REMOVAL
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) Disconnect both negative battery cables at both
batteries. Cover and isolate ends of both cables.
(2) Remove intake manifold air intake tube (above
injection pump) and its rubber connector hose (Fig.
7).
(3) Remove accessory drive belt.
(4) Thoroughly clean the rear of injection pump,
and attachment points for its 3 fuel lines (Fig. 8).
Also clean the opposite ends of these same 3 lines at
their attachment points.
(5) Disconnect Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) electri-
cal connector at rear of injection pump (Fig. 9).
CAUTION: Whenever a fuel line fitting is connected
to a secondary fitting, always use a back-up wrench
on the secondary fitting. Do not allow the second-
ary fitting to rotate.
(6) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-fuel pres-
sure limiting valve).
(7) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-fuel rail).
Use back-up wrench on fitting at fuel pump.
(8) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-fuel filter
housing).
(9) Remove fuel pump drive gear access cover
(plate) with a 3/8º drive ratchet. Plate is threaded to
timing gear cover (Fig. 10).
(10) Remove fuel pump drive gear mounting nut
and washer.
(11) Attach C3428B, or L4407A (or equivalent)
gear puller (Fig. 11) to pump drive gear with 2 bolts,
and separate gear from pump (a keyway is not used
on this particular injection pump). Leave drive gear
hanging loose within timing gear cover.
(12) Remove 3 injection pump mounting nuts (Fig.
12), and remove pump from engine.

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.

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

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.

CASCADE OVERFLOW VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The cascade overflow valve is located on the top/
rear side of the fuel injection pump (Fig. 25).
OPERATION
When the fuel control actuator (FCA) is opened,
the maximum amount of fuel is being delivered to
the fuel injection pump. The cascade valve regulates
how much excess fuel is used for lubrication of the
injection pump, and is also used to route excess fuel
through the drain circuit and back into the fuel tank.
REMOVAL
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
The cascade overflow valve is not serviced sepa-
rately.
WATER IN FUEL SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor is located on the
side of the fuel filter/water separator canister (Fig.
26).
OPERATION
The sensor sends an input to the Engine Control
Module (ECM) when it senses water in the fuel filter/
water separator. As the water level in the filter/sep-
arator increases, the resistance across the WIF
sensor decreases. This decrease in resistance is sent
as a signal to the ECM and compared to a high
water standard value. Once the value reaches 30 to
40 kilohms, the ECM will activate the water-in-fuel
warning lamp through CCD bus circuits. This all
takes place when the ignition key is initially put in
the ON position. The ECM continues to monitor the
input while the engine is running.
REMOVAL
The Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor is located at the
side of fuel filter/water separator canister. Refer to
Fuel Filter/Water Separator Removal/Installation for
WIF sensor removal/installation procedures.
