control linkage to see if they are in the run position. If not, check the shutoff
actuator for binding.
2. ENGINE WILL START, BUT SHUTS DOWN WHEN START-UP OVERRIDE IS RELEASED
Cause
Correction
Engine Oil Pressure Is Too Low
Install a pressure gauge in oil line (2) or in port ( I ) behind oil supply line (4),
see Figure 1. Operate the start-up override and start the engine. Engine oil
pressure must be 175 kPa (25 psi) minimum at low idle and 240 kPa (35 psi)
minimum at rated speed.
