(4) Run-In Procedure
The procedure outlined below will follow the order of the
sample Engine Test Report (see page 5-924 ) .
(a) Pre-Starting
1. Fill the lubrication system.
2. Prime the fuel system.
3. A preliminary valve clearance adjustment must
be made before the engine is started.
4. A preliminary injector timing check must be
made before starting the engine.
5. Preliminary governor adjustments must be made.
6. Preliminary injector rack adjustment must be made.
(b) Basic Engine Run-In
1. The operator should be observant at all times,
so that any malfunction which may develop will
be detected. Since the engine has just been
reconditioned, this run-in will be a test of
the workmanship of the serviceman who per-
formed the overhaul. Minor difficulties
should be detected and corrected so that a
major problem will not develop.
2. After performing the preliminary steps, be
sure all water valves, fuel valves, etc. are
open. Also inspect the exhaust system, being
sure that it is properly connected to the
engine. Always start the engine with minimum
dynamometer resistance.
