O2 SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Oxygen Sensors (O2S) are attached to, and
protrude into the vehicle exhaust system. Depending
on the emission package, the vehicle may use a total
of either 2 or 4 sensors.
Medium and Heavy Duty 8.0L V-10 Engine:
Four sensors are used (2 upstream, 1 pre-catalyst
and 1 post-catalyst). With this emission package, the
1/1 upstream sensor (left side) is located in the left
exhaust downpipe before both the pre-catalyst sensor
(1/2), and the main catalytic convertor. The 2/1
upstream sensor (right side) is located in the right
exhaust downpipe before both the pre-catalyst sensor
(1/2), and the main catalytic convertor. The pre-cata-
lyst sensor (1/2) is located after the 1/1 and 2/1 sen-
sors, and just before the main catalytic convertor.
The post-catalyst sensor (1/3) is located just after the
main catalytic convertor.
Heavy Duty 5.9L Engine:Two sensors are used.
They arebothreferred to as upstream sensors (left
side is referred to as 1/1 and right side is referred to
as 2/1). With this emission package, a sensor is
located in each of the exhaust downpipes before the
main catalytic convertor.
OPERATION
An O2 sensor is a galvanic battery that provides
the PCM with a voltage signal (0-1 volt) inversely
proportional to the amount of oxygen in the exhaust.
In other words, if the oxygen content is low, the volt-
age output is high; if the oxygen content is high the
output voltage is low. The PCM uses this information
to adjust injector pulse-width to achieve the
14.7±to±1 air/fuel ratio necessary for proper engine
operation and to control emissions.
The O2 sensor must have a source of oxygen from
outside of the exhaust stream for comparison. Cur-
rent O2 sensors receive their fresh oxygen (outside
air) supply through the O2 sensor case housing.
Four wires (circuits) are used on each O2 sensor: a
12±volt feed circuit for the sensor heating element; a
ground circuit for the heater element; a low-noise
sensor return circuit to the PCM, and an input cir-
cuit from the sensor back to the PCM to detect sen-
sor operation.
Oxygen Sensor Heaters/Heater Relays:
Depending on the emissions package, the heating ele-
ments within the sensors will be supplied voltage
from either the ASD relay, or 2 separate oxygen sen-
sor relays. Refer to 8, Wiring Diagrams to determine
which relays are used.
The O2 sensor uses a Positive Thermal Co-efficient
(PTC) heater element. As temperature increases,
resistance increases. At ambient temperatures

PTO SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
This Powertrain Control Module (PCM) input is
used only on models equipped with aftermarket
Power Take Off (PTO) units.
OPERATION
The input is used only to tell the PCM that the
PTO has been engaged. The PCM will disable (tem-
porarily shut down) certain OBD II diagnostic trou-
ble codes when the PTO is engaged.
When the aftermarket PTO switch has been
engaged, a 12V + signal is sent through circuit G113
to PCM pin A13. The PCM will then sense and deter-
mine that the PTO has been activated.
THROTTLE BODY
DESCRIPTION
The throttle body is located on the intake manifold.
Fuel does not enter the intake manifold through the
throttle body. Fuel is sprayed into the manifold by
the fuel injectors.
OPERATION
Filtered air from the air cleaner enters the intake
manifold through the throttle body. The throttle body
contains an air control passage controlled by an Idle
Air Control (IAC) motor. The air control passage is
used to supply air for idle conditions. A throttle valve
(plate) is used to supply air for above idle conditions.
Certain sensors are attached to the throttle body.
The accelerator pedal cable, speed control cable and
transmission control cable (when equipped) are con-
nected to the throttle body linkage arm.
A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle
speed using this screw.All idle speed functions are
controlled by the PCM.

the pedal arm (Fig. 21). Align the index slot on the
plastic cable retainer to this index tab.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The 3±wire Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is
mounted on the throttle body and is connected to the
throttle blade.
OPERATION
The TPS is a 3±wire variable resistor that provides
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with an input
signal (voltage) that represents the throttle blade
position of the throttle body. The sensor is connected
to the throttle blade shaft. As the position of the
throttle blade changes, the resistance (output volt-
age) of the TPS changes.
The PCM supplies approximately 5 volts to the
TPS. The TPS output voltage (input signal to the
PCM) represents the throttle blade position. The
PCM receives an input signal voltage from the TPS.
This will vary in an approximate range of from .26
volts at minimum throttle opening (idle), to 4.49 volts
at wide open throttle. Along with inputs from other
sensors, the PCM uses the TPS input to determine
current engine operating conditions. In response to
engine operating conditions, the PCM will adjust fuel
injector pulse width and ignition timing.
The PCM needs to identify the actions and position
of the throttle blade at all times. This information is
needed to assist in performing the following calcula-
tions:
²Ignition timing advance
²Fuel injection pulse-width
²Idle (learned value or minimum TPS)
²Off-idle (0.06 volt)
²Wide Open Throttle (WOT) open loop (2.608
volts above learned idle voltage)
²Deceleration fuel lean out
²Fuel cutoff during cranking at WOT (2.608 volts
above learned idle voltage)
²A/C WOT cutoff (certain automatic transmis-
sions only)

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.
(6) Vacuum holds ? End of test; no leaks found on
engine.
(7) Vacuum leak ? Proceed. The following tests will
isolate the component that is leaking.

(5) Vacuum leak ? Check condition of banjo fit-
tings, banjo bolts, and sealing washers. If leaks are
not present, a leak exists within VP-44 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-
stallation for procedures.
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.

(8) Crank the engine for 30 seconds at a time to
allow air trapped in the injection pump to vent out
the drain manifold.
WARNING: THE FUEL INJECTION PUMP SUPPLIES
EXTREMELY HIGH FUEL PRESSURE TO EACH INDI-
VIDUAL INJECTOR THROUGH THE HIGH-PRES-
SURE LINES. FUEL UNDER THIS AMOUNT OF
PRESSURE CAN PENETRATE THE SKIN AND
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY. WEAR SAFETY GOG-
GLES AND ADEQUATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
AND AVOID CONTACT WITH FUEL SPRAY WHEN
BLEEDING HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINES.
WARNING: ENGINE MAY START WHILE CRANKING
STARTER MOTOR.
Engine may start, may run erratically and be
very noisy for a few minutes. This is a normal
condition.
(9) Thoroughly clean area around injector fittings
where they join injector connector tubes.
(10) Bleed air by loosening high-pressure fuel line
fittings (Fig. 12) at cylinders number 3, 4 and 5.
(11) Continue bleeding injectors until engine runs
smoothly. It may take a few minutes for engine to
run smooth.(12) Tighten fuel line(s) at injector(s) to 38 N´m
(28 ft. lbs.) torque.
