1. General
Some cylinder covers have an indicator valve installed together with a relief valve.
Other cylinder covers have only an indicator valve. This procedure is only applicable
for the cylinder covers that have an indicator valve together with a relief valve (see
Fig. 1).
If the pressure in the compression chamber is more than the specified blow-off setting
of the relief valve, the relief valve opens. The pressure is immediately released. You
must then replace the relief valve as soon as possible. Relief valves cannot be
adjusted or repaired. You must replace a relief valve that leaks.
It is not necessary to do maintenance on the relief valves.
Relief valves that leak, or have damage must be returned the manufacturer for
inspection and repair.
2. Preparation
1) Stop the engine.
3. Removal
1) Open the indicator valve (1) to make
sure that there is no pressure in the
compression chamber.
2) Remove the relief valve (3) and gasket
(2) from the adapter (5).
3) Do a check of the gasket (2) for
damage. If necessary, replace the
gasket.
