CAT REMAN ANNOUNCES AN APPEARANCE CHANGE TO CERTAIN 3406 AND 3500 ELECTRONIC UNIT INJECTORS Caterpillar

Cat Reman announces an appearance change to certain 3406 and 3500 electronic unit injectors. Effective immediately, certain remanufactured electronic unit injectors for 3406 and 3500 engines will be produced with stators, which have been ground slightly around the outside to remove potentially obsolete identification information. In many cases, these remanufactured injectors were previously produced with a metal sleeve around the outside of the stator to cover any potentially obsolete identifying information. Dealers will see both sleeved and ground stators for some period of time. This change will not impact quality, performance, form, fit, or function.

Effective immediately, Figure 1 and Figure 2 will both represent acceptable appearance for the affected electronic unit injector part numbers. Table 1 lists all affected part numbers.

Core Acceptance Criteria for Cat Reman parts is simple, visual, and requires no special tools. Consult the Unit Injectors Electronic Core Acceptance Criteria (SELD0226) for complete details.
