DIY ud 15 engine repair

In detail: do-it-yourself repair of the ud 15 engine from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Engines UD 25 and UD 15 were produced many years ago, but are still used by amateurs of such equipment. Despite the fact that they are more than a dozen years old, they serve faithfully to their owners. Such engines were used to drive electrical power units and mobile power plants, various agricultural, construction and road machines, including MTZ walk-behind tractors, often used on homemade mini tractors.

Stationary subcompact engines UD-15, UD-25 and their modifications are designed on the basis of the MEMZ-966 (965) engine of the Zaporozhets automobile. The UD-15 engine is single-cylinder, and the UD-25 is two-cylinder. Both UD models are made according to the same design scheme and are maximally unified.

Listening to the engine UD 25 and UD 15 in order to diagnose malfunctions

Listening to the engine during its operation allows you to determine the state of the main parts in the places of their connections (landings). The knock of the piston, which occurs when the pistons are badly worn, is well audible on an unheated engine on the left side of the cylinder. The knock of the piston pin, which occurs when there is a large gap between the pin and the connecting rod or the pin and the piston, is heard in the upper part of the cylinder head, and, with a sharp increase in revolutions, the knock increases.

The knock of the connecting rod, which occurs when there is a large clearance in the connecting rod bearing, is best heard in the upper part of the crankcase near the cylinder. The noise of rolling bearings, which occurs during their wear, is heard near their installation sites. Gear noise occurs when the meshing clearance is increased. The knock of the rocker arms, which occurs when the clearance between the valve and the rocker arm is increased, is heard in the upper part of the head.

Also on these motoblocks the SK 6 and SK 12 engines were used. Here is the user's manual for these engines.

UD 15 engines were installed on the MTZ walk-behind tractor. Detailed information on MTZ 05, MTZ 06/12 walk-behind tractors is posted on the corresponding pages of the site.

The K-16M (K45M) carburetor is installed on the UD-15, UD-25 engines. The carburetor device is shown in fig. 10, 1 1. Carburetor 3 (Fig. 10) is adapted to work with a centrifugal regulator: throttle valve 6 is controlled by a lever with a sphere, which is acted upon by the regulator lever 7. For manual control of the throttle, there is a leash in the upper part 2. Air damper 9 is operated manually.

The carburetor provides the ability (if necessary) to adjust the engine at low idle speed. The adjustment is carried out by the stop adjusting screw 4 located on the throttle lever in the upper part. Low idle speed should not exceed 1600 rpm. Adjustment of the mixture quality at idle speed is made with screw 5.

Fuel is supplied to the carburetor by a diaphragm fuel pump 10 from a separate gas tank not connected to the engine. The fuel pump is operated by a cam located on the camshaft. The design provides a lever for the manual drive of the fuel pump.

Air enters the carburetor through an inertial oil filter 1. The fuel level in the float chamber is maintained constant (19 ± 2 mm) by means of a float 1 (Fig. 11) and a shut-off needle 2. With the float lowered, the channel through which fuel comes from the gasoline pump, open. The fuel, filling the float chamber, raises the float, which closes the fuel supply channel with a shut-off needle. There is a float sink in the float chamber cover. The carburetor float chamber is not balanced.The idle system is fed with fuel up to the main jet.

CARBURETOR OPERATION

Engine starting... The engine is started with a closed throttle valve so that the air between the valve and the wall of the mixing chamber flows at a speed sufficient to atomize the fuel. In this case, although the fuel is supplied through the main jet, it is mainly the idle system that works. Only a small part of the gasoline flowing from the main jet, mainly light fractions, will participate in the mixture formation.

Idling... When the engine is running at minimum idle speed, the throttle valve is open 1-2 °. The fuel-air emulsion enters through a hole adjustable by screw 4 (Fig. 10) located behind the throttle valve. As the throttle valve is opened further, the second hole in the idle system also enters the space behind the throttle valve, and fuel begins to flow through both holes. When the engine is idling with a regulator (n = 3000 rpm, throttle opening - 5 -7 °), in addition to the idling system, fuel is supplied through the main nozzle-atomizer

Medium loads. As the throttle valve opens, the vacuum in the diffuser increases, and the fuel supply through the main nozzle-atomizer increases. The role of the main dosing system is increasing. Thus, at medium loads, the fuel supply is ensured by the joint operation of the idle system and the main metering system.
