Summary

The installation of new fuel system components is often not necessary during a 3208 Engine overhaul. Fuel system components that are used, yet acceptable according to this Guideline, can give the same performance as new components, until the engine's next overhaul.

The information included in this Guideline should serve as an aid in determining whether used components can be used again. Also included in this guideline are salvage (reconditioning) procedures for components such as the governor, fuel pump, housing, fuel injection pump, fuel shutoff housing, and top cover parts that show specific types of wear.

Information on component identification and interchangeability can be found in SEBD1662 Service Magazine article, April 23, 1986.

During salvage procedures, always correct any conditions which could have caused the original failure or wear and never install a component that falls within the "Do Not Use again" criteria

Improved Fuel Pump Plunger Helps Prevent Plunger and Sleeve Scuffing



Illustration 131g06339206
Improved (A) and former (B) fuel pump plungers.

The fuel pump plunger used in the 1W-3010 Fuel Injection Pump Assembly for SMFS governor and fuel injection pump groups has been improved. The improvements include balance grooves as shown in Illustration 131. The balance grooves help prevent plunger and sleeve scuffing associated with poor quality fuels. Plunger scuffing can cause governor instability due to the change in fuel delivery from one cylinder to another or from increased sleeve to plunger friction.

The new plungers can be used on the following machines: 225 (51U), 225B (2ZD), 225D (2SJ), 229 (1GF), 231D (5WJ, 1NK) Excavators, 227 (10W) Loggers, and 613C (92X) Wheel Tractors.

Tamper Resistant Plugs and Bolts



Illustration 135g06339384
Locations of the new 128-7792 (1) and 128-7795 (2) Tamper Resistant Bolts on 3208 Commercial Engines.

The 3208 Commercial Engines will have the new 128-7792 and 128-7795 Tamper Resistant Bolts on the FRC and cover. Illustration 135 shows the locations of the new tamper resistant bolts.

Removal and Installation Procedure

If an adjustment is required with tamper resistant bolts, the bolts must be removed. Use the procedure that follows to remove the tamper resistant bolts.

  1. Use a 1U-5592 Drill Bit (118 degree) or a 1U-5634 Drill Bit (135 degree split point) to drill a 7/64 inch hole in the center of the bolt to be removed.

  2. Use a 4C-3365 Screw Extractor (5/32 - 7/32 inch), in the hole drilled in Step 1, to remove the bolt.

  3. When installing a new tamper resistant bolt, tighten the bolt until the bolt head shears off (approximately 12 ± 3 N·m (8.85072 ± 2.21268 lb ft) for 1/4 inch diameter tamper resistant bolts, or 25 ± 6 N·m (18.43900 ± 4.42536 lb ft) for 5/16 inch diameter tamper resistant bolts).

Marine Engine Fuel Systems

Orifice Reverse Flow Check Valve

Marine (1)(TA)  01Z-11361  01Z4042-11360 
Remanufactured  93Z-3721  93Z1551-3720 
(1) Not applicable to the turbocharged only marine (01Z) or the NA marine (75V).

Valve assembly (B) prevents compression gases from entering the nozzle and fuel lines if the nozzle sticks open due to debris. In most situations, this will allow the next injection stroke(s) to clear the debris from the nozzle.

Valves (A) would not prevent gases from entering the nozzle or fuel lines if the nozzle stuck open due to debris, and the debris could not be cleared out by more injection strokes.

The 1W-6987 Valve Assembly (ORFC) is effective with the engines listed in Table 4. It can be used as a direct replacement for the former 4W-5869 Valve (ODV). These engines have the Cat 7000 Series Nozzles, except for the turbocharged-aftercooled (TA) marine engine. The valves are also identified by notches on the sides of the external fuel line nuts. Change valves only in complete sets.

Governor Housing Check Valve

(1) New valve assembly
(2) 9.0 ± 0.025 mm (0.35433 ± 0.00098 inch) diameter hole, 23 mm (0.90551 inch) deep.

The check valve limits the pump suction pressure inside the cavity and prevents entry of air by the shaft seal. This minimizes the possibility of low power and hard starting.

The 9Y-4966 Valve Assembly is effective with 3208 Marine Engines, 75V9816 and 01Z15404.

The valve can be installed in the governor housing on earlier engines by reaming out the existing hole near the main shaft seal, as shown in Illustration 137. The valve is preset to open at the proper suction pressure and this setting should not be changed

Injection Pump Housing

Fuel Injection Pump Housing Sleeve Bearings

A sleeve bearing is used in the drive end of the fuel injection pump housings used on all 3208 Engines equipped with sleeve metering fuel systems. The 5P-4810 Sleeve Bearing was all bronze. The direct replacement 7W-6335 Sleeve Bearing has steel-backed bronze construction and a slightly larger outside diameter. These changes will produce a tighter fit in the fuel injection pump housings and reduce the possibility of sleeve bearing rotation in the housing.

Electric Shut-Off Groups With Manual Override

Electrical shut-off groups, 12 and 24 volt, with manual override are available on 3208 Marine Engines with energize-to-shut-off fuel solenoid as an attachment. The 7C-0948 Electrical Shut-Off (24 volt) and 7C-0949 Electrical Shut-Off(12 volt) are direct replacements for the earlier shut-off groups.

The manual override feature enables the engine to be shut off in the event of an electrical or solenoid malfunction. The top of the plungers in the new solenoids has internal 1/4-28 threads (2), Illustration 138. A threaded rod can be installed in the top of the plunger through a hole in the rubber boot. The threaded rod can be pushed down to shut off the fuel and stop the engine.

Lines and Nozzles



Illustration 139g06339371

(1) Typical fuel injection line clamp with rubber damper.
(2) Typical metal-to-metal fuel injection line clamp.

Fuel Injection Line Clamps

After repairs, some fuel injection line clamps are being incorrectly tightened. These clamps, fasten two, or more fuel injection lines together to help reduce vibration. Refer to Illustration 138. It is important to use the correct tightening torque to prevent distortion of the clamps and to make sure that the clamps stay tight. Engines with metal-to-metal clamps should be tightened to 2.3 N·m (20.35672 lb in).


NOTICE

Over-tightening a metal-to-metal clamp can result in distorting the clamp and decreasing the clamping ability. Do not reuse distorted metal-to-metal clamps.


Note: The 6V-4980 Torque Screwdriver Tool is available for tightening small fasteners up to 4 N·m (2.95024 lb ft).

Some early model engines used clamps with rubber dampers that should be tightened to 10 N·m (7.37560 lb ft).

Bleed Screw Washer (Seal)



Illustration 140g06339374
Location of washer (1) under the nozzle bleed screw (3208 Engine shown).
(1) Replace washer (seal) under bleed screw.

Anytime the bleed screw on the side of 7000 Series Fuel Nozzles is removed or loosened, it is important to replace the washer (seal) under this screw with a new washer. Refer to Illustration 140. There have been several documented cases where the bleed screw leaked because its washer was not replaced after the screw was removed for service work

Refer to the applicable parts book for the correct washer part number. Tighten the bleed screw to 1.6 ± 0.4 N·m (1.18010 ± 0.29502 lb ft).

"Special instruction"SEHS7292, "Use of 5P-4150 Nozzle Testing Group and 8S-2245 Cleaning Kit" also states that a new washer (seal) should be used. Make a special note in this Special Instruction and in the other publications or wall charts.

Compression Seal Washer (Gas Seal)

Table 7
Compression Seal Washer Identification 
Engine  Fuel Nozzle Part Number  Washer Part Number  Material  Thickness 
3208  4W-7016  7W-4485  Copper  1.27 mm (0.05000 inch) 
3208  7W-7024  7W-4485  Copper  1.27 mm (0.05000 inch) 

The Caterpillar 7000 Series Fuel Injection Nozzle is used on many direct injection 3200 Engines. This nozzle is identified as the 7000 Series because the last four digits of the part number begin with the number 7.

Most of the compression seal washers used on these nozzles have now been changed to a copper material. The nylon compression seal washers could lose a small amount of thickness because of installation force and operating temperatures. The copper compression seal washers provide a more consistent holding force. Table 7 provides the new compression seal washers and provides seal identification for each fuel nozzle and engine application. The compression seal washer, the carbon dam (seal), and the bleed screw seal washer should be replaced each time the nozzle is tested.

Bleed Screw
