*FUEL HEATER THERMOSTAT TEST
Diagnostic Test
1.FUEL HEATER THERMOSTAT TEST
To check the operating resistance levels on the thermostat and fuel heaterperform the following:
1. Unplug the wiring harness from the thermostat.
2. Check the resistance across the two pins of the thermostat with an Ohm meter.
3. The ambient temperature must be below the
Circuit close temperature; 1° +/- 3° Cto perform this check.
4. If necessary, induce this ambient temperature by placing ice packs on the thermostat to produce an
effective
ambient temperature
below the circuit close temperature.
5. The resistance across the two pins should be within the range of 0.3 Ohms to 0.45 Ohms for a properly operating
thermostat and heater.
6. If the resistance from step 2 is out of range, remove the thermostat and check the resistance across the terminal
connections of the heater (the heater can be checked at room temperatures).
7. The resistance across the terminal pins of the heater should be within the same range of step 2.
8. Replace the heater if resistance is not within the proper operation range.
9. Replace the heater if resistance is not within the proper operation range. Re-install the thermostat with a new
o-ring.
10. If the heater resistance is within the proper operating.
11. Circuit close temperature; 1° +/- 3° C
12. Circuit open temperature; 18° +/- 4° C
13. Fuel Heater Thermostat 0.3 - 0.45 Ohms at less than 1 degree C
14. Fuel Heater 0.3 - 0.45 Ohms at room temperature

*FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST
Possible Causes
EXCESSIVE FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW
Diagnostic Test
1.FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST
Using the scan tool, idle the engine and measure the rail pressure and determine if the rail pressure is excessive
(above 185,00 kpa/26,831 psi), if it is, troubleshoot for excessive rail pressure first.
Remove the banjo bolt from the pressure-limiting valve on the fuel rail.
Install fuel system test fitting #9013 into the pressure-limiting valve.
Attach one end of a fuel hose to the fuel fitting and put the other end of the fuel hose into a container
Perform the tests listed below to determine if the pressure-limiting valve is leaking.
a. Operate the engine at idle and watch for fuel flow into the fuel container.
b. Operate the engine at idle and actuate the high pressure safety valve test with the scan tool. Watch for fuel flow
into the fuel container.
If fuel flows into the fuel container, replace the pressure-limiting valve. If fuel does not leak from the pressure-limiting
valve, the test is complete.
NOTE: do not drive the vehicle with any portion of this test kit installed
Operate the engine until the engine is at operating temperature.
Remove the banjo connector from the fuel drain tube at the rear of the fuel filter housing
Install fuel system test fitting #9012 in place of the banjo connector.
Install a piece of fuel line onto the test fitting and put the open end into the graduated cylinder.
Start the engine and let it idle for one minute.
Measure the amount of fuel in the graduated cylinder.
If the flow is less than 1000-ml/minute at idle, the test has successfully passed.
If the flow is greater than 1000 ml/minute at idle, replace the fuel injection pump.
Retest to confirm repair.

*HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP PERFORMANCE TEST
Diagnostic Test
1.
If the engine will run do the following:
1. Monitor rail pressure with scan tool while the engine is at idle.
2. Compare the fuel pressure set point with the actual fuel pressure reading.
3. If actual fuel pressure reading fluctuates more than +/- 500 psi from theset point, then replace the Fuel Conrol
Actuator (FCA). NOTE: After the acutator is removed, check for debris or corrosion on the FCA. If debris or corro-
sion is found, replace the entire Fuel Injection Pump.
4. Turn off engine.
5. Disconnect the FCA harness
6. Disconnect high pressure fuel line from fuel rail and route the high pressure fuel line into a graduated cylinder.
7. Crank the engine until fuel exits this line. This will not be high pressurefuel.
8. Crank the engine for three (3) 10 second intervals (Note: This will give you 30 total seconds of flow time. These
are broken into 3 separate intervals to prevent damage to the starter). Fuel flow specification s based on engine
cranking speed. If you do not collect the stated amount of fuel in 30 seconds, replace the pump:
Minimum fuel pump flow at 150 rpm cranking speed is 70mL
Minimum fuel pump flow at 200 rpm cranking speed is 90mL
If the engine is a no start do the following:
1. Remove fuel pump to railhigh pressure fuel line.
2. Inspect the fuel pump outlet port for rust, debris, or other signs of contamination.
3. Replace pump if any contamination is found. Check for source of water in fuel or debris in fuel to prevent future
complaints. If no contamination is found continue to step 4.
4. Disconnect the Fuel Control Actuator (FCA).
5. Disconnect the high pressure fuel line from the fuel rail and route the high pressure fuel line to a graduated
cylinder.
6. Crank the engine until fuel exits this line. This will not be high pressurefuel.
7. Crank the engine for three (3) 10 seconds intervals.
NOTE: This will give you 30 total seconds of flow time. These are broken into3 separate intervals to pre-
vent damage to the starter.

10. If the flow is greater than 180 ml/minute, shut off the engine and removeall of the fuel injector supply lines. Re
torque all of the high-pressure connector nuts. Install all of the fuel injector supply lines.
11. Start the engine and idle for one minute. Measure the amount of fuel in the graduated cylinder.
12. If the flow is less than 180ml/minute, the condition has been fixed.
13. If the flow is greater than 180 ml/minute after step 12, shut off the engine and remove the #1 fuel injector supply
line. Re torque the high-pressure connector nut. Cap the #1 fuel port usingtool #9011 on the fuel rail and the #1
high pressure connector.
14. Start the engine. Measure the amount of fuel in the graduated cylinder.
15. If the amount of fuel is less than 180 ml/minute, shut off the engine and remove the #1 high pressure connector
and the #1 fuel injector. Inspect for damage, repair/replace as necessary.
16. If the amount of fuel is not less than 180-ml/minute, repeat steps 14-16for cylinders 2-6.

*INTAKE AIR SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST
Diagnostic Test
1.CHARGE AIR COOLER PRESSURE TEST
Loosen air inlet tube clamp at the turbocharger.
Remove the air filter housing and the inlet tube from the vehicle as an assembly.
Install the CAC Pressure Tester #9022 into the inner diameter of the turbocharger, securing it in place with the
supplied three-fingered band clamp, tighten tool clamp to 8n.m (72 in lbs).
NOTE: NEVER ATTEMPT TO START OR RUN THE VEHICLE AT ANY TIME DURING THIS TEST,ENGINE DAM-
AGE MAY OCCUR.
Fasten the safety chain around a solid surface behind the turbocharger. Warning: Never run CAC Pressure test
without the safety chain securely fastened.
Before attaching shop air to the pressure regulator verify that the regulator is at its lowest pressure setting (0 psi).
Attach an air supply to the regulator and slowly increase the pressure until the pressure gauge reads 20 psi.
WARNING: WARNING: Never apply more than 20 PSI.
Using a solution of soap and water spray the Turbocharger, Turbocharger wastegate, Charge Air Cooler Heat
Exchange and CAC Hoses while watching for leaks.
Before any attempt to repair the CAC system is made, its necessary to completely discharge the system. This can
be accomplished by turning the regulator knob counter-clockwise.
Allow for adequate time to pass before removing the CAC Pressure tester from the turbo charger inlet.
Position the Air Filter Housing over thethreemountingstudslocatedonthe inside front fender well and press down
firmly to lock housing into place.
Install Air Inlet Tube over the Turbocharger inlet and torque the band clampto35in.lbs.
