Introduction
Do not perform any procedure in this Special Instruction until you read this information and you understand this information.
NOTICE |
---|
Caterpillar continues to provide engines that meet the regulations of various agencies around the world. Each engine is certified to meet emission regulations by using the proper iron, software (flash files), and fuel settings. Unauthorized changes to any of these components may cause an engine to not be compliant with emission regulations. This is considered as tampering. Tampering with an engine can make the reliability and durability of the engine decrease. |
Required Tooling
Use the 215-2592 Kit (Wastegate) in order to calibrate the new actuator kit properly.
Illustration 1 shows the 215-2592 Kit (Wastegate). However, the 213-4269 Adapter As (Crimping) is not shown in Illustration 1.

Note: The air pressure gauge must have a minimum pressure rating of 207 kPa (30 psi). The gauge must also have graduations of 1.72 kPa (0.25 psi).
Note: Test hose (5) must have a 6.35 mm (0.25 inch) inside diameter. This will allow the test hose to connect to the wastegate actuator properly.
You will also need a dial indicator with a base that can be attached to the engine.
Removal Procedure for the Old Wastegate Actuator
- Remove heat shield (10) from the turbocharger and support bracket (11). Also remove the tube that goes from the turbocharger compressor housing to the wastegate actuator.

- Remove nuts (14) from the mounting bolts on actuator (13). Remove the actuator. Refer to Illustrations 5 and 6.
Note: Do not remove the mounting bracket for the actuator.
Note: Make sure that you note the orientation of the hose nipple on the actuator before removing the actuator. Make sure that the new actuator is installed in the same position as the old actuator.

Note: Measure the length of the rod on the old actuator. Rod length (A) on the new actuator must be the same length as the rod on the old actuator.
- Assemble jam nut (15) and rod end (16) onto the new actuator. Use the parts that came with the 332-8662 Actuator Kit . Refer to Illustration 7.
Installing the Actuator

- Install the new actuator to the mounting bracket. Make sure that the hose nipple on the new actuator is oriented in the same position as the old actuator.
- Secure the actuator to the mounting bracket with mounting nuts (14). Make sure that the mounting nuts that are included in the 332-8662 Actuator Kit are used. Torque the mounting nuts to 8 ± 1 N·m (6 ± 0.7 lb ft).
- Connect test hose (5) to the hose nipple on the new actuator.

(5) Test hose (13) Wastegate actuator |
- Apply 165 kPa (24 psi) of air pressure to the new actuator. Place the rod end of the new actuator over the crank pin.
- Relieve all the air pressure from the actuator.
Procedure to Calibrate the Actuator
- Install a dial indicator (B) on the engine. The travel of the rod on the dial indicator must be in-line with the travel of the rod on the actuator. Misalignment between the dial indicator and rod may cause the reading to be incorrect.

- Connect test hose (5) to actuator (13). Use hose clamps (3) to secure the test hose to the actuator.
- Slowly apply air pressure. Make sure to watch the dial indicator.
- Increase air pressure until the rod on the actuator has travelled 1 mm (0.039 inch).
- Observe pressure gauge (2). Record the pressure reading. This is the calibration value.
- Slowly relieve all the air pressure.
- Repeat Steps 4 through 7. Record the pressure reading again.
- Install new clip (12) on the crank pin in order to secure the rod end of the actuator if the value of the calibration is 165 ± 3 kPa (24 ± 0.5 psi). Use the clip that was supplied with the 332-8662 Actuator Kit .

Note: Follow the appropriate procedure below if the calibration value is not 165 ± 3 kPa (24 ± 0.5 psi).
Procedure for the Actuator if the Calibration Value is above 165 kPa (24 psi)
- Remove the rod end from the crank pin. Turn the rod end in a counterclockwise direction. The actuator calibration value will decrease approximately 4 kPa (0.6 psi) for every one and a half turns of the rod end. Adjust the rod end accordingly to the last actuator calibration value.
- Perform the calibration test again. Refer to the "Procedure to Calibrate the Actuator" above.
- Install new clip (12) on the crank pin in order to secure the rod end of the actuator if the actuator calibration value is 165 ± 3 kPa (24 ± 0.5 psi). Use the clip that was supplied with the 322-9352 Actuator Kit .
- Perform Steps 1 through 3 if the actuator calibration value is still above 165 kPa (24 psi).
Procedure for the Actuator if the Calibration Value is below 165 kPa (24 psi)
- Remove the rod end from the crank pin. Turn the rod end in a clockwise direction. The actuator calibration value will increase approximately 4 kPa (0.6 psi) for every one and a half turns of the rod end. Adjust the rod end accordingly to the last actuator calibration value.
- Perform the calibration test again. Refer to the "Procedure to Calibrate the Actuator" above.
- Install new clip (12) on the crank pin in order to secure the rod end of the actuator if the actuator calibration value is 165 ± 3 kPa (24 ± 0.5 psi). Use the clip that was supplied with the 332-8662 Actuator Kit .
- Perform Steps 1 through 3 if the actuator calibration value is still below 165 kPa (24 psi).
Final Assembly
After the actuator has been calibrated properly, perform the following steps.
- Make sure that you tighten the locknut (15) in Illustration 7 after the actuator has been calibrated.
- Use the 213-4269 Adapter As (Crimping) in order to crimp the threads on the locknut (15). This will prevent the locknut from becoming loose.
- Reinstall the support bracket and the heat shield for the turbocharger.
- Reattach the hose between the turbocharger compressor housing to the wastegate actuator.
