Basic Engine
SMCS - 1200
Cylinder Block, Cylinder Liners, and Cylinder Head

The cylinder block has cylinders which are arranged in-line. The crankshaft of the four cylinder
engine has five main bearings and the crankshaft of the six cylinder engine has seven main bearings.
The thrust bearings on the main bearing journals control the end play of the crankshaft.
A cylinder sleeve is available as a replacement. Replace the cylinder sleeve if a sleeve is worn or if a
sleeve is worn in excess of the service limit. Set up a boring bar on the cylinder block. Bore the
cylinder sleeve to 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) of the original thickness. Remove the remainder of the cylinder
sleeve with a hammer and punch. Install the cylinder sleeve in the bore of the block with the
appropriate tooling. Bore the sleeve and hone the sleeve to a diameter of 102.00 to 102.04 mm (4.016
to 4.017 inch).
A cylinder head gasket is used between the plate and the head in order to seal combustion gases,
water, and oil.
The engine has a cast cylinder head. An inlet valve and an exhaust valve for each cylinder are
controlled by a pushrod valve system.
Pistons, Rings, and Connecting Rods

The cast aluminum piston has three rings: two compression rings and one oil control piston ring. All
rings are located above the bore of the piston pin. The two compression rings sit in a cast iron insert.
The oil control piston ring is a standard type and the oil ring is spring loaded. Oil returns to the
crankcase through holes in the groove of the oil control piston ring.
The direct injection piston has a full skirt. The direct injection piston uses a special shape on the top
surface in order to help combustion efficiency.
The full floating piston pin is retained by two snap rings. The two snap rings fit in grooves in the pin
bore.
Piston cooling jets are located on the main webs of the cylinder block. The piston cooling jets direct
oil in order to cool the piston components and the cylinder walls. The piston cooling jets also direct
oil in order to lubricate the piston components and the cylinder walls.
Crankshaft
The crankshaft changes the combustion forces in the cylinder into usable rotating torque in order to
power the machine. Vibration is caused by impacts from combustion along the crankshaft. The
vibration forces are minimized by the use of a vibration damper. The vibration damper is located on
the front of the crankshaft.
A gear at the front of the crankshaft drives the timing gears. The gear also drives the oil pump.
Pressurized oil is supplied to all bearing surfaces through drilled holes in the crankshaft.
Lip type seals are used on both the front of the crankshaft and the rear of the crankshaft.
Camshaft
The engine has a single camshaft. The camshaft is driven at the front end. Bearings support the
camshaft. As the camshaft turns, the camshaft lobes move the valve system components. The valve
system components move the cylinder valves. The camshaft gear must be timed to the crankshaft
gear. The relationship between the lobes and the camshaft gear causes the valves in each cylinder to
open at the correct time. The relationship between the lobes and the camshaft gear also causes the
valves in each cylinder to close at the correct time.

(8) Retaining nut

1. Start the engine and run the engine at low idle.
2. Loosen the nut for fuel supply line at each fuel injection nozzle. Listen for the low idle to
decrease at each cylinder. Also, listen for the low idle to become rough at each cylinder.
3. The fuel injection nozzle may be damaged if the items that follow occur:
◦ Engine rpm does not decrease.
◦ The engine continues to run properly.
Remove the fuel injection nozzle from the engine cylinder head for additional testing.
Note: If leakage at the nut for fuel supply line occurs, make sure that the fuel supply line and
the nut for the fuel supply line are correctly aligned with the inlet connection of the fuel
injection nozzle. Do not tighten the nut for the fuel supply line on the high pressure fuel line
more than the recommended torque. If the nut is tightened more, the fuel line may become
restricted or the threads of the fuel injection nozzle and the nut may be damaged.
Cleaning Of Fuel Injection Nozzles
Personal injury can result from improper handling of chemicals.
Make sure you use all the necessary protective equipment required to
do the job.
Make sure that you read and understand all directions and hazards
described on the labels and material safety data sheet of any product
used to clean the components.
Observe all safety precautions recommended by the chemical

manufacturer for handling, storage, and disposal of cleaning agents.
NOTICE
Do not use a steel brush or wire wheel to clean the nozzle body or the
nozzle tip. Use of these tools can cause a small reduction of orifice size,
and this will cause a large reduction in engine horsepower. Too much
use of a wire brush will also remove the coating that is on the fuel
injection nozzle for protection.
Remove carbon with the 8S-2258 Brass Wire Brush which is included in the 8S-2245 Injector Cleaning Tool Gp .
Before the fuel injection nozzle can be tested, remove all loose carbon around the tip of the fuel
injection nozzle. Use the 8S-2245 Injector Cleaning Tool Gp to clean the fuel injection nozzle. Refer
to Special Instruction , SEHS8627, "Use of 8S-2245 injection Nozzle Cleaning Tool Group"for more
information.
1. Remove retaining nut (8) from the holder assembly (1) . Remove the tip assembly of fuel
injection nozzle (7) . Wash the needle valve and the body.
Note: Do not mix the needle valve and bodies of different nozzles. The components of the
nozzle tip assembly are a precise fit. The components must not be exchanged with other
components. Do not touch the sliding surfaces of the needle valve.
2. Wash tip assembly of fuel injection nozzle (7) in clean kerosene. After washing, assemble the
needle valve and the body in clean fuel.
3. Tighten retaining nut (8) to a torque of 30 to 39 N·m (22 to 29 lb ft).

4. Replace the nozzle tip if the discharge pattern is still unacceptable.
Note: Extra care should be used in handling the fuel injection nozzle in order to prevent damage to
the nozzle tip. A scratch or a burr could cause needle leakage or spray distortion. Dirt that is in the
orifices of the nozzle tip can damage engine components. Dirt can also cause spray distortion.
Fuel Injection Lines

Fuel from the fuel injection pump goes to the fuel injection nozzle through the fuel injection lines.
When the fuel injection lines are disconnected or removed, always put caps or plugs on the ends of
the lines in order to keep dirt out of the lines. Ensure that all of the line clamps and all of the vibration
dampers are installed in the original locations when the fuel injection lines are installed.
Note: Fuel injection lines can leak if the fuel injection lines are bent or damaged. Fuel injection lines
can also leak if the fuel injection lines are rubbing. Leakage of fuel can also cause a fire. Replace any
lines which have damage or leaks that can not be corrected when the nuts are tightened to the correct
torque.
Note: Ensure that the fuel injection line clamps are installed in the correct location. Incorrectly
installed clamps may allow the fuel injection lines to vibrate. Incorrectly installed clamps may allow
the fuel injection lines to become damaged. The damaged lines may leak. Leakage of fuel can cause a
fire.
All nuts that hold a fuel injection line to the fuel injection nozzle or to the fuel injection pump must be
tightened to the correct torque. If the nut is loose, fuel will leak from the connection. If the nut is too
tight, the inside diameter of the fuel line will become smaller. This causes a restriction to the flow of
fuel in the fuel line. Use a torque wrench to tighten the nuts of the fuel injection lines to a torque of
26.5 to 32.4 N·m (20 to 24 lb ft).
Pressure Test
Ensure that you wear eye protection at all times during testing. When
fuel injection nozzles are tested, test fluids travel through the orifices of
the nozzle tip with high pressure. Under this amount of pressure, the
test fluid can pierce the skin and cause serious injury to the operator.
Always keep the tip of the fuel injection nozzle pointed away from the
operator and into the fuel collector and extension.
NOTICE
Do not use dirty test fluids when you test fuel injection nozzles. Also, do
not test fuel injection nozzles unless you have the correct service
tools.The use of dirty test fluids and the use of incorrect service tools
will result in damage to fuel injection nozzles.
Pressure test the fuel injection nozzle by using 5P-4150 Nozzle Testing Group .

(12) 1U-8857 Extension Tube
(13) 8S-2270 Fuel Collector
(14) 8T-5313 Filter
Note: This procedure is a test of the first opening pressure of the fuel injection nozzle. The test for the
second opening pressure of the fuel injection nozzle can not be performed with this procedure. A test
of the second opening pressure requires the disassembly of the fuel injection nozzle and the use of
special shims. Disassembly of the fuel injection nozzles may invalidate the standards for emissions of
the engine.
1. Connect fuel injection nozzle (10) to the tooling that is shown in Illustration 3.
The spray from the fuel injection nozzle must be directed into 1U-8857 Extension Tube (12)
and 8S-2270 Fuel Collector (13) .
Refer to the table in the Specifications Module, "Fuel Injection Nozzles" topic for the correct
pressure settings. If the opening pressure is not within the range of the setting which is given in
the table, the fuel injection nozzle must be replaced.
Use clean 6V-6068 Calibration Fluid when the fuel injection nozzles are tested. The calibration
fluid is similar to SAE J-967 (ISO 4113) oil.
2. Close the gauge protector valve. Close the shutoff valve. Open the pump isolator valve. Flush
the fuel injection nozzle by operating the nozzle tester. Operate the nozzle tester for 10 to 15
strokes at a rate of approximately sixty strokes per minute.
3. Open the gauge protector valve. Slowly increase the pressure until the valve in the fuel injection
nozzle opens. Note the highest pressure indication on the dial indicator before the pointer
moves to 0 kPa (0 psi). This highest pressure indication is the opening pressure of the fuel
injection nozzle. The opening pressure will happen when valve needle rises from the nozzle
seat.
Refer to Specifications Module, "Fuel Injection Nozzles" for correct pressure settings. If the
opening pressure is not within the range of the setting that is given in the table, the fuel
injection nozzle must be replaced.
Back Leakage Test

Position the fuel injection nozzle so that the direction of the fuel spray is into 1U-8857
Extension (12) and 8S-2270 Fuel Collector (13) .
2. Pump the pressure to about 1957 kPa (284 psi) below the opening pressure of the fuel injection
nozzle. Refer to the Specifications Module, "Fuel Injection Nozzles" topic for the correct
setting of the opening pressure. Release the handle. When the pressure begins to decrease, note
the time that is required for the pressure to decrease to approximately 0 kPa (0 psi). If the fuel
injection nozzle is not damaged, the time will not be less than 5 seconds or more than 45
seconds.
If the time that is required for the pressure to decrease to 0 kPa (0 psi) is less than 5 seconds,
too much fuel is leaking around the valve needle. Replace the fuel injection nozzle.
Leakage test after ten seconds
(A) Acceptable
(B) Unacceptable
3. Look for any leakage from the pressure faces of the holder and the retaining nut of the fuel
injection nozzle. If leakage is visible, make sure that the components are tightened to the
correct torque.
If leakage continues to occur, unscrew the retaining nut from the body. Inspect the threaded
surfaces for foreign particles and damage. If the faces are clean and undamaged, test the fuel
injection nozzle. Repeat Steps 1 and 2.
Fuel Injector Nozzle And Seat Test

Position fuel injection nozzle so that the direction of the fuel spray is into 1U-8857 Extension
Tube (12) and 8S-2270 Fuel Collector (13) .
2. Pump the pressure of the nozzle tester to approximately 1957 kPa (284 psi) below the opening
pressure of the fuel injection nozzle. Fuel should not collect on the tip of the fuel injection
nozzle in a sufficient quantity in order to drip from the tip for at least ten seconds. A light
dampness is acceptable.
If the results of the tests are not acceptable, replace the fuel injection nozzle.
Test The Spray Pattern
Ensure that you wear eye protection at all times during testing. When
fuel injection nozzles are tested, test fluids travel through the orifices of
the nozzle tip with high pressure. Under this amount of pressure, the
test fluid can pierce the skin and cause serious injury to the operator.
Always keep the tip of the fuel injection nozzle pointed away from the
operator and into the fuel collector and extension.
The pressure adjustment must be correct before the spray pattern is tested.
Correct Spray Pattern For Fuel Injector Nozzles
1. Connect fuel injection nozzle (10) to tooling that is shown in Illustration 3.

Position the fuel injection nozzle so that the direction of fuel spray is into 1U-8857 Extension
Tube (12) and 8S-2270 Fuel Collector (13) .
2. Close the gauge protector valve and the shutoff valve. Open the pump isolator valve.
3. Quickly pump the nozzle tester and look at the spray pattern when the fluid begins to flow
through the orifices of the fuel injection nozzle.
The spray, which flows from all of the orifices, must have the same pattern. A difference in the
nozzle spray patterns indicates that fuel injection nozzle is damaged. Refer to the correct spray
pattern in Illustration 5.
Note: Be sure that the gauge protector valve is closed before fuel injection nozzle is removed
from the nozzle tester. Closing the gauge protector valve will prevent damage to the pressure
gauge.
Installation Of Fuel Injection Nozzles
Typical example of fuel injection nozzle
(1) Retainer for fuel injection nozzle
(3) Seat washer
1. When a fuel injection nozzle is removed from the cylinder head, replace the following
components:
◦ Retainer for fuel injection nozzle (1)
◦ Fuel injection nozzle (2)
◦ Seat washer (3)
Ensure that seat washer is 2.0 mm (0.08 inch) thick.
Ensure that all mating surfaces are clean.
Note: Ensure that all old gaskets are removed and that the new gasket is undamaged. If an old
gasket remains in the recess of the cylinder head for fuel injection nozzle, the depth of the
nozzle into the precombustion chamber will be incorrect.

Tools Needed
Part Number Part Description Qty
8T-2700 Blowby/Air Flow Indicator 1
Pistons or rings that have damage can be the cause of too much pressure in the crankcase. This
condition may cause the engine to run rough. There will be more than the normal amount of fumes
(blowby) rising from the crankcase breather. This crankcase pressure can also cause the element for
the crankcase breather to have a restriction in a very short time. This crankcase pressure can also be
the cause of any oil leakage at the gaskets and at the seals. These areas would not normally have
leakage. Other sources of blowby include worn valve guides and seal leakage of the turbocharger.

2. Connect a compression gauge to the cylinder.
3. Disconnect the fuel shutoff solenoid or hold the governor stop lever in the engine stop position.
4. Operate the starter motor and record the pressure on the compression gauge.
5. Repeat for each cylinder.
Note: Compression tests should only be used to compare pressures between cylinders of an
engine. If one or more cylinders vary more than 350 kPa (51 psi) then those cylinders may be
damaged.
Note: The cylinder compression test should not be the only test for determining the condition of
an engine.

lash on the exhaust valves for cylinders 2 and 4.
3066 Engine: Adjust the valve lash on the inlet valves for cylinders 3, 5, and 6. Adjust the valve
lash on the exhaust valves for cylinders 2, 4, and 6.
6. Hold the adjustment screw and tighten the locknut after the adjustment is complete.
Adjusting the valve lash several times in a short period indicates wear in a different part of the engine.
Find the problem and make any necessary repairs in order to prevent more damage to the engine.
Rapid wear of the camshaft and tappets can occur if insufficient valve lash is not corrected.
Insufficient valve lash can also be an indication of faulty valve seats. The following items are reasons
for faulty seats of the valves: faulty fuel injection nozzles, restrictions to the air inlet, dirty air filters,
incorrect fuel setting and overloading the engine.
Broken valve stems, broken pushrods, or broken spring retainers can be caused by insufficient valve
lash that is not corrected. A fast increase in valve lash can be an indication of any of the following
items:
• Worn camshaft and tappets
• Worn rocker arms
• Bent pushrods
• Loose adjustment screws for valve lash
• Broken socket on the upper end of pushrod
Fuel in the lubrication oil may be a possible cause of rapid wear of the camshaft and the tappets. Dirty
lubrication oil may also be a possible cause of rapid wear of the camshaft and tappets.
