DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FUEL SYSTEM AIR
LEAK VACUUM TEST
The proceeding test will determine if a fuel system
air leak exists at the engine. Air leaks will cause
hard starting and/or poor performance.
A hand-operated vacuum pump/gauge equipped
with a remote or built-on fluid container will be used.
A typical hand-operated pump is shown in (Fig. 2).
The use of a hand-operated pumpwitha fluid con-
tainer will prevent fuel oil from entering and possibly
damaging pump. Two rubber caps (one 5/16º and one
3/8º) will also be used to temporarily plug / seal fuel
system.
Vacuum Test Set-Up, Specifications and
Conditions
²Examine all engine fuel system components, fit-
tings, lines and hoses for visual evidence of fuel leak-
age. Repair as necessary before proceeding.
²Be sure gauge on your hand-operated pump is
accurate and pump does not leak. Perform a simple
test on pump. Add a 3 foot section (minimum) of
clear plastic hose to the pump.
²Apply maximum 15-20 inches of vacuum for
tests.
²System should hold 15-20 inches of vacuum for 5
continuous minutes. After 5 minutes, vacuum should
not drop more than 0.1 inch Hg for 1 minute.²Disconnect fuel supply and return lines (quick-
connects) at rear of engine (Fig. 3).
²Drain as much fuel as possible from engine fuel
lines. Also, completely drain fuel filter/water separa-
tor housing. Refer to Fuel Filter/Water Separator
Removal and Installation for fuel draining proce-
dures. This step must be done to prevent liquid fuel
from entering and possibly damaging your hand-op-
erated pump.
Testing All Engine Fuel System Components Together
This test will indicate an air leak is present some-
where on the engine.
(1) Be sure water drain valve is securely closed.
(2) Examine all engine fuel system components,
fittings, lines and hoses for visual evidence of fuel
leakage. Repair as necessary.
(3) Install 5/16º rubber cap to fuel return line on
engine (Fig. 4).
(4) Install hand-operated vacuum pump to fuel
supply line on engine (Fig. 4).
(5) Perform vacuum test. Be careful not to allow
liquid fuel to get into your hand-operated vacuum
pump.

Replacement of VP-44 requires authorization.DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AIR IN FUEL
SYSTEM
Air will enter the fuel system whenever fuel supply
lines, separator filters, injection pump, high-pressure
lines or injectors are removed or disconnected. Air
trapped in the fuel system can result in hard start-
ing, a rough running engine, engine misfire, low
power, excessive smoke and fuel knock. After service
is performed, air must be bled from the system
before starting the engine.
Inspect the fuel system from the fuel transfer
pump to the injectors for loose connections. Leaking
fuel is an indicator of loose connections or defective
seals. Air can also enter the fuel system between the
fuel tank and the transfer pump. Inspect the fuel
tank and fuel lines for damage that might allow air
into the system.
For air bleeding, refer to the Air Bleed Procedure.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FUEL SUPPLY
RESTRICTIONS
LOW-PRESSURE LINES
Fuel supply line restrictions or a defective fuel
transfer pump can cause starting problems and pre-
vent engine from accelerating. The starting problems
include; low power and/or white fog like exhaust.
Test all fuel supply lines for restrictions or block-
age. Flush or replace as necessary. Bleed fuel system
of air once a fuel supply line has been replaced. Refer
to Air Bleed Procedure for procedures.
To test for fuel line restrictions, a vacuum restric-
tion test may be performed. Refer to Fuel Transfer
Pump Pressure Test.
HIGH-PRESSURE LINES
Restricted (kinked or bent) high-pressure lines can
cause starting problems, poor engine performance,
engine mis-fire and white smoke from exhaust.
Examine all high-pressure lines for any damage.
Each radius on each high-pressure line must be
smooth and free of any bends or kinks.
Replace damaged, restricted or leaking high-pres-
sure fuel lines with correct replacement line.
CAUTION: All high-pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in holders. Lines cannot
contact each other or other components. Do not
attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or to repair
lines that are damaged. If line is kinked or bent, it
must be replaced. Use only recommended lines
when replacement of high-pressure fuel line is nec-
essary.

AT FUEL FILTER
Refer to Fuel Filter/Water Separator removal/in-

STANDARD PROCEDURES - CLEANING FUEL
SYSTEM PARTS
CAUTION: Cleanliness cannot be overemphasized
when handling or replacing diesel fuel system com-
ponents. This especially includes the fuel injectors,
high-pressure fuel lines and fuel injection pump.
Very tight tolerances are used with these parts. Dirt
contamination could cause rapid part wear and pos-
sible plugging of fuel injector nozzle tip holes. This
in turn could lead to possible engine misfire.
Always wash/clean any fuel system component
thoroughly before disassembly and then air dry.
Cap or cover any open part after disassembly.
Before assembly, examine each part for dirt, grease
or other contaminants and clean if necessary. When
installing new parts, lubricate them with clean
engine oil or clean diesel fuel only.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - AIR BLEED
A certain amount of air becomes trapped in the
fuel system when fuel system components on the
supply and/or high-pressure side are serviced or
replaced. Primary air bleeding is accomplished using
the electric fuel transfer (lift) pump. If the vehicle
has been allowed to run completely out of fuel, the
fuel injectors must also be bled as the fuel injection
pumpis notself-bleeding (priming).
Servicing or replacing components on the fuel
return side will not require air bleeding.
WARNING: DO NOT BLEED AIR FROM THE FUEL
SYSTEM OF A HOT ENGINE.
(1) Loosen, but do not remove, banjo bolt (test port
fitting) holding low-pressure fuel supply line to side
of fuel injection pump (Fig. 11). Place a shop towel
around banjo fitting to catch excess fuel.
The fuel transfer (lift) pump is self-priming: When
the key is first turned on (without cranking engine),
the pump operates for approximately 2 seconds and
then shuts off. The pump will also operate for up to
25 seconds after the starter is quickly engaged, and
then disengaged without allowing the engine to start.
The pump shuts off immediately if the key is on and
the engine stops running.
(2) Turn key to CRANK position and quickly
release key to ON position before engine starts. Thiswill operate fuel transfer pump for approximately 25
seconds.
(3) If fuel is not present at fuel supply line after
25 seconds, turn key OFF. Repeat previous step until
fuel is exiting at fuel supply line.
(4) Tighten banjo bolt at fuel supply line to 24 N´m
(18 ft. lbs.) torque. Primary air bleeding is now com-
pleted.
(5) Attempt to start engine. If engine will not
start, proceed to following steps.If engine does
start, it may run erratically and be very noisy
for a few minutes. This is a normal condition.
(6)Continue to next step if:
²The vehicle fuel tank has been allowed to run
empty
²The fuel injection pump has been replaced
²High-pressure fuel lines have been replaced
²Vehicle has not been operated after an extended
period
CAUTION: Do not engage the starter motor for more
than 30 seconds at a time. Allow two minutes
between cranking intervals.
(7) Perform previous air bleeding procedure steps
using fuel transfer pump. Be sure fuel is present at
fuel supply line (Fig. 11) before proceeding.
