3-93. ON-ENGINE FUEL PUMP ADJUSTMENT (Contd)
LOCATION/ITEM
ACTION
REMARKS
a. Preadjustment Checks (Contd)
NOTE
Vehicle fuel control lever and throttle stop linkage should have a maximum throttle stop,
so when fuel pump full throttle is obtained, override pressure will not be on throttle shaft.
When fuel pump has been properly calibrated, very little adjustment should be required
after installation on engine except idle, since this setting is dependent on parasitic loads.
Fine adjustment of governor settings and fuel manifold pressure is permissible within the
limits specified if justified by engine performance tests.

b. Throttle released operation

leakage adjusting screw.
b. Idle Speed Adjustment
NOTE
Idle speed adjustment should never be made on a cold engine. Engine must be operated a
sufficient period of time to purge all air from the fuel system and to bring the engine up to
operating temperature (at least 165°F (74°C) oil temperature).

c. High Speed Adjustment
NOTE
A means of loading the engine must be used to perform this check. The tachometer and
fuel manifold pressure gauge must be of high accuracy. The engine fuel system must be
purged of all air and at operating temperature. If spring pack cover is opened to make
adjustment, fuel pump must be purged of air before attempting cutoff setting adjustment.
The preferred method of loading engine is on an engine or chassis dynamometer.
