EPA engines have EPA compliance sticker on rocker arm cover. IMPORTANT: DO NOT attempt to adjust the fuel injection pump timing. For most engine problems, the fuel injection pump timing does not have to be adjusted. If the engine performed well at one time, then performance dropped, the fuel injection timing is NOT the problem.… Read More »
[1] – Connect fuel injection nozzle to D01109AA Diesel Fuel Injection Nozzle Tester using parts from D01110AA Adapter Set and 23622 Straight Adapter. Injection Nozzle Test Equipment [2] – IMPORTANT: Use clean, filtered diesel fuel when testing injection nozzles for best results.

The purpose of this test is stop fuel flow to the cylinders (one at a time), while engine is running, to determine what effect that cylinder has on overall engine performance. [1] – Park machine safely. [2] – Remove air cleaner. [3] – Start engine and run at slow idle. [4] – Using two 17… Read More »
The fuel system supplies clean fuel to injection pump and nozzles, and circulates unused fuel back to the tank. An electric fuel transfer pump pumps low-pressure fuel to the fuel filter/water separator and then to the fuel injection pump inlet. Fuel from the transfer pump flows to the fuel shutoff valve in the top of… Read More »
The air intake system filters air needed for combustion. The system components include: – Air inlet tube – Air cleaner housing and cover – Unloader valve (and rubber cleanout valve) – Primary air filter element – Secondary (or safety) air cleaner element – Air filter restriction indicator – outlet tube Air enters the air cleaner… Read More »
[1] – Loosen adjustment bolt (A). [2] – Loosen alternator pivot bolt (B). [3] – Push alternator inward to loosen belt, and outward to tighten belt. [4] – Tighten bolts. [5] – Check belt tension.
[1] – Park machine safely. [2] – Allow engine to cool. [3] – Apply a force of 98 N (22 lb.-force) to the belt midway between water pump and alternator (A), or between crankshaft pulley and alternator (B), using a belt tension gauge and a straight edge.
