AIR BLEED PROCEDURE
A certain amount
of air
becomes trapped
in the
fuel system when fuel system components
are
ser
viced
or
replaced. Bleed
the
system after fuel system service according
to the
following procedures.
WARNING:
DO NOT
BLEED
AIR
FROM
THE
FUEL
SYSTEM
OF
A
HOT
ENGINE.
DO
NOT
ALLOW FUEL
TO SPRAY ONTO
THE
EXHAUST MANIFOLD WHEN BLEEDING
AIR
FROM
THE
FUEL SYSTEM.
MANUAL BLEEDING
Some
air
enters
the
fuel system when
the
filters
or
injection pump supply line
are
changed. This small
amount
of air is
vented automatically from
the
injec
tion pump through
the
fuel drain manifold. This
is if
the filter
was
changed according
to
instructions.
The system will have
to be
bleed manually
if:
•
The
fuel filter
is not
filled before installation
•
Injection pump
is
replaced
•
High pressure fuel line connections
are
loosened
or
lines replaced
•
Initial engine start-up
or
start-up after
an ex
tended period
of no
engine operation. (1) Open
the low
pressure bleed screw
(Fig. 1).
(2) Operate
the
hand lever
on the
mechanical lift
pump until
the
fuel exiting
the low
pressure bleed screw
is
free
of air.
If
the
manual lever feels
as if it is not
pumping,
ro
tate (crank)
the
engine approximately
90
degrees. Continue pumping until
air is
removed. (3) Tighten
low
pressure bleed screw
to 8 N»m (6
ft.
lbs.)
torque.
CAUTION:
The
manual lever must
be
returned
to
the lock position
(up) after
priming.

GENERAL
INFORMATION
The low idle speed adjustment is the only adjust
ment that can be made to the injection pump. The
fuel solenoid is the only component that can be ser viced on the injection pump. Refer to Service Procedures section for fuel solenoid service. All other
injection pump service must be performed by authorized personnel.
LOW IDLE
SPEED
Use an optical tachometer such as Snap-on No.
MT139 or MTE (Cummins tool division) No. 3377462
to read engine rpm. (1) If necessary, adjust low idle speed at the low
idle speed screw (Fig. 54). If the vehicle has an auto
matic transmission, with the air conditioning on, set
low idle speed to 700 rpm. If the vehicle has a man
ual transmission, with the air conditioning on, set
low idle speed to 750 rpm. (2) Loosen idle screw lock nut using Cummins tool
number 3823750 or an equivalent. Adjust idle screw
Fig.

Speed
to obtain specified rpm. Refer to the Specification section at the end of this group for idle speeds.
