General information 10

Introduction

This workshop manual has been designed to provide assistance in the service and the overhaul of 2000 Series engines. Most of the general information, which is included in the User’s Handbook (sections 1 to 9), has not been repeated in this Workshop Manual and the two publications should be used together.

Read the ‘Safety precautions’ and remember them. They are given for your protection and must be applied at all times.

To ensure that you use the correct information for your specific engine type, refer to ‘Engine identification’ on page 12.

Danger is indicated in the text by two methods:

Warning! This indicates that there is a possible danger to the person.

Caution: This indicates that there is a possible danger to the engine.

Note: Is used where the information is important, but there is not a danger.

New 2000 Series engines

A number of specification changes were made to engines produced after July 1996. The changes were introduced on generator set engines from the following engine specification numbers:

2006TG1A SCG0602232006TG2A SGH0602242006TWG2 SGK0602252006TAG2 SGB0602262006TTAG SGJ060227

These engines can be identified by the type of sump fitted. Engines manufactured to the later specification are fitted with a sump made from a composite material. The sumps of earlier engines are made from aluminium.

The specification changes were not applied to industrial engines until August 1998 (specification number: SPD060427) and then to only certain engines. Additionally, industrial engines may be manufactured to the new specification, but retain the aluminium sump.

Perkins Engines Company Limited

is document has been printe

If the specification of your engine is in doubt, contact your Perkins distributor.

In this publication engines manufactured to the later specification will be referred to as New 2000 series engines.

Cylinder bore identification

The left and right sides of the engine are as seen from the rear (flywheel) end.

The numbers of the cylinders start from the front of the crankcase.

11

d from SPI². Not for Resale

Page 12: Perkins 2000 Series Workshop Manual.

10 Engine identification

The engine number is stamped on the data plate which is fastened to the left side of the crankcase.

For early engines, a typical engine number is: 8B13718U 66381T, which consists of these codes:

8B Engine family

13718 Engine number

U Country of manufacture

66381 Build line number

T Year of manufacture

Engines made after August 1994, have a new engine number system. For these engines, a typical number is: SGK 06 0024 U 2238 B, which consists of these codes:

SG Engine application

K Engine type

06 Number of engine cylinders

0024 Engine specification number

U The country of manufacture

2238 Build line number

B Year of manufacture

Units such as the fuel injection pump and turbochargers have their own data plates.

If you need parts, service or information for your engine, you must give the complete engine number to your Perkins distributor.

10General safety precautions

These safety precautions are important. Reference must also be made to the local regulations in the country of operation.

Only use these engines in the type of application for which they have been designed.Do not change the specification of the engine.Do not smoke when you put fuel in the tank.Clean away fuel which has been spilt. Material which has been contaminated by fuel must be moved to a safe place.Do not put fuel in the tank while the engine runs (unless it is absolutely necessary).Do not clean, add lubricating oil, or adjust the engine while it runs (unless you have had the correct training; even then extreme caution must be used to prevent injury).Do not make adjustments that you do not understand.Ensure that the engine does not run in a location where it can cause a concentration of toxic emissions.Other persons must be kept at a safe distance while the engine or equipment is in operation.Do not permit loose clothing or long hair near moving parts.Keep away from moving parts during engine operation. Warning! The fan cannot be seen clearly while the engine runs.Do not operate the engine if a safety guard has been removed.Do not remove the filler cap of the cooling system while the engine is hot and while the coolant is under pressure as dangerous hot coolant can be discharged.Fuel and oil pipes MUST be inspected for cracks or damage before they are fitted to the engine.Do not allow sparks or fire near the batteries (especially when the batteries are on charge), because the gases from the electrolyte are highly flammable. The battery fluid is dangerous to the skin and especially to the eyes.Disconnect the battery terminals before a repair is made to the electrical system.Only one person must control the engine.Ensure that the engine is operated only from the control panel or from the operator’s position.Be extremely careful if emergency repairs must be made in adverse conditions.If your skin comes into contact with high pressure fuel, obtain medical assistance immediately.

Read and use the instructions relevant to lift equipment which are given on page 14.Always use a safety cage to protect the operator when a component is to be pressure tested in a tank of water. Fit safety wires to secure the plugs which seal the hose connections of a component which is to be pressure tested.Do not allow compressed air to contact your skin. If compressed air enters your skin, obtain medical help immediately.Turbochargers operate at a high speed and at high temperatures. Keep fingers, tools and other items away from the inlet and outlet ports of the turbocharger and prevent contact with hot surfaces.Diesel fuel and lubricating oil (especially used lubricating oil) can damage the skin of certain persons. Protect your hands with gloves or a special solution to protect the skin.Do not wear clothing which is contaminated by lubricating oil. Do not put material which is contaminated with oil into the pockets.Discard used lubricating oil in a safe place to prevent contamination.Ensure that the control lever of the transmission drive is in the ‘out-of-drive’ position before the engine is started.The combustible material of some components of the engine (for example certain seals) can become extremely dangerous if it is burned. Never allow this burnt material to come into contact with the skin or with the eyes.Fit only genuine Perkins parts.

10 Safety

Engine lift equipment

Use only the lift equipment which is designed for the engine. The part number for the lift adaptor to use for the engine is: 21825 821.

Use lift equipment or obtain assistance to lift heavy engine components such as the cylinder block, cylinder head, flywheel housing, crankshaft and flywheel.

Check the engine lift brackets for security before the engine is lifted.

Asbestos joints

Some joints and gaskets contain compressed asbestos fibres in a rubber compound or in a metal outer cover. The ‘white’ asbestos (Chrysotile) which is used is a safer type of asbestos and the danger of damage to health is extremely small.

Contact with asbestos particles normally occurs at joint edges or where a joint is damaged during removal, or where a joint is removed by an abrasive method.

To ensure that the risk is kept to a minimum, the procedures given below must be followed when an engine which has asbestos joints is dismantled or assembled.

Work in an area with good ventilation.Do NOT smoke.Use a hand scraper to remove the joints - do NOT use a rotary wire brush.Ensure that the joint to be removed is wet with oil or water to contain any loose particles.Spray all asbestos debris with water and place it in a closed container which can be sealed for safe disposal.

10Dangers from used engine oils

Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. The oil also contains potentially harmful contaminants which may result in skin cancer.

Adequate means of skin protection and washing facilities should be readily available.

The following is a list of ‘Health Protection Precautions’, suggested to minimise the risk of contamination.

1 Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oils2 Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where applicable.3 Do not put oily rags into pockets.4 Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underwear, with oil.5 Overalls must be cleaned regularly. Discard unwashable clothing and oil impregnated footwear.6 First aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts and wounds.7 Apply barrier creams before each period of work to aid the removal of mineral oil from the skin.8 Wash with soap and hot water, or alternatively use a skin cleanser and a nail brush, to ensure that all oil is removed from the skin. Preparations containing lanolin will help replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.9 Do NOT use petrol, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or solvents for washing the skin.10 If a skin disorder appears, medical advice must be taken.11 Degrease components before handling if practicable.12 Where there is the possibility of a risk to the eyes, goggles or a face shield should be worn. An eye wash facility should be readily available.

Environmental protection

There is legislation to protect the environment from the incorrect disposal of used lubricating oil. To ensure that the environment is protected, consult your Local Authority who can give advice.

Viton seals

Some seals used in engines and in components fitted to engines are made from Viton.

Viton is used by many manufacturers and is a safe material under normal conditions of operation.

If Viton is burned, a product of this burnt material is an acid which is extremely dangerous. Never allow this burnt material to come into contact with the skin or with the eyes.

If it is necessary to come into contact with components which have been burnt, ensure that the precautions which follow are used:

Ensure that the components have cooled.Use Neoprene gloves and discard the gloves safely after use.Wash the area with a calcium hydroxide solution and then with clean water.Disposal of gloves and components which are contaminated, must be in accordance with local regulations.

If there is contamination of the skin or eyes, wash the affected area with a continuous supply of clean water or with a calcium hydroxide solution for 15-60 minutes. Obtain immediate medical attention.

10 Practical information

To clean components

It is important that the work area is kept clean and that the components are protected from dirt and other debris. Ensure that dirt does not contaminate the fuel system.

Before a component is removed from the engine, clean around the component and ensure that all openings, disconnected hoses and pipes are sealed.

Remove, clean and inspect each component carefully. If it is usable, put it in a clean dry place until needed. Ball and roller bearings must be cleaned thoroughly and inspected. If the bearings are usable, they must be flushed in low viscosity oil and protected with clean paper until needed.

Before the components are assembled, ensure that the area is as free from dust and dirt as possible. Inspect each component immediately before it is fitted, wash all pipes and ports and pass dry compressed air through them before connections are made.

Use suitable gloves for protection when components are degreased or cleaned with trichloroethylene, white spirit, etc. Degreasing solutions which are basically trichloroethane are not recommended.

Suitable fluids to clean and to protect components

Warning! Full information for the use of all the products listed below and for their safe disposal, and especially for the health and safety of the personnel who use them, will be found in the Manufacturer’s data.

Ardrox 667: Ardrox Limited, Brentford, Middlesex.

Maxan 774: Henkel Chemicals Limited,Edgeware Road, London.

These products are basically methylene chloride and are safe to use on most metals for the removal of carbon and to remove paint. They can damage rubber and most plastic materials.

Method of use

The components to be degreased must be lowered completely into the degreasing solution. Allow enough time to elapse for the components to be thoroughly cleaned. Subsequently, the components must be thoroughly flushed in clean water. In use, maintain a layer of water at least 76 mm (3 inches) deep above the cleaning fluid to ensure that vapour and toxic gases are not released.

Warning! Do NOT smoke near the container. Protection for the eyes and for the skin must be used always during the use of these fluids, and the container must be in a place with good ventilation.

Oil seals

Apply petroleum jelly to oil seals before they are fitted, and do not damage the lip of the seal on sharp edges. Unless other specifications apply, fit the seal with the edge of the lip toward the bearing.

Hose connections

Do not use a screwdriver to remove hoses by force because adaptors or pipe connections can be damaged. Cut through the hose and then cut the ends of the hose from the adaptor or pipe connection.

When a new hose is fitted, a suitable rubber lubricant can be used instead of antifreeze, water or french chalk. Never lubricate a hose with oil or grease.

Gaskets, joints and ‘O’ rings

Discard all used items if an engine or a component is dismantled and fit only new and correct parts.

If a jointing compound is needed, ‘Hylomar PL 32’ jointing compound is recommended for use, but on metal joints ONLY. Only a thin application is needed, an excessive quantity of compound can restrict the flow of fluids in pipes and passages.

Caution: ‘Hylomar’ jointing compound must NOT be used in contact with any fibre joints as the solvent contained in ‘Hylomar’ can damage the joint material.

Apply a small amount of a suitable lubricant to ‘O’ ring seals to prevent damage during assembly.

Th

10Locking devices

Split pins, locking plates and tab washers which have been used must be discarded. Stiffnuts can be used again only if they have not lost their grip and the original torque is needed to turn them.

There must be a minimum protrusion of one full thread of the bolt or stud through the stiffnut when it is tightened fully.

Discard all stiffnuts which have nylon or fibre inserts.

Application of thread locking compounds

Remove all oil, grease and dirt from engine parts before thread locking compounds are applied to them. Most thread locking compounds have a date by which they must be used. Do not use any compounds after their expiry date.

Fits and clearances

The dimensions given at the end of each section are acceptable limits. The components which have measurements within these limits are acceptable for a complete period of service.

Certain components which are worn by more than these limits can be corrected in accordance with a Service Reclamation Scheme (SRS). Information about the Service Reclamation Schemes is available from the Service Department at Perkins Engines Company Limited, Shrewsbury.

Special tools

Special tools are available for specific jobs and should be used, where recommended, to save time and prevent damage to parts. These tools are listed in section 25.

Applied torques

The specifications for applied torques, which are given in section 11, apply to certain bolts and nuts where damage or failure can occur if they are incorrectly tightened.

Where joints are fitted, for example, between the cylinder head and the crankcase, it is also important that bolts and nuts are tightened evenly and gradually, and in the correct sequence.

The torque wrenches listed below are suitable for the requirements of the engine and are available from Perkins Distributors.

Range Part number

8 to 54 Nm (6 to 40 lbf ft) 21825 846

30 to 150 Nm (20 to 110 lbf ft) 21825 991

70 to 310 Nm (50 to 230 lbf ft) 21825 992

Checks for cracks

When possible, it is recommended that components which are affected by high stresses, such as the crankshaft, the connecting rods, the gears and the cylinder liners, are tested for cracks during overhaul. They should also be checked for cracks when they have been affected by an excessive load or impact.

It is recommended that ferrous components are tested by the electro-magnetic method if possible. Portable electro-magnetic test equipment is available from Radalloyd Limited, Oadby, Leicester.

Non-ferrous components can be tested by the use of a dye penetrant process such as ‘Ardrox 996’, available from Ardrox Limited, Brentford, Middlesex. The dye penetrant must conform to one of the standards listed below:

MIL-STD 271-EMIL-L 25135B.S. 5750D.T.D. 929

Exchange units

It is recommended that unserviceable units are returned, as complete as the new exchange unit, with covers fitted to all openings and the joint faces protected. When necessary, protect the unit, both inside and outside, from corrosion.

Parts

To ensure maximum reliability, fit only genuine PERKINS parts supplied by the official distributor. These parts are made to the latest specification and have a guarantee for 12 months. The use of parts, such as filter elements, which do not conform to PERKINS standards, may reduce the life of the engine and can affect the warranty.

If you need parts, spares or information for your engine, give the complete engine number to the official distributor.

11 Recommended specific applied torques

Caution: The torque loads listed below apply to threads in an oil wet condition, unless the use of thread locking compound is recommended.

Application of a torque load specification is NOT enough to ensure that the relevant components are retained securely as an assembly. It is important to conform also to the recommendations for assembly and, if given, the sequence in which the bolts or nuts must be tightened. This information is given in the relevant section of this publication.

If a bolt or nut is retained with a locking washer, locking plate or split pin, the specification for a torque load can be exceeded, if necessary, by the MINIMUM amount that is needed for correct assembly.

12Tappet clearances

To check and to adjust 12-3

Check and adjust the tappet clearances in the sequence which follows. It is easier to perform this operation while the injectors are removed for servicing.

The tappet clearances are measured between the rocker levers and the tips of the valves (A).

Valves rocking means: inlet valve just opening and exhaust valve just closing.

1 Remove the rocker covers.2 Turn the crankshaft in the normal direction of rotation, anti-clockwise when viewed on the flywheel, until the inlet valves of number 6 cylinder are ‘rocking’.

12Procedure for retightening of thecylinder head bolts 12-5

Special tools:Torque angle gauge, 21825 924

Note: For engines from build line number 91880, this procedure is NOT necessary due to new procedures used when the engine is assembled.

The cylinder head bolts of engines built before build line number 91880 must be retightened after the first 12 months of operation. Additionally, if a cylinder head from one of these engines has been removed, its bolts and nut must be retightened to the correct torque figures and the tappet clearances checked after the first 500 to 1 000 km. Use the procedure which follows.

Caution: A drilled bolt, which is identified by the word "OIL" stamped on its head for early engines and by a recess in its head for later engines, is fitted at position 22 shown on the illustration (A). This special bolt MUST be used at the correct position.

1 Remove the rocker covers and the rocker assemblies.2 Wipe clean the nuts and the heads of the bolts which retain the cylinder heads.3 Make a temporary mark on each nut and on the head of each bolt, and also on the cylinder heads. Ensure that the marks are aligned.Caution: Do NOT remove or slacken more than one nut or bolt at a time.

4 Work on one bolt or nut at a time, use the sequence shown (A) and proceed as follows:All bolts and nuts:

a Remove the bolt or nut. Lubricate lightly the threads and the lower face of the bolt or the nut.

b Tighten the bolt or nut to 204 Nm (150 lbf ft). Continue in the correct sequence.

Bolts shown in black circles:

a Tighten these bolts in the correct sequence by a further 40° of angular movement or until the marks align, whichever is the tighter. A suitable torque angle gauge, 21825 924, is available.

5 Fit the rocker assemblies, tighten the bolts evenly and progressively to a torque of 41 Nm (30 lbf ft).

6 Check and, if necessary, adjust the tappet clearances, operation 12-3.7 Pour approximately 0,6 litre (1 pint) of clean engine lubricating oil over the rocker assemblies and fit the rocker covers, operation 12-2.

12 To dismantle and to assemble 12-6

Special tools:Cup plug removal tool, 21825 855Slide hammer, 21825 849Replacer kit for cup plugs, 21825 865Drive handle, 21825 861Valve spring compressor, 21825 739Adaptor, 21825 742Insertion tool, 21825 764

To dismantle

Check all cup plugs for signs of coolant leakage. Any plugs which are in doubt must be renewed. To remove suspect cup plugs use the cup plug removal tool, 21825 855 and slide hammer, 21825 849. To fit new cup plugs, use the replacer kit, 21825 865, and the drive handle, 21825 861. Apply Loctite 575 to new cup plugs before they are fitted to the cylinder head.

1 Clean the face of the cylinder head before removing the valves and check the depth of the valves below the flame face.2 Lay the cylinder head, flame face down, on a bench with a soft surface and remove the valves by use of the valve spring compressor, 21825 739, and adaptor, 21825 742. Fit the adaptor, 21825 742, into a suitable bolt hole. Fit the compressor tool stud into the adaptor, finger-tight, then tighten the lock-nut.Note: Only certain early engines are fitted with valve rotators (rotocoils) beneath the exhaust valve springs. All other engines have solid spring seats.

3 Compress the valve springs in turn (A) and remove the collets to release the springs. Lift off the springs together with upper and lower spring seats/rotocoils. Exhaust valve stem seals must be removed before the rotocoils can be removed. To remove a seal, lever it carefully from the guide and discard. It must NOT be refitted.Note: Valve rotators (rotocoils) cannot be fitted or removed while stem seals are in position.

4 Stand the cylinder head in a suitable position to remove the valves. Identify the valves to ensure that they are returned to their original positions. Do NOT use a centre punch or number stamps for marking the valves.

12 To clean and to inspect thecylinder head 12-7

Clean all of the components; use a cleaning fluid which can be diluted with water and refer to section 10 for relevant information. To remove heavy carbon deposits from most components: soak them in solutions of ‘Maxan’ or ‘Ardrox 667’.

Caution: Do not use the ‘Maxan’ or ‘Ardrox’ processes on the valve springs or the surface finish will be damaged.

If cup plugs were removed, before the cylinder head was cleaned, they must be renewed before the cylinder head is given a pressure test, see operation 12-6.

Make, locally, enough seals to close all of the openings for coolant and fit them to the cylinder head. Connect a pipe from a supply of air to the coolant galleries. Apply air at a pressure of 207 kN/m² (30 lbf/in²).

Caution: Do NOT exceed 207 kN/m² (30 lbf/in²) as damage may be caused.

Put the cylinder head in a tank of water which is at a temperature of 40-45°C (104-113°F) and inspect for bubbles from around all the cup plugs and injector sleeves. Renew plugs or sleeves which are not fully sealed. Remove the seals from the openings for coolant.

Inspect the flame face for signs of damage. If necessary, the face may be reconditioned by surface grinding, in four stages, to a maximum of 0,51 mm (0.020 in). Information about work done must be etched on an area of the flame face which is not under the gasket of the cylinder head.

Caution: When a cylinder head flame face has been machined, the valve seats must be recut to maintain the correct distance between the valve faces and the flame face of the cylinder head. See fits and clearances on page 43.

To renew a valve spring with thecylinder head installed 12-8

Special tools:Valve spring compressor, 21825 739Adaptor, 21825 742

If necessary, it is possible to renew a valve spring without removing the cylinder head. Proceed as follows:

1 Remove the relevant rocker cover, operation 12-1, and turn the engine in the normal direction of rotation until the inlet valve of the cylinder concerned just commences to open. The piston of that cylinder will then be at TDC position.2 Slacken the tappet screws of this cylinder, remove the rocker assembly and lift out the push rods.3 Cover the push rod holes to ensure that no components can drop in and fit the valve spring compressor, 21825 739, and adaptor, 21825 742, to an adjacent hole.4 Compress and remove the springs and other components in the manner described previously with the cylinder head removed.5 Renew items as necessary and fit the springs and other components. Remove the covers from the push rod holes.6 Fit the push rods and the rocker assembly. Check and reset the tappet clearances, operation 12-3, for all valves and fit the rocker cover, operation 12-1.

12To correct a valve seat 12-9

Special tools:Valve seat tool, 21825 841Replacement tips, 21825 842

It is recommended that all the valve guides are inspected, and renewed as necessary, before the work is begun on the valve seat inserts. Ensure that the bores of the guides are within the limits given at the end of this section.

1 Inspect the inserts for erosion and cracks. If it is necessary to correct the inserts, lightly lap the faces of the valve seats and their relevant valves. To correct the faces of more badly damaged valve seats, use the valve seat tool, 21825 841, together with the relevant pilot. To use the tool, fit the guide (A) and proceed as shown (B). Ensure that the cutter is correct for the angle of the valve seat, which is given on page 43. The surface finish of the valve seat will be improved if a compressed air supply is used to remove debris during this operation.Warning! Ensure that eye protection is used during the above operation.

Caution: During the correction of a valve seat it is important to remove only the minimum amount of material.

2 After the inspection and correction of a valve seat and the relevant valve, fit the valve into the guide and check the depth of the head of the valve below the flame face. If the depth is more than the limits given on page 43 use a new valve to check again. If the depth is then within acceptable limits, the new valve must be fitted to the valve seat when the cylinder head is assembled.3 To ensure that the valve is fitted in its correct position, the number of the cylinder and the position of the valve must be etched above the collet groove on the valve stem. Valves must not be stamped or marked with a centre punch, because cracks may occur.If the depth still exceeds the acceptable limits, a new valve seat insert must be fitted.

12 To remove a valve seat insert 12-10

1 Secure the cylinder head on a milling machine, and use a slot drill of approximately 10 mm (3/8 in) diameter to machine two slots into the valve seat insert (A3). The depth of the slots should be 0,50 mm (0.020 in) less than the depth of the valve seat insert. The minimum depth of the insert is 10,74 mm (0.423 in). The slots should be apart by approximately 13 mm (1/2 in) between their centres. Machine the slot to within 0,5 mm (0.020 in) of the outside diameter of the insert.Caution: It is essential that the depth of the cutter is carefully set to prevent cutting through the insert and into the head. A safety margin of at least 0,5 mm (0.020 in) should be allowed.

2 Use a flat chisel, at the point which is indicated by the arrow (A2) and in the direction of the opening in the insert, to break the insert. Do not damage the recess during this operation.3 Remove the insert and check that the recess is clean and that there is no damage. Ensure that any broken pieces from the old insert are removed from the port.

To fit a valve seat insert 12-11

Special tools:Valve seat insertion tool, 21825 869

To fit

1 Replacement inserts are available in either standard or 0,050 mm (0.002 in) oversize diameters. Always check that you have the required size.2 Ensure that the counter bores in the cylinder head are clean. The insert should be frozen in liquid nitrogen immediately before insertion.3 Fit the insert immediately, using the special tool 21825 869.4 Check, using a 0,04 mm (0.0015 in) feeler gauge, that the insert is fully seated.

12To inspect the valve guides 12-12

Check the clearance of each valve stem in its guide. This must be within the limits given on page 44. If the clearance is excessive, use a new valve to check again. If the clearance is still excessive, a new valve guide must be fitted.

To renew a valve guide 12-13

Special tools:Valve guide remover, 21825 752Valve guide replacer, 21825 763Reamer for valve guides, 21825 748Valve seat tool, 21825 841Replacement tips, 21825 842

1 Working from the flame face side of the cylinder head drive out the guide using drift, 21825 752.2 Ensure that the new guide is clean and free from burrs. Freeze the guide in liquid nitrogen, if available, or alternatively coat it with graphited machine oil.3 Exhaust guides must be entered with the end machined for the valve stem seal leading. Inlet guides are symmetrical and may be entered either way.4 Press fit the new guide (A1) using the replacer tool, 21825 763 (A2), and a hand press. Stop when the tool just contacts the cylinder head flame face.5 Use the reamer, 21825 748, by hand, to finish the guide bore (B).6 Recut the valve seat to the relevant angle. See operation 12-9.

To remove and to fit 12-14

To remove

1 Remove the cylinder heads, operation 12-4.2 Remove the valves, the valve springs and the valve rotators, operation 12-6.

To fit

1 Fit the valves, the valve springs and the valve rotators, operation 12-6.2 Fit the cylinder heads, operation 12-4.

To clean and to inspect 12-15

Special tools:Gauge, 21825 754

1 Clean the valves thoroughly and inspect the head of each valve for cracks or other damage. Check the valve stems, the collet grooves and the tips of the valves for wear. On valves which appear serviceable, test, for cracks using a dye penetrant process such as ‘Ardrox 996’. See page 16.2 Check that the valves are not dished by use of a straight edge and a feeler gauge. Discard the valve if the clearance exceeds 0,38 mm (0.015 in).3 Pitted or damaged valve seat faces may be reclaimed by removing the minimum amount of material necessary at the correct angle.4 Check both inlet and exhaust valves with gauge, 21825 754 (A1), and a straight edge, to determine if a sufficient amount of material remains. Discard any valve if the head is below the top face of the gauge.5 If new valves are fitted, the cylinder number and position should be etched near to the top of the valve stem. Valves must not be stamped or marked with a centre punch as this may initiate cracking within the valve.6 Certain early engines have valve rotators (rotocoils) fitted beneath the exhaust valve springs. All other engines have solid spring seats. If valve rotators are fitted, check for cracks and other damage and ensure that the parts rotate freely in relationship to their relevant parts.

7 Inspect the tips of the valve stems. If the wear marks indicate that the valve has not rotated, the rotator for that valve must be renewed.8 Two springs are fitted over each valve. For ease of identification the exhaust valve springs are colour coded yellow and the inlet valve springs are colour coded red. Clean thoroughly the valve springs and check for wear, corrosion and distortion. Measure the ‘free length’ and the ‘length under load’ of each spring and compare the results with the figures given in fits and clearances on page 44. Discard any spring which is not acceptable.

To remove

1 Remove the high-pressure fuel pipes: For new 2000 series engines remove the set of high-pressure fuel pipes. For these engines, do not remove the pipes individually, they MUST be removed as a complete set. Do NOT bend the pipes.Warning! If a high-pressure fuel pipe becomes bent, its structure will be damaged and it may become split during use.

2 Remove the relevant low pressure fuel pipes and remove the injector assembly. To remove a tight fuel injector use the special tool, 21825 914, as follows: place the cylindrical portion of the tool (A1) over the fuel injector to be removed. Unscrew the nut (A2). Rotate the central part of the tool (A3) until the thread fully engages with the thread on the injector. Turn the hexagon nut (A2) with a suitable spanner; this action will lift the injector from its sleeve, without damaging the sleeve. Other, harsher methods, may damage the sleeve or the cylinder head.3 Place the injector sleeve removal tool, 21825 908, in the slots in the top of the sleeve, unscrew in an anti-clockwise direction and withdraw the sleeve. If the sleeve is a tight fit, use the special tool, 21825 922, to extract it.4 Remove and discard the rubber seal from the cylinder head and the copper washer from inside the sleeve.

Piston and connecting rod assembly 13

General description

Pistons

1 The pistons (A) are cast in a low expansion type aluminium alloy with an inserted cast iron top ring groove (A1). The piston crown (B) is machined to form two valve recesses (B1) and an open combustion chamber (B2).Three rings are fitted to each piston above the gudgeon pin.

Part of the combustion chamber and piston crown are ‘hard anodised’ to thermally insulate the edge of the combustion chamber, except for the pistons of certain industrial engines which are squeeze-cast and have a ceramic fibre crown.

A range of service undersize pistons is available for engines where the crankcase top face has been machined.

The fully floating gudgeon pin is retained by two circlips and is offset from the vertical centre line of the piston. Piston crowns are stamped ‘FRONT’ and show compression ratio and height grading.

Compression ratio:TAG1, 2, 3 and TWG 15.9:1TTAG 15:12006-12TA1, 2 and 3 17.8:1

Compression height: 98,81 to 98,93 mm(3.890 to 3.895 in)

Clearance from crankcase top face to piston crown at TDC (Top dead centre) - Minus 0,28 to 0,38 mm (0.011 to 0.015 in).

Maximum limit for piston crown machining 0,127 mm (0.005 in).

The correct pistons and rings, as given in the Perkins Parts Book, must always be fitted.

13 Piston rings

Top ring (A1)

Molyplus inlaid face, 15 degree wedge design, fitted either side up.

Second ring (A2)

Chrome plated on face with chamfered top inner edge, marked ‘TOP’ for fitting.

Third ring (A3)

Spring backed oil control ring, chrome plated on rails and may be fitted either way up.

Connecting rods

The rods are steel forgings machined to size and drilled longitudinally to allow pressure lubrication of the small end bearings.

Early engines have two bushes fitted in the small end with an oilway gap between them (B). Subsequent engines have a single bush fitted in a wedge type rod (C).

Each rod and its cap are stamped with correlation marks (B1) on all factory built engines. The rod and cap are secured together with two fitted bolts and nuts. The big end will pass through the bore of the cylinder liner and no locking device is fitted.

During manufacture, all connecting rods are weighed and classified in groups of 113 grams (4 oz) which are identified by a letter and number stamped on each individual rod (B2). If an order is placed for a replacement connecting rod it must state the weight group ‘letter’ of the rod required.

13Piston and connecting rod assembly

To remove and to fit 13-1

Special tools:Piston ring sleeve, 21825 784 Dial gauge, 21825 782

To remove

1 Drain the coolant and lubricating oil.2 Remove the cylinder head, operation 12-4.3 Remove the sump, operation 19-3.4 Remove the piston cooling jet (A) from the bottom of the relevant cylinder.Cooling jets for earlier engines are similar in principle but differ in design.

5 Unscrew the big end nuts and remove the big end cap bearing and bolts.6 Push the piston and connecting rod carefully out through the top of the bore.7 The rod and piston must be kept together with all the related parts as an assembly for the relevant cylinder.

To fit

1 Check that the piston and connecting rod are correctly assembled and that the piston and cylinder bore are clean.2 Turn the crankshaft until the crank pin, relevant to the bore in which the piston is to be fitted, is at its lowest position. Clean the crank pin and lubricate with clean engine oil.3 Fit the upper half of the big end bearing to the connecting rod, ensuring that the location tang is correctly seated. Lubricate the bearing with clean engine oil.4 Ensure that the piston cooling jet is removed from the bottom of the bore.5 Use the sleeve, 21825 784 (B1), to fit the assembly into the bore with the ‘FRONT’ marking on the piston crown toward the front of the engine. Guide the rod down carefully onto the crank pin. Fit the lower half of the bearing into the big end cap, ensuring correct location, and lubricate with clean engine oil.

13 6 Ensure that the flats on the big end bolts are correctly located against the flats on the connecting rod. Fit the bearing cap with the correlation marks aligned and tighten the lightly oiled nuts to a torque of 217 Nm (160 lbf ft).7 Turn the crankshaft until the piston is at TDC and measure the clearance of the piston crown below the top face of the crankcase. A dial gauge, 21825 782 (A), is obtainable for this operation. Permissible clearance is 0,28 to 0,38 mm (0.011 to 0.015 in). If necessary, it is permissible to machine up to a maximum of 0,127 mm (0.005 in) from the piston crown. Restore the ‘FRONT’ and other markings if they are removed during machining. Dial gauge must be zeroed on a flat clean surface before use.8 Fit the piston cooling jet, complete with new ‘O’ ring seal. If necessary, turn the engine to ensure that the jet pipe is positioned centrally in the slot in the piston skirt.9 Fit the sump, operation 19-3.10 Fit the cylinder heads, operation 12-4.11 Fill the coolant system to the correct level with the approved coolant mixture.12 Fill the sump to the correct level with the correct grade of lubricating oil.Refer to the User’s Handbook, TSD 3215, for the correct procedures before the engine is first started after an overhaul.

13To dismantle and to assemble 13-2

Special tools:Piston ring pliers, 21825 793

To dismantle

1 Use piston ring pliers, 21825 793, to remove the rings from the piston.2 Make a note of the relationship between the ‘FRONT’ marking on the piston and the correlation marks on the connecting rod.3 Remove the gudgeon pin circlips and push out the pin sufficiently to release the piston from the connecting rod. Keep each assembly together.

To assemble

1 Fit the rings to the piston ensuring that the non-reversible rings are fitted correctly.2 Heat the piston to approximately 20°C (68°F). Oil the small end bushes and assemble the rod to the piston with the ‘FRONT’ marking on the piston crown in correct relationship to the correlation marks. Ensure that the gudgeon pin circlips are correctly located in their grooves.3 Set the gaps of the piston rings at equidistant intervals as shown (A) before the assembly is fitted to the engine.

13 Piston and rings

To inspect 13-3

1 De-carbonise the piston by soaking in a proprietary solvent such as ‘Ardrox 691’.2 Check the piston for damage or wear. Use a new piston ring as a guide when checking for wear in the ring grooves.3 Crack test the gudgeon pin and check for a push fit in the piston at 20°C (68°F). If the pin is slack in the piston the assembly should be discarded.4 Check the piston rings for damage, scores, wear, and signs of leakage. Discard the top ring if the molybdenum shows signs of wear or breaking up, if necessary, comparing it with a new ring.5 The spring in the oil control ring gives a radial pressure of 1035 kN/m² (150 lb/in²) when new and is identified by a yellow paint marking. Inspect the ring for wear, and if found to be defective, the ring and spring together must be renewed.6 Place the rings in turn in an unworn portion of their own liner to check the ring gaps. Discard any ring which has a gap exceeding the limits. Piston rings must be renewed when fitting a new cylinder liner.

Connecting rod

To inspect 13-4

1 Crack test the rod assembly electromagnetically and inspect the bolts for signs of wear or damage. Renew any components found to be defective.2 Check the small end bushes and renew as necessary, operation 13-5.3 Check the alignment of the big and small end bores in two planes. Do NOT attempt to correct a bent or twisted rod.4 Carefully inspect the bearings for cracks, scores, wear and embedded foreign material. If there is any doubt regarding their serviceability the bearings should be renewed. Always ensure that replacement bearings are of the correct size and type.

Special tools:Con-rod bush remover/replacer, 21825 814For use only on early engines.

Early engines

1 Press out the unserviceable bushes. Remove any burrs from the eye of the connecting rod and ensure that the oilway is clear.2 New bushes should be drawn in one from each side. A tool, 21825 814 (A), is available for this purpose. Ensure that the bushes are correctly fitted with a space between them of at least 2,5 mm (0.10 in) to form an oilway.

New engines - engines fitted with wedge-type connecting rods

1 Press out the unserviceable single small end bush. Remove any burrs from the eye of the connecting rod and ensure that the oilway is clear.2 Press a new bush into the connecting rod, ensuring that the oil hole is correctly aligned with the hole in the rod.Caution: The oil hole in the new bush must be aligned with the oil hole in the connecting rod to within ±1°.

3 Cut off the protruding edges of the bush and dress up with a smooth file until flush with the side faces of the rod.4 Secure the connecting rod in a boring machine and bore the bush to the correct diameter:50,813 to 50,838 mm (2.0005 to 2.0015 in).

Remove any burrs.

Crankshaft assembly 14

General description

The crankshaft is forged from chrome-molybdenum steel. It is dynamically balanced, and all bearing surfaces are nitride-hardened and lapped to size. The rear flange is machined to form a spigot location for the flywheel and is drilled to accept the flywheel bolts.

Drillings in the crankshaft permit oil transfer to the seven main bearings.

A drilling from each journal conveys oil to an adjacent crankpin, which incorporates an oil reservoir with a detachable plug. This plug is fitted with an ‘O’ ring and is secured by a spring clip.

Crankshafts fitted after July 1995, have a new arrangement of oil passageways which removes the need for oil reservoirs. These new crankshafts are therefore not fitted with oil reservoir plugs.

If, during overhaul, the oil reservoir plugs are removed from the earlier crankshaft, the plugs MUST be refitted before the engine is run.

Crankshaft end float is controlled by steel-backed lead bronze thrust washers, fitted either side of the centre main bearing. The lower half of the washer has a tang which locates in a slot machined in the bearing cap.

The nose of the crankshaft carries the oil pump drive gear and the main pinion, and is splined to receive the hub to which the damper and pulley are attached.

The main crankshaft oil seals are of lip type design. The rear oil seal is fitted directly into the flywheel housing and forms a seal around the rear flange of the crankshaft. For earlier engines the oil seal is carried in a housing which is bolted to the rear of the crankcase. The front oil seal is fitted in the wheelcase and forms a seal around the crankshaft hub. Both seals are supplied with a plastic insert for fitting purposes.

Wheelcase and drive assembly 15

General description

The wheelcase assembly of the new 2000 series engine consists of an aluminium wheelcase and a cast iron backplate. For earlier engines, the backplate is manufactured from aluminium. The assembly is situated at the front end of the crankcase and houses the engine gear train. The backplate is located on the crankcase by dowels and is secured by close fitting bolts. This ensures the correct positioning of the front seal in relation to the crankshaft.

A steel oil transfer tube is fitted between the backplate and the front end of the main oil gallery in the crankcase. Lubricating oil is supplied through this tube and through drillings in the backplate to the fuel injection pump.

The wheelcase provides mounting points for the coolant pump, alternator and belt tensioner bracket. The backplate houses the radiator by-pass tube and provides mounting points for the compressor and fuel injection pump.

The gears of new 2000 series engines have a different gear tooth design and are not interchangeable with those fitted to earlier engines.

The idler axle fitted to new 2000 engines does not require adjustment.

15 Idler gear

To remove and to fit 15-6

To remove

1 Remove the wheelcase, operation 15-1.2 Turn the engine until No.1 piston is at TDC with the relevant mark on the flywheel aligned with the timing pointer in the flywheel housing. The timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft gears (A3 and A2) should now be facing the axle of the idler gear (A1), and the mark on the front end of the crankshaft at the 12 o’clock position.3 Check and note the end float of the idler gear.4 Check the gear for excessive play on the axle.5 Remove the securing bolt and thrust plate.6 Withdraw the gear and check for worn or damaged teeth.7 Do not turn the engine from its present position.

To fit

1 Slide the gear onto the axle, with the timing marks aligned with the relevant markings on the camshaft and crankshaft gears.2 For new 2000 series engines: Fit the idler gear thrust plate and securing bolt. Tighten the bolt to a torque of 300 Nm (220 lbf ft). Check that the end float is within these limits: 0,10 to 0,25 mm (0.004 to 0.010 in). If it is outside the limits, the assembly of the idler gear and bushes must be renewed.For earlier 2000 series engines, fit the idler gear thrust plate and securing bolt. Ensure that the slot in the plate is correctly located on the roll pin before tightening the bolt. Tighten the bolt to a torque of 61 Nm (45 lbf ft). Check that the end float is within these limits: 0,051 to 0,20 mm (0.002 to 0.008 in). If it is outside the limits, the assembly of the idler gear and bushes must be renewed.

3 Check the backlash of the idler gear, see Fits and clearances on page 77. If a new gear has been fitted, the position of the idler gear axle may require adjustment to obtain the correct backlash dimensions. Refer to page 76. This operation does NOT apply to new 2000 series engines.4 Fit the wheelcase,operation 15-1.

15To set the gear backlash 15-7

Special tools:Reaming jig, idler gear axle, 21825 999

Note: This operation is NOT applicable to New 2000 series engines.

The backlash of the timing gears is set by the position of the idler gear axle. If, during an overhaul, a new idler gear, a new idler gear axle or a new crankcase is used, the correct position for the idler gear can change and effect the backlash setting of the gears.

To obtain the position that will give the correct backlash settings for the idler gear, the position of the dowel holes may have to change. To do this, the dowel holes must be reamed to a larger size by 0,38 mm (0.015 in), this will give them a diameter of 8,33 mm (0.328 in). If this operation has been done before, they may have to be reamed by a further 0,38 mm (0.015 in) to a finished size of 8,73 mm (0.3437 in).

According to the size of the dowels which are to be fitted, a selection of these location pins and reamers will be necessary:

Dowel size 8,33mm (0.32in) oversizeDowel part number: OE51709/1Location pin: 21825 830Reamer: 21825 833Location pin: 21825 831

15 To adjust the backlash of the timing gears

If the crankcase is to have its original idler gear and idler gear axle fitted, they should be fitted with the original dowels and then the backlash must be checked. The backlash limits are:

Between the idler gear and the drive gear for the fuel injection pump (FIP):

0,05 to 0,15 mm (0.002 to 0.006 in).Between the idler gear and the camshaft gear:

0,05 to 0,15 mm (0.002 to 0.006 in).Between the idler gear and the crankshaft gear:

0,15 to 0,40 mm (0.006 to 0.010 in).

If these clearances cannot be obtained, use the procedure which follows:

1 The camshaft gear and the crankshaft gear must be fitted and the FIP drive gear must be fitted, but without its bolts at this time.2 Fit the idler gear axle (A1) without the dowels, fit spring washers to the bolts and tighten the bolts lightly.3 Fit the gear and check the backlash at four equally spaced points on its circumference between the gears of the camshaft and the crankshaft.4 Adjust the position of the idler gear axle to achieve a backlash of 0,05 to 0,15 mm (0.002 to 0.006 in) between the idler gear and the camshaft gear and also between the idler gear and the FIP drive gear. And ensure that the backlash between the idler gear and the crankshaft gear is between 0,15 and 0,25 mm (0.006 and 0.010 in).5 Remove carefully the idler gear, ensure that the idler gear axle is not disturbed; tighten the bolts of the idler gear axle to a torque of 61 Nm (45 lbf ft).Caution: Ensure that the correct tools are used for the size of dowels to be fitted.

6 Fit the reaming jig, 21825 999, over the idler gear axle, fit the relevant location pin into one of the dowel holes (A2) and use the relevant reamer in the other dowel hole to ream the other hole in the crankcase to the next relevant size.7 Fit the relevant locating pin to the dowel hole and remove the other locating pin. Ream the second dowel hole with the same reamer.8 Remove the locating pin and the reaming jig. Ensure that the dowel holes are clean. Fit new dowels of the correct size.9 Use a centre punch to distort the dowel holes similar to that shown (A3).10 Fit the idler gear, operation 15-6.

Cylinder block assembly 16

General description

The crankcase is a single unit cast in high grade nickel-chrome iron and comprises the crank chamber and the cylinder block. The crank chamber extends below the crankshaft line to ensure rigidity. Lateral bolts to the front, centre and rear main bearing caps provide additional stiffness.

Five transverse webs within the crankcase provide support for the crankshaft and camshaft. The crankshaft is carried in seven bearings, secured by removable caps and fitted with thrust washers at the centre bearing.

The camshaft has seven journals. On all engines prior to build line number 79339 the camshaft runs in bearing surfaces machined in the crankcase parent metal. Industrial engines, from build line number 79339, have a bush fitted to the front journal with the six remaining journals running in bearing surfaces machined in the crankcase parent metal.

The low-mounted camshaft is gear driven from the front of the crankshaft through an idler gear. It is drilled through its complete length to form an oil gallery and runs in bearings or bearing surfaces machined in the crankcase.

Oil is transferred from the centre bearing to lubricate the remaining six camshaft journals and certain other components.

The drive gear is located on the shaft by a single dowel and retained by five setbolts/capscrews and a locking plate. For certain early engines, the drive gear is pressed onto the camshaft and is located by a woodruff key.

Slip-fit wet-type cylinder liners manufactured from cast iron and which have been induction hardened are used. The liner bore is honed and carbide finished, which results in a matt surface.

Caution: If a used liner is to be refitted to an engine, it is vital that NO re-honing or de-glazing of the bore is undertaken.

The top of the liner is flanged and forms a coolant seal with the counterbore seat in the crankcase top face. Three grooves are machined into the skirt of the liner to accept three composition sealing rings.

16 When a new liner is fitted and the protrusion check is satisfactory, etch its position number on the top face (A2) of the liner adjacent to the large coolant port. Do NOT mark the flange face (A1).

9 When the protrusion check for the cylinder liners is satisfactory, remove the liners and ensure that the seats are clean and have been degreased.10 Fit the cylinder liners, operation 16-4.11 Rotate the build stand until the engine is almost horizontal. Assemble the pistons and connecting rods as detailed in section 13 and clean the bores of the cylinder liners. Before each piston assembly is fitted, turn the crankshaft until the appropriate journal is at its lowest position. Clean the journal and lubricate with clean engine oil.12 Fit the upper half of the big end bearing to the connecting rod, ensuring that the location tang is correctly fitted. Lubricate the bearing with clean engine oil. Enter the piston/connecting rod assembly through the compression sleeve tool, 21825 784, into the bore with the ‘FRONT’ marking on the piston crown to the front of the engine. Guide the rod carefully onto the crank pin.13 Fit the lower half of the bearing into the big end cap ensuring correct location, and lubricate with clean engine oil. Fit the bearing cap with the correlation marks aligned, ensure that the big end bolts are correctly seated and tighten the lightly oiled nuts to a torque of 217 Nm (160 lbf ft). Repeat the procedure for the remaining five assemblies.14 Fit the six piston cooling jets, complete with new ‘O’ ring seals, secure each with a bolt and spring washer.15 Rotate the build stand until the engine is upright. Turn the crankshaft until the piston is at TDC (top dead centre) and measure the clearance of the piston crown below the crankcase top face. A dial gauge, 21825 782, is obtainable for this purpose. Permissible clearance is 0,28 to 0,38 mm (0.011 to 0.015 in). If necessary, it is permissible to machine up to a maximum of 0,127 mm (0.005 in) from the piston crown. Perform the check on all pistons. Restore the ‘FRONT’ and other markings if they are removed during machining.16 Fit the two rocker gear oil feed studs and the blanking plug, complete with new sealing washer, to the crankcase top face. Ensure that the feed stud oilways are clear before fitting.

Where relevant, fit a washer to each bolt.Note: Recent engines use a different type of bolt which MUST be fitted without a washer.

25 Screw the bolts in by hand to ensure the correct location. Always place the bolts in position, do NOT drop them. Lightly oil the threads on the oilway stud and fit the nut and washer. Later engines have a special bolt (A22) fitted in place of the stud and nut.Caution: The special bolt (at position A22) is drilled and can be identified by the word ‘OIL’ stamped on its head or, for later engines, a recess in its head. The old and new types of drilled bolt are interchangeable.

26 Align the heads by temporarily fitting the inlet manifold without the gasket and, using the sequence shown (A), tighten the bolts (and nut where relevant) of each cylinder head as follows:

a Tighten all bolts in the sequence shown (A) to a torque of 136 Nm (100 lbf ft).

b Tighten all bolts in the sequence shown (A) to a torque of 204 Nm (150 lbf ft).

c Tighten ONLY the bolts in the black circles, in the sequence shown (A), by an additional angle of 40 degrees. A torque angle gauge, 21825 924, is available for this purpose.

Remove the inlet manifold.

Caution: Except for new 2000 series engines, the bolts and nuts of a newly fitted cylinder head must be re-tightened to their final torque figures, and the tappet clearances checked, after the first 500 to 1000 km.

27 Lightly oil the cam followers and fit them to their relevant positions in the crankcase. Fit the rocker oil feed pipe and secure with three bolts and shouldered washers. Fit the gasket, baffle plate, gasket and the tappet cover and secure the engine breather pipe to the tappet cover. If the engine is fitted with an oil distribution block it should now be refitted complete with plugs and adaptors as appropriate.

Turn the crankshaft anticlockwise, viewed from the flywheel end, and adjust the tappet clearances in the sequence which follows. ‘Valves rocking’ means ‘inlet valve just opening, exhaust valve just closing’.

Adjust the valve tappet clearances, as shown (A), to these dimensions:

Inlet valves: 0,25 mm (0.010 in).

Exhaust valves: 0,50 mm (0.020 in).

29 Re-check each clearance after tightening the lock nut of the adjusting screw to 40 Nm (30 lbf ft). Do not fit the rocker covers permanently until the injection pump timing procedure has been done. Pour oil over the rocker and valve assemblies and fit the rocker covers.30 Fit the air inlet manifold/charge cooler assembly, use new gaskets at the joint face. Fit the coolant pipe between the charge cooler and the rear end of the crankcase.31 Fit the rear oil seal housing and oil seal to the crankcase rear face.Note: A rear oil seal housing is not fitted to new 2000 series engines.

Rotate the build stand until the sump mounting face is uppermost.

32 Fit the oil pump dowels and, where necessary, the original shims, and fit the oil pump complete with drive gear, to the bearing cap.Check the drive gear backlash at four equidistant points on the gear. With the engine upright in the normal running position, the backlash should be 0,10 to 0,25 mm (0.004 to 0.010 in). Adjust if necessary by varying the shim thickness between the pump and the bearing cap. Shims are supplied in thicknesses of 0,2 and 0,3 mm (0.008 and 0.012 in).

Carefully fit the sump, remove the guide studs and fit the bolts, complete with plain and spring washers.Caution: When tightening bolts on rear pannier sumps the four bolts immediately to the front of the pannier (two each side, near the centre of the sump), must be tightened last to a torque of 28 Nm (21 lbf ft).

36 With the crankcase in the upright position, fit the flywheel housing as follows:For new 2000 series engines, the crankshaft rear oil seal is fitted directly in the flywheel housing and the joint between the flywheel housing and the crankcase must be sealed by the use of a special sealant, ‘Loctite gasket eliminator 518’. Ensure that the faces of the flywheel housing and crankcase are clean and dry. Apply a continuous bead of ‘Loctite gasket eliminator 518’ to the cylinder block as shown (A1).

For earlier engines, which have a separate housing for the crankshaft rear oil seal, the flywheel housing is fitted directly onto the crankcase. No gasket is required and sealant must NOT be applied.

Lift the housing onto the locating dowels and fit the retaining bolts and washers. Tighten the bolts evenly to a torque of 61 Nm (45 lbf ft).

37 Fit the flywheel guide studs, 21825 802, to the crankshaft, position the flywheel using lifting bracket, 21825 817, ensure that it is correctly located over the dowel and fit the retaining bolts. Remove the guide studs, fit the remaining bolts and tighten all bolts to a torque of 122 Nm (90 lbf ft).38 Fit and secure the starter motor assembly.39 Fit the rear cone, the crankshaft hub, the front cone and the crankshaft nut, ensure that the oil seal lips are properly positioned on the hub. If an adequate torque wrench and reduction unit is available, tighten the crankshaft nut to a torque of 949 Nm (700 lbf ft). If not, tighten the nut hand-tight then a further two flats using spanner 21825 807. To ensure alignment of the nut locking plate the nut may be tightened further but must NOT be slackened.

16Cylinder liners

To remove and to fit 16-4

Special tools:Remover/replacer tool, 21825 790Cylinder liner clamp, 21825 844

To remove

1 Drain cooling and engine lubrication systems.2 Remove the cylinder head/s, operation 12-4.3 Remove the sump, operation 19-3, and remove the pistons, operation 13-1.4 Turn the engine to a vertical position with the flame face uppermost.5 Extract the cylinder liners using the special tool, 21825 790. Remove and discard the sealing rings.6 Inspect the cylinder liners, operation 16-5.Caution: Ensure that the cylinder liners are not damaged while they are out of the crankcase.

To fit

Before each cylinder liner is fitted, it is recommended that ‘Loctite Ultra Copper Sealant’ (Loctite 5920) is applied to the crankcase (A1) around the seats for the cylinder liner flanges. ‘Linalube’ must be applied to the sealing ring area at the lower end of the cylinder bore.

Ensure that the cylinder liner seats are clean and have been degreased.

1 Apply a thin smear of ‘Linalube’ to the sealing ring area at the base of each cylinder bore. Ensure a 100% covering of that area. Repeat the procedure for each cylinder.2 Apply ‘Loctite 5920’ as a bead of 2-3 mm (1/8 in) diameter (A2). Ensure that the sealant is applied evenly around the whole circumference. Do NOT apply too much sealant. Repeat the procedure for each cylinder.Warning! ‘Loctite Ultra Copper Sealant’ starts to harden after 30 minutes.

3 Apply a light smear of ‘Linalube’ to the sealing rings and fit them to the liner as shown (B). Ensure that the white marks on the sealing rings are on the outside and face towards the liner flange.Caution: An excessive quantity of ‘Linalube’ may cause hydraulic locking during fitting of the liner.

16 4 Liners may be pressed in by hand. If difficulties are encountered it is advisable to withdraw the liner and check that the rings are correctly fitted and that an excessive amount of ‘Linalube’ has not been applied. As each cylinder liner is fitted, fit a cylinder liner clamp, 21825 844, to retain it securely.Do NOT use mineral oil on the crankcase and sealing rings if ‘Linalube’ is not available. Tight liners may be pressed in using the remover/replacer tool, 21825 790 (A).

5 After the cylinder liners have been fitted, check the bores (B) for ovality and taper. The maximum acceptable limit for both taper and ovality is 0,05 mm (0.002 in). The lower bore dimension should not be less than 130,14 mm (5.124 in).6 Remove the clamps and fit the pistons, operation 13-1.7 Fit the cylinder heads, operation 12-4.8 Fit and the sump, operation 19-3. Fill the coolant and lubrication systems to the correct levels.

To clean and to inspect 16-5

Ensure that the seals have been removed. Soak the liners in a carbon solvent, such as Ardrox 667 or Maxan 776. See Warnings and instructions on how to use these solvents on page 16.

Check for cracks in each cylinder liner by use of the electro-magnetic method if possible. Inspect the top flange for fretting and the coolant areas for erosion and pitting. Special attention should be given to the area of the sealing ring grooves. Unserviceable cylinder liners must be renewed.

Silicon carbide liners are fitted and they MUST NOT BE RE-HONED.

Cylinder liners with a thicker flange are available to enable correct liner protrusion to be established after restoration work. These liners are identified by a groove machined around the top flange. Cylinder liners with thicker flanges are available in two sizes: +0,05 mm (+0.002 in) and +0,127 mm (+0.005 in).

When a new liner is fitted, etch its cylinder position number on the liner top face on satisfactory completion of the protrusion check given on page 83.

Valve timing

To check 17-1

Caution: This operation requires a high degree of accuracy to avoid a false reading.

1 Remove the timing pointer cover from the flywheel housing.2 Remove the rocker covers and joints.3 Turn the engine forward (clockwise viewed from the front) until the valves of No. 6 cylinder are ‘rocking’ (i.e., inlet valve just opening and exhaust valve just closing).4 Adjust the clearance of the No. 1 cylinder inlet valve to 0,89 mm (0.035 in).5 Continue turning the engine forward until a 0,13 mm (0.005 in) feeler gauge is just nipped between the No. 1 inlet valve rocker arm and its valve stem. The inlet valve opening mark ‘V1’ on the flywheel should now be aligned with the flywheel housing timing pointer.6 If satisfactory, return the engine to the No. 6 cylinder valves ‘rocking’ position. If not, check the timing gear marks (A).On completion, proceed as follows:

1 Reset No. 1 cylinder inlet valve clearance to 0,25 mm (0.010 in) and fit the timing pointer cover.2 Remove the joints from the rocker covers and clean the corresponding faces of the covers and cylinder head. Fit new joints to the rocker covers, ensuring that they are correctly located within the slots in each cover, and fit the covers.

Aspiration system 18

General description

The induction system of the engine is supplied with air under pressure by means of a turbocharger driven by the energy of the waste exhaust gases. The part number of the turbocharger can be found on the turbocharger data plate. Early engines are fitted with one of these: OE49342, OE51140 or OE51430. New 2000 series engines are fitted with OE52534 or OE52535. TTAG engines are fitted with two turbochargers: OE50642 and OE50674. Turbochargers OE51430 and OE52535 are each fitted with a waste-gate.

The exhaust manifolds direct the exhaust gases to the turbine wheel of the turbocharger rotor, causing the rotor to spin. The turbocharger compressor impeller, which forms part of the rotor assembly, draws air in through the air cleaner and delivers it to the induction manifold, under pressure, to be distributed to each cylinder as the inlet valves open. A waste-gate, fitted to certain turbochargers, monitors the boost delivery pressure in the turbocharger compressor and, once this reaches a pre-set figure, opens and allows the excess pressure to escape.

TWG engines are fitted with an air-to-coolant charge cooler, interposed between the turbocharger and the induction manifold. This serves to lower the temperature of the compressed induction charge before it passes into the engine. The charge cooler is supplied by coolant from the engine. The coolant flows through a matrix of tubes within the charge cooler before recirculating through the engine coolant system.

All TA, TAG, and TTAG engines are fitted with an air-to-air charge cooler, an intercooler. It is mounted at the front face of the coolant radiator. The turbocharger compressor directs air through the intercooler before it passes through large bore pipework into the induction manifold.

Aspiration system maintenance

The following points should receive particular attention:

1 Service the air cleaner in accordance with the Perkins recommendations given in section 4 of the User’s Handbook, TSD3215, or in the equipment manufacturer’s manual.2 At frequent intervals inspect the induction and exhaust systems for leakage and deterioration of hose connections. If the systems are disturbed they must be reassembled carefully to ensure perfect joints and to prevent cracking of manifolds due to uneven tightening.3 During servicing, take special care to prevent dirt and loose articles from entering the induction and exhaust systems where they could damage the compressor or turbine wheels of the turbocharger.4 The exhaust manifolds are made from a special alloy to protect the turbocharger turbine wheel from damage by loosened scale. Manifold components designed for non-turbocharged engines are not suitable for use in conjunction with a turbocharger.5 At frequent intervals check that the turbocharger oil feed and drain pipes are undamaged. Restriction of oil flow may result in turbocharger bearing failure. Check the bore of the drain pipe at oil change intervals.6 Use an approved lubricating oil of the correct grade and specification and maintain the engine lubrication system in accordance with the User’s Handbook, TSD3215.7 Make periodic checks to ensure that the exhaust system is unrestricted (for example: by choked silencer or damaged exhaust pipe). Overheating and loss of performance will occur if the exhaust back-pressure exceeds 51 mm (2 in) Hg under full load.8 If investigation of an engine fault involves checking the turbocharger, remove the trunking and spin the rotor assembly by hand. Check for freedom to rotate and listen for noises indicating binding or rubbing. If necessary, remove the turbocharger for cleaning and bearing checks, as described later.

18 9 Certain turbochargers are fitted with a waste-gate. The operation of the waste-gate must be checked at the intervals specified in the service schedule given in the User’s Handbook, TSD3215.Caution: If a new turbocharger is fitted or if a turbocharger has been removed and refitted to an engine, it must be primed with clean engine oil of the correct specification before the engine is first started. Refer to operation 18-1.

18Turbocharger

Description

The turbocharger is a turbine driven compressor which utilises the energy of the exhaust gases to increase the mass of the induction charge.

The unit is secured to the exhaust manifold assembly and consists of a bearing housing which contains the rotor assembly and bearings and to which is secured the turbine and compressor housings.

The rotor bearings are of the fully floating sleeve type. Lateral location of the rotor and control of end float is achieved by use of a shaft-mounted thrust ring assembly and a thrust bearing plate. Filtered oil from the engine is delivered under pressure to the turbocharger to provide bearing lubrication.

Drillings in the bearing housing direct oil to the bearings and the thrust bearing. The rotor assembly is sealed at each end by split ring type seals.

If the turbocharger is correctly used and maintained the life expectancy between overhauls may be regarded as equal to that of an engine. In the event of a turbocharger failure the cause must be found and rectified before a replacement is fitted. It is also necessary to check that the failure has not caused, or may eventually cause, any further internal damage to the engine.

Reconditioned turbochargers are available from Perkins distributors. Service kits, which include all of the new parts required for turbocharger overhaul, are also available from Perkins distributors.

To remove and to fit 18-1

To remove

1 Remove the turbocharger air ducts and the oil feed and drain pipes. Do NOT damage or bend the pipes.2 Support the turbocharger, unscrew the four securing nuts and remove the unit.

To fit

1 Clean the exhaust manifold and turbocharger mating faces, position the turbocharger on the exhaust manifold and secure with nuts and plain washers.2 Fit the oil supply and drain pipes. Tighten the two bolts which retain the oil inlet flange to a torque of 20 Nm (15 lbf ft). Connect the air duct. Where ‘V’ band clamps are used, they should be tightened to a torque of 8 Nm (6 lbf ft).3 Prime the turbocharger bearing housing as follows: Clean the area around the blanking plug fitted to the inlet flange of the oil supply pipe. Remove the plug and add 0,2 litres of clean engine oil, of the correct grade, to the bearing housing. Fit and tighten the blanking plug.

Caution: The turbocharger/s MUST be primed with clean engine oil before the engine is first started.

How to check the waste-gate 18-2

1 Apply air pressure up to a maximum of 207 kN/m² (30 lbf/in²) and feel for movement of the end of the control rod. This should be about 1,15 mm (0.045 in).2 If the rod fails to move, disconnect the rod from its lever and try to move the lever by hand. If the lever is stiff, that part of the turbocharger must be dismantled and cleaned.3 With the rod still disconnected, test the assembly again with air pressure upto 207 kN/m² (30 lbf/in²). If the rod fails to move, the diaphragm and rod assembly must be renewed.

18 Turbochargers: OE49342, OE50642, OE51140, and OE51430

These turbochargers are very similar in both design and operation.

Whilst OE49342 is illustrated (A), OE51140 and OE50642 differ from OE49342 in only minor details. Turbocharger OE51430 is the same as OE51140 except it is fitted with a waste-gate. The operations which follow apply to these three types of turbocharger.

Oil pressure with the engine on load must be between 2,0 kgf/cm² (30 lbf/in²) and 4,0 kgf/cm² (60 lbf/in²). Under idling conditions pressure should not fall below 0,7 kgf/cm² (10 lbf/in²).

To dismantle and to assemble 18-3

To dismantle

Refer to the exploded view (A) for itemised parts.

1 Use a scriber to mark the relative positions of the turbine housing (A23), the bearing housing (A19) and the compressor housing (A1).

Fit the two clamp plates and secure with eight bolts and locking washers, where relevant, fit the cylinder of the waste-gate assembly. Tighten the bolts to a torque of 8.5 Nm (75 lbf in).20 When fully assembled, check by hand that the rotor spins freely.21 Bend over the tabs of the locking plates on the turbine and compressor housings.22 Where necessary, fit the inlet baffle and its retaining ring to the compressor housing.

To clean and to inspect 18-8

To clean

1 Use a commercially approved non-caustic cleaning solution to soak parts until all deposits have been loosened. Bead blasting may be used on the turbine housing, but only if chemicals do not clean sufficiently.Caution: Do NOT use bead blasting on any other turbocharger components.

2 Clean all aluminium parts with a bristle type brush or plastic scraper. Vapour blast may be used except on the shaft and bearing surfaces.Caution: Do NOT use a wire brush or metal scraper on any turbocharger component.

3 Blow compressed air through all drilled passageways and ensure that the surfaces adjacent to the turbine and compressor wheels are clean, smooth and free from deposits.

To inspect

1 Inspect the shaft bearing journals and the walls of the seal grooves for wear and excessive scratches. Minor scratches may be tolerated.2 Check the turbine and compressor wheels for cracked or damaged blades but do NOT attempt to straighten blades.3 Check the thrust bearing surfaces for wear or damage. Minor scratches are acceptable. Ensure that the feed grooves in the thrust bearing are clean.4 Replace the bearings if excessively scratched or worn.5 Renew the bearing housing if the bearing or seal bores are severely scratched or worn. Ensure that the tapped holes are clean.6 Check the profile in the turbine housing for damage caused by possible contact with the rotor. Inspect the outer and inner walls for cracks or flaking caused by overheating, also check the mounting flanges for signs of distortion.

7 Check the compressor housing for damage caused by possible contact with the rotor. Slight damage is acceptable but otherwise the housing should be replaced. Check the condition of the ‘V’ band groove.8 Inspect the oil slinger (A12). Ensure that the walls of the seal grooves are not scored or damaged. Also check for signs of rubbing on the flat surfaces.9 Inspect the bore of the oil seal plate (A9), renew if scored or damaged.10 Inspect the heat shield (A21), renew if there are signs of distortion, rubbing or cracks.

General description

The engine has a wet sump type system. One of two types of sump is fitted: a cast aluminium type or, for recent engines, a version made from a composite material. The capacity of the aluminium sump is 25 litres (5.5 UK gallons) to the maximum mark on the dipstick and 18 litres (4 UK gallons) to the minimum mark. The capacity of the composite sump is 41 litres (9 UK gallons) to the maximum mark on the dipstick and 34 litres (7.5 UK gallons) to the minimum mark. The drain plug fitted to the sump depends on the type of engine.

19 The oil is circulated in the system at a pressure of 310 to 480 kN/m² (45 to 70 lbf/in²). Pressure is controlled by a relief valve assembly (A3) contained in the body of the oil pump (A2). The oil pump is mounted on the front main bearing cap and is driven by a large spur gear on the front of the crankshaft.

Oil is drawn by the oil pump through a strainer (A1), and is delivered, under pressure, to the oil cooler (A4), the base of which forms the oil filter header bracket.

After being cooled by the engine coolant, the oil passes through the two canister type filters (A5) which incorporate filter by-pass valves.

The filtered oil is then directed into the transfer pipe which returns the oil to the main oil gallery which is machined in the crankcase.

Drillings in the crankcase provide lubrication for the camshaft and crankshaft bearings. The crankshaft shown (A) is of the early type which included an oil reservoir within each crankpin. The crankshafts of engines built after July 1995 have a new arrangement of oil passageways which removes the need for oil reservoirs.

19Two oilway studs in the top face of the crankcase allow the passage of oil for lubrication of the rocker gear, push rods and tappets.

Individual drillings from the main gallery supply oil, under pressure, to the piston cooling jets. The jets, fitted with an ‘O’ ring type seal, are fitted to the underside of the main oil gallery. Oil flow from the jets is continuous when the engine is running and is directed at the inside of the piston.

The idler gear axle and bearing are supplied with oil under pressure from the main gallery, with the gear train being splash lubricated.

Oil to the fuel injection pump passes through drillings in the mounting plate and backplate and returns to the sump through a drain hole at the front of the pump. For recent engines, lubricating oil is supplied to the fuel injection pump by an external flexible pipe connected to the main oil gallery of the crankcase.

Oil is delivered to the turbocharger bearings through a steel pipe from the engine system and returns to the sump through a flexible drain pipe.

Certain engines are fitted with an oil by-pass filter. The by-pass filter uses centrifugal force to remove particles from the oil. After the oil has passed through the filter it is returned to the sump. The by-pass filter is fitted in addition to the main oil filter canisters NOT instead of them.

General description

A mechanically driven fuel feed pump draws fuel from the supply tanks and delivers it, via the main filters, to the injection pump gallery. The gallery pressure is maintained at a constant pressure by a low-pressure relief valve which is contained in the bolt which secures the spill pipe banjo to the fuel injection pump gallery.

Fuel enters the pump elements from the gallery, and is delivered at high pressure to the six spring type injectors, which are set to operate at 240±8 bar (237±8 atmospheres).

Excess fuel and spill from the injection pump, together with spill from the fuel injectors, is returned to the supply tank.

Overhaul instructions

Scrupulous cleanliness and careful handling of the components must be observed at all times when servicing items in the fuel system.

Thoroughly clean each component and its surrounding area before dismantling, and fit sealing caps or plugs to all unions immediately following any disconnections.

20Fuel injectors

Fuel injector fault

A fuel injector fault can cause an engine misfire.

To find which injector is defective, operate the engine at a fast idle speed. Loosen and tighten the union nut of each of the high pressure fuel pipes at the fuel injection pump. When the union nut of the defective injector pipe is loosened, it has little or no effect on the engine speed.

Warnings!Ensure that the fuel does not spray onto your skin.Ensure that the fan guards are fitted.

To remove and to fit 20-1

Special tools:

Removal tool, 21825 914

To remove

1 Clean the area around the fuel injector and around its connections.2 Disconnect and remove the leak-off pipe assembly from the fuel injectors.3 Disconnect and remove the relevant high pressure fuel pipe. For new 2000 series engines, remove the complete assembly of high pressure fuel pipes. Do NOT bend the pipes.Caution: Ensure that dirt does not enter the fuel injector.

4 Remove the nuts (bolts for early engines) and the clamp which retains the relevant fuel injector and withdraw the fuel injector. Fit plastic protection caps to the open apertures on the fuel injector to protect it from dirt. Remove and discard the copper sealing washer and the rubber seal, and temporarily seal the top of the fuel injector sleeve to prevent the entry of contamination.5 To remove a tight fuel injector, use the removal tool, 21825 914. Place the cylindrical portion of the tool (A1) over the relevant fuel injector and unscrew the nut (A2). Rotate the central part of the tool (A3) until the thread fully engages with the thread on the injector. Turn the nut (A2) with a suitable spanner; this action will lift the fuel injector from its sleeve without damage to the sleeve. Other, harsher methods, may damage the sleeve or the cylinder head.

20To dismantle and to assemble 20-2

To dismantle

1 Lightly grip the injector body in a vice and unscrew the nozzle cap nut.2 Withdraw the nozzle assembly, transfer block spring cap, valve spring and adjusting shims.3 Keep all the components from each injector together in individual trays.Caution: Each needle valve is matched to its individual body and must not be used with any other body.

To assemble

1 Lightly secure the injector body (A1) in a vice.2 Insert the adjusting shims (A2), valve spring (A3) and spring seat (A4). Locate the transfer block (A5) around the spring seat.3 Immerse the valve (A6) and nozzle (A7) in clean test oil and slide the valve fully home. Locate the assembly on the transfer block and fit the nozzle cap nut (A8). Tighten the nut to a torque of 45 Nm (34 lbf ft).

To clean and to inspect 20-3

To clean

If the facilities are available, the injectors should be cleaned ultrasonically. Alternatively, proceed as follows:

1 Wash the components of each injector in paraffin or fuel oil and dry with a jet of dry compressed air.2 Soak the nozzle in a carbon solvent and remove any remaining carbon using the relevant cleaning kit, together with a cleaning wire of the correct size. Wires are not included in the kit and must be purchased separately.3 It is important that the correct size of wire is used to clean the spray holes. Fit the wire into the holder with a maximum protrusion of 1,5 mm (0.0652 in), this will minimise the risk of the wire breaking in the nozzle spray holes.4 When the spray holes are cleared, re-soak each nozzle in carbon solvent, rinse in clean water and dry with a jet of dry compressed air. Dip in clean test oil.

To inspect

1 Use a magnifying glass to inspect each valve and nozzle for damaged or worn seats and spray holes. If the valve face or nozzle is discoloured, due to overheating, both components must be renewed.2 Dip the needle valve in clean test oil and insert it fully into the nozzle bore, held in a near vertical position.3 Withdraw the valve by approximately one third of its travel. When released the valve should slide onto its seat under its own weight.4 Inspect the pressure faces between the injector body, transfer block and nozzle for signs of scratches or damage which could allow leakage under pressure.5 Check the shims for damage and inspect the springs for distortion.

20To set and to test 20-4

Warning! Fuel injectors should only be serviced by personnel who have had the correct training and are aware of the dangers associated with high pressure fuel sprays.

A suitable test rig, such as a Testmaster or Poptest MK3, is required for the testing of fuel injectors. The test rig container must be filled with clean test oil which conforms to the ISO standard 4113.

Warning! When testing a fuel injector, the nozzle must be turned away from the operator, as the spray has sufficient force to penetrate human skin.

1 Slacken the vent screw and operate the hand pump until bubble-free test oil emerges. Tighten the screw and continue pumping until bubble-free oil flows from the discharge connection.2 Connect the discharge connection to the injector inlet and tighten securely. Close the pressure gauge valve to prevent damage to the gauge and operate the hand lever vigorously to expel air from the fuel injector.

Opening pressure test

Open the valve of the pressure gauge a quarter turn, operate the lever SLOWLY, and note the pressure to which the gauge needle ‘flicks’ indicating the nozzle valve opening. Opening pressure should read a minimum of 240 bar (237 atmospheres).

If the pressure reading is incorrect the fuel injector must be dismantled and adjusted by changing the shims. Add shims to increase pressure; remove shims to reduce pressure.

Leakage test

When the correct setting is obtained, dry the nozzle tip and pump up the pressure slowly until the needle indicates a reading of 20 bar (20.3 atmospheres) below the opening pressure previously recorded. Maintain this pressure for 10 seconds and then inspect the nozzle tip.

Slight dampness is acceptable but there should be no droplets of oil before the 10 seconds has elapsed. Do NOT attempt to rectify any leakage by overtightening the nozzle.

If droplets are forming within the 10 second period, dismantle the nozzle holder assembly, clean the parts, reassemble and perform the test again. If the fuel injector fails the test again, the nozzle must be renewed.

20 Back leakage test

Pump up the pressure slowly until the gauge needle indicates a reading of 230 bar (226 atmospheres). Release the hand lever and note the time taken for the pressure to drop naturally to 150 bar (150 atmospheres).

If the time taken is less than 6 seconds the nozzle assembly must be rejected. Continue monitoring the gauge and check the total time taken for it to register 100 bar (99 atmospheres). This time must not be less than 45 seconds.

Prior to rejecting a nozzle assembly it is advisable to ensure that pressure loss has not been caused by dirt or carbon on the pressure faces. In the event of a high number of rejections it is advisable to check that the fault does not lie within the setting outfit.

Chatter and atomisation test

To perform the chatter and atomisation tests, switch off the pressure gauge of the nozzle tester by closing the shut-off valve. This will prevent damage to the gauge.

When the hand lever is operated rapidly, the nozzle must be heard to chatter and provide a well-atomised spray of fuel.

Note: Slow movements of the hand lever will NOT produce the same results.

If a nozzle assembly, which has been ultrasonically cleaned, does not chatter, it MUST be renewed.

To perform the atomisation check, operate the hand lever at approximately two strokes per second. Check that each of the nozzle holes emits an equal and fully atomised spray of oil. A spray pattern which is even but not fully atomised is NOT acceptable.

The spray pattern produced by a used nozzle may differ from the ideal pattern obtained from a new nozzle, though the engine running behaviour may not necessarily be impaired.

Note: Carbon build up within the injector nozzle will cause low power from the engine. Ideally a flow check should be performed if the necessary equipment is available.

On completion of tests, fit protective caps or plugs over the nozzle and open connections. Store the injectors in a dry atmosphere until they are required.

20How to eliminate air from thefuel system 20-11

Air in the fuel system can cause:

Engine misfireUneven runningPoor engine performanceEngine stoppingDifficulty or failure to start

If air has entered the fuel system, the source of the problem must be traced and the fault eliminated.

Air can enter the system if:

The fuel tank is drained during normal operation.The low-pressure fuel pipes are disconnected.There is a leak from the fuel system during the operation of the engine.The fuel filter canister has been removed.There is a leak from the bowl of the preliminary filter.

To eliminate air from the system, use this procedure:

1 Ensure that there is fuel in the operating tank and that all leakages have been eliminated.2 Loosen the union at the outlet pipe from the lift pump; operate the hand priming pump (A1) and allow fuel to flow and then retighten the union.3 Continue to operate the hand priming pump and loosen the union on the outlet side of the fuel filter; allow fuel to flow before tightening the union.4 Continue to operate the hand priming pump and loosen in turn, each union where the high pressure fuel injection pipe joins its fuel injector. Tighten the unions once air has been eliminated.5 With all unions tightened, continue to hand prime until the relief valve is heard to open.6 Wipe away all spilt fuel.Warning! Ensure that:

a) Pipes have not been strained or distorted.

b) Unions and clamps have been correctly tightened.

c) Fuel does not spray onto your skin.

d) Spilt fuel has been thoroughly dispersed.

20 Air stop cylinder

For engines utilising an air stop cylinder, one of two types may be fitted. The first illustration (A) shows the type fitted to new 2000 series industrial engines. The second (B) shows the type fitted to earlier engines. The procedure below is correct for both types.

How to set the air-operated stop cylinder 20-12

To set correctly the position between the air cylinder plunger and the stop lever of the fuel injection pump, this procedure MUST be used:

The air cylinder (A1 or B1) and the inner adjustable stop lever (A3 or B3) are fitted to the rear side of the fuel injection pump, which is next to the engine crankcase. The adjustable stop lever is connected to the outer stop lever by a common shaft.

1 Ensure that all the nuts and bolts which attach the air cylinder and the mounting bracket to the pump are secure.2 Ensure that the air system of the vehicle is fully charged.3 Rotate the outer stop lever in a clockwise direction until it is tight against its fixed stop screw.4 Energise the air cylinder (A1 or B1).5 While the outer stop lever is still held against the outer stop screw, slacken the lock nut and adjust the screw (A2 or B2) until there is a 1mm (0.039 in) gap between the screw and the plunger of the air cylinder. Tighten lightly the lock nut.6 De-energise the stop cylinder. Energise the stop cylinder and check that there is 1mm (0.039 in) gap between the outer lever and its fixed stop screw. Tighten fully the lock nut.

Cooling system 21

General description

The illustration (A) on page 144 shows the coolant flow characteristics for a 2006 TW or TWG engine which has an air-to-coolant charge cooler. The illustration (B) on page 145 shows a 2006TA or TAG engine.

21 The coolant capacity of the engine, not including the radiator and pipework, is 24,4 litres (4.5 UK gallons). The coolant is circulated through the system by a belt driven pump mounted on the front of the engine. With the engine at normal working temperature the coolant is drawn from the radiator (A13) and into the oil cooler (A1). After passing through the oil cooler tube pack it flows through a steel pipe to the coolant pump. The coolant will then exit through an outlet at the rear of the pump and pass into the coolant gallery (A2). For engines (A) which include an air-to-coolant charge cooler, the coolant will pass from the pump into the charge cooler (A3), which is part of the inlet manifold assembly, before entering the coolant gallery (A2).

Coolant from the inlet gallery is directed to the cylinder liners where it circulates before passing through the transfer bobbins to enter the coolant galleries within the cylinder heads. After circulating around the cylinder heads, the coolant enters an external rail (A4) and flows forward to the thermostat housing (A6).

21 The coolant passes through the open flow valves in the thermostat and into the radiator. As the coolant flows through the pipework of the radiator, it is cooled by air drawn through the radiator, around the pipework, by the engine-mounted fan. If the engine is operating at a temperature below 78°C (172°F), or 82°C (180°F) for new 2000 series engines, the thermostat main flow valves (A1) will be closed and the coolant will then flow through the by-pass ports (A2), in the base of the housing, and return to the coolant pump.

Radiator

To remove and to fit 21-1

To remove

1 Drain the coolant system as given in the User's Handbook TSD3215.2 Disconnect and remove the pipe from between the oil cooler and the radiator.3 Disconnect and remove the pipe (B1) from between the thermostat housing and the radiator.4 Release the hose clips at the radiator end of the turbocharger-to-radiator air duct.5 Remove the air duct (B2), and retaining straps, from between the connection on the inlet manifold and the radiator.6 Remove the nuts and bolts which secure the radiator to the radiator stand and carefully slide the radiator assembly away from the engine. Ensure that the fan cowl does not touch the fan blades.Caution: Do not damage the fan blades during removal and fitting of the radiator. If the fan blades become cracked or bent it will be necessary to renew the fan.

To fit

1 Place the radiator on the radiator stand and carefully slide it toward the engine until the fan blades are halfway inside the fan cowl. Take care not to damage the fan blades.2 Loosely fit the nuts, bolts and washers which retain the radiator on the radiator stand.3 Rotate the fan so that two of the fan blades are horizontal. Stand behind the engine and check the horizontal distance between the two fan blades and the fan cowl. Adjust the horizontal position of the radiator until the gap is equal at both sides, then tighten the nuts and bolts at the base of the radiator.

4 Rotate the fan until two of the fan blades are vertical. Check the distance between the radiator cowl and the fan blades at the top and the bottom of the fan. The gap between the fan blades and the radiator cowl, at the top and bottom, must be equal. If necessary, adjust the position of the fan cowl by releasing the four screws at each side. When the gaps are equal, tighten the screws securely.5 Fit the air duct (B2) between the inlet manifold and the radiator, but do not tighten the hose clips at this stage. Fit the metal retaining strap, complete with setscrews, plain and spring washers, but do not tighten the setscrews at this stage.6 View the radiator and fan from the side to check the angle of the radiator to the engine. Check the distance that the fan blades protrude from the fan cowl at the top and the bottom. The distance should be equal. If it is not, slacken the three screws at the base of each side of the radiator, adjust the angle of the radiator until the fan blade protrusions are equal, then tighten the setscrews of the strap and the screws in the base of radiator. Tighten the hose clips to a torque of 4 Nm (3 lbf ft).

21 Fan drive belts

How to check the fan belts 21-3

Check all drive belts and renew a belt if it is worn or damaged. Where more than one belt is used between two pulleys, all of the belts must be renewed together.

Check the belt tension at the centre of the longest free length, for example, position (A1). For details about the alternator belt, refer to section 23.

Use a ‘Gates "Krikit" V-belt tension gauge’ or similar tool to check the tension of the belts.

The correct tension for all belts is 400 to 489 N (90 to 100 lbf).

Note: When new belts are fitted they must be checked again after the engine has been run for 15 minutes and, if necessary, adjusted to the correct tension.

How to adjust the tension ofthe fan belts 21-4

Note: Engines produced before the new 2000 series engine have a different belt tensioner. Refer to the relevant User’s Handbook for the correct adjustment procedure.

Loosen the bolt (B1) which is covered by the triple fan belts. The plate (B2), which holds the tensioner pulley, pivots about this bolt. Loosen the bolt (B3) which locks the cam plate (B4) and also clamps the plate (B2). Use a spanner on the hexagon (B5) and rotate the cam plate until the correct tension is obtained (as given above). Then tighten the bolts (B3 and B1).

Where more than one belt is used between two pulleys, check/adjust the tension on the tightest belt.

21 Thermostat

Description

The thermostat (A1) is a wax-type triple-element unit fitted to a housing (A2) above the coolant pump. It is correctly located in the housing by a roll-pin (A3), fitted in the rim. This ensures that the valves are correctly positioned over the by-pass ports.

To extract the thermostat, remove the thermostat housing cover (A4) and lift out the unit. The thermostat requires no servicing and must be replaced if it becomes defective. Sticking valves may be rectified by applying silicone grease to the spindles and operating the valves by hand until they are free.

Note: Silicone grease should be applied to the valve spindles of a replacement thermostat prior to fitting, or if the engine is to stand for a period with the coolant system drained.

How to check the operatingtemperatures 21-8

1 Mark the strap of the leading valve and place the thermostat, the correct way up, in a container filled with water to the level of the valve platform. Position a thermometer in the water as close as possible to the valves.2 Heat the water, and note the temperature at which the leading valve opens sufficiently to admit a 0,05 mm (0.002 in) feeler gauge.3 Continue heating and note the opening temperature of the two trailing valves.4 Continue heating, noting the temperature at which each valve stops moving and is fully open, i.e., approximately 9 mm (0.375 in) of travel.5 Compare the readings with the following limits:New 2000 series engines:Leading valve open: 77,5 to 79,5°C (171.5 to 175°F)Trailing valve open: 81,5 to 83,5°C (179 to 182°F)All valves fully open: 93,5 to 96°C (200 to 205°F)

Earlier engines:Leading valve open: 77 to 79°C (171 to 174°F)Trailing valve open: 81 to 83°C (178 to 181°F)All valves fully open: 93 to 96°C (199 to 205°F)

21How to check the operating speed 21-9

1 Immerse the thermostat, with all the valves fully closed, in boiling water to the level of the valve platform. Note the time taken, after immersion, for each valve to open sufficiently to admit a 0,05 mm (0.002 in) feeler gauge.2 Maintain the water at boiling point and note the time taken, from immersion, for all valves to open fully.3 Remove the thermostat and plunge it into cold water, noting the time taken for all valves to close fully.4 Compare the readings taken with the following limits:

Leading valve starts to open: Within 15 seconds

Trailing valves start to open: Within 20 seconds

All valves fully open: Within 60 seconds

All valves closed in cold water: 4 to 8 seconds

5 Should a thermostat fail to operate satisfactorily within the given limits it must be replacedCaution: If a replacement thermostat is not available, it will be necessary as a temporary measure only, to jack the valves fully open and run the engine with the radiator partly banked off. DO NOT run the engine without a thermostat fitted as this will cause the engine to overheat.

21 Oil cooler

Description

The unit consists of a finned tube pack (A1) in a housing, which incorporates the oil filter header. Coolant from the radiator passes through the brass tubes within the pack. Lubricating oil enters through a port at the rear of the housing and flows over the exterior of the pack. Baffle plates on the tube pack direct the oil across the tubes six times before it enters the oil filter header. After passing through the oil filters, the oil leaves the oil cooler assembly at the front and returns to an oil gallery in the crankcase.

The tube pack is fitted with an ‘O’ ring (A2) at each end to form an oil seal within the housing bore.

To dismantle and to assemble 21-10

To dismantle

1 Drain the coolant and disconnect the coolant hoses and lubricating oil pipes from the unit.2 Remove the two canister type oil filters.3 Remove the bolts which secure the unit to the mounting and lift it away.

4 Unscrew the 2BA screw (A3) from each end of the housing. Push the tube pack forward enough to allow the front ‘O’ ring to be removed.5 Withdraw the tube carefully towards the rear. Do NOT attempt to push the pack through the housing with the ‘O’ ring still in position on the pack. It is possible for the ring to foul in the oilway port and cause the pack to jam. If pressure is required to remove a tube pack it must not be applied to the sheet metal ends. Use a soft round wooden block applying the end grains to the ends of the tubes. Always check that the tubes remain clear and undamaged.6 Wash the pack carefully in fuel oil, blow through the tubes with compressed air and wash in hot water.7 Blocked tubes may be cleared by soaking the pack in a solution of 1 part inhibited hydrochloric acid to three parts of fresh water. When frothing ceases, carefully remove the pack and immerse it in a solution of 2,2 kg (1 lb) of washing soda in 23 litres (5 UK gallons) of hot water. Finally blow through the tubes with compressed air and wash the pack in hot fresh water.

21To assemble

1 Refer to paragraph 5 on page 156 with regard to the use of pressure on the tube pack. Always renew ‘O’ rings and hoses.2 Apply a light smear of rubber grease or ‘Linalube’ to both ends of the housing bore.3 Insert the tube pack into the housing, with the machined recesses aligned for the locating screws. Push the tube pack through the housing until the ‘O’ ring groove just emerges at the front.4 Fit a new lightly lubricated ‘O’ ring. Pull the tube backwards until the rear ‘O’ ring groove is just exposed.5 Fit a lightly lubricated ‘O’ ring and push the pack back into the housing to its correct position.6 Align the pack and fit the locating screws, complete with washers, to each end.7 Fit the unit to the engine with the relevant screws and washers.8 Connect the oil pipes and coolant pipes and refill the coolant system to the correct level.9 Fit new filter canisters: check that the sealing rings are correctly fitted to the new canisters and clean the contact faces of the filter head.10 Fill the two new canisters with new engine lubricating oil of the correct grade and lubricate the top of each canister seal with the same oil.11 To install the new canisters use this procedure: Tighten the canisters, on their adaptors, until the sealing rings are in contact with the face of the filter head, then turn the canisters a further 11/4 turns, by hand. Do NOT overtighten. Run engine and check for leaks.

To inspect 21-11

1 Visually inspect the pack for signs of cracks, corrosion or obvious damage.2 If possible, pressure test by applying air to the tube bores at 207 kN/m² (30 lbf/in²) pressure with the pack immersed in water at 80°C (176°F).3 Ensure that the housing is clean and completely free from burrs.

23 Alternator

The alternator fitted to current engines will be rated at 55 or 70 amps, depending on application.

Each type of alternator is fitted with an integral regulator. The regulator requires no adjustment during service and is a non-repairable item.

It is not advisable to attempt repairs to the alternator. Such work requires specialist equipment and knowledge. Should alternator failure occur, operators are advised to take advantage of the Perkins service exchange scheme.

Starter motor

As specialist equipment and knowledge are necessary to overhaul the starter motor assembly, it is recommended that an exchange unit is fitted. If the equipment and expertise are available, the instructions for starter motor overhaul are given in this section.

The starter motor is a 24 volt unit, actuated by an externally mounted solenoid switch through a lever arm. The pinion assembly incorporates a positive engagement device, an overload clutch and a freewheel ratchet. It is mounted on the flywheel housing.

Operation of the starter switch energises the pull-in and hold-in coils and actuates the solenoid to move the pinion into mesh with the starter ring. Should the teeth abut, the pinion moves back against its spring load and rotates slightly until engagement occurs. The starting contacts then close in parallel with the pull-in coil, which is de-energised, and full torque is applied.

If engine resistance is excessive the pinion clutch comes into operation.

When the engine starts, the pinion is allowed to run free, in mesh with the starter ring, until the starter switch is released. The hold-in coil is then de-energised, allowing the return spring in the solenoid switch to disengage the pinion through the lever arm.

Certain engines are fitted with control switches. These are set at the factory and cannot be adjusted. Discard if faulty

23Alternator drive belts

To check and to adjust the tension 23-1

To check

Check all drive belts and renew a belt if it is worn or damaged. Where more than one belt is used between two pulleys, all of the belts must be renewed together. See section 21 for details about the fan drive belts.

Check the alternator belt tension at the centre of the longest free length (A1).

Use a V-belt tension gauge to check the tension of the belt. The correct tension for all belts is 400 to 489 N (90 to 100 lbf).

Note: When a new belt is fitted it must be checked again after the engine has been run for 15 minutes and, if necessary, adjusted to the correct tension.

To adjust the tension

Loosen the two bolts (A2) and rotate the alternator on the pivot bolt to tighten the belt to the correct tension. Tighten the two bolts.

Check again the belt to ensure that the tension is still correct. Maximum belt life will be obtained only if belts are kept at the correct tensions.

Where more than one belt is used between two pulleys, check/adjust the tension on the tightest belt.

23To clean 23-6

Use white spirits to clean all the components. Do NOT dip the assembly of the pinion in the white spirits because the special lubricant in the assembly will be eliminated.

To inspect and to correct 23-7

1 Use an ‘Avometer’ to check the resistance of the pull-in coil and the hold-in coil. These should be 1.34 and 2.7 ohms respectively, at 20°C. Renew the solenoid switch if the coils are defective.2 Inspect the yoke assembly and the field windings, and also the starter motor housings for damage. Use suitable equipment to check the insulation of the field windings and to check that the continuity is not broken. Renew the complete assembly of the yoke and the field windings if any winding is defective.3 Inspect the armature for wear and damage, especially the splines. Check that there is no deflection of the shaft. Renew the shaft if the run-out exceeds 0,13 mm (0.005 in).4 Use suitable equipment to check that the continuity and insulation of the armature windings are not broken. The commutator should have a polished dark copper finish. Check that the run-out of the commutator is within 0,08 mm (0.003 in). If the armature is generally acceptable, the surface of the commutator may be corrected. Remove only the minimum material from the face. The final diameter MUST NOT be less than 52,375 mm (2.063 in).5 Use a growler and a 230 volt test lamp to check the armature for earthing, continuity and open circuits.6 Test the insulation of the carbon brush holders, and renew the carbon brushes if there is damage or wear. The minimum permissible length of the carbon brushes is 15,9 mm (0.625 in).7 Inspect the bushes in the end cover of the commutator and in the pinion housing. If there are indications of wear, use a 13/16 in BSF tapered tap as a puller to withdraw the old bushes. Press in the new bushes.8 Use the measurements of the old bush to machine a groove in the new bush which aligns with the lubricator wick.9 Put the end cover, or the pinion housing, in a lathe and ream the new bush to obtain an internal diameter of 19,100 to 19,152 mm (0.752 to 0.754 in). Ensure that there is concentricity of the bore with the location face of the shoulder.

10 Inspect the bush in the shift lever housing. If necessary, renew the bush and machine an oil groove which is the same as the groove in the old bush. Put the housing in a lathe and ensure that the bore is concentric with the location face of the shoulder. Bore the new bush to obtain an internal diameter of 22,20 to 22,25 mm (0.874 to 0.876 in).11 Inspect the shift lever and its shaft for wear and damage, and check that the arrangement which retains the shaft in the housing is usable.12 Check that the contactor disc is not burnt and that there is no erosion. If necessary, clean the contact face with smooth emery paper, or machine only the minimum material from the contact face: a maximum of 0,5 mm (0.002 in). If the erosion exceeds this limit, the contactor disc must be renewed.13 Check the contact faces on the heads of the terminals. Renew the terminals if they are burnt or if there is erosion.14 Inspect the assembly of the pinion. Renew the assembly if the components have excessive wear or damage.

23 To test 23-8

Caution: Ensure that the 24 volt electrical supply is connected to the correct terminals and that the insulation on the connection wires is not damaged.

1 Connect a 24 volt supply to terminals 1 and 3, push back the pinion assembly and, using a 4,76 mm (0.187 in) gauge, check the clearance between the pinion front face and its thrust washers (A). Adjust, as necessary, by turning the shift lever using the special tool (described in operation 23-4) as shown (B), with the switch de-energised. Do NOT leave the switch energised for more than 30 seconds.Caution: Adjustments must not be made while the solenoid is energised. Do NOT energise the solenoid for more than 30 seconds.

2 Replace the rubber plug in the solenoid switch, fit both jumper leads and apply a few drops of SAE 5W/20 oil to each of the three lubricating points (C).3 Test the solenoid switch for correct operating sequence, as follows:Fit a locally manufactured solid distance piece to the pinion shaft to retain the drive - to prevent the pinion gear from moving axially. Connect a 24 volt supply across terminals 1 and 3, and check with an Avometer that no reading is recorded between terminals 2 and 3 (D).

To fit the main starter cables 23-9

Caution: The main positive (red) starter cable is fitted to the terminal on the solenoid switch and the main negative (black) starter cable is fitted to the terminal on the end cover of the starter motor.

1 Fit the lugs of the relevant cables to the two terminals. Ensure that the polarity of the cables is correct and fit the locking washers and the lock nuts, or the stiffnuts if relevant.2 Hold a 19 mm (0.75 in) A/F spanner on the inner lock nuts to ensure that they do not move while the outer nuts are tightened to 25 to 30 lbf ft (34 Nm to 41 Nm) with a suitable torque wrench.

23Engine stop solenoid

Description

The solenoid switch is mounted on the side of the fuel injection pump. It is used in the energised-to-run mode and is connected to the governor stop control lever.

When it is energised, the dual circuits in the solenoid activate a plunger which moves the stop control lever to the RUN position.

A pull-in coil draws the plunger until the internal switch contacts open. This breaks the circuit of the pull-in coil and leaves a low-consumption hold-in coil energised to retain the stop lever in the RUN position.

When the stop solenoid is de-energised, a coil spring returns the plunger to its rest position and the stop control lever to STOP. This occurs when the STOP button is pressed, when an engine protection device breaks the circuit or as the result of an electrical failure.

How to adjust the linkage 23-10

To enable the solenoid to energise in the shortest possible time, the linkage must be adjusted as follows:

1 Disconnect the electrical supply, slacken the lock nut (A3) and rotate the rod (A2) until the linkage is disconnected.2 Connect a 24 volt DC supply of electricity and energise the solenoid. Ensure that the connections are fitted to the correct positions. The red wire is positive, the black wire is negative and the grey wire is for the indicator.Note: During the application of electric current to the solenoid, ensure that the plunger is located correctly in the solenoid body (B).

3 Ensure that the linkage is fitted to the control lever (C3). Energise the solenoid and move the stop control lever (C3) to the maximum RUN position (toward the solenoid).4 Hold the lever at this position and adjust the lock nut (C1) until its rear face is level with the front of the rod (C2) as shown. Ensure that the lock nut is not moved from this position on the thread.5 Connect the linkage to the solenoid and rotate the rod (C2) until it reaches the lock nut. Hold the lock nut with a suitable spanner and tighten the rod securely against the lock nut.6 Energise and de-energise the solenoid to check the operation.

These units are identified with alignment marks on both the crankshaft end and the drive gear. To ensure that these marks are correctly aligned on assembly, refer to operation 24-2.

2 Clean both joint faces and fit a new gasket over the three compressor mounting bolts.3 Slide the compressor into position ensuring that it engages with the camshaft gear. Fit the nuts and washers and tighten securely.4 Fit and secure the oil feed pipe and the two coolant pipes.5 Fit the air intake filter assembly or connect the pipe to the induction system (whichever is fitted).6 Refill the engine cooling system with coolant.7 Where necessary, fit the hydraulic pump and coupling.

24Compressor gear alignment 24-2

The following procedure is necessary for marking the compressor crankshaft for gear alignment when this has not been completed during manufacture, and also for ensuring correct drive gear to crankshaft alignment during reassembly.

1 View the compressor crankshaft from the threaded drive end. Looking through the mounting flange cast slots (A1) rotate the crankshaft until the balance weight is at Bottom Dead Centre (BDC). This is confirmed by ensuring that the balance weight cheeks are equally displaced below the horizontal centreline on both sides looking through the slots.2 With the machined base of the compressor crankcase sitting on a flat surface check that the machined tongue (B1) on the non-threaded crankshaft end lies horizontally. Scribe a vertical line centrally on the crankshaft threaded end from the centreline to BDC (A).Check again that the crankshaft machined tongue lies horizontally.

Lightly ‘centre punch’ a dot at BDC on the vertical scribed line (A) at approximately 6.0 mm radius.

3 Before fitting the compressor drive gear ensure that both the crankshaft taper and the gear bore are thoroughly clean and free from oil.Place the gear on the taper shaft and align the crankshaft dot mark (C1) with the dot on the gear end face (C2) so that the gear balance weight is also at BDC.

Fit the gear retaining washer, lightly oil the threads of the nut and tighten it to a torque of 180 ±20 Nm (132 ±14 lbf ft). For new 2000 series engines the nut should be tightened to between 200 and 250 Nm (148 to 184 lbf ft).

Check that the dot marks on both the crankshaft and the gear remain correctly aligned.

Running-in and test 25

General description

Every new or reconditioned engine which is supplied by Perkins Engines Limited is run and tested before it is received by the customer. There is no requirement for the running-in of the engine when it is initially in use, but it is recommended that the engine is operated in accordance with the instructions which are given in section 3 of the User’s Handbook TSD 3215.

A period of running-in, which is relevant to the rating of the engine, should be done in accordance with the instructions given below when:

A 2000 series engine has had a complete overhaul.The engine has been built with the use of a long engine, which consists of an assembly of the basic components which are new or which have been reconditioned - the crankcase, the cylinder liners, the crankshaft, the connecting rods, the pistons and the cylinder heads.A partial overhaul has used new cylinder liners, new piston rings and new bearings.

25 Running-in and test

To run the engine 25-1

Caution: Before the engine is run, ensure that the temporary lubricating oil filters, part number OE43712, are fitted to the oil inlet in the bearing housing of each turbocharger. The filters MUST be removed and discarded when the total period of running-in is finished; before the engine goes into service, the correct joints must be fitted in their places.

1 Prepare the engine as given in section 3 of the User’s Handbook TSD 3215.2 Start the engine and run it without a load. Check that the oil pressure is correct. Inspect the lubricating oil system and the coolant system for leakage and then stop the engine.3 Correct all leakage and add more lubricating oil and coolant, if necessary, to the correct levels. The schedule for the running-in of a 2000 series engine rated at 1500 rev/min, 1800 rev/min or 2100 rev/min is given below:

4 It is possible to overload the engine during phase 5 and, to prevent this, the load and the speed must be checked at the start of the period. During the running-in, if there is excessive noise or vibration, the cause should be found. The engine should be checked for leakage of fluids. If there are leakages, they must be corrected after the running-in is finished.The engine must only be stopped at the end of a period, or if there is an emergency.

5 When the schedule is finished and the running-in has been acceptable, check the consumption rate of the engine lubricating oil, operation 25-2.

25To check the consumption rate of the engine lubricating oil 25-2

The check given below is suitable for an engine which is rated at 1500 rev/min or 1800 rev/min.

1 Ensure that the level of the engine lubricating oil is exactly to the ‘H’ mark on the dipstick.2 Run the engine at its rated speed and power until the normal temperatures of the coolant and the engine lubricating oil are reached:

Coolant temperature at outlet 68°/85°CEngine lubricating oil 90°/105°C

3 Run the engine at the minimum load for two minutes. Stop the engine and check the level of the engine lubricating oil on the dipstick. Fill with new engine lubricating oil to the ‘H’ mark if necessary.4 Drain immediately the engine lubricating oil from the sump and from the heat exchanger into separate containers for exactly 20 minutes. The heat exchanger should be drained through the lowest point, which is the drain plug in the end of the housing.5 Measure separately the weight of each container with its contents and make a record of the weights.6 Fit the drain plugs in the sump and the heat exchanger and return the original engine lubricating oil to the sump. Measure the weight of the empty containers and make a record of the weight.7 Find the difference in the weight of the containers when with and without the lubricating oil. This will give the total weight of the lubricating oil. Make a record of this total.8 Run the engine at its rated speed with 90% of the maximum load, for two hours.Caution: If the engine is stopped during this phase, the test must be started again from paragraph 1.

9 At the end of the two hours, continue to run the engine without load for two more minutes. Stop the engine and repeat the procedures given in paragraphs 4, 5, 6 and 7.

The method for the calculation of the consumption rate of the engine lubricating oil, when the weights of the oil are in pounds (lb), is as follows:

Initial weight of the oil - final weight = litres/hour2.2

An acceptable consumption rate will not exceed 1,02 litres/hour.
