3406C Pump And Governor Changes Provide Improved Oil And Fuel Leak Resistence{7555}

Usage:


All Caterpillar Machines Powered By 3406B And 3406C Engines With The New Scroll Fuel System (NSFS)

Description of Change: A new O-ring seal and new gaskets are made with materials that are capable of resisting higher temperatures. As a result, the improved O-ring seal and gaskets can provide greater resistance to oil and fuel leaks in the pump and governor.

Adaptable To: Chart 1 lists the new and former O-ring seal and gaskets that are contained in the governor and fuel injector pump group of all Caterpillar Machines powered by 3406B and 3406C Engines with the New Scroll Fuel System (NSFS).

The improved O-ring seal and gaskets are effective with serial number 41Z6538-Up and are adaptable to first production of all Caterpillar Machines powered by 3406B and 3406C Engines with the New Scroll Fuel System.
