ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine may be tested by connecting a flexible inlet conduit leading from a coolant supply source to a coolant inlet provided on the engine. A flexible outlet conduit is connected to lead from a drain to a coolant outlet provided on the engine. A pressure gauge is mounted in fluid communication with a heater hose port provided on the engine. Coolant continuously flows from the coolant supply source through the inlet conduit, engine and outlet conduit to the drain. A pressure regulating valve in the inlet conduit is adjusted to provide the correct coolant pressure into the engine. The exterior of the engine is inspected for coolant leaks. A stand may be used to support an internal combustion during the test. The stand embodies a generally T-shaped frame that is rollingly supported above a support surface and supports a muffler to deaden the noise of the engine after it has been started.
