3. Disconnect the vacuum hose (4) from the PLA unit to check
idle speed with tester.
4. Check idle speed with tester.

6. After adjustment, tighten the locking nut and place the
position marking with different color of paint.
Notice
If there are no changes in idle speed with PLA unit
adjustment, perform the service at a BOSCH Service Center.
7. Connect the vacuum pump to the PLA vacuum unit and
build up vacuum approx. 500mbar. If engine rpm increases
by approx. 100rpm, It is normal.

8. Connect the vacuum line (4).
9. Switch on all ancillaries and check the idle speed.
5. Ensure not to damage the idle spring in the governor and
adjust idle speed by turning the PLA unit (5) slowly.
Notice
Do not rotate the PLA unit over ½ turn from the position
marking. If do, idle spring in the governor will be severely
damaged.Clockwise

Notice
Before test, replace the fuel filter cartridge and fuel prefilter.
Fuel Feed Test
1. Disconnect the fuel return line (1) and seal up it with plug.
2. Insert the plastic hose (5) and put the end into the measuring
beaker (6).
3. Disconnect the vacuum line (4) from vacuum unit (engine
stop) (5) and connect the vacuum pump (7) to the vacuum
unit.
4. To avoid the engine starting, build up vacuum (approx. 500
mbar).
5. Operate the starter motor for exactly 30 seconds and
measure fuel volume in the beaker.

Notice
When testing the injection nozzle, do not place your hand into
the spray of a nozzle. The spray will penetrate deep into the
skin and destroy the tissue.
1. Connect the fuel injection nozzle to the tester (2).
Tester 000 589 14 27 00
2. Close the valve (3) and pump 5 times strongly.
3. Chatter test :
Slowly operate the hand lever at tester (approx. 1 stroke
per second). The nozzle must spray with a gentle chattering.
4. Spray pattern test :
Operate the hand lever at tester rapidly (approx. 2~3 strokes
per second).
lGood
The spray pattern shows closed and well atomized.
lPoor
The spray pattern shows split, too wide and stringy.
