3. Look for any leakage in the connection from the

adapter to the fuel injector (2). If leakage is visible,

make sure that the components are tightened to

the correct torque.

If leakage continues to occur, unscrew the body of

the fuel injector (2) from the nozzle nut. Inspect the

threaded surfaces for foreign particles and

damage.

If the faces are damaged, replace the fuel injector

(2).

If the faces are undamaged, clean the faces.

Repeat Steps 1 and 2. If leakage continues to

occur, replace the fuel injector.

4. Pump the pressure of the injector tester to

approximately 2030 kPa (294 psi) below the

opening pressure of fuel injector (2). Fuel should

not collect on the tip of the fuel injector (2) in a

sufficient quantity in order to drip from the tip for at

least ten seconds. A light dampness is acceptable.

NOTICE

Do not use  dirty test fluids  when you test fuel  injec-

tors. Also, do  not test fuel injectors unless  you have

the correct  service tools.The  use  of dirty test  fluids

and  the use  of incorrect  service  tools will  result in

damage to the fuel injectors.

Ensure that you  wear eye protection  at all times

during testing. When fuel injectors are tested, test

fluids travel through the orifices of the  nozzle tip

with high  pressure.  Under this  amount of  pres-

sure, the test fluid can pierce  the skin and cause

serious injury to the operator. Always keep the tip

of the fuel injector pointed away from the operator

and into the fuel collector and extension.

Note: This procedure is a test of the opening

pressure of the fuel injector.

1. Connect the fuel injector (2) to suitable tooling that

is similar to the Illustration 46 .

The spray from the fuel injector (2) must be

directed into the extension (4) and the fuel

collector (5).

Use clean calibration fluid when the fuel injectors

are tested. The calibration fluid should be

equivalent to SAE J-967 (ISO 4113) oil.

2. Close the gauge protector valve. Close the shutoff

valve. Open the pump isolator valve. Flush the fuel

injector (2) by operating the nozzle tester. Operate

the nozzle tester for 10 to 15 strokes at a rate of

approximately sixty strokes per minute.

3. Open the gauge protector valve. Slowly increase

the pressure until the valve in the fuel injector (2)

opens. Note the highest pressure indication on the

dial indicator before the pointer moves to 0 kPa

(0 psi). This highest pressure indication is the

opening pressure of fuel injector (2). The opening

pressure occurs when the valve needle is lifted

from the nozzle seat.

1. Connect the fuel injector (2) to suitable tooling that

is similar to the Illustration 47 .

Position the fuel injector (2) so that the direction of

the fuel spray is into the extension (4) and the fuel

collector (5).

2. Close the gauge protector valve and the shutoff

valve. Open the pump isolator valve.

Refer to Specifications, “Fuel Injection Nozzles” for

the correct pressure settings. If the opening

pressure is not within the range of the setting

which is given in the table, the fuel injector (2) must

be replaced.

Test for the Nozzle Spray Pattern

Ensure that you  wear eye protection  at all times

during testing. When fuel injectors are tested, test

fluids travel through the orifices of the  nozzle tip

with high  pressure.  Under this  amount of  pres-

sure, the test fluid can pierce  the skin and cause

serious injury to the operator. Always keep the tip

of the fuel injector pointed away from the operator

and into the fuel collector and extension.

Phases of operation and spray pattern of the fuel

injector

The spray angle is 4 degrees from the vertical when

the nozzle is fully open.

(A) Closed nozzle

(B) Open nozzle

(C) Fully open nozzle

3. Quickly pump the nozzle tester and look at the

spray pattern when the fluid begins to flow through

the orifices of fuel injector (2) .

The spray flows around the tip of the nozzle. A

difference in the nozzle spray patterns indicates

that the fuel injector (2) is faulty. Refer to the

correct spray pattern in Illustration 48 .

Observe the following characteristics of the spray:

•   Drops of fuel should not be in the spray.

•   Fuel should be sprayed in the shape of a cone

around the nozzle.

•   Fuel should be sprayed evenly in a 360 degree

pattern around the nozzle.

Fuel Quality - Test

Gear Group (Front) - Time

Use the following procedure to test for problems

regarding fuel quality:

1. Determine if water and/or contaminants are

present in the fuel. Check the water separator (if

equipped). If a water separator is not present,

proceed to Step 2. Drain the water separator, if

necessary. A full fuel tank minimizes the potential

for overnight condensation.

Note: A water separator can appear to be full of fuel

when the water separator is actually full of water.

2. Determine if contaminants are present in the fuel.

Remove a sample of fuel from the bottom of the

fuel tank. Visually inspect the fuel sample for

contaminants. The color of the fuel is not

necessarily an indication of fuel quality. However,

fuel that is black, brown, and/or similar to sludge

can be an indication of the growth of bacteria or oil

contamination. In cold temperatures, cloudy fuel

indicates that the fuel may not be suitable for the

operating conditions. Refer to Operation and

Maintenance Manual, “Fuel Recommendations” for

more information.

1. Align timing mark (X) on idler gear (3) with the

timing mark on crankshaft gear (2) and align timing

mark (X) on idler gear (3) with the timing mark on

camshaft gear (1).

3. If fuel quality is still suspected as a possible cause

of problems regarding engine performance,

disconnect the fuel inlet line, and temporarily

operate the engine from a separate source of fuel

that is known to be good. This will determine if the

problem is caused by fuel quality. If fuel quality is

determined to be the problem, drain the fuel

system and replace the fuel filters. Engine

performance can be affected by the following

Air Inlet and Exhaust System -

Inspect

Diesel Particulate Filter - Clean

A general visual inspection should be made to the air

inlet and exhaust system. Make sure that there are no

signs of leaks in the system.

Wear goggles, gloves,  protective clothing, and a

National  Institute  for  Occupational   Safety  and

Health (NIOSH) approved P95 or N95 half-face res-

pirator when  handling a  used  Diesel Particulate

Filter or Catalytic Converter Muffler. Failure to do

so could result in personal injury.

There will be a reduction in the performance of the

engine if there is a restriction in the air inlet system or

the exhaust system.

Hot  engine components  can  cause  injury  from

burns. Before performing maintenance on the en-

gine,  allow  the engine  and  the  components  to

cool.

The muffler, catalytic converter/muffler, and diesel

particulate filter will become extremely hot during

engine operation. A hot muffler, catalytic convert-

er/muffler and  diesel particulate  filter can cause

serious burns.  Allow  adequate cooling  time be-

fore working on or near the muffler, catalytic con-

verter/muffler and diesel particulate filter.

Making contact with a  running engine can cause

burns from  hot parts and  can cause  injury from

rotating parts.

Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) require periodic

removal of ash that accumulates from engine oil.

When working on an engine that is running, avoid

contact with hot parts and rotating parts.

Cleaning Procedure

Follow this cleaning procedure for removal of the ash

from a DPF. Refer to Operation and Maintenance

Manual for the intervals of service hours for cleaning

of the DPF.

1. Inspect the engine air cleaner inlet and ducting in

order to ensure that the passageway is not blocked

or collapsed.

2. Inspect the engine air cleaner element. Replace a

dirty engine air cleaner element with a clean

engine air cleaner element.

1. Connect the engine to the electronic service tool

before the DPF is removed from the engine. Once

the engine is connected to the electronic service

tool, then perform an ash service test. This test is a

manual regeneration. The test could take an hour.

3. Check for dirt tracks on the clean side of the engine

air cleaner element. If dirt tracks are observed,

contaminants are flowing past the engine air

cleaner element and/or the seal for the engine air

cleaner element.

Note: Allow the DPF to cool until the DPF can be

safely removed.

2. Remove the DPF from the Clean Emissions

Module (CEM). Refer to Disassembly and

Assembly for the correct procedure.

4. For engines with plastic valve mechanism covers, if

you experience excessive crankcase pressure,

remove the valve mechanism cover and check the

end of the shroud for a skin of plastic. If the end of

the shroud has a skin of plastic, remove the skin of

plastic. Ensure that all of the debris is removed.

Note: Identify all engine fault codes if black soot is

discovered on the outlet side of the center section on

the DPF. Refer to Troubleshooting for problem

identification and the disposition of the DPF.

3. The DPF must be cleaned. Contact your nearest

Perkins  distributor for assistance.

When the boost pressure increases against the

diaphragm in the canister, the wastegate will open.

The rpm of the turbocharger becomes limited. The

rpm is limited because a portion of the exhaust gases

bypass the turbine wheel of the turbocharger.

4. Reinstall the DPF onto the Clean Emissions

Module (CEM). Refer to Disassembly and

Assembly for the correct procedure.

The following levels of boost pressure indicate a

problem with the wastegate:

Reset the Engine Ash Model

•   Too high in full load conditions

The engine ash model must be reset whenever the

filter is cleaned or replaced. Reseting the ash model

places the DPF volume back to the  “Clean State”  .

The resetting will allow the regeneration of the DPF to

function properly.

•   Too low in all low boost conditions

The boost pressure controls the maximum rpm of the

turbocharger, because the boost pressure controls

the position of the wastegate. The following factors

also affect the maximum rpm of the turbocharger:

1. Use the electronic service tool to access the

configuration parameters. Select “Service”   from

the top menu and highlight the “DPF Soot Load

Reset”  from the menu in the service tool. The

select the “Reset”   option.

•   The engine rating

•   The horsepower demand on the engine

•   The high idle rpm

2. The electronic service tool will display  “Reset was

Successful”  when the calibration has been

completed.

1. Remove the heat shield from the turbocharger.

Remove the guard for the wastegate.

2. Remove the boost line from the wastegate.

Connect an air supply to the wastegate that can be

adjusted accurately.

Note: The turbocharger is a nonserviceable item. The

pressure for the wastegate can be checked but not

adjusted.

3. Fasten a dial gauge to the turbocharger so that the

end of the actuator rod is in contact with the

plunger of the dial gauge. This will measure axial

movement of the actuator rod.

Before the wastegate is tested, be sure that the inlet

air restriction is within the specifications for your

engine. Be sure that the exhaust system restriction is

within the specifications for your engine. Refer to

Testing and Adjusting, “Air Inlet and Exhaust System -

Inspect”.

4. Slowly apply air pressure to the wastegate so that

the actuator rod moves 1.0 mm  (0.039 inch). The

air pressure should be within 52 kPa  (7.5 psi).

Ensure that the dial gauge returns to zero when

the air pressure is released. Repeat the test

several times. This will ensure that an accurate

reading is obtained.

Inspection of the Wastegate

The wastegate controls the amount of exhaust gas

that is allowed to bypass the turbine side of the

turbocharger. This valve then controls the rpm of the

turbocharger.

When the engine operates in conditions of low boost,

a spring presses against a diaphragm in the canister.

The actuating rod will move and the wastegate will

close. Then, the turbocharger can operate at

maximum performance.

5. Consult your nearest approved Perkins  dealer or

your nearest approved Perkins distributor if the

operation of the wastegate is not correct.

Checking compression of the engine

1. Remove the fuel injector from the cylinder in order

to measure the compression for that cylinder.

2. Connect a suitable compression gauge to the

cylinder.

Inlet valve.... 0.2 ± 0.05 mm (0.008 ± 0.0020 inch)

Exhaust valve.................................0.2 ± 0.05 mm

(0.008 ± 0.0020 inch)

3. Disconnect the fuel shutoff solenoid.

Valve Lash Adjustment

4. Operate the starter motor and record the pressure

on the compression gauge.

If the valve lash requires adjustment several times in

a short time period, excessive wear exists in a

different part of the engine. Repair the problem in

order to prevent more damage to the engine.

5. Repeat for each cylinder.

Note: Compression tests should only be used to

compare pressures between cylinders of an engine. If

one or more cylinders vary more than 350 kPa

(51 psi) then those cylinders may be damaged.

Not enough valve lash can be the cause of rapid wear

of the camshaft and valve lifters. Not enough valve

lash can indicate that the seats for the valves are

worn.

Valves become worn due to the following causes:

Air Inlet and Exhaust System

•   Incorrect operation of fuel injectors

•   Excessive dirt and oil are present on the filters for

the inlet air.

Accidental  engine  starting can  cause  injury  or

death to personnel.

•   Incorrect fuel settings on the fuel injection pump.

To  prevent  accidental  engine starting,  turn  the

ignition switch to the OFF position and place a do

not operate tag at the ignition switch location.

•   The load capacity of the engine is frequently

exceeded.

Too much valve lash can cause broken valve stems,

springs, and spring retainers. Too much valve lash

can be an indication of the following problems:

Engines

•   Worn camshaft and valve lifters

•   Worn rocker arms

NOTICE

Ensure that  this valve lash  adjustment procedure is

followed for the three cylinder engine. Do not use the

traditional opposing cylinders  method. Failure to  fol-

low the  correct procedure may  result in  serious en-

gine damage.

•   Bent pushrods

•   Broken socket on the upper end of a pushrod

•   Loose adjustment screw for the valve lash

If the camshaft and valve lifters show rapid wear, look

for fuel in the lubrication oil or dirty lubrication oil as a

possible cause.

An engine oil pressure indicator may show that there

is enough oil pressure, but a component is worn due

to a lack of lubrication. In such a case, look at the

passage for the oil supply to the component. A

restriction in an oil supply passage will not allow

enough lubrication to reach a component. This will

result in early wear.

Excessive Engine Oil

Consumption - Inspect

Engine Oil Leaks on the Outside of

the Engine

Check for leakage at the seals at each end of the

crankshaft. Look for leakage at the gasket for the

engine oil pan and all lubrication system connections.

Look for any engine oil that may be leaking from the

crankcase breather. This can be caused by

combustion gas leakage around the pistons. A dirty

crankcase breather will cause high pressure in the

crankcase. A dirty crankcase breather will cause the

gaskets and the seals to leak.

Engine Oil Leaks into the

Combustion Area of the Cylinders

Engine oil that is leaking into the combustion area of

the cylinders can be the cause of blue smoke. There

are several possible ways for engine oil to leak into

the combustion area of the cylinders:

•   Leaks between worn valve guides and valve stems

•   Worn components or damaged components

(pistons, piston rings, or dirty return holes for the

engine oil)

•   Incorrect installation of the compression ring and/

or the intermediate ring

•   Leaks past the seal rings in the turbocharger shaft

•   Overfilling of the crankcase

•   Wrong oil level gauge or guide tube

•   Sustained operation at light loads

Excessive consumption of engine oil can also result if

engine oil with the wrong viscosity is used. Engine oil

with a thin viscosity can be caused by increased

engine temperature.

Check for debris or damage between the fins

“Cooling System - Inspect”.

i02193795

Cooling System - Check

(Overheating)

6. Check the filler cap. A pressure drop in the cooling

system can cause the boiling point to be lower.

This can cause the cooling system to boil. Refer to

Testing and Adjusting, “Cooling System - Test”.

Above normal coolant temperatures can be caused

by many conditions. Use the following procedure to

determine the cause of above normal coolant

temperatures:

7. Check the fan and/or the fan shroud. The fan

shroud must be the proper size and the fan shroud

must be positioned correctly.

1. Check the coolant level in the cooling system. If the

coolant level is too low, air will get into the cooling

system. Air in the cooling system will cause a

reduction in coolant flow and bubbles in the

coolant. Air bubbles will keep the coolant away

from the engine parts, which will prevent the

transfer of heat to the coolant. Low coolant level is

caused by leaks or incorrectly filling the expansion

tank.

8. Check for loose drive belts.

a.

A loose fan drive belt will cause a reduction in

the air flow across the radiator. Check the fan

drive belt for proper belt tension. Adjust the

tension of the fan drive belt, if necessary. Refer

to the Testing and Adjusting Section, “Belt

Tension Chart”.

b.

A loose water pump drive belt will cause a

reduction in coolant flow through the radiator.

Check the water pump drive belt for proper belt

tension. Adjust the water pump drive belt's

tension, if necessary. Refer to the Testing and

Adjusting Section, “Belt Tension Chart”.

2. If contamination of the coolant is suspected, refer

to Operation and Maintenance, “Maintenance

Section”for the correct specification of coolant.

3. Check for air in the cooling system. Air can enter

the cooling system in different ways. The most

common causes of air in the cooling system are

not filling the cooling system correctly and

combustion gas leakage into the cooling system.

Combustion gas can get into the system through

inside cracks, a damaged cylinder head, or a

damaged cylinder head gasket. Air in the cooling

system causes a reduction in coolant flow and

bubbles in the coolant. Air bubbles keep the

coolant away from the engine parts, which

prevents the transfer of heat to the coolant.

9. Check the cooling system hoses and clamps.

Damaged hoses with leaks can normally be seen.

Hoses that have no visual leaks can soften during

operation. The soft areas of the hose can become

kinked or crushed during operation. These areas of

the hose can cause a restriction in the coolant flow.

Hoses become soft and/or get cracks after a

period of time. The inside of a hose can

deteriorate, and the loose particles of the hose can

cause a restriction of the coolant flow.

10. Check for a restriction in the air inlet system. A

restriction of the air that is coming into the engine

can cause high cylinder temperatures. High

cylinder temperatures require higher than normal

temperatures in the cooling system.

4. Check the sending unit. In some conditions, the

temperature sensor in the engine sends signals to

a sending unit. The sending unit converts these

signals to an electrical impulse which is used by a

mounted gauge. If the sending unit malfunctions,

the gauge can show an incorrect reading. Also if

the electric wire breaks or if the electric wire shorts

out, the gauge can show an incorrect reading.

11. Check for a restriction in the exhaust system. A

restriction of the air that is coming out of the engine

can cause high cylinder temperatures.

5. Check the radiator.

a.

Make a visual inspection of the exhaust

system.

a.

Check the radiator for a restriction to coolant

flow. Check the radiator for debris, dirt, or

deposits on the inside of the core. Debris, dirt,

or deposits will restrict the flow of coolant

through the radiator.

b.

Check for damage to exhaust piping. Check

for damage to the exhaust elbow. If no damage

is found, check the exhaust system for a

restriction.

KENR9144

71

Cooling System

12. Check the water temperature regulator. A water

temperature regulator that does not open, or a

water temperature regulator that only opens part of

the way can cause overheating. Refer to Testing

and Adjusting, “Water Temperature Regulator -

Test”.

Note: A small amount of coolant leakage across the

surface of the water pump seals is normal. This

leakage is required in order to provide lubrication for

this type of seal. A hole is provided in the water pump

housing in order to allow this coolant/seal lubricant to

drain from the pump housing. Intermittent leakage of

small amounts of coolant from this hole is not an

indication of water pump seal failure.

13. Check the water pump. A water pump with a

damaged impeller does not pump enough coolant

for correct engine cooling. Remove the water

pump and check for damage to the impeller.

3. Make sure that air flow through the radiator does

not have a restriction. Look for bent core fins

between the folded cores of the radiator. Also, look

for debris between the folded cores of the radiator.

14. Consider high outside temperatures. When

outside temperatures are too high for the rating of

the cooling system, there is not enough of a

temperature difference between the outside air and

coolant temperatures. The maximum temperature

of the ambient air that enters the engine should not

exceed 50 °C (120 °F).

4. Inspect the drive belts for the fan.

5. Check for damage to the fan blades.

6. Look for air or combustion gas in the cooling

system.

15. When a load that is applied to the engine is too

large, the engine rpm does not increase with an

increase of fuel. This lower engine rpm causes a

reduction in coolant flow through the system. This

combination of less air and less coolant flow during

high input of fuel will cause above normal heating.

7. Inspect the filler cap, and check the surface that

seals the filler cap. This surface must be clean.

8. Look for large amounts of dirt in the radiator core.

Look for large amounts of dirt on the engine.

Remove the dirt from the radiator core and the

engine.

16. Timing of the engine which is incorrect may also

cause overheating of the engine. Late timing

creates more heat in the engine. Early timing

creates less heat in the engine.

9. Fan shrouds that are loose or missing cause poor

air flow for cooling.

i01964006

Note: If the timing of the engine is incorrect, the

exhaust valves may be burned and damage to the

exhaust manifold may occur.

Cooling System - Test

Remember that temperature and pressure work

together. When a diagnosis is made of a cooling

system problem, temperature and pressure must be

checked. The cooling system pressure will have an

effect on the cooling system temperature. For an

example, refer to Illustration 80 . This will show the

effect of pressure on the boiling point (steam) of

water. This will also show the effect of height above

sea level.

i01300404

Cooling System - Inspect

Cooling systems that are not regularly inspected are

the cause for increased engine temperatures. Make a

visual inspection of the cooling system before any

tests are performed.

Personal  injury  can  result  from  escaping  fluid

If a pressure indication is shown on the indicator,

push the release valve in order to relieve pressure

before removing any hose from the radiator.

The coolant level must be to the correct level in order

to check the coolant system. The engine must be cold

and the engine must not be running.

To check for the amount of pressure that opens the

filler cap, use the following procedure:

1. After the engine cools, carefully loosen the filler

cap. Slowly release the pressure from the cooling

system. Then, remove the filler cap.

After the engine is cool, loosen the pressure cap in

order to relieve the pressure out of the cooling

system. Then remove the pressure cap.

The level of the coolant should not be more than

13 mm (0.5 inch) from the bottom of the filler pipe. If

the cooling system is equipped with a sight glass, the

coolant should be to the correct level in the sight

glass.

2. Inspect the pressure cap carefully. Look for

damage to the seal. Look for damage to the

surface that seals. Remove any debris on the cap,

the seal, or the sealing surface.

Carefully inspect the filler cap. Look for any

damage to the seals and to the sealing surface.

Inspect the following components for any foreign

substances:

Checking the Filler Cap

One cause for a pressure loss in the cooling system

can be a faulty seal on the radiator pressure cap.

•   Filler cap

•   Seal

•   Surface for seal

Remove any deposits that are found on these

Introduction

Testing The Radiator And Cooling

System For Leaks

This procedure is intended to give information on

testing the water temperature regulator.

Use the following procedure to test the radiator and

the cooling system for leaks.

Test Procedure

Personal  injury  can  result  from  escaping  fluid

under pressure.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant, steam

and alkali.

If a pressure indication is shown on the indicator,

push the release valve in order to relieve pressure

before removing any hose from the radiator.

At operating  temperature,  engine coolant  is hot

and under pressure. The  radiator and all lines  to

heaters  or  the   engine  contain  hot  coolant  or

steam. Any contact can cause severe burns.

1. Remove the water temperature regulator from the

engine.

Remove filler cap slowly to  relieve pressure only

when engine is  stopped and radiator cap is  cool

enough to touch with your bare hand.

2. Heat water in a pan until the temperature of the

water is equal to the fully open temperature of the

water temperature regulator. Refer to

Specifications, “Water Temperature Regulator” for

the fully open temperature of the water

temperature regulator. Stir the water in the pan.

This will distribute the temperature throughout the

pan.

1. When the engine has cooled, loosen the filler cap

to the first stop. Allow the pressure to release from

the cooling system. Then remove the filler cap.

2. Make sure that the coolant covers the top of the

radiator core.

3. Put a suitable pressurizing Pump onto the radiator.

3. Hang the water temperature regulator in the pan of

water. The water temperature regulator must be

below the surface of the water. The water

temperature regulator must be away from the sides

and the bottom of the pan.

4. Use the pressurizing pump to increase the

pressure to an amount of 20 kPa  (3 psi) more than

the operating pressure of the filler cap.

5. Check the radiator for leakage on the outside.

4. Keep the water at the correct temperature for ten

minutes.

6. Check all connections and hoses of the cooling

system for leaks.

5. After ten minutes, remove the water temperature

regulator. Immediately measure the opening of the

water temperature regulator. Refer to

Specifications, “Water Temperature Regulator” for

the minimum opening distance of the water

temperature regulator at the fully open

temperature.

The radiator and the cooling system do not have

leakage if all of the following conditions exist:

•   The battery charge

Whenever it is possible, test the charging unit and the

voltage regulator on the engine. This test will use

wiring and components that are a permanent part of

the system. Off-engine testing or bench testing will

give a test of the charging unit and voltage regulator

operation. This testing will give an indication of

needed repair. After repairs are made, perform a test

in order to prove that the units have been repaired to

the original condition of operation.

Alternator Regulator

Battery - Test

The charging rate of the alternator should be checked

when an alternator is charging the battery too much

or not charging the battery enough.

Most of the tests of the electrical system can be done

on the engine. The wiring insulation must be in good

condition. The wire and cable connections must be

clean, and both components must be tight.

Alternator output should be 14 ± 0.5 volt. No

adjustment can be made in order to change the rate

of charge on the alternator regulator. If the rate of

charge is not correct, a replacement of the regulator

is necessary. For individual alternator output, refer to

Specification, “Alternator and Regulator”.

Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or bat-

tery circuit cable from the battery when the charg-

ing  unit   is  operated.   A  spark  can   cause  an

explosion from  the  flammable  vapor mixture  of

hydrogen and  oxygen  that is  released from  the

electrolyte through  the battery  outlets. Injury  to

personnel can be the result.

i02196186

Coolant Temperature Switch -

Test

This procedure tests the coolant temperature switch

for correct operation. Perform this procedure when

the engine is running.

The battery circuit is an electrical load on the

charging unit. The load is variable because of the

condition of the charge in the battery.

1. Use a suitable digital multimeter to measure the

resistance of the coolant temperature switch.

When the temperature of the coolant is 50 °C

(122 °F) or less, disconnect the wire connector

from the coolant temperature switch.

NOTICE

The charging unit will be damaged if the connections

between the battery and the charging unit are broken

while the  battery is  being charged.  Damage occurs

because the load from the battery is lost and because

there is an increase in charging voltage. High voltage

will damage the charging unit, the regulator, and other

electrical components.

2. Place one lead of the multimeter on the connector

of the coolant temperature switch. Place the other

lead of the multimeter on a ground for the coolant

temperature switch.

The correct procedures to test the battery can be

found in the manual that is supplied by the OEM.

Measure the resistance. The resistance should be

54 ± 2 ohms.

3. Repeat the previous step when the temperature of

the coolant is approximately 120 °C (248 °F). The

resistance should not be less than 15 ohms.

i02196181

Charging System - Test

4. If the resistance through the coolant temperature

switch is not within the given resistances, replace

the coolant temperature switch.

The condition of charge in the battery at each regular

inspection will show if the charging system is

operating correctly. A repair is necessary when the

battery is constantly in a low condition of charge or a

large amount of water is needed. There are no

adjustments on maintenance free batteries. A large

amount of water would be more than one ounce of

water per cell per week or per every 100 service

hours.

Electrical System

Move the start control switch in order to activate the

starter solenoid. The operation of the starter solenoid

can be heard as the pinion of the starter motor is

engaged with the ring gear on the engine flywheel.

If the circuit is correct, replace the engine oil

pressure switch. If the circuit is repaired or if the

engine oil pressure switch or warning lamp are

replaced, repeat this Step in order to ensure that

the warning light turns on.

If the solenoid for the starter motor will not operate, it

is possible that the current from the battery did not

reach the solenoid. Fasten one lead of the multimeter

to the connection (terminal) for the battery cable on

the solenoid. Connect the other lead to a good

ground. A zero reading indicates that there is a

broken circuit from the battery. More testing is

necessary when there is a voltage reading on the

multimeter.

Note: The engine oil pressure switch may be

mounted on either the cylinder block or the valve

mechanism cover.

2. Remove the engine oil pressure switch from the

cylinder block or from the valve mechanism cover.

Disconnect the wire connector on the wiring

harness from the engine oil pressure switch. Use a

12 volt battery as a power source. Connect the

terminals of the battery, the engine oil pressure

switch and the leads of a suitable digital multimeter

in series. Measure the current through the engine

oil pressure switch.

The operation of the solenoid also closes the electric

circuit to the starter motor. Connect one lead of the

multimeter to the solenoid connection (terminal) that

is fastened to the starter motor. Connect the other

lead to a good ground. Activate the starter solenoid

and look at the multimeter. A voltage reading of the

battery shows that the problem is in the starter motor.

The starter motor must be removed for further testing.

A zero reading on the multimeter shows that the

solenoid contacts do not close. This indicates the

need for repair to the solenoid, or to the clearance for

the starter motor pinion.

3. The current should be 0.30 to 0.40 amperes. If the

current through the engine oil pressure switch is

greater than 0.42 amperes, replace the engine oil

pressure switch.

Perform a test. Fasten one multimeter lead to the

connection (terminal) for the small wire at the

solenoid and fasten the other lead to the ground.

Look at the multimeter and activate the starting

solenoid. A voltage reading shows that the problem is

in the solenoid. A zero reading indicates that the

problem is in the start switch or the wires for the start

switch.

i02196363

Fuel Shutoff Solenoid - Test

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.

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 starter motor that operates too slowly can have an

overload due to excessive friction in the engine that is

being started. Slow operation of the starter motor can

also be caused by a short circuit, loose connections,

and/or dirt in the starter motor.
