Aftercooler Core - InspectSMCS Code: 1064-040

Note: Adjust the frequency of cleaning according tothe effects of the operating environment.

Inspect the aftercooler for these items: damaged fins,corrosion, dirt, grease, insects, leaves, oil, and otherdebris. Clean the aftercooler, if necessary.

For air-to-air aftercoolers, use the same methods thatare used for cleaning radiators.




Pressurized air is the preferred method for removingloose debris. Direct the air in the opposite directionof the fan’s air flow. Hold the nozzle approximately6 mm (.25 inch) away from the fins. Slowly move theair nozzle in a direction that is parallel with the tubes.This will remove debris that is between the tubes.

Pressurized water may also be used for cleaning.The maximum water pressure for cleaning purposesmust be less than 275 kPa (40 psi). Use pressurizedwater in order to soften mud. Clean the core fromboth sides.

Use a degreaser and steam for removal of oil andgrease. Clean both sides of the core. Wash the corewith detergent and hot water. Thoroughly rinse thecore with clean water.


Air Compressor - Inspect

After cleaning, start the engine and accelerate theengine to high idle rpm. This will help in the removalof debris and drying of the core. Stop the engine.Use a light bulb behind the core in order to inspectthe core for cleanliness. Repeat the cleaning, ifnecessary.

Inspect the fins for damage. Bent fins may be openedwith a “comb”.

Note: If parts of the aftercooler system are repairedor replaced, a leak test is highly recommended. TheFT1984 Aftercooler Testing Group is used to performleak tests on the aftercooler. Refer to the SystemsOperation/Testing and Adjusting, “Aftercooler - Test”and the Special Instruction, SEHS8622 for the propertesting procedure.

Inspect these items for good condition: welds,mounting brackets, air lines, connections, clamps,and seals. Make repairs, if necessary.

For more detailed information on cleaning andinspection, see Special Publication, SEBD0518,“Know Your Cooling System”.

Air Compressor - InspectSMCS Code: 1803-040

Do not disconnect the air line from the air com-pressor governor without purging the air brakeand the auxiliary air systems. Failure to purge theair brake and the auxiliary air systems before re-moving the air compressor and/or the air linescould cause personal injury.

g01076630Illustration 36

(1) Pressure relief valve

If the air compressor pressure relief valve that ismounted in the air compressor cylinder head isbypassing compressed air, there is a malfunctionin the air system, possibly ice blockage. Underthese conditions, your engine may have insuffi-cient air for normal brake operation.

Do not operate the engine until the reason for theair bypass is identified and corrected. Failure toheed this warning could lead to property damage,personal injury, or death to the operator or by-standers.

The function of the pressure relief valve is to bypassair when there is a malfunction in the air compressorsystem.

The pressure relief valve releases air at 1723 kPa(250 psi). Do not stand near the pressure reliefvalve. Compressed air may be released withoutwarning. All personnel should also stay clear of theair compressor when the engine is operating and theair compressor is exposed.

Refer to the Service Manual or refer to the OEMspecifications in order to find information concerningthe air compressor. Consult your Caterpillar dealerfor assistance.

Air Compressor Filter -Clean/Replace(If Equipped)SMCS Code: 1803-070-FQ; 1803-510-FQ

One of the single most important aspects ofpreventive maintenance for the air compressor is theinduction of clean air. The type of maintenance that isrequired for the air compressor and the maintenanceinterval depends on the type of air induction systemthat is used. Operating conditions (dust, dirt anddebris) may require more frequent service.

Refer to the Service Manual for the type of aircompressor that is installed on the engine. Followthe maintenance recommendations that are providedby the OEM of the air compressor. Some enginesuse boost air pressure so the engine air cleaner willrequire servicing.

62 SEBU7772-02Maintenance SectionAir Tank Moisture and Sediment - Drain

i00847451

Air Tank Moisture andSediment - Drain(If Equipped)SMCS Code: 1466-543-M&S

Moisture and sediment in the air starting system cancause the following conditions:

• Freezing

• Corrosion of internal parts

• Malfunction of the air starting system

When opening the drain valve, wear protectivegloves, a protective face shield, protective cloth-ing, and protective shoes. Pressurized air couldcause debris to be blown and result in personalinjury.

1. Open the drain valve that is on the bottom of theair tank. Allow the moisture and sediment to drain.

2. Close the drain valve.

3. Check the air supply pressure. The air startingmotor requires a minimum of 620 kPa (90 psi) ofair pressure to operate properly. The maximum airpressure must not exceed 1550 kPa (225 psi).The normal air pressure will be 758 to 965 kPa(110 to 140 psi).

i00072207

Alternator - InspectSMCS Code: 1405-040

Caterpillar recommends a scheduled inspectionof the alternator. Inspect the alternator for looseconnections and proper battery charging. Inspect theammeter (if equipped) during engine operation inorder to ensure proper battery performance and/orproper performance of the electrical system. Makerepairs, as required. Refer to the Service Manual.

Check the alternator and the battery charger forproper operation. If the batteries are properlycharged, the ammeter reading should be very nearzero. All batteries should be kept charged. Thebatteries should be kept warm because temperatureaffects the cranking power. If the battery is too cold,the battery will not crank the engine. The battery willnot crank the engine, even if the engine is warm.When the engine is not run for long periods of timeor if the engine is run for short periods, the batteriesmay not fully charge. A battery with a low charge willfreeze more easily than a battery with a full charge.

i02153996

Battery - ReplaceSMCS Code: 1401-510

Batteries give off combustible gases which canexplode. A spark can cause the combustible gas-es to ignite. This can result in severe personal in-jury or death.

Ensure proper ventilation for batteries that are inan enclosure. Follow the proper procedures in or-der to help prevent electrical arcs and/or sparksnear batteries. Do not smoke when batteries areserviced.

The battery cables or the batteries should not beremoved with the battery cover in place. The bat-tery cover should be removed before any servic-ing is attempted.

Removing the battery cables or the batteries withthe cover in place may cause a battery explosionresulting in personal injury.

1. Turn the key start switch to the OFF position.Remove the key and all electrical loads.

2. Turn OFF the battery charger. Disconnect thecharger.

3. The NEGATIVE “-” cable connects the NEGATIVE“-” battery terminal to the ground plane. Disconnectthe cable from the NEGATIVE “-” battery terminal.

4. The POSITIVE “+” cable connects the POSITIVE“+” battery terminal to the starting motor.Disconnect the cable from the POSITIVE “+”battery terminal.

Battery Charger - CheckSMCS Code: 1401-535

Checking Before Start-UpCheck the battery charger for proper operation. Ifthe batteries are properly charged, the needle of theammeter will register near “0” (zero).

The battery charger must not produce excessivecurrent during start-up. Alternatively, the chargermust be automatically disconnected for start-up.If the engine has an alternator, the charger mustbe automatically disconnected during start-up andduring engine operation.

Charging the Battery

Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or bat-tery circuit cable from the battery when the charg-ing unit is operated. A spark can cause an explo-sion from the flammable vapor mixture of hydro-gen and oxygen that is released from the elec-trolyte through the battery outlets. Injury to per-sonnel can be the result.

Perform the following procedure to charge thebattery:

1. Ensure that the charger is turned OFF.

2. Adjust the voltage of the charger in order to matchthe voltage of the battery.

3. Connect the POSITIVE “+” lead of the chargerto the POSITIVE “+” battery terminal. Connectthe NEGATIVE “-” lead of the charger to theNEGATIVE “-” battery terminal.

4. Turn ON the battery charger.

Overcharging of Batteries

Overcharging reduces the service life of batteries.Use a battery charger that will not overcharge thebattery. DO NOT charge the battery if the meter ofthe battery charger is in the RED zone.

Overcharging is indicated by the following symptoms:

• The battery is very warm to the touch.

• A strong odor of acid is present.

• The battery emits smoke or a dense vapor (gas).

Perform one of the following procedures if the batteryshows symptoms of overcharging:

• Reduce the rate of charging by a significantamount. Complete the charging at the reducedrate.

• Turn OFF the charger.

Table 12 describes the effects of overcharging ondifferent types of batteries.

Belt Tensioner - Inspect(If Equipped)SMCS Code: 1358-040


Belt tensioner

SEBU7772-02 65Maintenance SectionBelts - Inspect/Adjust

Inspect the belt tensioner for unusual noise,excessive looseness and/or shaking of the bearings.

If the belt tensioner should require disassembly, referto the Service Manual for the procedure.

i02486694

Belts - Inspect/AdjustSMCS Code: 1357-025; 1357-040

InspectionBelt tension should be checked initially betweenthe first 20 to 40 hours of engine operation.

After the initial check, the belt tension should bechecked at every oil change.

To maximize the engine performance, inspect thebelts for wear and for cracking. Replace belts that areworn or damaged.

For applications that require multiple drive belts,replace the belts in matched sets. Replacing onlyone belt of a matched set will cause the new belt tocarry more load because the older belt is stretched.The additional load on the new belt could cause thenew belt to break.

If the belts are too loose, vibration causesunnecessary wear on the belts and pulleys. Loosebelts may slip enough to cause overheating.

If the belts are too tight, unnecessary stresses areplaced on the pulley bearings and on the belts. Thismay shorten the service life of the components.

Remove the belt guard, if equipped. Inspect thecondition and adjustment of the alternator belts andaccessory drive belts (if equipped).

To check the belt tension, apply 110 N (25 lb ft)of force midway between the pulleys. A correctlyadjusted belt will deflect 9 mm (0.35 inch) to 15 mm(0.59 inch).

If the belt does not require replacement or adjustment,install the belt guard. If the belt requires adjustmentor replacement, perform the following procedure toadjust the belt tension.

Cooling System WaterTemperature Regulator -ReplaceSMCS Code: 1355-510

Replace the water temperature regulator beforethe water temperature regulator fails. This is arecommended preventive maintenance practice.Replacing the water temperature regulator reducesthe chances for unscheduled downtime.

A water temperature regulator that fails in apartially opened position can cause overheating orovercooling of the engine.

A water temperature regulator that fails in the closedposition can cause excessive overheating. Excessiveoverheating could result in cracking of the cylinderhead or piston seizure problems.

A water temperature regulator that fails in the openposition will cause the engine operating temperatureto be too low during partial load operation. Lowengine operating temperatures during partial loadscould cause an excessive carbon buildup inside thecylinders. This excessive carbon buildup could resultin an accelerated wear of the piston rings and wearof the cylinder liner.

NOTICEFailure to replace your water temperature regulatoron a regularly scheduled basis could cause severeengine damage.

Caterpillar engines incorporate a shunt design coolingsystem and require operating the engine with a watertemperature regulator installed.

If the water temperature regulator is installed incor-rectly, the enginemay overheat, causing cylinder headdamage. Ensure that the new water temperature reg-ulator is installed in the original position. Ensure thatthe water temperature regulator vent hole is open.

Do not use liquid gasket material on the gasket orcylinder head surface.

NOTICENever run the engine without an air cleaner elementinstalled. Never run the engine with a damaged aircleaner element. Do not use air cleaner elements withdamaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Dirt entering theengine causes premature wear and damage to enginecomponents. Air cleaner elements help to prevent air-borne debris from entering the air inlet.

NOTICENever service the air cleaner element with the enginerunning since this will allow dirt to enter the engine.

Servicing the Air Cleaner ElementsIf the air cleaner element becomes plugged, the aircan split the material of the air cleaner element.Unfiltered air will drastically accelerate internal enginewear. Your Caterpillar dealer has the proper aircleaner elements for your application. Consult yourCaterpillar dealer for the correct air cleaner element.

• Check the precleaner (if equipped) daily foraccumulation of dirt and debris. Remove any dirtand debris, as needed.

• Operating conditions (dust, dirt and debris) mayrequire more frequent service of the air cleanerelement.

• The air cleaner element may be cleaned up tosix times if the element is properly cleaned andinspected.

• The air cleaner element should be replaced at leastone time per year. This replacement should beperformed regardless of the number of cleanings.

Cleaning the Primary Air CleanerElements

NOTICECaterpillar recommends certified air filter cleaning ser-vices that are available at Caterpillar dealers. TheCaterpillar cleaning process uses proven proceduresto assure consistent quality and sufficient filter life.

Observe the following guidelines if you attempt toclean the filter element:

Do not tap or strike the filter element in order to re-move dust.

Do not wash the filter element.

Use low pressure compressed air in order to removethe dust from the filter element. Air pressure must notexceed 207 kPa (30 psi). Direct the air flow up thepleats and down the pleats from the inside of the filterelement. Take extreme care in order to avoid damageto the pleats.

Do not use air filters with damaged pleats, gaskets, orseals. Dirt entering the engine will cause damage toengine components.

The primary air cleaner element can be used upto six times if the element is properly cleaned andinspected. When the primary air cleaner element iscleaned, check for rips or tears in the filter material.The primary air cleaner element should be replacedat least one time per year. This replacement shouldbe performed regardless of the number of cleanings.

Use clean primary air cleaner elements while dirtyelements are being cleaned.

NOTICEDo not clean the air cleaner elements by bumping ortapping. This could damage the seals. Do not use el-ements with damaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Dam-aged elements will allow dirt to pass through. Enginedamage could result.

Visually inspect the primary air cleaner elementsbefore cleaning. Inspect the air cleaner elements fordamage to the seal, the gaskets, and the outer cover.Discard any damaged air cleaner elements.

There are two common methods that are used toclean primary air cleaner elements:

• Pressurized air

• Vacuum cleaning

Pressurized Air

Pressurized air can be used to clean primary aircleaner elements that have not been cleaned morethan two times. Pressurized air will not removedeposits of carbon and oil. Use filtered, dry air with amaximum pressure of 207 kPa (30 psi).


Note: When the primary air cleaner elements arecleaned, always begin with the clean side (inside)in order to force dirt particles toward the dirty side(outside).

Aim the hose so that the air flows inside the elementalong the length of the filter in order to help preventdamage to the paper pleats. Do not aim the streamof air directly at the primary air cleaner element. Dirtcould be forced further into the pleats.

Note: Refer to “Inspecting the Primary Air CleanerElements”.

Vacuum Cleaning

Vacuum cleaning is a good method for cleaningprimary air cleaner elements which require dailycleaning because of a dry, dusty environment.Cleaning with pressurized air is recommended priorto vacuum cleaning. Vacuum cleaning will not removedeposits of carbon and oil.

Note: Refer to “Inspecting the Primary Air CleanerElements”.


Engine Air Cleaner Service Indicator - Inspect

Inspecting the Primary Air CleanerElements


Inspect the clean, dry primary air cleaner element.Use a 60 watt blue light in a dark room or in a similarfacility. Place the blue light in the primary air cleanerelement. Rotate the primary air cleaner element.Inspect the primary air cleaner element for tearsand/or holes. Inspect the primary air cleaner elementfor light that may show through the filter material. If itis necessary in order to confirm the result, comparethe primary air cleaner element to a new primary aircleaner element that has the same part number.

Do not use a primary air cleaner element that hasany tears and/or holes in the filter material. Do notuse a primary air cleaner element with damagedpleats, gaskets or seals. Discard damaged primaryair cleaner elements.

Storing Primary Air Cleaner Elements

If a primary air cleaner element that passes inspectionwill not be used, the primary air cleaner element canbe stored for future use.

In addition to a good preventive maintenanceprogram, Caterpillar recommends using S·O·S oilanalysis at regularly scheduled intervals in orderto monitor the condition of the engine and themaintenance requirements of the engine. S·O·S oilanalysis provides infrared analysis, which is requiredfor determining nitration and oxidation levels.

Obtain the Sample and the Analysis


Before you take the oil sample, complete the Label,PEEP5031 for identification of the sample. In orderto help obtain the most accurate analysis, providethe following information:

• Engine model

• Service hours on the engine

• The number of hours that have accumulated sincethe last oil change

• The amount of oil that has been added since thelast oil change

To ensure that the sample is representative of theoil in the crankcase, obtain a warm, well mixed oilsample.

To avoid contamination of the oil samples, the toolsand the supplies that are used for obtaining oilsamples must be clean.

Caterpillar recommends using the sampling valvein order to obtain oil samples. The quality and theconsistency of the samples are better when thesampling valve is used. The location of the samplingvalve allows oil that is flowing under pressure to beobtained during normal engine operation.

The 169-8373 Fluid Sampling Bottle isrecommended for use with the sampling valve. Thefluid sampling bottle includes the parts that areneeded for obtaining oil samples. Instructions arealso provided.


If the engine is not equipped with a sampling valve,use the 1U-5718 Vacuum Pump. The pump isdesigned to accept sampling bottles. Disposabletubing must be attached to the pump for insertioninto the sump.

(1) The standard oil change interval in this engine is 250 hours,if the operating conditions and recommended oil types thatare listed in this table are met. If the type of oil, the quality ofthe oil and the operating conditions meet certain standards,the oil change intervals may be increased to 500 hours. Referto Special Publication, PEDP7035, “Optimizing Oil ChangeIntervals” in order to determine whether the oil change intervalcan be extended beyond 250 hours.

(2) Normal conditions include these factors: Fuel sulfur below0.3%, altitude below 1830 m (6000 ft), and good air filter andfuel filter maintenance. Normal conditions do not include highload factor, harsh operating cycles, or harsh environments.

(3) High load factors can shorten the service life of your engine oil.Continuous heavy load cycles and very little idle time resultin increased fuel consumption and oil contamination. Thesefactors deplete the oil additives more rapidly. If the averagefuel consumption of your engine exceed 43 L (11 US gal) perhour, follow the “High Load Factor” recommendations in Table15. To determine average fuel consumption for your engine,measure average fuel consumption for a period of 50 to 100hours. If the application of the engine is changed, the averagefuel consumption may change.

Fuel Tank Water and Sediment- DrainSMCS Code: 1273-543-M&S

NOTICECare must be taken to ensure that fluids are containedduring performance of inspection, maintenance, test-ing, adjusting and repair of the product. Be prepared tocollect the fluid with suitable containers before open-ing any compartment or disassembling any compo-nent containing fluids.

Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, “CaterpillarDealer Service Tool Catalog” for tools and suppliessuitable to collect and contain fluids on Caterpillarproducts.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations andmandates.

Fuel TankFuel quality is critical to the performance and to theservice life of the engine. Water in the fuel can causeexcessive wear to the fuel system. Condensationoccurs during the heating and cooling of fuel. Thecondensation occurs as the fuel passes through thefuel system and the fuel returns to the fuel tank. Thiscauses water to accumulate in fuel tanks. Drainingthe fuel tank regularly and obtaining fuel from reliablesources can help to eliminate water in the fuel.

Drain the Water and the SedimentFuel tanks should contain some provision for drainingwater and draining sediment from the bottom of thefuel tanks.

Open the drain valve on the bottom of the fuel tankin order to drain the water and the sediment. Closethe drain valve.

Check the fuel daily. Drain the water and sedimentfrom the fuel tank after operating the engine or drainthe water and sediment from the fuel tank after thefuel tank has been filled. Allow five to ten minutesbefore performing this procedure.

Fill the fuel tank after operating the engine inorder to drive out moist air. This will help preventcondensation. Do not fill the tank to the top. Thefuel expands as the fuel gets warm. The tank mayoverflow.

Some fuel tanks use supply pipes that allow waterand sediment to settle below the end of the fuelsupply pipe. Some fuel tanks use supply lines thattake fuel directly from the bottom of the tank. Ifthe engine is equipped with this system, regularmaintenance of the fuel system filter is important.

Fuel Storage TanksDrain the water and the sediment from the fuelstorage tank during the following conditions:

• Weekly

• Oil change

• Refill of the tank

This will help prevent water or sediment from beingpumped from the storage tank into the engine fueltank. A 2 micron filter for the breather vent on thefuel tank is also recommended. Refer to SpecialPublication, SENR9620, “Improving Fuel SystemDurablity”.

88 SEBU7772-02Maintenance SectionHoses and Clamps - Inspect/Replace

If a bulk storage tank has been refilled or movedrecently, allow adequate time for the sediment tosettle before filling the engine fuel tank. Internalbaffles in the bulk storage tank will also help trapsediment. Filtering fuel that is pumped from thestorage tank helps to ensure the quality of the fuel.When possible, water separators should be used.

NOTICEDo not bend or strike high pressure lines. Do not in-stall bent or damaged lines, tubes or hoses. Repairany loose or damaged fuel and oil lines, tubes andhoses. Leaks can cause fires. Inspect all lines, tubesand hoses carefully. Tighten all connections to the rec-ommended torque.

Check for the following conditions:

• End fittings that are damaged or leaking

• Outer covering that is chafed or cut

• Exposed wire that is used for reinforcement

• Outer covering that is ballooning locally

• Flexible part of the hose that is kinked or crushed

• Armoring that is embedded in the outer covering

A constant torque hose clamp can be used in placeof any standard hose clamp. Ensure that the constanttorque hose clamp is the same size as the standardclamp.

Due to extreme temperature changes, the hose willheat set. Heat setting causes hose clamps to loosen.This can result in leaks. A constant torque hoseclamp will help to prevent loose hose clamps.

Each installation application can be different. Thedifferences depend on the following factors:

• Type of hose

• Type of fitting material

• Anticipated expansion and contraction of the hose

• Anticipated expansion and contraction of thefittings

i02436705

Overhaul ConsiderationsSMCS Code: 7595-043

Reduced hours of operation at full load will result ina lower average power demand and reduced fuelconsumption. A decreased average power demandshould increase both the engine service life and theoverhaul interval.

The need for an overhaul is generally indicatedby increased fuel consumption, increased oilconsumption, excessive engine blowby, andreduced power. Arctic temperatures, extremely hightemperatures, corrosive environments, or extremelydusty conditions contribute to premature wear andthe need for an overhaul.

The following factors are important when a decisionis being made on the proper time for an engineoverhaul:

• The need for preventive maintenance

• The quality of the fuel that is being used

• The operating conditions

• The results of the S·O·S analysis

Oil Consumption as an OverhaulIndicatorOil consumption, fuel consumption, and maintenanceinformation can be used to estimate the totaloperating cost for your Caterpillar engine. Oilconsumption can also be used to estimate therequired capacity of a makeup oil tank that is suitablefor the maintenance intervals.

Oil consumption is in proportion to the percentageof the rated engine load. As the percentage of theengine load is increased, the amount of oil that isconsumed per hour also increases.

The oil consumption rate (brake specific oilconsumption) is measured in grams per kW/h (lb perbhp). The brake specific oil consumption (BSOC)depends on the engine load. Consult your Caterpillardealer for assistance in determining the typical oilconsumption rate for your engine.

When an engine’s oil consumption has risen to threetimes the original oil consumption rate due to normalwear, an engine overhaul should be scheduled.There may be a corresponding increase in blowbyand a slight increase in fuel consumption.

Overhaul Options

Before Failure Overhaul

A planned overhaul before failure may be the bestvalue for the following reasons:

• Costly unplanned downtime can be avoided.

• Many original parts can be reused according to thestandards for reusable parts.

• The engine’s service life can be extended withoutthe risk of a major catastrophe due to enginefailure.

• The best cost/value relationship per hour ofextended life can be attained.

After Failure Overhaul

If a major engine failure occurs and the enginemust be removed, many options are available. Anoverhaul should be performed if the engine block orthe crankshaft needs to be repaired.

If the engine block is repairable and/or the crankshaftis repairable, the overhaul cost should be between 40percent and 50 percent of the cost of a new enginewith a similar exchange core.

This lower cost can be attributed to three aspects:

• Specially designed Caterpillar engine features

• Caterpillar dealer exchange components

• Caterpillar Inc. remanufactured exchangecomponents

90 SEBU7772-02Maintenance SectionOverhaul Considerations

Overhaul RecommendationTo minimize downtime, Caterpillar Inc. recommendsa scheduled engine overhaul by your Caterpillardealer before the engine fails. This will provide youwith the best cost/value relationship.

Note: Overhaul programs vary according to theengine application and according to the dealer thatperforms the overhaul. Consult your Caterpillardealer for specific information about the availableoverhaul programs and about overhaul services forextending the engine life.

If an overhaul is performed without overhaul servicefrom your Caterpillar dealer, be aware of the followingmaintenance recommendations.

Rebuild or Exchange

Cylinder Head Assembly, Cylinder Packs, OilPump, and Fuel Transfer Pump

These components should be inspected according tothe instructions that are found in various Caterpillarreusability publications. The Special Publication,SEBF8029 lists the reusability publications that areneeded for inspecting the engine parts.

If the parts comply with the established inspectionspecifications that are expressed in the reusableparts guideline, the parts should be reused.

Parts that are not within the established inspectionspecifications should be dealt with in one of thefollowing manners:

• Salvaging

• Repairing

• Replacing

Using out-of-spec parts can result in the followingproblems:

• Unscheduled downtime

• Costly repairs

• Damage to other engine parts

• Reduced engine efficiency

• Increased fuel consumption

Reduced engine efficiency and increased fuelconsumption translates into higher operating costs.Therefore, Caterpillar Inc. recommends repairingout-of-spec parts or replacing out-of-spec parts.

Inspection and/or Replacement

Crankshaft Bearings, Valve Rotators, andCrankshaft Seals

The following components may not last until thesecond overhaul.

• Thrust bearings

• Main bearings

• Rod bearings

• Valve rotators

• Crankshaft seals

Caterpillar Inc. recommends the installation of newparts at each overhaul period.

Inspect these parts while the engine is disassembledfor an overhaul.

Inspect the crankshaft for any of the followingconditions:

• Deflection

• Damage to the journals

• Bearing material that has seized to the journals

Check the journal taper and the profile of thecrankshaft journals. Check these components byinterpreting the wear patterns on the followingcomponents:

• Rod bearing

• Main bearings

Inspect the camshaft for damage to the journals andto the lobes.

Note: If the camshaft is removed for any reason, usethe magnetic particle inspection process to check forcracks in the camshaft.

Inspect the following components for signs of wear orfor signs of scuffing:

• Camshaft bearings

• Camshaft followers

Caterpillar Inc. recommends replacing the crankshaftvibration damper.


Overhaul Considerations

Oil Cooler Core

During an overhaul, Caterpillar Inc. recommends theremoval of the oil cooler core. Clean the oil coolercore. Then, pressure test the oil cooler core.

NOTICEDo not use caustic cleaners to clean the core.

Caustic cleaners can attack the internal metals of thecore and cause leakage.

Note: Use this cleaning procedure to clean the oilcooler core.

1. Remove the oil cooler core.

2. Remove any debris from the oil cooler core. Toremove debris from the oil cooler core, turn the oilcooler core onto one end.

3. Flush the oil cooler core internally with cleaner inorder to loosen foreign substances. This will alsohelp to remove oil from the oil cooler core.

Note: Caterpillar Inc. recommends the use ofHydrosolv Liquid Cleaners. Table 16 lists theHydrosolv Liquid Cleaners that are available fromyour Caterpillar dealer.

5. Wash the oil cooler core with hot, soapy water.Rinse the oil cooler core thoroughly with cleanwater.




6. Dry the oil cooler core with compressed air. Directthe air in the reverse direction of the normal flow.

7. Inspect the components in order to ensurecleanliness. The oil cooler core should bepressure tested. Repair the oil cooler core, ifnecessary. Install the oil cooler core.

For more information about cleaning the cores,consult your Caterpillar dealer.

Obtain Coolant Analysis

The concentration of supplemental coolant additive(SCA) should be checked regularly with test kitsor with S·O·S Coolant Analysis (Level 1). Furthercoolant analysis is recommended when the engineis overhauled.

For example, considerable deposits are found in thewater jacket areas on the external cooling system, butthe concentrations of coolant additives were carefullymaintained. The coolant water probably containedminerals that were deposited on the engine over time.

A coolant analysis can be conducted in order to verifythe condition of the water that is being used in thecooling system. A full water analysis can be obtainedby consulting your local water utility company oran agricultural agent. Private laboratories are alsoavailable for water analysis.

Caterpillar Inc. recommends an S·O·S CoolantAnalysis (Level 2).

S·O·S Coolant Analysis (Level 2)

An S·O·S Coolant Analysis (Level 2) is acomprehensive coolant analysis which completelyanalyzes the coolant and the effects on the coolingsystem. An S·O·S Coolant Analysis (Level 2) providesthe following information:

• Complete S·O·S Coolant Analysis (Level 1)

• Visual inspection of properties

• Identification of metal corrosion

Power Take-Off Clutch -Check/Adjust/LubricateSMCS Code: 3055-036; 3055-086

NOTICENew power take-offs should have the clutch adjust-ment checked before being placed into service. Theclutch adjustment should be checked again after thefirst ten hours of operation. New clutch plates have a“wear in” period, and the clutch may require severaladjustments until the new plates are “worn in”.


(1) Instruction plate(2) Serial number plate

Check the clutch adjustment regularly after “wear in”.Heavy-duty applications which have engagementsthat are frequent and relatively long periods ofclutch slippage require more frequent adjustmentthan light-duty applications. The operating torqueshould be measured in order to determine if a clutchadjustment is required.

Refer to the OEM information and instruction plate(1) for instructions on lubrication, adjustment, andother recommendations for service. Perform themaintenance that is specified on the instruction plate.

Do not operate the engine with the InstructionPlate cover removed from the clutch. Personalinjury may result.

If the clutch is damaged to the point of burst fail-ure, expelled pieces can cause personal injury toanyone in the immediate area. Proper safeguardsmust be followed to help prevent accidents.

i01604510

Radiator - CleanSMCS Code: 1353-070

Note: Adjust the frequency of cleaning according tothe effects of the operating environment.

Inspect the radiator for these items: damaged fins,corrosion, dirt, grease, insects, leaves, oil, and otherdebris. Clean the radiator, if necessary.




Pressurized air is the preferred method for removingloose debris. Direct the air in the opposite directionof the fan’s air flow. Hold the nozzle approximately6 mm (0.25 inch) away from the fins. Slowly move theair nozzle in a direction that is parallel with the tubes.This will remove debris that is between the tubes.

Pressurized water may also be used for cleaning.The maximum water pressure for cleaning purposesmust be less than 275 kPa (40 psi). Use pressurizedwater in order to soften mud. Clean the core fromboth sides.

Use a degreaser and steam for removal of oil andgrease. Clean both sides of the core. Wash the corewith detergent and hot water. Thoroughly rinse thecore with clean water.

After cleaning, start the engine and accelerate theengine to high idle rpm. This will help in the removalof debris and drying of the core. Stop the engine.Use a light bulb behind the core in order to inspectthe core for cleanliness. Repeat the cleaning, ifnecessary.


Severe Service Application - Check

Inspect the fins for damage. Bent fins may be openedwith a “comb”. Inspect these items for good condition:welds, mounting brackets, air lines, connections,clamps, and seals. Make repairs, if necessary.

Refer to the standards for the engine or consult withyour Caterpillar dealer in order to determine if theengine is operating within the defined parameters.

Severe service operation can accelerate componentwear. Engines that operate under severe conditionsmay need more frequent maintenance intervals inorder to ensure maximum reliability and retention offull service life.

Due to individual applications, it is not possible toidentify all of the factors which can contribute tosevere service operation. Consult your Caterpillardealer for the unique maintenance that is necessaryfor the engine.

The operating environment, improper operatingprocedures and improper maintenance procedurescan be factors which contribute to severe serviceconditions.

Environmental FactorsAmbient temperatures – The engine may beexposed to extended operation in extremelycold environments or hot environments. Valvecomponents can be damaged by carbon buildup ifthe engine is frequently started and stopped in verycold temperatures. Extremely hot inlet air reducesengine performance.

Air Quality – The engine may be exposed toextended operation in an environment that is dirtyor dusty, unless the equipment is cleaned regularly.Mud, dirt and dust can encase components.Maintenance can be very difficult. The buildup cancontain corrosive chemicals.

Buildup – Compounds, elements, corrosivechemicals and salt can damage some components.

Altitude – Problems can arise when the engine isoperated at altitudes that are higher than the intendedsettings for that application. Necessary adjustmentsshould be made.

Improper Operating Procedures• Extended operation at low idle

• Frequent hot shutdowns

• Operating at excessive loads

• Operating at excessive speeds

• Operating outside the intended application

Improper Maintenance Procedures• Extending the maintenance intervals

• Failure to use recommended fuel, lubricants andcoolant/antifreeze

Turbocharger - InspectSMCS Code: 1052-040; 1052

Periodic inspection and cleaning is recommendedfor the turbocharger compressor housing (inlet side).Any fumes from the crankcase are filtered throughthe air inlet system. Therefore, by-products from oiland from combustion can collect in the turbochargercompressor housing. Over time, this buildup cancontribute to loss of engine power, increased blacksmoke and overall loss of engine efficiency.

If the turbocharger fails during engine operation,damage to the turbocharger compressor wheeland/or to the engine may occur. Damage to theturbocharger compressor wheel can cause additionaldamage to the pistons, the valves, and the cylinderhead.

NOTICETurbocharger bearing failures can cause large quan-tities of oil to enter the air inlet and exhaust systems.Loss of engine lubricant can result in serious enginedamage.

Minor leakage of a turbocharger housing under ex-tended low idle operation should not cause problemsas long as a turbocharger bearing failure has not oc-curred.

When a turbocharger bearing failure is accompaniedby a significant engine performance loss (exhaustsmoke or engine rpm up at no load), do not continueengine operation until the turbocharger is repaired orreplaced.

An inspection of the turbocharger can minimizeunscheduled downtime. An inspection of theturbocharger can also reduce the chance for potentialdamage to other engine parts.

Note: Turbocharger components require precisionclearances. The turbocharger cartridge mustbe balanced due to high rpm. Severe ServiceApplications can accelerate component wear.Severe Service Applications require more frequentinspections of the cartridge.

Removal and InstallationFor options regarding the removal, installation, repairand replacement, consult your Caterpillar dealer.Refer to the Service Manual for this engine for theprocedure and specifications.

Cleaning and Inspecting1. Remove the exhaust outlet piping and removethe air inlet piping from the turbocharger. Visuallyinspect the piping for the presence of oil. Cleanthe interior of the pipes in order to prevent dirtfrom entering during reassembly.

2. Turn the compressor wheel and the turbine wheelby hand. The assembly should turn freely. Inspectthe compressor wheel and the turbine wheel forcontact with the turbocharger housing. Thereshould not be any visible signs of contact betweenthe turbine wheel or compressor wheel and theturbocharger housing. If there is any indication ofcontact between the rotating turbine wheel or thecompressor wheel and the turbocharger housing,the turbocharger must be reconditioned.

3. Check the compressor wheel for cleanliness.If only the blade side of the wheel is dirty, dirtand/or moisture is passing through the air filteringsystem. If oil is found only on the back side of thewheel, there is a possibility of a failed turbochargeroil seal.

The presence of oil may be the result of extendedengine operation at low idle. The presence of oilmay also be the result of a restriction of the linefor the inlet air (plugged air filters), which causesthe turbocharger to slobber.

4. Use a dial indicator to check the end clearanceon the shaft. If the measured end play is greaterthan the Service Manual specifications, theturbocharger should be repaired or replaced.An end play measurement that is less than theminimum Service Manual specifications couldindicate carbon buildup on the turbine wheel. Theturbocharger should be disassembled for cleaningand for inspection if the measured end play is lessthan the minimum Service Manual specifications.

5. Inspect the bore of the turbine housing forcorrosion.

6. Clean the turbocharger housing with standardshop solvents and a soft bristle brush.

7. Fasten the air inlet piping and the exhaust outletpiping to the turbocharger housing.


Walk-Around Inspection

i01185304

Walk-Around InspectionSMCS Code: 1000-040

Inspect the Engine for Leaks andfor Loose ConnectionsA walk-around inspection should only take a fewminutes. When the time is taken to perform thesechecks, costly repairs and accidents can be avoided.

For maximum engine service life, make a thoroughinspection of the engine compartment before startingthe engine. Look for items such as oil leaks or coolantleaks, loose bolts, worn belts, loose connections andtrash buildup. Make repairs, as needed:

• The guards must be in the proper place. Repairdamaged guards or replace missing guards.

• Wipe all caps and plugs before the engine isserviced in order to reduce the chance of systemcontamination.

NOTICEFor any type of leak (coolant, lube, or fuel) clean up thefluid. If leaking is observed, find the source and correctthe leak. If leaking is suspected, check the fluid levelsmore often than recommended until the leak is foundor fixed, or until the suspicion of a leak is proved to beunwarranted.

NOTICEAccumulated grease and/or oil on an engine or deck isa fire hazard. Remove this debris with steam cleaningor high pressure water.

• Ensure that the cooling lines are properly clampedand that the cooling lines are tight. Check for leaks.Check the condition of all pipes.

• Inspect the water pumps for coolant leaks.

Note: The water pump seal is lubricated by coolantin the cooling system. It is normal for a small amountof leakage to occur as the engine cools down andthe parts contract.

Excessive coolant leakage may indicate the needto replace the water pump seal. For the removal ofwater pumps and the installation of water pumpsand/or seals, refer to the Service Manual for theengine or consult your Caterpillar dealer.

• Inspect the lubrication system for leaks at the frontcrankshaft seal, the rear crankshaft seal, the oilpan, the oil filters and the valve cover.

• Inspect the fuel system for leaks. Look for loosefuel line clamps or for loose fuel line tie-wraps.

• Inspect the piping for the air inlet system and theelbows for cracks and for loose clamps. Ensurethat hoses and tubes are not contacting otherhoses, tubes, wiring harnesses, etc.

• Inspect the alternator belt and the accessory drivebelts for cracks, breaks or other damage.

Belts for multiple groove pulleys must be replaced asmatched sets. If only one belt is replaced, the belt willcarry more load than the belts that are not replaced.The older belts are stretched. The additional load onthe new belt could cause the belt to break.

• Drain the water and the sediment from fuel tankson a daily basis in order to ensure that only cleanfuel enters the fuel system.

• Inspect the wiring and the wiring harnesses forloose connections and for worn wires or frayedwires.

• Inspect the ground strap for a good connection andfor good condition.

• Inspect the ECM to the cylinder head ground strapfor a good connection and for good condition.

• Disconnect any battery chargers that are notprotected against the current drain of the startingmotor. Check the condition and the electrolyte levelof the batteries, unless the engine is equipped witha maintenance free battery.

• Check the condition of the gauges. Replace anygauges that are cracked. Replace any gauge thatcan not be calibrated.
