82 hours including computer research

Last week I posted some pictures of the work done to the Clarke TCV 12 I learned alot about the engine after helping Brandon on the exhaust job. The project took us 8 days primarily because of the size of exhaust and all the coolant and gas lines needed to be taken out of the way to get to the exhaust.On an engine this size everything needs to be handled with an overhead crane.We installed the new gaskets to the exhaust an also to the coolant and fuel lines and replaced some gaskets on one the engines compressors.I then went to help Teason (aka T-Bone ) on calibrating some of the pressure sensors on the 2000 hp Ingersol Rand engines he monitors Where he was teaching me how to calibrate the sensors which monitor pressures and temperatures on the engines all computerized and are also remotely monitored from the Utah main site.I also spent time learning how to adjust and replace intake exhaust and fuel valves on the Ingersol Rand engine monitored by Ray he taught me how to set the valve lash on it I have added some more pictures and will post more during the week.
