Where is the compression release mechanism located on a B and S 12.5 HP overhead valves My engine has electric and pull start. When I use pull start the engine sometimes pull the cord in very hard.?

Sound like a timing problem. Check fly wheel shear key for wear.Or it might be warn valves. If the engine runs fine once it is started, then it sounds likes the engine needs the valves adjusted. The engine does have a compression release built into it. If the valves are too loose it will have too much compression. For help on adjusting the valves watch the video in the link below.


How does quadrajet secondary jet air valve work?

As the accelerator is depressed with load on the engine: such as being in gear, engine speed will begin to increase. As the engine begins to require more air and fuel, the secondary air valve will begin to open. These valves are controlled by a choke pulloff vacuum canister which releases as vacuum in the intake drops. Then the suction of the engine will allow your air valves to open also causing fuel to be sucked into the engine through the secondaries. When these valves open, a cam that they are mounted to will lift the secondary metering rods higher out of the jets which allows fuel to pass more readily through the carburetor and into your engine. Cool sound!


What are sodium cooled valves and how they work?

Sodium is a solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid at 97.5 degrees Celsius. Sodium cooled valves are exhaust valves in a cylinder head of an engine that open to release exhaust gasses that were formed due to combustion of fuel and air inside the cylinders and typically get very hot. The sodium cooled valves and exhaust valves filled with sodium inside, the sodium helps the valves be cooler than if they were just solid.


What is Camless engine technology?

cam less engine technology is the use of solenoids to open and close the intake and exhaust valves in a gasoline engine. Instead of using a camshaft, which has fixed timing limitations, solenoid controlled valves have unlimited timing ability therefor giving the modern engine maximum fuel efficiency and optimizing power and torque outputs on the fly via Computer controlled.

What is Valves per Cylinder?

It is exactly what it says. The number of valves the engine has per cylinder. If you have 16 valves on an 8 cylinder engine, you have 2 valves per cylinder.


How do you make valve setting for cat 3412?

You can adjust the valves, on your Caterpillar 3406 diesel engine, by turning the engine to the number one spot. Adjust the number one valve with the adjustment screw. Move to the number two spot and so on.


What is valves on cars?

Valves control the in-flow and out-flow of fuel, air and exhaust fumes in a combustion engine (known as intake valves and exhaust valves). A 4-cylinder engine with 16 valves will have 4 valves per cylinder, with two intake and two exhaust valves per cylinder. With experience it is easy to tell the sounds of the valves apart because each engine sounds different with different valves. Generally the less number of valves means a deeper/throatier sound from the cars and vice-versa


How do you adjust the valves on a 1984 Ford Ranger 4-wheel drive with a 2.8L engine 5-speed transmission?

This engine probably has hydraulic lifters and no adjustment is required.
