Pipe Plug Used On Electronic Control Group (MAPS Sensor) {1917}

Usage:


G3408C (3WR, 8YR),
G3412 (6ZM),
G3508 (4WD, 9TG),
G3512 (5JD, 7NJ),
G3516 (8LD, 4EK, 5PN)Industrial;

Description of Change: One of the plugs in the electronic control group (MAPS Sensor) in the above engines has changed. The improvement calls for a non vented plug to replace the vented plug. The non vented plug prevents moisture from entering the sensor.

NOTE: The electronic sensor group should be kept completely dry in order to operate properly. Changing to the non vented plug may solve problems with the electronic sensor group.

Adaptable To: The 5M-6213 Pipe Plug replaces the former 9X-0423 Plug, adaptable to the above engines back to first production.

NOTE: 1E2200 Pipe Sealant is recommended for use with the 5M-6213 Pipe Plug.


NOTICE

Make SURE that the pipe sealant does not go inside the electronic sensor group when installing the 5M-6213 Pipe Plug.
