engine is cleaned then boring and honing is done to remove wear . The valve is
grinded to proper finish and valve seat is lapped. The damaged piston is replaced by a
new one. . The weared crankshaft is ground so that ovality and taper are within
permissible limits crank shaft is coated with recommended lubricant

pump test bench Fuel filter is necessary to supply clean fuel which needs to be replaced
at regular intervals Facilities have been provided for suitable testing of the injectors,
which includes

and the needle is lapped. Spray test: The injector is fixed up as done earlier and
pressure gauge is disconnected by closing the valve. The tester is worked up four times
and a second and the spray pattern is noted. If the spray pattern is in the form of a stream
or jet, the needle and the nozzle body seat requires grinding
10. 10. Suspension Section After prolonged use or over loading, spring assembly gets
