M/E Reversing

method 1: duplicate set of cams  for aster operation and camshaft is slided axially
method 2: circumferential transalation of camshaft using a servomotor. The relative movement changes the
fuel pump timing which inturn changes the firing order and astern starting.
method 3: shifting the position of angularly displacable fuel pump rollers  with an air cylinder & a second set of negative cam for the air distributor.(action in exhaust v/v actuator? ans: no action)

Why atomisation test should not be done in slide type fuel valves

Since very small needle lift is obtained in the test equipment result in an unequal pressure distribution in the cut off shaft resulting in a hard contact in a small area along with high frequency oscillations, low lubricity of test oil will increase the chance of seizure. Full lift and high lubricity of heavy oil eliminates this risk  of seizure during normal operation.( Always open and clean slide type valves before testing as cold sticky heavy oil along with small clearances can cause restriction in the movement of the spindle).
