Course Content (Themes, Concepts, Issues and Skills)
While studying the four stroke cycle, students will be able to classify engines based on cylinder number, configuration and/or valve train design. Students will trace engine lubrication and cooling systems as well as understand the causes of wear and part failure. Students will also become familiar with the concepts of volumetric efficiency, horsepower and torque. In addition, students continue to develop and practice skills related to hazardous waste disposal, and avoidance of potential shop hazards.
- Utilize proper safety procedures
- Identify cylinder and valve train configuration
- Use hand tools properly
- Utilize appropriate industry protocol
- Inspect and measure valve train components
- Inspect, measure and install piston rings
- Adjust valve train
- Inspect and install timing chains
- Locate and use proper seals and gaskets in reassembly procedure
- Visually inspect engine components
- Use precision measuring tools: micrometer", dial bore indicator, plastigauge
- Evaluate condition of reciprocating and rotating parts
- Clean engine machined gasket surfaces
- Assess condition of oil pump
- Identify cylinder pressures using compression gauge
- Perform cylinder leakage test and identify cylinder sealing issues
- Perform oil pressure test and determine necessary action
