3. The
leokoge test should
be corried out with
the cylinder heod fully ossembled by pouring
o smoll quontity
of petrol
into the exhoust ond
intoke ports.
The petrol must not leok post
the
moting foce of the volve
in the combustion
chomber. Another method involves pouring
o smoll omount of thin oil into the combustion
chomber ond introducing compressed oir into
the exhoust ond intoke ports
using, for
exomple,
o rubber
cone. No oir bubbles must oppeor
oround the volve heods.
This test con be simplif ied by omitting the
fitting of vclve springs while pressing
the
volves into their seots by hond using o suitoble
Jixture (fork)
for holding down the volves.
Volves The volves
ore forgings of speciol high-tem-
peroture steel with o conicol seoling surfoce
ond ho,rdened stem end. The
volve heods ore
of unequol diometers (lorger
with intoke volves
ond smoller with exhoust volves).
Current reconditioning
of the conicol seoling
surfoce is done by grinding-in
with the respect-
ive seot. lf o mojor repoir is required,
regrind
the seoling surfoce
of the volve heod
on
o grinding
mochine to on ongle of 91 o
+10',
ond then grind
it in with the seot.
When regrinding the conicol surfoce, it is
obsolutely essentiol to keep it in
correct olign-
ment with the volve stem.

Alwoys turn the engine clockwise to eliminote ony ploy
in the distributor drive geor
ond to
ovoid loosening of the bolt. To relieve the
com-
pression resistonce, it
is recommended to bock
off the sporking plugs.
b) Stroboscopic method:
When using this method, the volues of the
bosic ignition timing ond
the odvonce con-
trolled by the centrifugol timing control (for
its
diogrom refer to Chopter 13.5) should be odded
upwhile multiplying bytwo
the odded upvolues
occording to the diogrom. Any effect of the
vocuum control must be
eliminoted by discorr-
necting the respective hose (connecting
the
distributor vocuum unit with the corburettor).
The meosuring procedure
is indicoted by the
diognostic equipment itself.
To Adiust ldling Speed
Use the oir-correction screw (speed
cor-
rection screw). The speed decreoses when ro-
toting the screw clockwise ond increoses when
rototing it onticlockwise.
Adiust the idling speed in occordonce with
the tochometer ond within the limits specified
in the following porogroph "To
Adiust ldle
Run". The engine must be wormed-up
before
storting the odjusting procedure (see
olso the
following porogrophs) ond its ignition must be
in perfect
condition (distributor
contoct-breoker
points, sporking plug
electrodes, ond ignition
odvonce).

of 70oC. Insert the probe
of the thermonreter
into the hole for the oil diPstick'
Now connect the
speed indicotor (tocho-
meter) ond the onolyzer of
corbon
.monoxide
(contoined in exhoust fumes). Use
the oir'cor-
iection screw (Fig.
15.3/9) to set the
speed

moioxide to 2*0.50/s or the oir-fuel proportion-
by-weight mixing rotio,
comporoble with
the
specif ied corbon monoxide content, to
1+.2 +$.t.
After about one minute of
the continued idle
running recheck the odiustment ond
correct it,
if necelsory. Close the hole
with the
fost-idling
screw by driving in o
new plug with
its bottom
outword.
Note: For the bosic position of
odiusting
screws refer to Chopter 2.19 - "Mointenonce
