corresponds with a timing hole in the timing case.
The timing holes ensure that the camshaft and the
crankshaft are in time with each other.
The crankshaft gear rotates the idler gear. The idler

gear rotates the camshaft gear and the fuel injection
pump gear. The idler gear for the engine oil pump
is rotated by the crankshaft gear. This idler rotates
the engine oil pump.
The fuel injection pump is a gear-driven pump that

is mounted to the back of the front housing. The
fuel transfer pump is electrically operated. The fuel
transfer pump has an integral fuel filter. The fuel
transfer pump is usually located on the left hand
side of the cylinder block. Some applications may
have the fuel transfer pump and the water separator
(if equipped) relocated off the engine.
The oil pump is driven by an idler gear. The engine

oil pump sends lubricating oil to the main oil gallery.
The oil relief valve is internal to the oil pump.

This allows some of the exhaust to bypass the
turbocharger at higher engine speeds. The
wastegate is a type of valve that automatically
opens at a preset level of boost pressure in order to
allow exhaust gas to flow around the turbine. The
wastegate allows the design of the turbocharger to
be more effective at lower engine speeds.
The wastegate is controlled by a diaphragm. One

side of this diaphragm is open to the atmosphere.
The other side of this diaphragm is open to the
manifold pressure.
Cylinder Head And Valves

The valves and the valve mechanism control
the flow of the air and the exhaust gases in the
cylinder during engine operation. The cylinder head
assembly has two valves for each cylinder. Each
valve has one valve spring. The ports for the inlet
valves are on the left side of the cylinder head. The
ports for the exhaust valves are on the right side
of the cylinder head. Steel valve seat inserts are
installed in the cylinder head for both the inlet and
the exhaust valves. The valve seat inserts can be
replaced.
The valves move along valve guides. The valve

guides can be replaced. The exhaust valve guide
has a counterbore in order to prevent the seizure
of the valve stem. The seizure of the valve stem is
caused by a buildup of carbon under the head of
the valve.
The inlet and the exhaust valves are opened

and closed by the rotation and movement of the
following components:
• Crankshaft
• Camshaft
• Valve lifters
• Pushrods
• Rocker arms
• Valve springs

The oil flows from the oil filter through a passage

that is drilled across the cylinder block to the oil
gallery (4). The oil gallery is drilled through the total
length of the left side of the cylinder block. If the oil
filter is on the right side of the engine, the oil flows
through a passage that is drilled across the cylinder
block to the pressure gallery.
Lubricating oil from the oil gallery flows through

high pressure passages to the main bearings of
the crankshaft (5). Then, the oil flows through the
passages in the crankshaft to the connecting rod
bearing journals (6). The pistons and the cylinder
bores are lubricated by the splash of oil and the
oil mist.
Lubricating oil from the main bearings flows through

passages in the cylinder block to the journals of the
camshaft. Then, the oil flows from the second journal
of the camshaft (2) at a reduced pressure to the
cylinder head. The oil then flows through the center
of the rocker shaft (1) to the rocker arm levers. The
valve stems, the valve springs and the valve lifters
are lubricated by the splash and the oil mist.
The hub of the idler gear is lubricated by oil from

the oil gallery. The timing gears are lubricated by
the splash from the oil.
Turbochargers are lubricated by oil from a

connection on the side of the cylinder block. An
external line from the cylinder block supplies oil to
the turbocharger. The oil then flows through a line
to the oil pan.
Engines have piston cooling jets that are supplied

with oil from the oil gallery. The piston cooling jets
spray lubricating oil on the underside of the pistons
in order to cool the pistons.

Electrical System
The electrical system is a negative ground system.
The charging circuit operates when the engine

is running. The alternator in the charging circuit
produces direct current for the electrical system.

switch cable
The starting motor turns the engine flywheel. The Alternator

rpm must be high enough in order to initiate a
sustained operation of the fuel ignition in the
cylinders.
The starting motor has a solenoid. When the ignition

switch is activated, voltage from the electrical
system will cause the solenoid to move the pinion
toward the flywheel ring gear of the engine. The
electrical contacts in the solenoid close the circuit
between the battery and the starting motor barely
before the pinion engages the ring gear. This
causes the starting motor to rotate. This type of
activation is called a positive shift.
When the engine begins to run, the overrunning

clutch of the pinion drive prevents damage to the
armature. Damage to the armature is caused by
excessive speeds. The clutch prevents damage
by stopping the mechanical connection. However,
the pinion will stay meshed with the ring gear until
the ignition switch is released. A spring in the
overrunning clutch returns the clutch to the rest Illustration 15 g00303424
position.
(1) Shaft for mounting the pulley
The alternator produces the following electrical

output:
• Three-phase
• Full-wave
• Rectified
21
The alternator is an electro-mechanical component.

The alternator is driven by a belt from the crankshaft
pulley. The alternator charges the storage battery
during the engine operation.
The alternator converts the mechanical energy

and the magnetic energy into alternating current
and voltage. This conversion is done by rotating a
direct current electromagnetic field on the inside of
a three-phase stator. The electromagnetic field is
generated by electrical current flowing through a
rotor. The stator generates alternating current and
voltage.
The alternating current is changed to direct current

by a three-phase, full-wave rectifier. Direct current
flows to the output terminal of the alternator. The
rectifier has three exciter diodes. The direct current
is used for the charging process.
A regulator is installed on the rear end of the

alternator. Two brushes conduct current through two
slip rings. The current then flows to the rotor field. A
capacitor protects the rectifier from high voltages.
The alternator is connected to the battery through

the ignition switch. Therefore, alternator excitation
occurs when the switch is in the ON position.

15.0 mm (0.60 inch).
4. Move the valve in a radial direction away from

the dial indicator. Make sure that the valve moves
away from the dial indicator as far as possible.
Position the contact point of the dial indicator on
the edge of the valve head. Set the position of
the needle of the dial indicator to zero.
5. Move the valve in a radial direction toward

the dial indicator as far as possible. Note the
distance of movement which is indicated on the
dial indicator. If the distance is greater than the
maximum clearance of the valve in the valve
guide, replace the valve guide.
When new valve guides are installed, new valves

and new valve seat inserts must be installed.
Valve guides and valve seat inserts are supplied
as an unfinished part. The unfinished valve
guides and unfinished valve seat inserts are
installed in the cylinder head. Then, the valve
guides and valve inserts are cut and reamed in

Engine Oil Pressure - Test

If any part of the oil pump is worn enough in order
to affect the performance of the oil pump, the oil
pump must be replaced.
Low Oil Pressure Perform the following procedures in order to inspect
the oil pump for clearances and torques.
The following conditions will cause low oil pressure.
Refer to the Specifications Module, “Engine Oil
• The oil level is low in the crankcase. Pump”.
• A restriction exists on the oil suction screen. 1. Remove the oil pump from the engine. Refer
to the Disassembly and Assembly, “Engine Oil
• Connections in the oil lines are leaking. Pump - Remove”. Remove the cover of the oil
pump.
• The connecting rod or the main bearings are
worn. 2. Remove the outer rotor. Clean all of the parts.
Look for cracks in the metal or other damage.
• The rotors in the oil pump are worn.
• The oil pressure relief valve is operating
incorrectly.
A worn oil pressure relief valve can allow oil to leak

through the valve which lowers the oil pressure.
Refer to the Specifications Module, “Engine Oil
Relief Valve” for the correct operating pressure and
other information.
When the engine runs at the normal temperature for

operation and at high idle, the oil pressure must be
a minimum of 280 kPa (40 psi). A lower pressure is
normal at low idle.
A suitable pressure gauge can be used in order to

test the pressure of the lubrication system.

Excessive Bearing Wear -

Inspect
When some components of the engine show

bearing wear in a short time, the cause can be a
restriction in an oil passage.
An engine oil pressure indicator may show that there

is enough oil pressure, but a component is worn
due to a lack of lubrication. In such a case, look at
the passage for the oil supply to the component. A
restriction in an oil supply passage will not allow
enough lubrication to reach a component. This will
result in early wear.

Engine Oil Leaks on the Outside of
the Engine
Check for leakage at the seals at each end of
the crankshaft. Look for leakage at the gasket
for the engine oil pan and all lubrication system
connections. Look for any engine oil that may be
leaking from the crankcase breather. This can
be caused by combustion gas leakage around
the pistons. A dirty crankcase breather will cause
high pressure in the crankcase. A dirty crankcase
breather will cause the gaskets and the seals to
leak.
Engine Oil Leaks into the

Combustion Area of the Cylinders
Engine oil that is leaking into the combustion area
of the cylinders can be the cause of blue smoke.
There are several possible ways for engine oil to

and/or the intermediate ring

• Leaks past the seal rings in the turbocharger shaft

• Overfilling of the crankcase
• Wrong dipstick or guide tube
• Sustained operation at light loads
Excessive consumption of engine oil can also result
if engine oil with the wrong viscosity is used. Engine
oil with a thin viscosity can be caused by fuel
leakage into the crankcase or by increased engine
temperature.
i01945015
Increased Engine Oil

Temperature - Inspect
Look for a restriction in the oil passages of the oil

cooler (if equipped). The oil temperature may be
higher than normal when the engine is operating. In
such a case, the oil cooler may have a restriction.
A restriction in the oil cooler will not cause low oil
pressure in the engine.

Cooling System 6. Check the filler cap. A pressure drop in the

cooling system can cause the boiling point to be

This combination of less air and less coolant flow
during high input of fuel will cause above normal

together. When a diagnosis is made of a cooling
system problem, temperature and pressure must

This engine has a pressure type cooling system. A
pressure type cooling system gives two advantages:
• The pressure type cooling system can operate

safely at a higher temperature than the boiling
point of water at a range of atmospheric
pressures.
• The pressure type cooling system prevents

cavitation in the water pump.
Cavitation is the sudden generation of low pressure

bubbles in liquids by mechanical forces. The
generation of an air or steam pocket is much more
difficult in a pressure type cooling system.
