Eccentric Shaft Bypass Valve

WARNING:
  • Engine oil temperature will increase during the inspection and become very dangerous. Be careful not to burn yourself during the inspection.
  1. Put the eccentric shaft bypass valve in a container filled with engine oil.
  2. Heat the container and verify that the projection protrudes more than the minimum specification when the engine oil temperature is 60°C {140 °F}  .
    • If it is less than the minimum specification, replace the eccentric shaft bypass valve.
