Answer: leakage of start air valve is usually by sluggish /seizes

valve action. Preventing fast closure of the valve or the by dirt or foreign particles from lodging on the valve seat and so preventing the valve from fully closed

48 why it is need to keep the main engine to be warm enough to a

temperature of 50 to 60 degree Celsius?

Answer: To avoid condensation in the crankcase and to be able to

get high temperature for the air compressed in the cylinder at the time of maneuvering.
