EB-604 Engine Operations

View product pdf format
This system covers engine operation, engine performance and emission controls. The panel contains exercises with the computer-controlled inputs and outputs. It also provides dynamic demonstration of engine torque and horsepower ratios. The effects of individual engine sensors and engine controls on engine performance and emissions can be demonstrated under different operating conditions. Ambient temperature and altitude controls are provided to show environmental effects on engine operation and performance. The instructor can insert malfunctions, simulating customer complaints and problems that occur daily in the work area.

System components include:

Built-in digital multimeter
Air injection management system

Knock sensor
Throttle body fuel injection

Oxygen sensor
Idle air control system

Throttle position sensor
Engine coolant meter

MAP sensor
Engine RPM meter

Coolant temperature sensor
Emissions meter

EGR system

The instructor can insert malfunctions in electrical or mechanical components. Experiments and troubleshooting exercises develop the necessary problem-solving skills and diagnostic procedures for automotive technicians today.

These exercises include:

Operation and function of major computer output actuators
Detection and repair of exhaust gas recirculation valve when stuck closed and open

Operation and function of major input sensors
Detection and repair of worn and leaking rings

Detection and repair of shorted and/or open sensors: coolant temperature, air charge temperature, manifold absolute pressure, throttle position, air preheat solenoid, idle air control, and exhaust gas oxygen
Detection and repair of air control bypass valve when stuck in bypass and in conventional position

Detection and repair of clogged fuel injector and low pressure fuel pressure regulator
Detection and repair of improperly seated valves
