ENGINE RUN-IN INSTRUCTIONS (Cont)
1. Oil pressure gage installed in one of the
engine main oil galleries.
2. Oil temperature gage installed in the oil
pan, or thermometer installed in the dip-
stick hole in the oil pan.
3. Adapter for connecting a pressure gage or
mercury manometer to the engine air box.
4. Water temperature gage installed in the
water outlet manifold.
5. Adapter for connecting a pressure gage or
water manometer to the crankcase.
6. Adapter for connecting a pressure gage or
mercury manometer to the exhaust manifold
at the flange.
7. Adapter for connecting a vacuum gage or
water manometer to the blower inlet.
8. Adapter for connecting a fuel pressure gage
to the fuel manifold inlet passage.
(b) In some cases, gages reading in pounds per
square inch are used for determining pressure
while standard characteristics are given in
inches of mercury or inches of water. It is
extremely important that the scale of such a
gage be of low range and finely divided if
accuracy is desired. This is especially true
of a gage reading in psi, the reading of which
is to be converted to inches of water. The
following conversion factors may be helpful:
Inches of water
=
psi x 27.7 inches
Inches of mercury
=
psi x 2.04 inches
