Fuel Injection Lines


Fuel Injections Lines With Support Bracket
(1) A vertical line through the number one injection pump.

The nuts that hold a fuel injection line to an injection pump must be tightened to the correct torque. If the nut is loose, fuel will leak from the connection. If the nut is tightened too tight, the inside diameter of the line will become smaller and cause a restriction to the flow of fuel in the line. Use a torque wrench and a 5P0144 Fuel Line Socket to tighten the fuel injection line nuts to 40 ± 7 N·m (30 ± 5 lb ft)

------ WARNING! ------

Be sure the fuel injection line clamps are installed in the correct location. Incorrectly installed clamps may allow the fuel injection lines to vibrate and become damaged. The damaged lines may leak and cause a fire.

--------WARNING!------

Tighten metal-to-metal clamps to a torque of ... 2.3 N·m (20 lb in)

NOTE: The 6V4980 Torque Screwdriver Tool Group is available for applying the correct torque.

3. Install the pressure switch (2) and a 8T0848 Indicator in the open ends of the tee as shown.

4. Connect the 8T0500 Circuit Tester between the terminals of the pressure switch.


Test Tools Installed

5. Start the engine. Open the shutoff valve a small amount. Look at the pressure on the 8T0848 Indicator. When the pressure gets to the range given in the specifications, the circuit tester light must go on.

6. Close the shutoff valve. Stop the engine. Open the shutoff valve a small amount. Look at the pressure on the 8T0848 Indicator. When the pressure gets to the range given in the specifications, close the valve. After five minutes open the valve fully. The circuit tester light must stay on a minimum of 30 seconds and a maximum of 15 minutes after the valve is fully opened.

Shutoff Solenoid

1. Make sure the linkage to which the solenoid is connected does not give more than the normal amount of restriction.

2. Connect a voltmeter between the terminals of the solenoid.

3. Activate the solenoid circuit. If the voltage shown on the meter is less than the needed voltage, the circuit has a failure. Check the other components of the circuit. If the voltage is the same or more than the needed voltage, make a replacement of the solenoid.

Mechanical Oil Pressure And Water Temperature Shutoff


Mechanical Oil Pressure And Water Temperature Shutoff (Typical Illustration)
(1) Outlet line. (2) Inlet line. (3) Drain line. (4) Shut down cylinder knob. (5) Water temperature control valve. (6) Line (from the shut down cylinder inlet port. (7) Oil pressure shut down cylinder. (8) Oil pressure shutoff valve.

1. Make a restriction to the flow of air through the radiator or to the flow of coolant through the engine.

2. Install a probe from the 4C6500 Thermometer Group as close as possible to the water temperature control valve (5).

3. Start the engine. The engine must stop in one minute or less from the time the temperature of the coolant gets to the opening temperature of the control valve. If the engine does not stop, do the steps that follow.

4. Stop the engine. Disconnect oil lines (1, 2 and 3) from the control valve.

5. Remove the water temperature control valve (5) from the engine and install the 3J5389 Plug in its place.

6. Connect a 5P8869 Connector and a 4K7965 Hose Assembly to lines (1, 2 and 3).

12. Connect the 8T0848 Indicator on the open end of the 60210 Tee.

13. Start the engine. Run the engine at full load rpm.

14. Slowly open the 5P7486 Valve. Look at the pressure indicator. Oil pressure shut down circuitry must stop the engine when the oil pressure is between 69 and 97 kPa (10 and 14 psi). If the engine does not stop the oil pressure shutoff valve (8) or the oil pressure shut down cylinder (7) have a failure or there could be a restriction in the lines (1, 2 or 3).

15. To check the oil pressure shutoff valve (8) and the oil pressure shutdown cylinder, remove line (6). With extra tubing direct line (6) into the engine oil filler port. Repeat Steps 13 and 14. Instead of the engine shutting down a stream of oil should exit line (6) into the engine oil filler port. If this does not happen line (6) could have a restriction or the oil pressure shutoff valve (8) has a failure.

NOTE: A small trickle of oil will always exit line (6) but will change to a stream when the oil pressure shutoff valve (8) is activated. This is because the oil pressure shutoff valve (8) consists of a pilot valve and a control valve.

16. Make repairs as necessary and repeat Steps 13 and 14.

17. When oil exists line (6) properly at the correct pressure install line (6). Repeat Steps 13 and 14. If the engine still does not shut down replace the oil pressure shut down cylinder.

18. When the oil pressure shutoff stops the engine at correct pressure remove the tools and install the water temperature control valve (5).

19. Do Steps 1, 2 and 3 again. If the water temperature control valve (5) does not cause the engine to stop make a replacement of the control valve.

Introduction

The information in this section is a supplement to the troubleshooting methods of the previous section. This material is much more descriptive and detailed for the user who is less familiar with these components. The Troubleshooting Section makes constant references to this section when more detailed information is necessary to complete a diagnosis, or to calibrate or test a component.

Service Procedure A


Electronic Speed Switch (ESS)
(1) Verify button. (2) Reset button. (3) "LED" overspeed light. (4) Seal screw plug (overspeed). (5) Seal screw plug (crank terminate). (6) Seal screw plug (oil step).

Overspeed Verify Test

1. Run the engine at rated speed and push verify button (1) in for a moment. This will cause the speed switch to activate and cause engine shutdown.

NOTE: Any time the engine speed is 75 percent or more of the overspeed setting, engine shutdown will occur if the verify button is pushed.

Example: For an engine with a rated speed of 1800 rpm, the overspeed setting is 2124 rpm (see SPEED SPECIFICATION CHART and Note A). The overspeed verify test will cause shutdown of the engine at 75 percent (± 25 rpm) of the overspeed setting of 2124 rpm. In this example, 75 percent of 2124 rpm is approximately 1593 rpm. If the verify button is pushed at an engine speed of approximately 1593 rpm or above, engine shutdown will occur.

The "LED" overspeed light (3) will come on and stay on until the reset button is pushed after an overspeed switch shutdown. Before restarting the engine, push in reset button (2) for a moment. This will reset the speed switch, and the "LED" overspeed light (3) will go off. The emergency stop switch (ES) must now be manually reset before the engine can be started again

NOTE A: The engine overspeed setting rpm is 118 percent of rated engine rpm.

NOTE B: To verify overspeed shutdown system operation, push in the VERIFY button for a moment. The engine must shut down at 75 percent or more of overspeed setting.

NOTE D: Input Voltage: Maximum 40 VDC; Minimum 8 VDC.

Service Procedure B


Electronic Speed Switch (ESS)
(1) Verify button. (2) Reset button. (3) "LED" overspeed light. (4) Seal screw plug (overspeed). (5) Seal screw plug (crank terminate). (6) Seal screw plug (oil step).

Overspeed Calibration

1. Remove lockwire and seal from seal screw plugs (4), (5) and (6). Remove seal screw plug (4) from access hole for overspeed adjustment screw.

2. Use a small screwdriver and lightly turn overspeed adjustment potentiometer twenty turns in direction of "MAX ARROW" (clockwise).

NOTE: The overspeed adjustment screw is made so that it cannot cause damage to the potentiometer, or be removed, if the adjustment screw is turned too many turns in either direction.

3. Run the engine at 75 percent of desired overspeed setting rpm. Make reference to the SPEED SPECIFICATION CHART (in Service Procedure A).

4. With engine at 75 percent of overspeed setting rpm, push VERIFY button (1) and hold in. Turn overspeed adjustment potentiometer in the direction opposite of "MAX ARROW" (counterclockwise) slowly until "LED" overspeed light (3) comes ON. Engine will shut down if speed switch is connected to the fuel shutoff solenoid and/or the air inlet shutoff solenoid.

5. To reset speed switch, push in reset button (2).

6. Slowly turn overspeed adjustment potentiometer approximately one turn clockwise and do Steps 3, 4 and 5 again.

NOTE: More adjustment may be needed to get the correct setting. Turn adjustment potentiometer clockwise to increase speed setting, and counterclockwise to decrease speed setting. Turn adjustment potentiometer very slowly only a small amount at a time until adjustment is correct.

7. When the speed setting is correct, install seal screw plug (4) in overspeed adjustment access hole. Tighten screw to a torque of 0.20 ± 0.03 N·m (2 ± .3 lb in). Install the lockwire and seal (if crank termination and oil step adjustments are complete).

Service Procedure C


Electronic Speed Switch (ESS)
(1) Verify button. (2) Reset button. (3) "LED" overspeed light. (4) Seal screw plug (overspeed). (5) Seal screw plug (crank terminate). (6) Seal screw plug (oil step).

Crank Terminate Speed Calibration

1. Remove lockwire and seal from seal screw plugs (4), (5) and (6). Remove seal screw plug (5) from access hole for crank terminate adjustment screw.

2. Use a small screwdriver and lightly turn overspeed adjustment potentiometer twenty turns in direction of "MAX ARROW" (clockwise).

NOTE: The crank terminate screw is made so that it cannot cause damage to the potentiometer, or be removed, if the adjustment screw is turned too many turns in either direction.

3. Turn the crank terminate adjustment potentiometer twelve turns in a direction opposite of "MAX ARROW" (counterclockwise) for an approximate crank terminate setting.

4. Connect a voltmeter (6V7070 Multimeter or a voltmeter of same accuracy) with the positive lead at ESS-12 and the negative lead at ESS-5. Start the engine and make a note of the speed at which the system voltage is canceled (this is the speed at which the DC starting system disengages). See the SPEED SPECIFICATION CHART (in Service Procedure A) for the correct crank terminate speed.

NOTE: If this setting is not correct, do Steps 5, 6 and 7. If the setting was correct, go to Step 7.

5. Stop the engine and turn the crank terminate adjustment potentiometer one full turn in the correct direction (clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease).

6. With the voltmeter still connected as in Step 4, start the engine and make a note of the speed at which the system voltage is canceled (this is the speed at which the DC starting system disengages). If needed, make more small adjustments until the crank terminate speed is correct.

7. Install seal screw plug (5) in crank terminate adjustment access hole. Tighten to a torque of 0.20 ± 0.03 N·m (2 ± .3 lb in). Install the lockwire and seal (if overspeed and oil step adjustments are complete).

Service Procedure D


Electronic Speed Switch (ESS)
(1) Verify button. (2) Reset button. (3) "LED" overspeed light. (4) Seal screw plug (overspeed). (5) Seal screw plug (crank terminate). (6) Seal screw plug (oil step).

Oil Step Speed Calibration

1. Remove lockwire and seal from seal screw plugs (4), (5) and (6). Remove seal screw plug (6) from access hole for oil step adjustment screw.

2. Use a small screwdriver and lightly turn oil step adjustment potentiometer twenty turns in the direction of "MAX ARROW" (counterclockwise). This will lower the oil step speed setting to its lowest value.

NOTE: The oil step adjustment screw is made so it cannot cause damage to the potentiometer, or be removed, if the adjustment screw is turned too many turns in either direction.

3. Use a 6V7070 Multimeter (or a voltmeter of same accuracy) to check for positive (+) voltage at terminal ESS-13 [negative (-) voltage is at terminal ESS-5].

4. Make reference to SPEED SPECIFICATION CHART (in Service Procedure A). For a particular engine rating, find the specified rpm in column for Oil Step Speed Setting. Run the engine at this specified rpm.

5. With the engine running, look into the oil step adjustment access hole. A red "LED" (light emitting diode) light will be ON. A positive (+) voltage will be seen at terminal ESS-13, nine seconds after "LED" light comes ON. Now turn the oil step adjustment potentiometer clockwise until the red light in the oil step access hole goes OFF. When the light goes OFF, this indicates that the oil step rpm setting is above the present running rpm of the engine. Slowly turn the adjustment potentiometer counterclockwise until the light comes back ON. After a nine second delay, positive (+) voltage will again be seen at terminal ESS-13.

6. When the oil step speed setting is correct, install seal screw plug (6) into the adjustment access hole for the oil step function. Tighten plug to a torque of 0.20 ± 0.03 N·m (2 ± .3 lb in). If all other adjustments are complete (overspeed and crank terminate), install lockwire and seal.

Service Procedure E

Magnetic Pickup Check

1. Connect a 6V7070 Multimeter (or a voltmeter of same accuracy) to electronic speed switch common terminal (ESS-3) and signal terminal (ESS-4). Set the meter voltage scale to a scale greater than 1.5 VAC. Start the engine and run at idle rpm or 600 rpm (whichever is greater).

If the measured voltage is 1.5 VAC or more, the operation of the magnetic pickup is correct. If measured voltage is less than 1.5 VAC, go to Step 2.


NOTICE

The magnetic pickup is an important part of the ETR Shutoff Protection System. It is required for crank terminate, overspeed and governing. Be ready to take action when the magnetic pickup is disconnected.


2. Stop the engine. Disconnect the wiring from the magnetic pickup at the plug-in connector and connect the voltmeter to magnetic pickup connector terminals. Start the engine and run at idle rpm or 600 rpm (whichever is greater).

If the measured voltage is 1.5 VAC or more, repair or replace the wiring between the magnetic pickup and the electronic speed switch. If the measured voltage is less than 1.5 VAC, go to Step 3.


Magnetic Pickup
(1) Clearance dimension. (2) Locknut.

3. Remove the magnetic pickup from the engine flywheel housing and turn the flywheel until a gear tooth is directly in the center of the threaded opening for the magnetic pickup. Install the magnetic pickup again in the threads of the flywheel housing.

4. Turn (by hand) in a clockwise direction until the end of the magnetic pickup just makes contact with the gear tooth. Now turn the magnetic pickup back out 1/2 turn (180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction) to get the correct air gap [clearance dimension (1)]. Now tighten locknut (2) to a torque of 45 ± 7 N·m (33 ± 5 lb ft).

NOTE: Do not let the magnetic pickup turn while locknut (2) is tightened.

Do Step 2 again. If voltage is still less than 1.5 VAC, replace the magnetic pickup.

Service Procedure F

Diode Test

Use the 6V7070 or the 6V7800 Multimeter for this test, and turn the multimeter dial to the Diode position. Disconnect the diode from its circuit.

1. Connect the positive probe of the multimeter to one end of the diode and the negative probe to the other end of the diode. Make a note of the multimeter reading.

2. Now reverse the multimeter connections on the diode. Make a note of these readings.

If the reading was high in one test and low in the other test, the diode is good. If the readings were the same in both tests (either high or low), the diode is defective and needs to be replaced.

Service Procedure G

Pressure Switch Test

Use the 1U5470 Engine Pressure Group and a continuity check for this test. If an access hole to the same pressure is not close or not available, remove the switch and install a tee at this location. Install the pressure switch in one side of the tee and connect the correct pressure indicator (from the 1U5470 Engine Pressure Group) to the other side of the tee.

NOTE: This test can also be performed on bench by using air pressure if the correct fittings are available.

With the wires disconnected from the pressure switch, check continuity of the switch terminals with the engine stopped and also with the engine running at the correct speed. Make a note of the pressure indicator reading when the continuity of the switch terminals changes. Compare this pressure reading with the correct specifications for the switch.

NOTE: If the pressure switch has three terminals, first check the continuity of both the N/O and N/C terminals to the common terminal with the engine stopped. Now use the N/O terminal (had no continuity when the engine was stopped) for the test with the engine running. This will make sure that, when the switch breaks contact across the N/C terminal, it moves all the way to close across the N/O set of contacts at the other terminal.

Service Procedure H

Slave Relay Test

Remove the relay(s) from the junction box. Connect the negative lead of a 24 volt source to terminal 5 of the relay and connect the positive lead to terminal 1. Use a voltmeter to check the relay as follows:

1. Touch the negative probe of the voltmeter to terminal 5 and the positive probe to terminal 2. Voltage reading should be 24 volts.

2. With negative probe of voltmeter still at terminal 5, touch positive probe to terminal 3. Voltage reading should be zero.

Now put a jumper across terminal 1 and terminal 4.

3. Touch negative probe of voltmeter to terminal 5 and touch the positive probe to terminal 2. Voltage reading should be zero.

4. With negative probe still at terminal 5, touch positive probe to terminal 3. Voltage reading should be 24 volts.

If any of the readings from the above tests are incorrect or opposite from those shown, the relay is bad and should be replaced.

Service Procedure J

Water Temperature Switch

Use the 8T0470 Thermistor Thermometer Group and the 8T0500 Continuity Testing Light for this test. Install a probe from the thermometer group into the water manifold as close as possible to the temperature switch. Unplug the electrical connector from the temperature switch.

NOTE: DO NOT attempt to test the temperature switch off the engine. The switch uses water flow and temperature both to activate the switch at the correct temperature.

With the wires disconnected from the temperature switch, check the continuity of both the N/O and the N/C terminals to the common terminal with the engine stopped. Now use the N/O terminal (had not continuity when the engine was stopped) for the test with the engine running. This will make sure that, when the switch breaks contact across the N/C terminal, it moves all the way to close across the N/O set of contacts at the other terminal.

Start the engine and with the engine under load, restrict the radiator or heat exchanger flow to bring up the engine temperature. When engine temperature reaches the activation point of the temperature switch, the N/O terminal should close. The switch is okay. If the N/O terminal does not close, the switch is defective.

Immediately reduce the load and reduce the jacket water temperature. Allow the engine to run at idle until the temperature returns to normal before stopping the engine. Replace the switch if necessary and reconnect wiring before starting the engine.

Service Procedure K

Protection System Battery Drain

There are two components used in the electric protection system that continue to draw small amounts of current from the battery when the engine is not running. These components are the electronic speed switch (ESS) and the charging alternator.

For a system that uses only one of these components, an engine can remain shut down for months without discharging the battery enough to prevent starting. Systems that use both of the above components may remain idle for a month or more without excessive battery drain Cold weather decreases battery efficiency and will reduce these time periods even more.

In most applications, the engine is started weekly or a battery charger is used to keep the battery at full charge, so few problems have been noted. For those applications where the engine is not used for extended periods (such as rental fleets), the suggestions that follow can be used to prevent battery discharge.

If the engine will not be operated for several weeks (without a battery charger), disconnect the battery cable from the negative (-) side of the battery. If it is expected that this condition will happen frequently, the 7N0718 Battery Disconnect Switch can be installed for convenience. This switch should be installed between the negative terminal of the battery and the negative terminal of the starting motor.

A suitable bracket should be fabricated to mount the switch close to either the battery or the starting motor (the switch can be mounted inside the power distribution box on generator set engines). In all applications, the 7N0718 Battery Disconnect Switch should be mounted within 30 degrees of vertical.

Service Procedure L

Air Inlet Temperature Switch

Use the 8T0470 Thermistor Thermometer Group and the 8T0500 Continuity Testing Light for this test. Install a probe from the thermometer group into the inlet air manifold as close as possible to the temperature switch. Unplug the electrical connector from the temperature switch.

With the wires disconnected from the temperature switch, check the continuity of both the N/O and the N/C terminals to the common terminal with the engine stopped. Now use the N/O terminal (had not continuity when the engine was stopped) for the test with the engine running. This will make sure that, when the switch breaks contact across the N/C terminal, it moves all the way to close across the N/O set of contacts at the other terminal.

Start the engine and with the engine under load, restrict the aftercooler, radiator or heat exchanger water flow to bring up the engine inlet air temperature. When engine inlet air temperature reaches the activation point of the temperature switch, the N/O terminal should close. The switch is okay. If the N/O terminal does not close, the switch is defective.

Immediately reduce the load and reduce the inlet air temperature. Allow the engine to run at idle until the temperature returns to normal before stopping the engine. Replace the switch if necessary and reconnect wiring before starting the engine.

Electric Starting System

Use the multimeter in the DCV range to find starting system components which do not function.

Move the start control switch to activate the starter solenoid. Starter solenoid operation can be heard as the pinion of the starting motor is engaged with the ring gear on the engine flywheel.

If the solenoid for the starting motor will not operate, it is possible that the current from the battery did not get to the solenoid. Fasten one lead of the multimeter to the connection (terminal) for the battery cable on the solenoid. Put the other lead to a good ground. A zero reading is an indication that there is a broken circuit from the battery. More testing is necessary when there is a voltage reading on the multimeter.

The solenoid operation also closes the electric circuit to the motor. Connect one lead of the multimeter to the solenoid connection (terminal) that is fastened to the motor. Put the other lead to a good ground. Activate the starter solenoid and look at the multimeter. A reading of battery voltage shows the problem is in the motor. The motor must be removed for further testing. A zero reading on the multimeter shows that the solenoid contacts do not close. This is an indication of the need for repair to the solenoid or an adjustment to be made to the starter pinion clearance.

Make a test with one multimeter lead fastened to the connection (terminal) for the small wire at the solenoid and the other lead to the ground. Look at the multimeter and activate the starter solenoid. A voltage reading shows that the problem is in the solenoid. A zero reading is an indication that the problem is in the start switch or the wires for the start switch.

Fasten one multimeter lead to the start switch at the connection (terminal) for the wire from the battery. Fasten the other lead to a good ground. A zero reading indicates a broken circuit from the battery. Make a check of the circuit breaker and wiring. If there is a voltage reading, the problem is in the start switch or in the wires for the start switch.

A starting motor that operates too slow can have an overload because of too much friction in the engine being started. Slow operation of the starting motor can also be caused by a short circuit, loose connections and/or dirt in the motor.

Pinion Clearance Adjustment

When the solenoid is installed, make an adjustment of the pinion clearance. The adjustment can be made with the starting motor removed.


Connection For Checking Pinion Clearance
(1) Connector (from MOTOR terminal on solenoid to the motor). (2) Terminal (3) Ground terminal.

1. With the solenoid installed on the starting motor, remove connector (1).

2. Connect a battery, of the same voltage as the solenoid, to the terminal (2), marked SW.

3. Connect the other side of the battery to ground terminal (3).

4. Connect for a moment a wire from the solenoid connection (terminal) marked MOTOR to the ground connection (terminal). The pinion will shift to crank position and will stay there until the battery is disconnected.


Pinion Clearance Adjustment
(4) Nut. (5) Pinion. (6) Pinion clearance.

5. Push the pinion toward the commutator end to remove free movement.

6. Pinion clearance (6) must be 8.3 to 9.9 mm (.33 to .39 in).

7. To adjust pinion clearance, remove plug and turn nut (4).

8. After the adjustment is completed, install the plug over adjustment nut (4) and install connector (1) between the MOTOR terminal on the solenoid and the starting motor.

Air Starting System

Pressure Regulating Valve


Pressure Regulating Valve (Typical Illustration)
(1) Adjustment screw. (2) Regulator inlet. (3) Regulator outlet.

To check and adjust the pressure regulating valve, use the procedure that follows:

1. Drain the line to the pressure regulating valve or drain the air storage tank.

2. Disconnect the regulator from the starter control valve.

3. Connect an 8M2885 Pressure Indicator to regulator outlet (3).

4. Put air pressure in the line or tank.

5. Check the pressure.

6. Adjust the pressure regulating valve to ... 690 to 1030 kPa (100 to 150 psi)

7. Remove the air pressure from the line or tank.

8. Remove the 8M2885 Pressure Indicator and connect the air pressure regulator to the line to the air starting motor.

Each engine application will have to be inspected to get the most acceptable starting results. Some of the factors that affect regulating valve pressure setting are: attachment loads pulled by engine during starting, ambient temperature conditions, oil viscosity, capacity of air reservoir, and condition of engine (new or worn).

The advantage of setting the valve at the higher pressures is increased torque for starting motor and faster rotation of engine. The advantage of setting the valve at the lower pressures is longer time of engine rotation for a given capacity of supply air.

Lubrication

Always use an air line lubricator with these air starting motors.

For temperatures above 0°C (32°F), use a non detergent 10W engine oil.

For temperatures below 0°C (32°F), use air tool oil.

The cylinder (12) must be assembled over the rotor (15) and on the front end plate (16) so the dowel hole (12B) and the inlet passages (12A) for the air are as shown in the rear view illustration of the cylinder and rotor. If the installation is not correct, the starter drive (42) will turn in the wrong direction.

Tighten the bolts (6) of the rear cover in small increases of torque for all bolts until all bolts are tight 30 ± 5 N·m (22 ± 4 lb ft).

Put a thin layer of lubricant on the lip of the seal (29) and on the outside of the collar (35), for installation of drive shaft (34). After installation of the shaft through the gear case cover (28) check the lip of the grease seal (29). It must be turned correctly toward the drive gear (25). If the shaft turned the seal lip in the wrong direction, remove the shaft and install again. Use a tool with a thin point to turn the seal lip in the correct direction.

Tighten the bolts (32) of the drive housing in small increases of torque for all bolts until all bolts are tight 11.3 N·m (100 lb in).

Check the motor for correct operation. Connect an air hose to the motor inlet (49) and make the motor turn slowly. Look at the starter drive (42) from the front of the drive housing (45). The pinion must turn clockwise.

Connect an air hose to the small hole with threads in the drive housing (45), nearer the gear case (22). When a little air pressure goes to the drive housing, the starter drive (42) must move forward to the engaged position. Also, the air must get out through the other hole with threads nearer the mounting flange (51).

During assembly put two pieces of 0.10 mm (.004 in) shim stock between rotor body and rear end plate (7). Tighten retaining nut (16) until there is a slight drag on the shim stock. Tighten the clamping screw in the retaining nut (16). The clearance between the rotor assembly and the end plate can be 0.05 to 0.13 mm (.002 to .005 in).

Install four bolts (5), and tighten to a torque of ... 27 N·m (20 lb ft).

Tighten bolts (22) to a torque of ... 68 N·m (50 lb ft).

Install gear case seal (28) lip side first, into the small bore of the gear case. Put a thin layer of lubricant on the lip type seal and all O-ring seals.

Install four bolts (54). Tighten to a torque of ... 27 N·m (20 lb ft).

Tighten the bolt (47) to a torque of ... 75 N·m (55 lb ft).

After assembly, turn the drive pinion by hand in the direction of starter rotation. The clutch should ratchet smoothly with a slight "clicking" action. Attach a hose to the "IN" port and apply 345 kPa (50 psi) air pressure. The drive pinion should move outward and air will escape from the "OUT" port. Plug the "OUT" port and apply 1034 kPa (150 psi) air pressure.

The distance measured from the face of the drive pinion to the face of the mounting flange should be 70.5 mm (2.77 in). Remove pressure from the "IN" port. The measured distance should be 46.3 mm (1.82 in).

Connect a 9 mm (3/8 in) inlet hose at 620 kPa (90 psi). The starter should run smoothly. Plug the exhaust port and apply 207 kPa (30 psi) air pressure. Immerse starter in a non-flammable solvent for 30 seconds. If the starter is properly sealed, no air bubbles will appear.

Rack Shutoff Solenoid

Adjust, if necessary, the distance (2) between the shaft and the plate to 24.4 mm (.96 in) at the start of the test.


Rack Solenoid
(1) Travel 15.7 mm (.62 in). (2) Distance between shaft and plate 24.4 mm (.96 in). (3) Start position of plunger plate from mounting flange is 11.2 mm (.44 in) to measure travel of plunger.

Two checks must be made on the engine to give proof that the solenoid adjustment is correct.

1. The adjustment must give the plunger enough travel to move the rack to the fuel shutoff position. Use the 9S0240 Rack Position Tool Group to make sure the rack goes to the fuel shutoff position.
2. The adjustment must give the plunger enough travel to cause only the "hold-in" windings of the solenoid to be activated when the rack is held in the fuel shutoff position. Use a thirty ampere ammeter to make sure the plunger is in the "hold-in" position. Current needed must be less than two amperes.


Rack Solenoid
(1) Solenoid plunger. (2) Stop bolt. (3) Locknut. (4) Lock wire and seal.

1. Remove any manual shutoff shaft linkage from the governor.

2. Remove lock wire and seal (4). Loosen locknut (3) and turn stop bolt (2) several turns out [away from solenoid plunger (1)]

3. Rotate the manual shutoff shaft clockwise to the shutoff position. Fasten the shaft in the shutoff position.

4. Hold locknut (3) and turn stop bolt (2) in until the bolt contacts shutoff solenoid plunger (1).

5. Turn stop bolt (2) in an additional 3/4 ± 1/4 turn and tighten locknut (3).

6. Release the manual shutoff shaft.

7. Start the engine.

8. The engine should run at low idle without a problem.

9. To test the solenoid stop bolt adjustment, run the engine at high idle and no load. Shut off the engine and the engine should stop.

10. If the engine continues to run at reduced speed or shuts down too slowly, turn the stop bolt (2) out an additional 1/4 turn and repeat Step 9.

11. If possible, apply a load to the engine and make sure the engine will maintain the normal full load speed. Remove the load and return the engine to low idle.

12. Shut off the engine.
