FUEL
SYSTEM

• A broken injection pump timing mechanism spring
will cause the timing to be fully advanced resulting
in torque loss, a fuel knock and possible engine over
heating.
An improperly operating KSB (cold start) solenoid
will cause white smoke during engine warm-up. The
KSB solenoid is not serviceable.
A defective or non-adjustable fuel injection pump
can cause starting problems or prevent the engine
from revving up. It can also cause:
• Engine surge at idle • Rough idle (warm engine)
• Engine miss under load
• Low power
• Excessive fuel consumption
• Poor performance
• Low power
• Black smoke from the exhaust • Blue or white fog like exhaust
• Incorrect idle or maximum speed A worn fuel injection pump plunger can effect fuel
pressure and the amount of fuel injected. This results in reduced engine power. In most cases, if the injec
tion pump is delivering fuel from one outlet, it will deliver fuel from all outlets. If the internal plunger is defective, the fuel injection pump must be re
placed.
Engine power is also effected by the governor set
ting and performance. Do not attempt to adjust the governor. If the governor seals on the external adjustment screw are broken, the fuel rate may
be out of adjustment. The warranty of the injec tion pump and the engine may be void if the
seals have been tampered with or removed.

FUEL
INJECTORS
A leaking fuel injector can cause fuel knock, poor
performance, black smoke, poor fuel economy and
rough engine idle. If the fuel injector needle valve
does not operate properly, the engine may misfire and produce low power. A leak in the injection pump-to-injector high pres
sure fuel line can cause many of the same symptoms as a malfunctioning injector. Inspect for a leak in the
high pressure lines before checking for a malfunc
tioning fuel injector.

To determine which fuel injector is malfunctioning,
run the engine and loosen the high pressure fuel line nut at the injector. Listen for a change in engine
speed (Fig. 14). Tighten the line nut. If engine speed

drops,
the injector was operating normally. If engine
speed remains the same, the injector is malfunction
ing. Test all injectors in the same manner one at a

time.

Fig. 14
Inspecting
Injector Operation
Once an injector has been found to be malfunction
ing, remove it from the engine and replace it. Refer
to Diesel Engine Service Procedures for injector re moval and installation.

FUEL
SUPPLY
RESTRICTIONS

CAUTION:
Do not
operate
the
engine
if the
fuel
sup ply
line
has
a
restriction
of
more
than
12.7
kPa
(3.75
in
Hg).
Refer
to
Lift
Pump
Test.

Fuel supply line restrictions can cause starting
problems and prevent the engine from revving up.
The starting problems include; engine miss under load, low power and blue or white fog like exhaust.
Test all fuel supply lines for restrictions or blockage.
Flush or replace as necessary. Bleed the fuel system
of air once a fuel supply line has been replaced.

FUEL/WATER
SEPARATOR
FILTER
A blocked or clogged fuel/water separator filter can
cause starting problems and prevent the engine from
revving up. It can also cause engine miss under load,
low power and blue or white fog like exhaust. The maximum allowable fuel pressure drop across
the fuel/water filter separator is 21 kPa (3 psi).

FUEL SYSTEM
14-93 There is a drain at the bottom of the separator fil
ter (Fig. 13). Place a drain pan under the drain tube. With the engine not running, hold the drain open
until all water and contaminants have been removed and clean fuel exits the drain. Dispose of mixture in
drain pan according to applicable regulations.
If excess water gathers in separator/filter in a short

time,
the fuel tank must be removed, drained and cleaned.

HIGH
PRESSURE FUEL LINE RESTRICTIONS
High pressure fuel line leaks can cause starting
problems, poor engine performance and engine miss under load. Restricted high pressure lines can cause starting problems, poor engine performance, engine
miss under load and black smoke from exhaust.

Start the engine. Move the cardboard over the high
pressure fuel lines and check for fuel spray onto the cardboard. If a high pressure line connection is leak
ing, bleed the system and tighten the connection. Re
fer to the 5.9L Diesel Service Procedures section for air bleeding procedures. Replace damaged, restricted
or leaking high pressure fuel lines with the correct replacement line.

CAUTION:
The
high pressure
fuel
lines must
be

clamped securely
in
place
in the
holders.
The
lines cannot contact each other
or
other components.

KSB
SOLENOID
The KSB solenoid will click when it is energized
and de-energized. If the solenoid does not click when 12 volts is sup
plied to it, replace the solenoid.

MECHANICAL
LIFT
PUMP
An improperly operating lift pump can cause low
engine power. Inspect the fuel supply line to the
pump for restrictions, kinks or leaks. Fuel leaking
from the weep hole (Fig. 15) in the pump casing in
dicates a leaking pump diaphragm. The lift pump is not repairable and must be replaced as an assembly.
CAUTION:
Do not
operate
the
fuel
system
with
a

suction restriction
of
more than
95 MM Hg (3.75
inch Hg). Refer
to
Lift
Pump Test.
Fig.

Lift
Pump
Low lift pump output can be caused by a worn ec
centric on the engine camshaft. A properly operating lift pump will pump a minimum volume of 0.75 liter (0.70 U.S. quart) of fuel in 30 seconds at engine
cranking speed.
The maximum allowable pressure drop across the
fuel filter is 21 Kpa (3 psi). As the filter removes contaminants in the fuel, the pressure drop across
the fuel separator filter will increase. Frequent re
placement of the separator filter can indicate a worn lift pump. Refer to the Maintenance Schedule at the
front of this manual for recommended replacement intervals.

LIFT
PUMP
TEST
(1) Disconnect fuel inlet tube at the lift pump. (2) Install T-fitting between disconnected fitting
and lift pump inlet. Connect vacuum gauge to T-fit
ting.

WARNING:
USE
EXTREME

CLOTHING.

The vacuum gauge will not indicate a vacuum un
til the lift pump begins to operate at full capacity.
(3) Operate engine at approximately 1500 rpm for
30 seconds. Vacuum should not exceed 12.7 kPa (3.75
in. Hg).
(4) If vacuum exceeds 12.7 kPa (3.75 in. Hg) check
fuel tube for restriction. A partially clogged in-tank fuel filter can also cause excess vacuum.
