HANDY MAN S WORKSHOP AND LABORATORY 383 As the engine shown in the drawing is of the automatic intaketype, the intake valves will take care of themselves. Turn theengine over toward the front until the exhaust valve begins toopen, as shown by the compression of the valve spring. Continueturning until the valve is full open, when a wire inserted throughthe spark-plug hole will show that the piston is at the top of thecylinder or at the upper dead center. At this point the flywheelwill revolve some distance without the pistons moving. Markthe wire, and then turn the wheel one more complete revolution.
