" was stamped.
