INSTALLATION
All high-pressure fuel lines are of the same length
and inside diameter. Correct high-pressure fuel line
usage and installation is critical to smooth engine
operation.
CAUTION: Anytime a high-pressure line is removed
from the engine, its fuel connector nut at the cylin-
der head must first be retorqued. Refer to Torque
Specifications.
(1) Tighten fuel lines at high pressure injector con-
nector. Refer to Torque Specifications.
(2) Position fuel line support clamp(s) to fuel
line(s). Install clamp nuts/bolts and tighten finger
tight.
(3) Position proper fuel line to proper injector on
engine. Tighten fittings hand tight at both ends of
line.
(4) Tighten fuel lines at fuel rail. Refer to Torque
Specifications.
(5) Tighten clamp/support nuts and bolts. Refer to
Torque Specifications.
(6) Install engine lifting bracket and bolt. Refer to
Torque Specifications.
(7) If fuel line at either #1 or #2 cylinder has been
replaced, install intake manifold air heater elements
to top of intake manifold. Refer to Intake Air Heater
Removal / Installation for procedures.
(8) If fuel line at #6 cylinder has been replaced, tilt
metal bracket upward and tighten 2 bolts at rear of
cylinder head. Refer to Torque Specifications.
(9) Install remaining fuel line support clamps and
bracket bolts at intake manifold. Refer to Torque
Specifications.
(10) Connect both negative battery cables to both
batteries.

FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The fuel pressure sensor is mounted vertically near
the top/center of the fuel rail.
OPERATION
The fuel pressure sensor monitors actual high-
pressure within the fuel rail. An output signal from
this sensor (relating to fuel pressure) is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM).
REMOVAL
The fuel pressure sensor is mounted vertically near
the top/center of the fuel rail (Fig. 17).
(1) Disconnect electrical connector at sensor.
(2) Remove sensor from fuel rail.
(3) Inspect sensor sealing ring and its sealing sur-
face.

FUEL PRESSURE LIMITING
VA LV E
DESCRIPTION
The fuel pressure limiting valve is located on the
top of the fuel rail.
OPERATION
Fuel pressure at the fuel rail is monitored by the
fuel rail pressure sensor. If fuel pressure becomes
excessive, the pressure limiting valve opens and
vents excess pressure into the fuel drain circuit.
REMOVAL
The fuel pressure limiting valve is located on the
top of the fuel rail (Fig. 18).
CAUTION: Cleanliness cannot be overemphasized
when handling or replacing diesel fuel system com-
ponents. This especially includes the fuel injectors,
high-pressure fuel lines and fuel injection pump.
Very tight tolerances are used with these parts. Dirt
contamination could cause rapid part wear and pos-
sible plugging of fuel injector nozzle tip holes. This
in turn could lead to possible engine misfire.
Always wash/clean any fuel system component
thoroughly before disassembly and then air dry.
Cap or cover any open part after disassembly.
Before assembly, examine each part for dirt, grease
or other contaminants and clean if necessary. When
installing new parts, lubricate them with clean
engine oil or clean diesel fuel only.
(1) Thoroughly clean area at pressure limiting
valve.
(2) Remove banjo bolt (Fig. 18) at banjo fitting.
(3) Remove pressure limiting valve from fuel rail.
INSTALLATION
(1) Be sure both top of manifold and limiting valve
are clean.
(2) Install valve. Refer to Torque Specifications.
(3) Assemble banjo bolt and new sealing washers
to limiting valve.
(4) Tighten banjo bolt. Refer to Torque Specifica-
tions.

ACCELERATOR PEDAL
POSITION SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Engine Mounted Sensor:The APPS assembly is
located at the top-left-front of the engine. A plastic
cover is used to cover the assembly. The actual sen-
sor is located behind its mounting bracket.
Battery Tray Mounted Sensor:The Accelerator
Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) assembly is located
under the vehicle battery tray. A cable connects the
assembly to the accelerator pedal. A plastic cover
with a movable door is used to cover the assembly.
OPERATION
Engine Mounted Sensor:The Accelerator Pedal
Position Sensor (APPS) is a linear potentiometer. Itprovides the Engine Control Module (ECM) with a
DC voltage signal proportional to the angle, or posi-
tion of the accelerator pedal.
Battery Tray Mounted Sensor:The APPS pro-
vides the ECM with two DC voltage signals which
change as the position of the accelerator changes.
One of the DC voltage signals will be half the voltage
of the other signal.
REMOVAL
Engine Mounted Sensor :
The APPS is serviced (replaced) as one assembly
including the lever, brackets and sensor. The APPS is
calibrated to its mounting bracket. The APPS assem-
bly is located at left-front of engine below plastic
cable/lever/linkage cover (Fig. 1).

FUEL CONTROL ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) is located at the
rear of the high-pressure, fuel injection pump (Fig.
13).
OPERATION
The Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) is an electroni-
cally controlled solenoid valve. The ECM controls the
amount of fuel that enters the high-pressure pump-
ing chambers by opening and closing the FCA based
on a demanded fuel pressure. When the FCA is
opened, the maximum amount of fuel is being sup-
plied to the fuel injection pump. Any fuel that does
not enter the injection pump is directed to the cas-
cade overflow valve. The cascade overflow valve reg-
ulates how much excess fuel is used for lubrication of
the pump and how much is returned to the fuel tank
through the drain manifold.
An audible click from the FCA is normal when
operating the key from the ON to the OFF position.
REMOVAL
The Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) is a non-servi-
cable part.
FUEL INJECTOR
DESCRIPTION
Six individual, solenoid actuated high-pressure fuel
injectors are used (Fig. 14). The injectors are verti-
cally mounted into a bored hole in the top of the cyl-
inder head. This bored hole is located between the
intake/exhaust valves. High-pressure connectors (Fig.
15), mounted into the side of the cylinder head, con-
nect each fuel injector to each high-pressure fuel line.
OPERATION
High-pressure fuel is supplied from the injection
pump, through a high-pressure fuel line, into a fuel
rail, through high-pressure lines, through steel con-
nectors and into the solenoid actuated fuel injector.
The ECM actuates the solenoid causing the needle
valve to rise and fuel flows through the spray holes
in the nozzle tip into the combustion chamber.
Each fuel injector is connected to the fuel rail by a
high-pressure fuel line and a steel connector. This
steel connector is positioned into the cylinder head
and sealed with an o-ring. The connector is retained
in the cylinder head by a nut (fitting) that is
threaded into the cylinder head.

The torquing force of this threaded nut (fitting)
provides a sealing pressure between the fuel line con-
nector and the fuel injector.Retaining nut torque
is very critical.If the nut (fitting) is under torqued,
the mating surfaces will not seal and a high-pressure
fuel leak will result. If the fitting is over torqued, the
connector and injector will deform and also cause a
high-pressure fuel leak. This leak will be inside the
cylinder head and will not be visible. The result will
be a possible fuel injector miss-fire and low power, or
a no-start condition.
The fuel injectors use hole type nozzles. High-pres-
sure flows into the side of the injector, the ECM acti-
vates the solenoid causing the injector needle to lift
and fuel to be injected. The clearances in the nozzle
bore are extremely small and any dirt or contami-
nants will cause the injector to stick. Because of this,
it is very important to do a thorough cleaning of any
lines before opening up any fuel system component.
Always cover or cap any open fuel connections before
a fuel system repair is performed.
Each fuel injector connector tube contains an edge
filter that is designed to beak up small contaminants
before entering the fuel injector.The edge filters
are not a substitute for proper cleaning andcovering of all fuel system components during
repair.
The bottom of each fuel injector is sealed to the
cylinder head with a1.5mmthick copper shim (gas-
ket). The correct thickness shim must always be re-
installed after removing an injector.
Fuel pressure in the injector circuit decreases after
injection. The injector needle valve is immediately
closed and fuel flow into the combustion chamber is
stopped. Exhaust gases are prevented from entering
the injector nozzle by the needle valve.
REMOVAL
CAUTION: Refer to Cleaning Fuel System Parts.
Six individual, solenoid actuated high-pressure fuel
injectors are used (Fig. 14). The injectors are verti-
cally mounted into a bored hole in the top of the cyl-
inder head. This bored hole is located between the
intake/exhaust valves. High-pressure connectors (Fig.
15), mounted into the side of the cylinder head, con-
nect each fuel injector to each high-pressure fuel line.
