Asalamualaikum, students. In

0:14

this lesson on light vehicle engine maintenance, our main topic

0:17

is tuning up a conventional gasoline engine

0:19

.

0:20

Tune up is a job to

0:22

standardize all components and

0:24

systems on a vehicle to their original state.

0:26

Either by tuning or

0:28

cleaning.

0:30

The purpose of tune-up activities includes

0:32

restoring the car's performance

0:34

to like new and preventing

0:36

various damage to the car. The

0:39

work on a conventional gasoline engine tune-up

0:41

includes checking the

0:43

cooling system, checking the engine lubricating oil

0:46

, checking the air filter,

0:49

checking the battery, checking the valves,

0:53

checking the ignition system and

0:55

adjusting the idle speed. The

1:02

tune up process begins with

1:04

tool preparation. The tools used are a

1:09

radiator tester,

1:16

compression tester,

1:20

vehicle manual, and

1:23

keys.

1:28

Timing light

1:31

tune up tester,

1:34

pull scale, spark plug wrench,

1:37

advance

1:39

filler gauge, hydrometer

1:46

and multimeter. The

1:51

next step is to install the

1:53

protector on the vehicle.

2:04

Open the hood and

2:12

then install the vehicle protection. The

2:19

purpose of installing vehicle protection is

2:21

to prevent the paint on the vehicle from being scratched

2:23

and the vehicle from getting dirty.

2:47

Hey.

3:04

The next step is to check the

3:06

cooling system.

3:09

Don't forget to use the manual.

3:18

First, check the coolant level

3:20

in the reservoir. Make sure the water level

3:22

is between the two lines.

3:25

Next, remove the radiator cap and

3:28

check the radiator water for possible

3:30

oil mixing.

3:42

Also check the pressure valve

3:49

and vacuum valve on the radiator cap.

3:54

Next check the cooling system for leaks

3:56

. Select the radiator cap adapter,

3:58

then install it properly on the

4:00

radiator.

4:07

Next, take the radiator pump tester

4:11

and attach it to the radiator cap adapter

4:13

.

4:15

Pump the radiator until the needle

4:18

points to 0.9 to 1 bar.

4:22

Wait a moment. If the needle

4:24

moves down, it means there is a

4:26

leak in the cooling system.

4:30

Once the leak is repaired, remove the

4:32

radiator tester pump by pressing the

4:34

air release button and pulling the

4:37

hose lock.

5:05

Next, check the condition of the fan belt

5:07

and the fan belt deflection.

5:12

Insert the ruler.

5:14

Pull the fan belt with a load of 10 kg and

5:17

see the shift or deflection.

5:19

Standard fan belt deflection ranges

5:22

from 7 mm to 11 mm.

5:26

Next is the lubricating oil check.

5:30

Pull out the dipstick and clean the tip

5:32

with a cotton swab.

5:38

Reinsert the dipstick and then lift

5:40

the dipstick.

5:48

Check the oil level. The oil level should

5:50

be above L and below F.

5:54

Also check the oil quality by looking at

5:56

its color. If it is pitch black,

5:58

it means the oil is bad and if it is

6:01

white, it means it is mixed with

6:03

coolant.

6:05

Also check the oil for iron filings or

6:08

dissolved grams.

6:14

Next check the air filter.

6:18

Remove the filter cover.

6:26

Then lift the filter.

6:29

If the filter is dirty, clean it by

6:31

blowing it with water from the inside. The

6:37

next step is to check

6:39

the battery.

6:41

Remove the battery for easier

6:43

inspection.

6:45

Prioritize the negative terminal when removing

6:47

the battery to prevent a

6:49

short circuit between the key and the

6:51

vehicle body.

6:54

Once the battery is removed, check the

6:56

battery body for any cracks or

6:58

deformation.

7:00

Also make sure the terminal is

7:02

in good condition.

7:06

Next, check the battery electrolyte water level

7:08

. The water should be between the

7:11

upper and lower lines. Also check the density of the

7:14

battery water.

7:16

Remove the battery ventilation cover.

7:20

Then insert the hydrometer. Press

7:22

the hydrometer to measure the density of

7:24

water.

7:27

The density of standard battery water is 1260

7:31

to 1280

7:33

kg/m³.

7:35

If it is less than the standard, it means the battery

7:37

needs to have its voltage increased. And if it

7:39

exceeds the standard, it means that the battery water needs to

7:41

be added with distilled water.

7:53

Next, measure the battery voltage

7:55

using a multimeter.

8:07

Make sure the needle points to zero.

8:10

If it is not yet zero, turn the adjusting screw

8:12

until the needle shows zero.

8:15

Turn the selector towards DC 50 volts. Then

8:18

measure the battery voltage.

8:22

Standard battery voltage is between

8:24

12.3 and 12.6 volts.

8:30

Next, check or adjust the

8:33

gap

8:35

after the battery is installed. Remove the

8:37

air filter holder.

8:59

Next, remove the cylinder head

9:01

cover bolts, engine ventilation hose, and

9:03

throttle cable lock nut.

9:46

Also remove the cylinder head cover bolt seal

9:48

.

10:04

Lift the cylinder head and put it in a

10:06

safe place.

10:10

Take a 19 key to turn the

10:12

crank pullor.

10:16

Turn the crank pulley while looking at

10:18

the rotor on the distributor.

10:26

Point the rotor at spark plug number two to

10:28

find the top of cylinder number one.

10:37

Also make sure the mark on the crank pullor

10:40

shows zero.

10:47

At the top position of cylinder 1, the valves that

10:49

can be checked or dipped are the exhaust valve of

10:52

cylinder 1, the intake valve of cylinder 1, the

10:55

intake valve of cylinder 2, and the exhaust valve of cylinder 3.

11:00

Use a filler gauge measuring 0.30 to

11:03

check the clearance of the exhaust valve and 0.20

11:06

for the intake valve.

11:09

If the gap is not according to

11:11

specifications, make adjustments.

11:13

Loosen the lock nut and turn the

11:15

adjusting bolt until you feel a touch on the

11:17

end of the rocker arm. Then tighten the

11:19

lock nut.

11:24

Check the gap again. Make sure

11:26

the filler is not movable

11:29

but is not loose.

11:32

Do the same thing on the intake valve of

11:34

cylinder 2 and the exhaust valve of cylinder 3.

11:49

Next, turn the crankshaft and

11:51

position the rotor facing opposite the

11:53

spark plug of cylinder 2. The

13:28

next step is measuring the

13:30

compression pressure. Remove all spark plugs on

13:32

each cylinder.

13:46

Prepare the compression tester.

14:04

Install the distributor cap to

14:06

prevent sparks from jumping on the

14:08

distributor.

14:10

Press the compression pressure gauge.

14:13

Ask a friend for help to mainstart the

14:15

engine.

14:18

Press the accelerator pedal fully

14:20

and start the engine for a few moments.

14:24

Read the compression measurement results.

14:27

Do this on all cylinders. Make sure

14:29

that the compression pressure is at

14:32

135 psi to 180 psi. And the difference

14:37

between cylinders is less than 15 psi.

14:47

Next is the ignition system check

14:49

.

14:51

Measure the spark plug electrode gap. Make sure

14:53

the gap is between 0.7 to 1 mm.

14:56

Also make sure the color is

14:58

brick red.

15:00

Also check the condition of the distributor cap.

15:13

Also check the resistance of the high voltage cable

15:16

.

15:19

Don't forget to calibrate the measuring instrument.

15:27

Measure all high voltage cables

15:32

and ensure the resistance is less than 25

15:35

kilos. Next check the platinum gap.

15:39

Rotate the crankshaft until the

15:41

platinum bearing is at the end of the

15:43

distributor shaft side.

15:49

Measure the platinum gap using a filler

15:51

gauge. The standard platinum gap is 0.40

15:55

mm. If necessary, make adjustments.

15:58

Loosen the platinum mounting bolts, then

16:00

adjust the gap.

16:20

Once you feel the gap is right,

16:22

tighten the platinum mounting bolts again.

16:27

Reinstall the rotor and

16:28

distributor cap.

16:50

Also install the spark plug cables according to the

16:52

ignition sequence.

17:13

Reinstall the air filter holder.

17:21

Don't forget to tighten the fastening bolts.

17:39

Reinstall the filter and

17:41

filter cover.

18:05

Next is the measurement of the duel angle

18:07

to ensure that the platinum gap adjustment

18:09

is correct. Direct the

18:12

tune up tester selector to the duel measurement position

18:14

.

18:19

Attach the negative prop to the vehicle ground

18:21

and the positive prop to the platinum bolt on the

18:23

distributor.

18:26

Start the engine and see the measurement results

18:29

on the duel tester.

18:33

For a 4 cylinder engine the duel angle should

18:36

be between 52 and 56 degrees.

18:50

Next is the ignition timing measurement

18:52

.

18:55

Attach the positive terminal to the positive

18:57

battery and the negative terminal to the negative

18:59

battery.

19:01

Attach the prop timing light to the number 1 spark plug wire.

19:03

Make sure the arrow points

19:06

towards the spark plug. Turn the octane selector to the

19:09

middle position.

19:12

Remove and close the distributor diaphragm vacuum hose

19:14

and start the engine,

19:24

point the timing light at the crankshaft

19:26

and see the number that aligns with the

19:28

mark on the crankshaft. Make sure the

19:31

ignition timing is at 3

19:33

to 7 degrees before TDC.

21:29

Ar again the air adjustment screw to the left and

21:31

look for the highest RPM.

21:45

After that, set the engine RPM to

21:47

around 700 to 800 RPM.

21:51

22:04

After all the work is done, tidy up

22:07

and clean all the tools.

22:25

Don't forget to zero all

22:27

measuring instruments.
