ABSTRACT:
The positions of selected valves are determined by measurement of their respective retainers by means of displacement gauges. When a given piston is at top dead center in the compression stroke, the retainers of the intake and exhaust valves of that piston are not displaced, but when that same piston is at the top dead center position in the exhaust stroke the intake and exhaust valve retainers of that cylinder are displaced to known positions as are intake and exhaust valve retainers of certain other cylinders, thereby indicating whether the crank position is such as to place the selected piston in the top dead center position of the compression stroke or in the top dead center position of the exhaust stroke. Inability to obtain correct correlated readings for the retainers of the related valves indicates likelihood of misassembly of the cotters on one or more of the valves.
