Adjusting valves on a Kohler OHV (Overhead Valve) engine involves a precise process to ensure optimal engine performance. Firstly, ensure the engine is cool. Rotate the crankshaft to position the piston on the cylinder you are adjusting at the top dead center (TDC) of the compression stroke. This is crucial for accurate adjustment. Locate the valve cover and remove it to access the rocker arms and valve stems. Consult your engine’s manual for the specific valve clearance specifications, as these can vary. For adjustment, you will typically need a feeler gauge, a wrench for the rocker arm nut, and a screwdriver for the valve adjustment screw. Loosen the locking nut on the rocker arm and adjust the clearance by turning the adjustment screw until the feeler gauge slides between the valve stem and rocker arm with slight resistance. Hold the adjustment screw in place and tighten the locking nut. Double-check the clearance after tightening to ensure it hasn’t changed. Repeat the ...

Q what happens if you mix engine oil

Mixing engine oils of different viscosities or types (such as synthetic with conventional) can lead to suboptimal performance and potential damage to your engine. While modern oils are designed to be compatible to a degree, mixing reduces the effectiveness of the oil’s protective and lubricating properties. Each oil has specific additives and characteristics engineered for certain conditions. By mixing, you dilute these additives, possibly leading to increased wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and a higher likelihood of engine deposits. If in an emergency, mixing might be unavoidable, but it’s imperative to replace the oil with the correct type as soon as possible. Always consult your vehicle’s manual or a professional mechanic to avoid making a costly mistake.
