Chrysler Master Tech - 1949, Volume 3-3 The Story of Valves

[@MegaMarclar]

Going back on these old videos teaches techniques lost to time. Some of these lessons are better than any modern class

Going to the David Rankin jr Trade school in the seventies these film strips were invaluable... sure brings back a lot of memories...

Invaluable information for learning the old ways! I am doing a 1950 Dodge Power Wagon

Wish I still had my '52 Cranbrook. DAMN the Chrysler engineers of that era were extraordinary.

I saw a great series of videos of a Chrysler flathead 6 being rebuilt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b16bZJeFjL2efJo I have heard that the water distribution tube is unique to these Chrysler flathead engines. Valve lash adjustments are still in use on some modern SOHC and DOHC engines. However, people rarely ever adjust them. When dealing with a Honda CRV, people eventually burn a valve.... after a little over 200,000 miles. One nice thing about Honda is that they rocker type cam followers and use lash adjustment screws. Some engines use mechanical bucket type cam followers in the following ways: 1. A replaceable shim is installed over the cam bucket. You can buy a specialty tool to compress that bucket and spring and easily remove the shim. 2. A replaceable shim is under the cam bucket. This is found on engines that rev too high for the shim over bucket systems. You have to remove cams. 3. A replaceable bucket. You have to buy a completely new cam bucket that is a different thickness than the existing unit in order to adjust lash.
