Introduction

This section provides the setup and adjustment procedures for testing and adjusting Fuel Injection Pumps. The fuel injection pumps are tested using the Fuel Injection Equipment Test Stand. See Special Instruction SEHS8200, "Using the Fuel Injection Equipment Test Stand:" for operating instructions.

These pumps can also be tested on earlier fuel injection test benches using the same tooling and procedures. See Special Instruction SEHS7465.

Shutoff Device Connected

(18) Terminals
(19) Cables

11. Connect cables (19) to terminals (18).

NOTE: This connects the energized-to-run shutoff device to the test bench. Polarity does not matter.

12. Be sure the 12/24 volt switch on back of the test bench is set to 12 volts and the circuit trip switch is in the "ON" position.

13. Be sure the lube oil switch is turned to the "OFF" position.

NOTE: Lube oil is not used with this pump.

14. Turn test switch "ON" and adjust pressure to specified pressure.

15. Adjust test oil temperature to 45 ± 2°C.

16. Be sure the test bench drives the pump in the specified direction.


Spring Connected to Throttle

(10) 1U5431 Fuel Line Assembly

b. Turn bench fuel pressure ON as soon as specified vacuum is achieved.

22. Set transfer pump pressure by stopping the test bench, remove fuel inlet (11).


Fuel Inlet Line Removed


Setting Transfer Pump Pressure

(24) 4C6827 Screwdriver

22. To adjust pressure, turn internal adjusting screw with 4C6827 Screwdriver (24). Clockwise adjustment increases the pressure. Counterclockwise adjustment decreases the pressure. Repeat this step until the pressure is set correctly.

23. Close the transfer pump outlet line shutoff valve.

24. Check return test oil flow.

b. Run pump at specified speed in TMI and check return flow.

c. After the check is complete, connect the pump return port on test bench.

25. Check pump housing pressure.

a. Run the test bench to the specified speed.


Setting Timing Advance

(25) 4C6842 Screwdriver
(26) Nut

26. Set the timing advance by loosening nut (26) and adjusting the trimmer screw with 4C6842 Screwdriver (25) until the specified timing is achieved.

27. Run the bench to the specified speed. Make sure flows are correct and the governor is operating properly.

28. If the governor is not operating properly, then stop then bench.

NOTE: The top cover should not need to be remove if the fuel pump was assembled properly. If the top cover does need to be removed, use the following procedures.


Drain Pan Installed

(26) Drain Pan

29. Put drain pan (26) under the pump to catch the fuel that will leak from the pump.


Remove Top Cover

(27) Bolt
(28) Bolts (three)
(29) Top Cover

30. Loosen bolt (27) to drain fuel from the pump. Remove bolt (27) and remove the three bolts (28) from the top cover (29). Remove top cover (29).


Adjusting Fuel Flow

(30) 4C6728 Screwdriver

31. If fuel flow is not correct, remove the front screw and spring. Adjust the internal screw with 4C6728 Screwdriver (30).

NOTE: If the roller-to-roller dimension was set correctly, this step is unnecessary.

32. Install the top cover (29).
