Electronic Unit Injector - Test

SMCS - 1290-081

This procedure assists in identifying the cause for an injector misfiring. Perform this procedure
only after performing the Cylinder Cutout Test. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Injector Solenoid
Circuit Test" for more information.

1. Check for air in the fuel, if this procedure has not already been performed. Refer to Testing
and Adjusting, "Air in Fuel - Test".

Electrical shock hazard. The electronic unit injector system uses 90-120
volts.

2. Remove the valve cover and look for broken parts. Repair any broken parts or replace any
broken parts that are found. Inspect all wiring to the solenoids. Look for loose connections.
Also look for frayed wires or broken wires. Ensure that the connector for the unit injector
solenoid is properly connected. Perform a pull test on each of the wires. Refer to
Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect". Inspect the posts of the solenoid for
arcing. If arcing or evidence of arcing is found, remove the cap assembly. Refer to
Disassembly and Assembly Manual, "Electronic Unit Injector - Remove". Clean the
connecting posts. Reinstall the cap assembly and tighten the solenoid nuts to a torque of 2.5
± 0.25 N·m (22 ± 2 lb in). Refer to Disassembly and Assembly Manual, "Electronic Unit
Injector - Install".

3. Check the valve lash setting for the cylinder of the suspect unit injector. Refer to Testing
and Adjusting, "Engine Valve Lash - Inspect/Adjust".

4. Look for signs of fuel leakage. Investigate the source of the leaking fuel. Remedy the cause
of the fuel leak.

5. Ensure that the bolt that holds the unit injector is tightened to the proper torque. If
necessary, loosen the bolt that holds the unit injector and tighten the bolt to a torque of 55 ±
10 N·m (40.6 ± 7.4 lb ft).

6. Remove the suspect unit injector and check the unit injector for signs of exposure to
coolant. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly Manual, "Electronic Unit Injector - Remove".
Exposure to coolant will cause rust to form on the injector. If the unit injector shows signs
of exposure to coolant, remove the injector sleeve and inspect the injector sleeve. Refer to
Disassembly and Assembly Manual, "Electronic Unit Injector Sleeve - Remove". Replace
the injector sleeve if the injector sleeve is damaged. Check the unit injector for an excessive
brown discoloration that extends beyond the injector tip. If excessive discoloration is found,
check the quality of the fuel. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel Quality - Test". Replace
the seals on the injector and reinstall the injector. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly
Manual, "Electronic Unit Injector - Install". Also refer to Disassembly and Assembly
Manual, "Electronic Unit Injector Sleeve - Install".

7. If the problem is not resolved, replace the suspect injector with a new injector. In order to
verify that the new injector is working properly, perform the Cylinder Cutout Test. Use the
Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET).
