WARNING
Improper practices, carelessness, or ignoring the warnings can cause burns, cuts, mutilation, asphyxiation or
other personal injury or death.
Read and understand all of the safety precautions and warnings before performing any repair. This list contains the
general safety precautions that must be followed to provide personal safety. Special safety precautions are included
in the procedures when they apply.
• Work in an area surrounding the product that is dry, well lit, ventilated, free from clutter, loose tools, parts, ignition
sources and hazardous substances. Be aware of hazardous conditions that can exist.
• Always wear protective glasses and protective shoes when working.
• Rotating parts can cause cuts, mutilation or strangulation.
• Do not wear loose-fitting or torn clothing. Remove all jewelry when working.
• Disconnect the battery (negative [-] cable first) and discharge any capacitors before beginning any repair work.
Disconnect the air starting motor if equipped to prevent accidental engine starting. Put a "Do Not Operate" tag in
the operator's compartment or on the controls.
• Use ONLY the proper engine barring techniques for manually rotating the engine. Do not attempt to rotate the
crankshaft by pulling or prying on the fan. This practice can cause serious personal injury, property damage, or
damage to the fan blade(s) causing premature fan failure.
• If an engine has been operating and the coolant is hot, allow the engine to cool before slowly loosening the filler
cap to relieve the pressure from the cooling system.
• Always use blocks or proper stands to support the product before performing any service work. Do not work on
anything that is supported ONLY by lifting jacks or a hoist.
• Relieve all pressure in the air, oil, fuel, and cooling systems before any lines, fittings, or related items are removed
or disconnected. Be alert for possible pressure when disconnecting any device from a system that utilizes
pressure. Do not check for pressure leaks with your hand. High pressure oil or fuel can cause personal injury.
• To reduce the possibility of suffocation and frostbite, wear protective clothing and ONLY disconnect liquid
refrigerant (Freon) lines in a well ventilated area. To protect the environment, liquid refrigerant systems must be
properly emptied and filled using equipment that prevents the release of refrigerant gas (fluorocarbons) into the
atmosphere. Federal law requires capturing and recycling refrigerant.
• To reduce the possibility of personal injury, use a hoist or get assistance when lifting components that weigh 23 kg
[50 lb] or more. Make sure all lifting devices such as chains, hooks, or slings are in good condition and are of the
correct capacity. Make sure hooks are positioned correctly. Always use a spreader bar when necessary. The lifting
hooks must not be side-loaded.
• Corrosion inhibitor, a component of SCA and lubricating oil, contains alkali. Do not get the substance in eyes.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Do not swallow internally. In case of contact, immediately wash
skin with soap and water. In case of contact, immediately flood eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of
15 minutes. IMMEDIATELY CALL A PHYSICIAN. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
• Naptha and Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) are flammable materials and must be used with caution. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions to provide complete safety when using these materials. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN.
• To reduce the possibility of burns, be alert for hot parts on products that have just been turned off, exhaust gas
flow, and hot fluids in lines, tubes, and compartments.
• Always use tools that are in good condition. Make sure you understand how to use the tools before performing any
service work. Use ONLY genuine Cummins® or Cummins ReCon® replacement parts.
• Always use the same fastener part number (or equivalent) when replacing fasteners. Do not use a fastener of
lesser quality if replacements are necessary.
• When necessary, the removal and replacement of any guards covering rotating components, drives, and/or belts
should only be carried out be a trained technician. Before removing any guards the engine must be turned off and
any starting mechanisms must be isolated. All fasteners must be replaced on re-fitting the guards.
• Do not perform any repair when fatigued or after consuming alcohol or drugs that can impair your functioning.

• Some state and federal agencies in the United States of America have determined that used engine oil can be
carcinogenic and can cause reproductive toxicity. Avoid inhalation of vapors, ingestion, and prolonged contact with
used engine oil.
• Do not connect the jumper starting or battery charging cables to any ignition or governor control wiring. This can
cause electrical damage to the ignition or governor.
• Always torque fasteners and fuel connections to the required specifications. Overtightening or undertightening can
allow leakage. This is critical to the natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas fuel and air systems.
• Always test for fuel leaks as instructed, as odorant can fade.
• Close the manual fuel valves prior to performing maintenance and repairs, and when storing the vehicle inside.
• Coolant is toxic. If not reused, dispose of in accordance with local environmental regulations.
• The catalyst reagent contains urea. Do not get the substance in your eyes. In case of contact, immediately flood

Page i-12 Section i - Introduction
WARNING
Abrasive material must be kept out of or removed from oil passages and parts wear points. Abrasive material
in oil passages can cause bearing and bushing failures that can progress to major component damage
beyond reuse. This is particularly true of main and rod bearings.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend the use of emery cloth or sand paper on any part of an assembled engine or
component including but not limited to removing the carbon ridge from cylinder liners or to clean block decks or
counterbores.
Great care must be taken when using abrasive products to clean engine parts, particularly on partially assembled
engines. Abrasive cleaning products come in many forms and sizes. All of them contain aluminum oxide particles,
silicon carbide, or sand or some other similar hard material. These particles are harder than most of the parts in the
engine. Since they are harder, if they are pressed against softer material they will either damage the material or
become embedded in it. These materials fall off the holding media as the product is used. If the products are used with
power equipment the particles are thrown about the engine. If the particles fall between two moving parts, damage to
the moving parts is likely.
If particles that are smaller than the clearance between the parts while they are at rest (engine stopped), but larger
than the running clearance then damage will occur when the parts move relative to each other (engine started). While
the engine is running and there is oil pressure, particles that are smaller than the bearing clearance are likely to pass
between the parts without damage and be trapped in the oil filter. However, particles larger than the bearing clearance
will remove material from one part and can become embedded in one of the parts. Once embedded in one part it will

Section i - Introduction Page i-13
abrade the other part until contact is no longer being made between the two parts. If the damage sufficiently degrades
the oil film, the two parts will come into contact resulting in early wear-out or failure from lack of effective lubrication.
Abrasive particles can fly about during cleaning it is very important to block these particles from entering the engine as
much as possible. This is particularly true of lubricating oil ports and oil drilling holes, especially those located
downstream of the lubricating oil filters. Plug the holes instead of trying to blow the abrasive particles and debris with
compressed air because the debris is often simply blown further into the oil drilling.
All old gasket material must be removed from the parts gasket surfaces. However, it is not necessary to clean and
polish the gasket surface until the machining marks are erased. Excessive sanding or buffing can damage the gasket
surface. Many newer gaskets are of the edge molded type (a steel carrier with a sealing member bonded to the steel).
What little sealing material that can adhere is best removed with a blunt-edged scraper or putty knife. Cleaning gasket
surfaces where an edge-molded gasket is used with abrasive pads or paper is usually a waste of time.
WARNING
Excessive sanding or grinding the carbon ring from the top of the cylinder liners can damage the liner beyond
reuse. The surface finish will be damaged and abrasive particles can be forced into the liner material which
can cause early cylinder wear-out or piston ring failures.
Tape off or plug all openings to any component interior before using abrasive pads or wire brushes. If really necessary
because of time to use a power tool with abrasive pads, tape the oil drillings closed or use plug and clean as much of
the surface as possible with the tool but clean around the oil hole/opening by hand so as to prevent contamination of
the drilling. Then remove the tape or plug and clean the remaining area carefully and without the tool. DO NOT use
compressed air to blow the debris out of oil drilling on an assembled engine! More likely than not, the debris can be
blown further into the drilling. Using compressed air is fine if both ends of the drilling are open but that is rarely the
case when dealing with an assembled engine.
Gasket Surfaces
The object of cleaning gasket surfaces is to remove any gasket material, not refinish the gasket surface of the part.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend any specific brand of liquid gasket remover. If a liquid gasket remover is used,
check the directions to make sure the material being cleaned will not be harmed.
Air powered gasket scrapers can save time but care must be taken to not damage the surface. The angled part of the
scraper must be against the gasket surface to prevent the blade from digging into the surface. Using air powered
gasket scrapers on parts made of soft materials takes skill and care to prevent damage.
Do not scrape or brush across the gasket surface if at all possible.
Solvent and Acid Cleaning
Several solvent and acid-type cleaners can be used to clean the disassembled engine parts (other than pistons. See
Below). Experience has shown that the best results can be obtained using a cleaner that can be heated to 90° to 95°
Celsius (180° to 200° Fahrenheit). Kerosene emulsion based cleaners have different temperature specifications, see
below. A cleaning tank that provides a constant mixing and filtering of the cleaning solution will give the best results.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend any specific cleaners. Always follow the cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
Remove all the gasket material, o-rings, and the deposits of sludge, carbon, etc., with a wire brush or scraper before
putting the parts in a cleaning tank. Be careful not to damage any gasket surfaces. When possible, steam clean the
parts before putting them in the cleaning tank.
WARNING
When using solvents, acids, or alkaline materials for cleaning, follow the manufacturers recommendations for
use. Wear goggles and protective clothing to reduce the possibility of personal injury.
Experience has shown that kerosene emulsion based cleaners perform the best to clean pistons. These cleaners
should not be heated to temperature in excess of 77°C (170°F). The solution begins to break down at temperatures in
excess of 82°C (180°F) and will be less effective.
Do not use solutions composed mainly of chlorinated hydrocarbons with cresols, phenols and/or cresylic components.
They often do not do a good job of removing deposits from the ring groove and are costly to dispose of properly.
Solutions with a pH above approximately 9.5 will cause aluminum to turn black; therefore do not use high alkaline
solutions.
Chemicals with a pH above 7.0 are considered alkaline and those below 7.0 are acidic. As you move further away
from the neutral 7.0, the chemicals become highly alkaline or highly acidic.
Remove all the gasket material, o-rings, and the deposits of sludge, carbon, etc., with a wire brush or scraper before
putting the parts in a cleaning tank. Be careful to not damage any gasket surfaces. When possible use hot high

pressure water or steam clean the parts before putting them in the cleaning tank. Removing the heaviest dirt before
placing in the tank will allow the cleaner to work more effectively and the cleaning agent will last longer.
Rinse all the parts in hot water after cleaning. Dry completely with compressed air. Blow the rinse water from all the
capscrew holes and the oil drillings.
If the parts are not to be used immediately after cleaning, dip them in a suitable rust proofing compound. The rust
proofing compound must be removed from the parts before assembly or installation on the engine.
Steam Cleaning
Steam cleaning can be used to remove all types of dirt that can contaminate the cleaning tank. It is a good method for
cleaning the oil drillings and coolant passages
WARNING
When using a steam cleaner, wear safety glasses or a face shield, as well as protective clothing. Hot steam
can cause serious personal injury.
Do not steam clean the following components:
• Electrical Components
• Wiring Harnesses
• Belts and Hoses
• Bearings (ball or taper roller)
• Electronic Control Module (ECM)
• ECM Connectors
• Capacitive Coil Driver Module (CCD)
• Ignition Coils and Leads
• NOx Sensor
• Fuel Control Valve
• Throttle Driver and Actuator.
CAUTION
Do not use bead blasting cleaning methods on aluminum pistons skirts or the pin bores in any piston, piston
skirt or piston crown. Small particles of the media will embed in the aluminum or other soft metal and result in
premature wear of the cylinder liner, piston rings, pins and pin bores. Valves, turbocharger shafts, etc., can
also be damaged. Follow the cleaning directions listed in the procedures.
CAUTION
Do not contaminate wash tanks and tank type solvent cleaners with the foreign material and plastic beads.
Remove the foreign material and plastic beads with compressed air, hot high pressure water or steam before
placing them in tanks or cleaners. The foreign material and plastic beads can contaminate the tank and any
other engine parts cleaned in the tank. Contaminated parts may cause failures from abrasive wear.
Plastic bead blasting media, Part Number 3822735, can be used to clean all piston ring grooves. Do not sure any
bead blasting media on piston pin bores or aluminum skirts.
Follow the equipment manufacturer's cleaning instructions. Make sure to adjust the air pressure in the blasting
machine to the bead manufacturer's recommendations. Turning up the pressure can move material on the part and
cause the plastic bead media to wear out more quickly. The following guidelines can be used to adapt to
manufacturer's instructions:
1 Bead size: U.S. size Number 16 — 20 for piston cleaning with plastic bead media, Part Number 3822735

Section i - Introduction Page i-15
2 Operating Pressure — 270 kPa (40 psi) for piston cleaning. Pressure should not cause beads to break.
3 Steam clean or wash the parts with solvent to remove all of the foreign material and plastic beads after cleaning.
Rinse with hot water. Dry with compressed air.
CAUTION
The bead blasting operation must not disturb the metal surface. If the metal surface is disturbed the engine
can be damaged due to increased parts clearance or inadequate surface finish on parts that move against
other parts.
When cleaning pistons, it is not necessary to remove all the dark stain from the piston. All that is necessary is to
remove the carbon on the rim and in the ring grooves. This is best done by directing the blast across the part as
opposed to straight at the part. If the machining marks are disturbed by the blasting process, then the pressure is too
high or the blast is being held on one spot too long. The blast operation must not disturb the metal surface.
Walnut shell bead blast material is sometimes used to clean ferrous metals (iron and steel). Walnut shell blasting
produces a great amount of dust particularly when the pressure if the air pressure on the blasting machine is
increased above media manufacturer's recommendation. Cummins Inc. recommends not using walnut shell media to
clean engine parts due to the risk media embedment and subsequent contamination of the engine.
Cummins Inc. now recommends glass bead media NOT used to clean any engine parts. Glass media is too easily
embedded into the material particularly in soft materials and when air pressures greater than media manufacturer's
recommend are used. The glass is an abrasive so when it is in a moving part, that part is abrading all the parts in
contact with it. When higher pressures are used the media is broken and forms a dust of a very small size that floats
easily in the air. This dust is very hard to control in the shop, particularly if only compressed air (and not hot water) is
used to blow the media after it is removed from the blasting cabinet (blowing the part off inside the cabinet may
remove large accumulations but never removes all the media).
Bead blasting is best used on stubborn dirt/carbon build-up that has not been removed by first steam/higher pressure
washing then washing in a heated wash tank. This is particularly true of pistons. Steam and soak the pistons first then
use the plastic bead method to safely remove the carbon remaining in the grooves (instead of running the risk of
damaging the surface finish of the groove with a wire wheel or end of a broken piston ring. Make sure the parts are dry
and oil free before bead blasting to prevent clogging the return on the blasting machine.
Always direct the bead blaster nozzle "across" rather than directly at the part. This allows the bead to get under the
unwanted material. Keep the nozzle moving rather than hold on one place. Keeping the nozzle directed at one-place
too long causes the metal to heat up and be moved around. Remember that the spray is not just hitting the dirt or
carbon. If the machining marks on the piston groove or rim have been disturbed then there has not been enough
movement of the nozzle and/or the air pressure is too high.
Never bead blast valve stems. Tape or use a sleeve to protect the stems during bead blasting. Direct the nozzle
across the seat surface and radius rather than straight at them. The object is to remove any carbon build up and
continuing to blast to remove the stain is a waste of time.
Fuel System
When servicing any fuel system components, which can be exposed to potential contaminants, prior to disassembly,
clean the fittings, mounting hardware, and the area around the component to be removed. If the surrounding areas are
not cleaned, dirt or contaminants can be introduced into the fuel system.
The internal drillings of some injectors are extremely small and susceptible to plugging from contamination. Some fuel
injection systems can operate at very high pressures. High pressure fuel can convert simple particles of dirt and rust
into a highly abrasive contaminant that can damage the high pressure pumping components and fuel injectors.
Electrical contact cleaner can be used if steam cleaning tools are not available. Use electrical contact cleaner rather
than compressed air, to wash dirt and debris away from fuel system fittings. Diesel fuel on exposed fuel system parts
attracts airborne contaminants.
Choose lint free towels for fuel system work.
Cap and plug fuel lines, fittings, and ports whenever the fuel system is opened. Rust, dirt, and paint can enter the fuel
system whenever a fuel line or other component is loosened or removed from the engine. In many instances, a good
practice is to loosen a line or fitting to break the rust and paint loose, and then clean off the loosened material.
When removing fuel lines or fittings from a new or newly-painted engine, make sure to remove loose paint flakes/chips
that can be created when a wrench contacts painted line nuts or fittings, or when quick disconnect fittings are
removed.
Fuel filters are rated in microns. The word micron is the abbreviation for a micrometer, or one millionth of a meter. The
micron rating is the size of the smallest particles that will be captured by the filter media. As a reference, a human hair

is 76 microns [0.003 in] in diameter. One micron measures 0.001 mm [0.00004 in.]. The contaminants being filtered
out are smaller than can be seen with the human eye, a magnifying glass, or a low powered microscope.
The tools used for fuel system troubleshooting and repair are to be cleaned regularly to avoid contamination. Like fuel
system parts, tools that are coated with oil or fuel attract airborne contaminants. Remember the following points
regarding your fuel system tools:
• Fuel system tools are to be kept as clean as possible.
• Clean and dry the tools before returning them to the tool box.
• If possible, store fuel system tools in sealed containers.
• Make sure fuel system tools are clean before use.

WARNING
Depending on the circumstance, diesel fuel is
flammable. When inspecting or performing service or
repairs on the fuel system, to reduce the possibility of
fire and resulting severe personal injury, death, or
property damage, never smoke or allow sparks or
flames (such as pilot lights, electrical switches, or
welding equipment) in the work area.
Close the fuel supply and return valves, if equipped.
Disconnect the wiring harness from the water-in-fuel
sensor, if equipped.
Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel heater, if
equipped.
Loosen and remove the fuel filter.
Make sure the seal ring does not stick to the filter head.

WARNING
Do not open the high-pressure fuel system with the
engine running. Engine operation causes high fuel
pressure. High-pressure fuel spray can cause serious
injury or death.
Open the fuel supply and return valves, if equipped.
Cycle the keyswitch and allow the lift pump to operate for
30 seconds. Then turn the keyswitch OFF and back ON
again, allowing the lift pump to operate again.
Allow the lift pump to operate for three or four 30-second
cycles before attempting to start the engine.
Finishing Steps
• Operate the fuel lift pump to help prime the fuel
system. Turn the keyswitch to RUN, but do not
attempt to start the engine. This will cause the engine
control module (ECM) to operate the fuel lift pump
through a priming cycle which lasts at least 30
seconds. Cycle the lift pump several times by keying
OFF, waiting 10 seconds, and keying ON again.
• Once the engine is started, slowly increase the engine
speed while air is purged from the fuel plumbing.

Installation of the banjo flow adapter at any place
other than the fuel drain manifold can cause damage
to high pressure fuel system components.
Return fuel is routed from the injectors, the fuel rail
pressure relief valve, and the fuel pump head through
three different drain lines.
Measurement of fuel injector leakage requires the use of a
fuel return hose, Part Number 3164618.
The tool is used to isolate the leakage from just the
injectors, so it can be measured with a graduated cylinder.

Fill the engine with clean lubricating oil to the proper level.
NOTE: When filling the oil pan, use the fill tube on the
side of the engine rather than on top of the rocker lever
cover.
NOTE: White, tan, or brown foam or froth is sometimes
found under the oil fill cap, inside the valve cover, or in the
crankcase breather. Foam or froth can occur if the engine
operates below thermostat opening temperature for
sustained periods. This type of foam or froth will not affect
the function of the engine. Foam or froth can also occur if
there is an internal coolant leak. If an internal coolant leak
is suspected, perform the Coolant Leak - Internal
troubleshooting tree.
Verify lubricating oil pan capacities. Refer to Procedure
018-017 in Section V.
CAUTION
If no oil pressure is noted within 15 seconds after the
engine is started, shut down the engine to reduce the
possibility of internal engine damage.
Idle the engine to inspect for leaks at the drain plug.

WARNING
Normal engine operation creates highly pressurized
fuel in the fuel line which will remain in the fuel line
after engine shutdown. Never open the fuel system
when the engine is operating. Before servicing the
fuel system, always loosen the pump to rail fuel line
at the rail to vent the pressure. Keep hands clear of
the line when loosening. High pressure fuel spray can
penetrate the skin, resulting in serious personal injury
or death.
Remove the fuel pump head or accumulator.
Use the following procedure for CAPS Fuel System. Refer
to Procedure 005-085 in Section 5.
Use the following procedure for Cummins® Common Rail
Fuel System. Refer to Procedure 005-227 in Section 5.
Use a black light, Part Number 3163337, to inspect the
fuel pump head and camshaft housing for signs of fuel.
Fuel will appear to be yellow.
NOTE: A small amount of fuel on the pumping plungers is
normal.
If there are signs of a significant amount of fuel in the
camshaft housing or on the fuel pump head, replace the
fuel pump head.
Install the fuel pump head or accumulator.
Use the following procedure for CAPS Fuel System. Refer

Troubleshooting
NOTE: This content in this section is generic and may not apply to all available cooling fan drive belt systems.
The following section contains diagnostic information and procedures to aid in identifying drive belt and accessory
drive issues. These issues may include:
• Belt noise (squeal and chirp)
• Belt tracking (jumping)
• Belt fraying
• Snub breaks and punctures.
Common causes of drive belt noise, fraying, and breaks are:
• Drive pulley misalignment
• Embedded debris in drive pulley grooves
• Incorrect belt material and/or belt length
• Damaged or incorrect automatic belt tensioner
• Improper drive belt routing
• Improper fan size and/or fan clutch.
The original drive belt and tensioner should be used, if possible, while troubleshooting drive belt issues. Replacement
of a belt and/or tensioner prior to troubleshooting may mask the root cause of the issue due to the break-in time
required for a belt and tensioner.

pivoted away from the drive belt. Pivoting in the
wrong direction can result in damage to the belt
tensioner.
CAUTION
Applying excessive force in the opposite direction of
windup or after the tensioner has been wound up to
the positive stop can cause the tensioner arm to
crack or break
CAUTION
Using a socket extension is not recommended
because it can cause axial twisting damage to the belt
tensioner.
Lift the tensioner to remove the drive belt.
NOTE: If a socket extension is necessary, support the
head of the ratchet with one hand to prevent the belt
tensioner arm from unintended loading.

WARNING
Do not remove the pressure cap from a hot engine.
Wait until the coolant temperature is below 50°C
[120°F] before removing the pressure cap. Heated
coolant spray or steam can cause personal injury.
CAUTION
Do not use the coolant replacement tool to evacuate
contaminated coolant or a system that is suspected
of contamination. This could result in cross
contamination of coolant. The coolant drain method
should be used for removing contaminated coolant.
Refer to the manufacturer’s manual for specific
instructions on cleaning the tool of contaminants.
NOTE: See equipment manufacturer service information
for special coolant drain requirements. Special
instructions may also be located near the cooling system
access point or fill door on the vehicle.
Isolate the engine from the vehicle cooling system by
closing coolant flow valves to the equipment heating
systems before starting the repair. This will prevent the
heater circuit from draining, minimizing the chance for air
pockets to be present during the fill process.
This air can be very difficult to purge in some applications
with several feet of plumbing and multiple heater cores.
Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING
Coolant is toxic. Keep away from children and pets. If
not reused, dispose of in accordance with local
environmental regulations.
The coolant replacement tool tank capacity of 68 Liters
[18 gal] is adequate for most applications. An additional
storage tank can be used for cooling system packages
with more than 68 Liters [18 gal] capacity.
Be sure there is no air pressure in the coolant
replacement tool tank by opening the pressure relief valve
(1) located on the control block of the coolant replacement
tool.

Injection
CAUTION
The cooling system must be filled properly to prevent
air locks or serious engine damage can result.
The following steps are used to inject coolant into the
cooling system using the coolant replacer tool, Part
Number 2892459.
NOTE: When the vehicle/equipment or engine is
equipped with a quick disconnect fitting in the cooling
system package, the Coolant Replacer Method is the
preferred method for coolant removal. Use the coolant
replacer tool, Part Number 2892459. If the vehicle/
equipment or engine does not have a quick disconnect
fitting presently installed, one can be installed in the
cooling system package to utilize the Coolant Replacer
Method; otherwise the coolant drain and fill method must
be used.
CAUTION
Opening the manual bleed valve or removing the pipe
plug on applicable installations is critical. Failure to
do so can result in engine damage.
NOTE: Some applications can have a manual bleed valve
or pipe plug that is required to be opened to properly fill
the system. The upper radiator pipe is a common location.
If applicable, open the manual bleed valve or remove the
pipe plug before filling the cooling system.

Fill the cooling system with coolant to the bottom of the fill
neck in the radiator fill or recovery/expansion tank or until
the coolant replacer tool is empty (whichever occurs first).
On applications that use a coolant recovery system, check
to make sure the coolant is at the appropriate level in the
coolant recovery tank for the engine temperature.
Many coolant recovery/expansion tanks, also called
auxiliary tanks, have sight glasses or are made of a clear
material (not shown) to aid in checking the coolant level
without removing the radiator cap.
It is important to understand the impact of temperature on
the expansion of the coolant. Most auxiliary tanks do not
have a provision for a "FULL HOT" coolant level. Filling
the "top tank" while hot will result in a low operating level
once the system has cooled.

CAUTION
The cooling system must be filled properly to prevent
air locks or serious engine damage can result.
NOTE: If all coolant drained from the system was
collected, the same volume or more must go back into
the system. If any drained coolant remains in the tool after
filling, this is an indication of an air pocket in the cooling
system package which must be purged before returning
the vehicle to service.
NOTE: Top off of coolant might be necessary for repairs
that were performed to correct a coolant loss issue.
If all coolant drained from the system would not return to
the system or the level is above the maximum level. This
is an indication of an air pocket in the cooling system
package, which must be purged before returning the
vehicle to service.
To remove an air pocket from the cooling system, the
coolant replacement tool can be used. Refer to the
vacuum section of this procedure.
Vacuum
The following steps are used to place a vacuum on the
cooling system using the coolant replacer tool, Part
Number 2892459.
Be sure there is no air pressure in the coolant
replacement tool tank by opening the pressure relief valve
(1) located on the control block of the coolant replacement
tool.
Clamp off any vent hoses/connections or overflow to the
cooling system.

Attach the coolant dam handle (1) to the fill hose of the
coolant replacement tool.
Place the coolant dam over the coolant fill neck in the
radiator or overflow tank.
The size of the fill neck will differ between OEMs. Choose
the appropriate sized coolant dam rubber adapters.
Switch the coolant replacement tool control lever (1) to
“VAC” and leave the service hose valve (2) closed. This
will create a vacuum in the tank to evacuate coolant from
the cooling system package.
Monitor the gauge (3) and build a vacuum of
approximately 508 mm-Hg [20 in-Hg] in the coolant
replacement tool tank.
Slowly open the service hose valve (2) by turning it
clockwise until it is completely open approximately ¼
turn.
Once the cooling system is put into a vacuum, any air
trapped in the cooling system will be evacuated through
the top of the system. This is noticed as air bubbles
through the overflow tank or top of the radiator.

CAUTION
If the impeller has failed and pieces are missing, all
pieces must be retrieved. The engine heat exchanger,
marine gear oil cooler, marine gear oil cooler and fuel
cooler assembly, and sea water aftercooler must be
flushed. Refer to procedures 008-053, 008-041,
008-129, and 010-005 for flushing these components.
Failure to do so can result in overheating and damage
to engine can occur.
Impeller debris can also drop into the inlet piping. Make
sure all debris is removed before installing a new impeller;
otherwise, additional impeller failures or engine
overheating will occur.
CAUTION

differential include:
1. keel cooler size is too small
2. seawater temperature is too hot
3. marine growth on the keel cooler
4. fouling to the inside of the keel cooler
5. internal damage to the keel cooler
6. external damage to the keel cooler.
Refer to the keel cooler OEM for troubleshooting and
repair manual.
Operate the engine under rated rpm and load until the
engine temperature reaches it's maximum. Record the
inlet and outlet coolant pressure. If the pressure difference
is less than 34 kPa [5 psi], remove and test the keel
cooler thermostat. Refer to Procedure 008-014.
If the pressure difference is greater than 34 kPa [5 psi],

Initial Check
Visually check the DEF supply and return lines and fittings
for signs of damage, leaks, or faulty connectors.
DEF leaks will leave a white deposit around the fittings.
A hand vacuum pump is required for this procedure.
Check the performance of the hand vacuum pump prior to
carrying out this test.
This can be done by blocking the pump nozzle and
pumping until a vacuum of 15 kPa [2 psi] is generated.
The vacuum pump gauge should show no noticeable
change to the vacuum over the next 60 seconds.
NOTE: Always use the collection cup with the vacuum
pump during testing to make sure that no diesel exhaust
fluid reaches the vacuum pump, as this could potentially
result in corrosion or damage to the vacuum pump’s
internal components.

NOTE: Do not power wash or steam clean this unit.
Leak Test
1 Disconnect the DEF supply pipework from the DEF
dosing unit and drain any excess DEF into a suitable
container, then remove the DEF supply line connection
from the DEF tank.
2 Block one end of the DEF supply line and attach the
male J2044 line from the vacuum test kit to the
opposite end.
3 Slowly operate the vacuum pump until a vacuum of 15
kPa [2 psi] is achieved, then hold for 60 seconds.
Observe the gauge to confirm that the pump holds the
vacuum, with no noticeable change to gauge reading.
If the gauge value changes in this time, a leak exists in
the system. Disconnect the vacuum pump and
investigate / repair the source of the leak.
4 Connect the DEF supply line to the DEF tank.
5 Repeat these steps with the DEF return line.
NOTE: Consult the OEM service manual for information
regarding DEF line routing and repair/replacement

WARNING
The external pressure tank used must meet Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J10 and FMVSS121
standards, and have a safety pressure relief valve which opens between 1034 to 1207 kPa [150 to 175 psi].
Failure to use the proper pressure vessel and plumbing can result in property damage and serious personal
injury.
Start the engine and operate at idle engine speed.
NOTE: Once the external pressure tank pressure reaches 862 kPa [125 psi], shut the engine OFF. Depending on the
size of the external tank and the diameter/length of the discharge hose being used, the buildup time will vary.
For example, a single cylinder (318 cc) compressor filled an 42 liters [11 gal] tank to 862 kPa [125 psi] with a (#10 x 6ft
length) discharge hose in 90 seconds. This was considered to be the specification for this setup.
Verify that the air compressor will build pressure in the external tank. If air pressure successfully builds to 862 kPa
[125 psi], the air compressor functions properly. Remove the external air discharge hose from the air compressor and
install the vehicle air discharge hose and air governor signal hose to the compressor. Reference the symptom tree
being utilized to inspect the rest of the air system components for leaks and proper operation.
If the air compressor fails to build to 862 kPa [125 psi], the air compressor is malfunctioning and the cylinder head
needs to be repaired based on the marking scribed on the head. Refer to Procedure 012-003 in Section 12.
Air Compressor Diagnostic Test
1 Park the vehicle. Use wheel chocks or an appropriate anti-roll device to stabilize the vehicle.
• Drain the vehicle air system.
• Remove the air discharge hose and air govenor signal hose from the air compressor. Install pipe plugs into the air
compressor unloader signal ports.
• Plumb the air compressor discharge hose into an external pressure tank. The external pressure tank must be
equipped with a pressure gauge and pressure relief valve. Make sure that the fittings are installed with appropriate
thread sealant and do not leak.
Start the engine and operate at rated engine speed.
Verify that the air compressor will build pressure in the external tank. If air pressure fails to build in the pressure tank,
the air compressor has malfunctioned. Refer to Procedure 012-013 in Section 12.
NOTE: Once the external pressure tank pressure reaches 689 kPa [100 psi], shut the engine OFF.
Monitor the pressure gauge on the external tank for rapid leak down of the air pressure. If the air tank loses more than
138 kPa [20 psi] in a 5 minute period, the pressure relief valve, intake valve, or exhaust valve has malfunctioned. The
air compressor cylinder head intake and exhaust valve are not serviceable. Replace the air compressor cylinder head.
Refer to Procedure 012-007 in Section 12.
NOTE: Do not cycle air accessories such as seats, doors, wipers, air bags, etc.
1 If there is any noticeable decrease of the air gauge readings, or if the air dryer cycled during the 10 minute test,
repair the leaks.
NOTE: Leaks in systems that hold pressure for 5 to 10 minutes may be hard to find.

The following chart contains general blowby specifications
for MidRange engines. Due to the wide variety of engine
types, configurations, and ratings, these specifications are
intended to only be used as a guide to help identify if a
problem exists. These specifications are not intended to
be used as engine condemnation limits.
NOTE: If internal engine damage is suspected to be the
cause of the excessive blowby condition, other steps can
be taken to confirm this.
Measuring blowby must only be considered when
confirming engine break-in after a rebuild or if another
symptom is present. These symptoms can include:
• Excessive carryover (oil out of the crankcase breather
tube)
• High crankcase pressure (for engines equipped with a
crankcase pressure sensor)
• Low power
• Oil consumption
• Exhaust smoke.
If no other symptom is present, blowby measurements
need not be taken.

CAUTION
When measuring blowby and there is an excessive
amount of oil coming out of the breather tube, the
quantity of oil can affect the blowby measurement.
Operate the engine at rated rpm and full load until a
steady reading is obtained.
NOTE: When measuring blowby, the value can “spike”
initially as the engine reaches peak power and rated
speed. Wait for the blowby measurement to stabilize
before taking a reading.
NOTE: For engine run-in, if a sudden increase in blowby
occurs, or if blowby exceeds the maximum allowable limit
during any run-in step, return to the previous step and
continue the run-in. If blowby does not reach an
acceptable level, discontinue the run-in and determine the
cause.
Record the steady blowby measurement.
Remove the engine blowby service tool and the water
manometer, pressure gauge, or transducer, if the blowby
is within specification.

To reduce the possibility of personal injury, keep
hands, long hair, jewelry, and loose fitting or torn
clothing away from fans and other moving parts.
WARNING
Troubleshooting presents the risk of equipment
damage, personal injury, or death. Troubleshooting
must be performed by trained, experienced
technicians.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with valve (A) open and
valve (B) closed for more than 1 minute. Monitor the
amount of oil accumulating in the bucket. The engine
can run out of lubricating engine oil and severe
engine damage will occur.
Continue operating at rated speed and load.
Open valve (A) and close valve (B).
Record the blowby pressure reading.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine for more than 1 minute.
Monitor the amount of oil accumulating in the
container. The engine can be run out of lubricating
engine oil and severe engine damage will result.
Alternate Turbocharger Isolation Method:
With the turbocharger oil drain line disconnected from the
cylinder block, run the turbocharger drain line into a large
container.
Plug the turbocharger oil drain port in the cylinder block.
Operate the engine at rated speed and under load by
either:
• For engine testing, a chassis dynamometer or engine
dynamometer
• A stall speed test (for engines equipped with automatic
transmissions only).
Record the peak blowby pressure measurement.

Aftertreatment Testing ISC, ISCe, QSC8.3, ISL, ISLe3, [...]
Page 14-54 Section 14 - Engine Testing - Group 14
Under some operating conditions, such as low speed, low load, or stop and go duty cycles, the engine aftertreatment
catalyst may not be operating at very high temperatures, and if non-approved high sulfur content fuel is used, there is
a probability that ammonium sulphate will accumulate on the catalyst, which will consequently reduce the
effectiveness of NOx conversion in the SCR system.
To rectify this problem, a Cummins® Authorized Repair Location will need to perform a Stationary (Parked) De-Sulfur
Regeneration of the aftertreatment catalyst. This must be performed at a Cummins® Authorized Repair Location.
A stationary regeneration can only be performed with the use of the INSITE™ electronic service tool, which is initiated
by selecting the feature option "De-Sulfur Regeneration Test". INSITE™ electronic service tool will then perform a
timed engine warm-up and will then raise the engine speed to between 2380 to 2450 RPM for a defined period. A
stationary (parked) regeneration will typically take approximately 2 hours to complete, and the vehicle must not be left
unattended during this period.
WARNING
During regeneration, exhaust gas temperature can reach 800 °C [1500°F], and exhaust system surface
temperature can exceed 700 °C [1300°F], which is hot enough to ignite or melt common materials, and to burn
people. The exhaust and exhaust components can remain hot after the vehicle has stopped moving. To avoid
the risk of fire, property damage, burns or other serious personal injury, allow the exhaust system to cool
before beginning this procedure or repair and make sure that no combustible materials are located where
they are likely to come in contact with hot exhaust or exhaust components.
NOTE: When the stationary regeneration process has been completed and before the vehicle is returned to service,
the lubricating oil and filter must be changed.
To perform a stationary (parked) regeneration, follow the steps listed:
1 Prepare the vehicle.
• Make sure that the fuel tank is full and that the oil quantity is sufficient.
• Inspect the exhaust piping and components for leaks, cracks, and loose connections. Reference Procedure
010-024 in Section 10 of the appropriate Service Manual. Tighten exhaust clamps, if necessary. Refer to the OEM
service manual.
2 Select an appropriate external location to park the vehicle.
• Preferably on a surface that will not burn or melt under high exhaust temperatures (such as clean concrete or
gravel, not grass or asphalt). Any Items that can burn, melt or explode (such as gasoline, paper, plastics, fabrics,
compressed gas containers, hydraulic lines) must be placed at least 3 m [10 ft] from the exhaust outlet.
3 Park the vehicle securely and make sure that the parking brake is applied.
• Set the transmission in Park, if provided; otherwise in Neutral.
• Place heavy duty wheel chocks at the front and rear of at least two tires.
4 Set up a safe area around the vehicle exhaust, and use barriers to prevent any bystanders from entering within 1.5
m [5 ft] of the exhaust outlet.
• Make sure that a serviceable fire extinguisher is nearby.
• Check the exhaust system components, and confirm that there is nothing on or near the exhaust system surfaces
(such as tools, shop cloths, grease, debris or organic material).
5 Connect the INSITE™ electronic service tool and make sure that it is placed on a stable surface. Check that any
additional fault codes have been resolved and cleared. Initiate the stationary regeneration by selecting the "De-
Sulfur Regeneration Test" and follow the on-screen instructions to perform the process.
• Once the regeneration commences, the engine speed will initially remain at idle to allow the engine to warm-up.
This will be followed by a slow controlled acceleration to attain the appropriate elevated speed for regeneration. At

this point, the fuel injection sequencing is adjusted and it will be noted that the engine running tone will change.
This is normal during the regeneration process. At the end of this elevated speed period, the engine will decelerate
to idle for a short cooling phase, whereby the regeneration process will be completed.
• Select the stop button on the INSITE™ electronic service tool monitor screen
• Depress the clutch (if equipped)
• Depress the brake
• Depress the acceleration pedal
• Switch the engine OFF.
6 Monitor the area.
• Make sure that the vehicle and surrounding area is monitored during regeneration. If any unsafe condition occurs,
shut down the engine immediately.
When the stationary regeneration process is completed, the temperature of the exhaust aftertreatment components
will remain elevated for at least 5 minutes.
WARNING
The exhaust and exhaust components can remain hot after the engine has been shut down or secured. To
avoid the risk of fire, property damage, burns or other serious personal injury, allow the exhaust system to
cool before beginning this procedure or repair and make sure that no combustible materials are located
where they might come in contact with hot exhaust or exhaust components.
Take the vehicle for a short test drive, and operate the vehicle as instructed by INSITE™ electronic service tool, so
that the Aftertreatment High NOx fault code can be reset. Reference the Fault Code Troubleshooting Manual, Bulletin
4021677.
Change the lubricating oil and filter before the vehicle is returned to service. Reference Procedure 007-002 in the
appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual.

WARNING
The engine lifting equipment must be designed to lift
the engine and transmission as an assembly without
causing personal injury.
WARNING
This component or assembly weighs greater than 23
kg [50 lb]. To prevent serious personal injury, be sure
to have assistance or use appropriate lifting
equipment to lift this component or assembly.
Use a hoist or lifting fixture to support the engine.
NOTE: When removing the engine mount fasteners, note
the location of any shims or spacers used.
Remove the capscrews from the engine mounts.
NOTE: Certain applications will require loosening of the
rear engine mount fasteners to allow removal of the front
engine support bracket.
CAUTION
Damaged engine mounts and brackets can cause
engine misalignment. Drivetrain component damage
can result in excessive vibration complaints.
Inspect all rubber-cushioned mounts for cracks and other
damage. Look for interference or contact between metal
components.
Inspect all mounting brackets for cracks and damaged
bolt holes.
Inspect the mounting capscrew to make sure it is not too
long, which will not provide enough preload on the mount.
Replace any damaged parts as necessary.
