a.
Remove plug (if installed previously) from nozzle bore in cylinder head and blow out bore with compressed air.
b.
Make sure that sealing surface of the cylinder head (on which the seal washer (7, FIGURE 3-92) will be resting)
is smooth and free of damage or dirt. This could prevent proper sealing. Dirt and roughness could also cause
distortion to nozzle when the attaching bolt (4) is tightened, making the valve stick.
c.
Install nozzle (5) in cylinder head using a slight twisting motion as nozzle is seated in bore.
d.
Install bolt (4). Do not tighten bolt (4) at this time.
CAUTION
Always use two wrenches when loosening or tightening fuel lines at nozzles to avoid damage to
equipment.
e.
Remove caps and connect fuel pressure line to nozzle. Leave connection slightly loose until air is bled from
system.
f.
Tighten nozzle hold-down bolt (4) to 27 ft-lbs (37 Nm).
g.
Install leak-off line assembly. Secure with new grommet (2) and coupling nut (3).
h.
Bleed fuel system, refer to paragraph 3-23.
3-30. AFTER ENGINE INSTALLATION TESTING.
3-30.1. Test Fuel Injection Nozzles (Engine Running).
a.
Operate engine at intermediate speed and no load.
CAUTION
Always use two wrenches when loosening or tightening fuel lines at nozzles to avoid damage to
equipment.
b.
Slowly loosen fuel pressure line at one nozzle until fuel escapes at the connection (fuel not opening nozzle
valve).
c.
If engine speed changes, injection nozzle is probably working satisfactory. If engine speed does not change,
nozzle is faulty and must be checked and/or replaced.
d.
Repeat test for each remaining nozzle assembly.
e.
Remove faulty injection nozzles and replace, refer to paragraph 3-29.
3-30.2. Fuel Drain Back Test.
NOTE
Fuel draining back through fuel system may cause hard starting. This procedure will determine
if air is entering system at connections and allowing fuel to siphon back to fuel tank.
a.
Disconnect fuel supply line and fuel return line at fuel tank, refer to end item maintenance manual.
CAUTION
Fuel return line must extend below fuel level In fuel tank before performing this test. Fill fuel
tank if necessary.
