CYLINDER HEADNALVES
• Engine top-end problems usually affect engine performance. These can be diagnosed by a compression test or by tracing
engine noises to the top-end with a sounding
rod
or stethoscope.
• If the performance
is
poor at low speeds, check for white smoke
in
the crankcase breather hose. If the hose is smoky, check for
a seized piston ring (page 11-8).
Compression too low, hard starting or poor performance at low speed
Valves:
