The document outlines the procedure for removing, disassembling, and installing fuel injection pumps on a diesel engine.

The key steps to remove a fuel injection pump are to remove the plug and fuel line, loosen the nut using a tool, install another tool to move the fuel racks to the center position, and then remove the bushing and pump using additional tools.

The steps to disassemble a fuel injection pump are to remove the ring, separate the bonnet from the barrel, and remove the spring and check assembly from the bonnet and then remove the plunger, washer and spring from the barrel.

3. Install Tool (A) in the fuel pump housing as shown with the square end down. Use a small
amount of hand force to push down on Tool (A) while the control lever is moved forward to the
"FUEL ON" position. Rack travel will stop in the center (zero) position. Hold a light forward
force on the governor control lever to keep the fuel racks in the center (zero) position.

4. Use Tool (B) to remove bushing (3) from the fuel injection pump housing.

NOTICE
When injection pumps, spacers and lifters are removed from the
injection pump housing, keep the parts of each pump together so they
can be installed in their original location.

6. Use Tool (C) to remove fuel injection pump (5).

7. Remove spacer (6) from the fuel injection pump housing. Make a note of the position from
which each spacer was removed so each spacer can be installed in its original position.

NOTICE
Be careful when the fuel injection pumps are disassembled. Do not
damage the surfaces of the plungers, barrels and bonnets. Any
scratches will cause leakage inside the fuel injection pump. The
plunger and barrel for each pump are made as a set. Do not put the
plunger of one pump in the barrel of another pump. The check
assemblies are made as a set. Do not mix the parts of the different
check assemblies. Do not remove or make any adjustments of the gear
segment on the plunger. It has been preset at the factory. If one part
has wear, install a complete new pump assembly. Be careful when the
plunger is put into the bore of the barrel.

8. Disassemble the fuel injection pump as follows: Remove ring (7). Separate bonnet (10) from
barrel (9). Remove the spring and the check assembly from the bonnet. Remove plunger (8), the
washer and spring from barrel (9).

5. Note the location of dowels (11) and (12) in the fuel injection pump housing. These dowels are
for alignment of the fuel injection pump.

View Image

6. Slot (13) in gear segment (5) must align with dowel (11).

7. Groove (14) must engage with dowel (12).

8. Use Tool (A) to put the fuel racks in the center (zero) position. See Remove Fuel Injection
Pumps.

9. Use Tool (E) to turn the engine in a counterclockwise direction until the fuel injection pump
camshaft lobe is down for the fuel injection pump to be installed. Use Tool (C) to install the fuel
injection pump.

10. Install a new O-ring seal (15) and bushing (16) in the fuel injection pump housing bore. If the
pump is in the correct position, bushing (16) can be installed with fingers until it is even with the
outside surface of the housing. If the bushing cannot be installed as described, remove the fuel
injection pump, and repeat Steps 4 through 6. Use Tool (B) to tighten bushing (16) to a torque of
205 ± 14 N·m (154 ± 10 lb ft).

11. Install the felt washer in the fuel injection pump housing.

12. Connect the fuel injection line to the fuel injection pump. Use Tool (D) to tighten the fuel
injection line nuts to a torque of 41 ± 7 N·m (30 ± 5 lb ft).

13. Check the correct installation of the fuel injection pumps with the engine stopped. See the
topic "Fuel Rack Travel".

If one or more of the injection pumps have been installed wrong,


damage to the engine is possible if cautions are not taken when the
engine is first started. Make preparation to close off the air intake to
stop the engine if necessary.

14. Remove Tool (A), and install the plug into the fuel injection pump housing.
