(5) Using key, crank engine over while observing
gauge. Pressure should be 5±7 psi.
(6) Re-install fuel system relay to PDC.
(7) Start engine and record fuel pressure. Pressure
should be aminimumof 69 kPa (10 psi) at idle
speed.
(8) Because fuel pump relay was removed, a Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC) may have been set. After
testing is completed, and relay has been installed,
use DRB scan tool to remove DTC.
Pressure Drop Test:
(9) Shut engine off and remove test gauge from
inlet port test fitting. Re-attach 6828 test gauge to
outlet port (Fig. 55). Start engine and record fuel
pressure. Pressure should not be more than 34 kPa
(5 psi) lower than inlet port pressure test. If so,
replace fuel filter.
Fuel Supply Restriction Test:
Due to very small vacuum specifications, the DRB
scan tool along with the Periphal Expansion Port
(PEP) Module and 0±15 psi transducer must be used.
(10) Verify transfer pump pressure is OK before
performing restriction test.
(11) Locate and disconnect fuel supply line quick-
connect fitting at left-rear of engine (Fig. 56). After
disconnecting line, plastic clip will remain attached
to metal fuel line at engine. Carefully remove clip
from metal line. Snap same clip into fuel supply
hose.
(12) Install Special Rubber Adapter Hose Tool
6631 (3/8º) into ends of disconnected fuel supply line.(13) Install transducer from PEP module to brass
ªTº fitting on tool 6631.
(14) Hook up DRB scan tool to transducer.
WARNING: DO NOT STAND IN LINE WITH THE
COOLING FAN FOR THE FOLLOWING STEPS.
(15) Start engine and record vacuum reading with
engine speed at high-idle (high-idle means engine
speed is at 100 percent throttle and no load). The
fuel restriction testMUSTbe done with engine speed
at high-idle.
(16) If vacuum reading islessthan 6 in/hg. (0±152
mm hg.), test is OK. If vacuum reading ishigher
than 6 in/hg. (152 mm hg.), restriction exists in fuel
supply line or in fuel tank module. Check fuel supply
line for damage, dents or kinking. If OK, remove
module and check module and lines for blockage.
Also check fuel pump inlet filter at bottom of module
for obstructions.
Testing For Air Leaks in Fuel Supply Side:
(17) A 3±foot section of 3/8º I.D. clear tubing is
required for this test.
(18) Using a tire core valve removal tool, carefully
remove core valve from inlet fitting test port.
(19) Attach and clamp the 3/8ºclear hose to fitting
nipple.
(20) Place other end of hose into a large clear con-
tainer. Allow hose to loop as high as possibleabove
test port.
(21) The fuel transfer pump can be put into a 25
second run (test) mode if key is quickly turned to
crank position and released back to run position
without starting engine.
To prevent engine from starting in this test, first
remove fuel system relay (fuel injection pump relay).
Relay is located in Power Distribution Center (PDC).
Refer to label under PDC cover for relay location.
Because fuel pump relay was removed, a Diagnos-
tic Trouble Code (DTC) may have been set. After test-
ing is completed, and relay has been installed, use
DRB scan tool to remove DTC.
(22) Allow air to purge from empty hose before
examining for air bubbles. Air bubbles should not be
present.
(23) If bubbles are present, check for leaks in sup-
ply line to fuel tank.
(24) If supply line is not leaking, remove fuel tank
module and remove filter at bottom of module (filter
snaps to module). Check for leaks between supply
nipple at top of module, and filter opening at bottom
of module. Replace module if necessary.
(25) After performing test, install core back into
test fitting. Before installing protective cap, be sure
fitting is not leaking.

OVERFLOW VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The overflow valve is located on the side of the
injection pump (Fig. 58). It is also used to connect
the fuel return line (banjo fitting) to the fuel injection
pump.
OPERATION
Fuel volume from the fuel transfer (lift) pump will
always provide more fuel than the fuel injection
pump requires. The overflow valve (a check valve) is
used to route excess fuel through the fuel return line
and back to the fuel tank. Approximately 70% of sup-
plied fuel is returned to the fuel tank. The valve
opens at approximately 97 kPa (14 psi). If the check
valve within the assembly is sticking open, fuel
drainage of the injection pump could cause hard
starting.

DIAGNOSIS AND

If a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been stored
for ªdecreased engine performance due to high injec-
tion pump fuel temperatureº, the overflow valve may
be stuck in closed position.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - OVERFLOW VALVE
Fuel volume from the fuel transfer (lift) pump will
always provide more fuel than the fuel injection
pump requires. The overflow valve (a check valve) is
used to route excess fuel through the fuel return line
and back to the fuel tank. Approximately 70% of sup-
plied fuel is returned to the fuel tank. The valve is
located on the side of the injection pump (Fig. 59). It
is also used to connect the fuel return line (banjo fit-
ting) to the fuel injection pump. The valve opens at
approximately 97 kPa (14 psi). If the check valve
within the assembly is sticking, low engine power or
hard starting may result.
If a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been stored
for ªdecreased engine performance due to high injec-
tion pump fuel temperatureº, the overflow valve may
be stuck in closed position.
A rubber tipped blow gun with regulated air line
pressure is needed for this test.
(1) Clean area around overflow valve and fuel
return line at injection pump before removal.(2) Remove valve from pump and banjo fitting.
(3) Discard old sealing gaskets.
(4) Set regulated air pressure to approximately 97
kPa (14±16 psi).
(5) Using blow gun, apply pressure to overflow
valve inlet end (end that goes into injection pump).
(6) Internal check valve should release, and air
should pass through valve at 97 kPa (14±16 psi). If
not, replace valve.
(7) Reduce regulated air pressure to 10 psi and
observe valve. Valve should stay shut. If not, replace
valve.
(8) Install new sealing gaskets to valve.
(9) Install valve through banjo fitting and into
pump.
(10) Tighten to 30 N´m (24 ft. lbs.) torque.
REMOVAL
The overflow valve (pressure relief valve) is located
at the outside of fuel injection pump (Fig. 60). It con-
nects the fuel return line (banjo fitting) to the pump.
The valve has no internal serviceable parts and must
be replaced as an assembly. Two sealing gaskets are
used. One gasket is located between pump and banjo
fitting. The other is located between the banjo fitting
and end of valve.

WATER IN FUEL SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The WIF sensor is located on the side of the fuel
filter/water separator canister (Fig. 61).
OPERATION
The sensor sends an input to the Engine Control
Module (ECM) when it senses water in the fuel filter/
water separator. As the water level in the filter/sep-
arator increases, the resistance across the WIF
sensor decreases. This decrease in resistance is sent
as a signal to the ECM and compared to a high
water standard value. Once the value reaches 30 to
40 kilohms, the ECM will activate the water-in-fuel
warning lamp through CCD bus circuits. This all
takes place when the ignition key is initially put in
the ON position. The ECM continues to monitor the
input at the end of the intake manifold air heater
post-heat cycle.
REMOVAL
The Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor is located at the
side of fuel filter/water separator canister. Refer to
Fuel Filter/Water Separator Removal/Installation for
WIF sensor removal/installation procedures.

FUEL DRAIN MANIFOLD
DESCRIPTION
The fuel drain manifold is actually a rifled passage
within the cylinder head (Fig. 62).
OPERATION
When the engine is running, and during injection, a
small amount of fuel flows past the injector nozzle and
is not injected into the combustion chamber. This fuel
is used to lubricate the fuel injectors. Excess fuel
drains into the fuel drain manifold (or passage). Fuel is
drained from this passage into a line at the rear of the
cylinder head (Fig. 62). After exiting the cylinder head,
fuel is routed (returned) back to the fuel tank. A ªTº is
installed into the fuel return line (Fig. 62). This ªTº is
used to allow excess fuel from the injection pump to be
returned into the fuel tank. A one-way check valve
within the overflow valve prevents fuel (from the fuel
drain manifold) from entering the fuel injection pump.
Asmallamount of fuel is returned from the fuel
injectors, while alargeamount (about 70% of sup-
plied fuel) is returned from the fuel injection pump.
REMOVAL
The fuel drain manifold (line) connects a fuel
return passage within the cylinder head to a ªTº fit-
ting on the fuel return line. It is located at the rear
of the cylinder head.(1) Disconnect both negative battery cables at both
batteries.
(2) Remove starter motor. Refer to Group 8B for
procedures.
(3) Disconnect fitting at ªTº (Fig. 63).
(4) Remove banjo bolt at rear of cylinder head.
Discard old sealing washers.
(5) Remove fuel line from vehicle.
(6) Clean connection at rear of cylinder head
before line installation.
INSTALLATION
The fuel drain manifold (line) connects a fuel
return passage within the cylinder head to a ªTº fit-
ting on the fuel return line. It is located at the rear
of the cylinder head.
Servicing fuel return components will not require
air bleeding.
(1) Using new sealing washers, assemble banjo
bolt to fuel line.
(2) Position line to engine and loosely tighten fas-
teners.
(3)
Tighten banjo bolt to 24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Tighten fitting at ªTº to 12 N´m (106 in. lbs.)
torque.
(5) Install starter motor. Refer to 8, Starter for
procedures.
(6) Connect both negative battery cables at both
batteries.

FUEL INJECTION - DIESEL
DESCRIPTION - DIESEL FUEL INJECTION
SYSTEM
The Engine Control Module (ECM) and Fuel Injec-
tion Pump Control Module (FPCM) are used prima-
rily for fuel system control. The ECM is a separate
replaceable component, while the FPCM is internal
to the fuel injection pump and is a non-serviceable
part. The ECM and FPCM are interconnected (wired
together) for fuel injection control.The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is used to
regulate or control the A/C, charging and speed con-
trol systems. It is also used to partially control cer-
tain electronic automatic transmission components.
The PCM also has control over certain instrument
panel components.
Refer to either Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
or Engine Control Module (ECM) for additional infor-
mation. Refer to (Fig. 1) for a partial list of fuel sys-
tem components.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BOOST PRESSURE
Two pressure gauges attached at two different
points are required for this test.(1) Obtain two 6828 fuel pressure test gauges
(equivalent gauges are OK).Gauge Consistency
Test:Connect the gauges together to a common pres-
sure source and verify pressure consistency of both
gauges. Do this consistency test at approximately 206
kPa (30 psi). If pressures are different, they can still
be used for test. Note and record differences in pres-
sures before testing. Make adjustments as necessary.
(2) Remove 3/4º pipe plug fitting at rear of intake
manifold (Fig. 2). Temporarily replace this fitting
with fitting reducer to adapt to pressure gauge.
Note: This pipe plug is located to front of MAP
sensor. Do not remove plug to rear of MAP sen-
sor. This is a COOLANT passage plug.
(3) Loosen hose clamp and disconnect rubber sig-
nal line (Fig. 3) from 1/8º brass fitting at front of tur-
bocharger.
(4) Remove 1/8º brass fitting (Fig. 3) from turbo-
charger. Temporarily replace this fitting with a 1/8º
ªTº fitting to adapt to pressure gauge.
(5) Reattach signal line to temporary ªTº.
(6) Attach first pressure gauge to intake manifold
fitting.
(7) Attach second pressure gauge to ªTº fitting at
turbocharger.
Engine must be at rated RPM and full load for the
test.
If gauge pressure differential is greater than 3 psi
(6 in. Hg), check intercooler and associated piping for
restrictions, plugging or damage.
Maximum pressure at intake manifold (rated rpm
and load) is 36±37 in/hg63 in/hg (17.7±18.2 psi6
1.5 psi).
Wastegate should open at no higher than 38.7
in/hg (19 psi) at wide open throttle, full load. If
wastegate is out of adjustment, a DTC may have
been set. Refer to Wastegate Adjustment in Engines
for adjustment procedures.
