If the engine has been stopped for more than one day; Turn it over by hand and turning tool at least two full revolutions before starting it!
Make sure it turns freely.
This in order to avoid equipment damage due to a hydraulic lock if there is an internal fluid leak inside the combustion chambers.
N.B.: Make sure to keep your oil drums closed at all times; DO NOT keep clean oil in open containers, this oil will be contaminated and NOT to be used on
any engine
Check cooling fluid level in expansion tank or radiator. Also the common expansion tank if used.
Ensure that cooling lines are properly clamped and tight. Check for leaks
. Inspect the water pumps for coolant leaks
Check inlet and outlet temperature of the cooling water on the radiator the difference between the readings should be 10-15 degree, If the difference less
than 8, Carryout the radiator cleaning.
Make sure to record the engines cooling water inlet/ out let temperatures at the hottest time a day and place these readings in the Rig Morning Report
N.B.: This is the reading we find useful; do not place average temperatures in the morning report.
Make sure that the radiator pressure cap is correct installed and verify that the cap and the seal is intact.
Be aware: closed cooling systems which are intact are not consuming any water
If water has to be added frequently to the systems; it means there is a leak
Somewhere, locate and repair it
Check the cooling systems PH values to be between 8-10

If the measurements of the valve lash is in the acceptable range, no adjustments are necessary.
Acceptable Valve Lash Range as follows :
Intake : 0.38 mm (0.015 inch)
Exhaust : 0.76 mm (0.030 inch)
End Play:
- Is the axial movement of crank shaft
- movement measured by thou (0.001 inch)
- If end play is out of range, this indicates problem with the attached equipment to the engine(alignment problem) or thrust plate problem(wear)

2. Turn the compressor wheel and the turbine wheel by hand. The assembly should turn freely.
Inspect the compressor wheel and the turbine wheel for contact with the turbocharger housing.
There should not be any visible signs of contact between the turbine wheel or compressor wheel and the turbocharger housing. If there is any indication of contact
between the rotating turbine wheel or the turbocharger wheel and the turbocharger housing, the turbocharger should be reconditioned or replaced.
3. Check the compressor wheel for cleanliness. If only the blade side of the wheel is dirty, dirt and/or moisture are passing through the air filtering system. If oil is
found only on the back side of the wheel, there is a possibility of a failed turbocharger oil seal.
The presence of oil may be the result of extended engine operation at low idle. The presence of oil may also be the result of a restriction of the line for the inlet air
(plugged air filters), which causes the turbocharger to slobber.
5. Clean the turbocharger housing with standard shop solvents and a soft bristle brush.
