TURBOCHARGER
DESCRIPTION
The turbocharger is an exhaust-driven super-
charger which increases the pressure and density of
the air entering the engine. With the increase of air
entering the engine, more fuel can be injected into
the cylinders, which creates more power during com-
bustion.
The turbocharger assembly consists of four (4)
major component systems (Fig. 14) (Fig. 15) :²Turbine section
²Compressor section
²Bearing housing
²Wastegate

TURBOCHARGER SYSTEM (Continued)

OPERATION
Exhaust gas pressure and energy drive the tur-
bine, which in turn drives a centrifugal compressor
that compresses the inlet air, and forces the air into
the engine through the charge air cooler and plumb-
ing. Since heat is a by-product of this compression,
the air must pass through a charge air cooler to cool
the incoming air and maintain power and efficiency.
Increasing air flow to the engine provides:
²Improved engine performance
²Lower exhaust smoke density
²Improved operating economy
²Altitude compensation
²Noise reduction.
The turbocharger also uses a wastegate (Fig. 16),
which regulates intake manifold air pressure and
prevents over boosting at high engine speeds. When
the wastegate valve is closed, all of the exhaust gases
flow through the turbine wheel. As the intake mani-
fold pressure increases, the wastegate actuator opens
the valve, diverting some of the exhaust gases away
from the turbine wheel. This limits turbine shaft
speed and air output from the impeller.
The turbocharger is lubricated by engine oil that is
pressurized, cooled, and filtered. The oil is delivered
to the turbocharger by a supply line that is tapped
into the oil filter head. The oil travels into the bear-
ing housing, where it lubricates the shaft and bear-
ings (Fig. 17). A return pipe at the bottom of the
bearing housing, routes the engine oil back to the
crankcase.
The most common turbocharger failure is bearing
failure related to repeated hot shutdowns with inad-
equate ªcool-downº periods. A sudden engine shut
down after prolonged operation will result in the
transfer of heat from the turbine section of the tur-
bocharger to the bearing housing. This causes the oil
to overheat and break down, which causes bearing
and shaft damage the next time the vehicle is
started.
Letting the engine idle after extended operation
allows the turbine housing to cool to normal operat-
ing temperature. The following chart should be used
as a guide in determining the amount of engine idle
time required to sufficiently cool down the turbo-
charger before shut down, depending upon the type
of driving and the amount of cargo.

(9) Remove the turbocharger and gasket from the
exhaust manifold.
(10) If the turbocharger is not to be installed
immediately, cover the opening to prevent material
from entering into the manifold.
(11) If replacing the turbocharger, transfer the tur-
bocharger oil supply fitting to the new assembly.
Tighten fitting to 36 N´m (27 ft. lbs.).
(12) Clean and inspect the sealing surface.
CAUTION: The turbocharger is only serviced as an
assembly. Do not attempt to repair the turbocharger
as turbocharger and/or engine damage can result.
CLEANING
WARNING: To prevent damage or personal injury,
do not use a combustable cleaner to clean the tur-
bocharger.
Clean the turbocharger and exhaust manifold
mounting surfaces with a suitable scraper.
INSPECTION
Visually inspect the turbocharger and exhaust
manifold gasket surfaces. Replace stripped or eroded
mounting studs.
(1) Visually inspect the turbocharger for cracks.
The following cracks are NOT acceptable:
²Cracks in the turbine and compressor housing
that go completely through.
²Cracks in the mounting flange that are longer
than 15 mm (0.6 in.).
²Cracks in the mounting flange that intersect
bolt through-holes.
²Two (2) Cracks in the mounting flange that are
closer than 6.4 mm (0.25 in.) together.
(2) Visually inspect the impeller and compressor
wheel fins for nicks, cracks, or chips. Note: Some
impellers may have a factory placed paint mark
which, after normal operation, appears to be a crack.
Remove this mark with a suitable solvent to verify
that it is not a crack.
(3) Visually inspect the turbocharger compressor
housing for an impeller rubbing condition (Fig. 20).
Replace the turbocharger if the condition exists.
(4) Measure the turbocharger axial end play:
(a) Install a dial indicator as shown in (Fig. 21).
Zero the indicator at one end of travel.
(b) Move the impeller shaft fore and aft and
record the measurement. Allowable end play is
0.026 mm (0.0001 in.) MIN. and 0.127 mm (0.005
in.) MAX. If the recorded measurement falls out-
side these parameters, replace the turbocharger
assembly.(5) Measure the turbocharger bearing radial clear-
ance:
(a) Insert a narrow blade or wire style feeler
gauge between the compressor wheel and the hous-
ing (Fig. 22).
(b) Gently push the compressor wheel toward
the housing and record the clearance.
(c) With the feeler gauge in the same location,
gently push the compressor wheel away from the
housing and again record the clearance.
(d) Subtract the smaller clearance from the
larger clearance. This is the radial bearing clear-
ance.
(e) Allowable radial bearing clearance is 0.33
mm (0.013 in.) MIN. and 0.50 mm (0.020 in.) MAX.
If the recorded measurement falls outside these
specifications, replace the turbocharger assembly.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the turbocharger. Apply anti-seize to the
studs and then tighten the turbocharger mounting
nuts to 43 N´m (32 ft. lbs.) torque.

CHARGE AIR COOLER AND
PLUMBING
DESCRIPTION
The charge air system (Fig. 23) consists of the
charge air cooler piping, charge air cooler and intake
air grid heater.The charge air cooler is a heat exchanger that uses
air flow from vehicle motion to dissipate heat from
the intake air. As the turbocharger increases air
pressure, the air temperature increases. Lowering
the intake air temperature increases engine effi-
ciency and power.
OPERATION
Intake air is drawn through the air cleaner and
into the turbocharger compressor housing. Pressur-
ized air from the turbocharger then flows forward
through the charge air cooler located in front of the
radiator. From the charge air cooler the air flows
back into the intake manifold.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CHARGE AIR
COOLER SYSTEM - LEAKS
Low turbocharger boost pressure and low engine
performance can be caused by leaks in the charge air
cooler or plumbing. Fuel staining on the exhaust
manifold can also be an indication that there are
leaks in the air system.The following procedure out-
lines how to check for leaks in the charge air cooler
system.
(1) Loosen clamp and remove air inlet hose from
turbocharger.
(2) Insert Special Tool 9022 Adapter into the tur-
bocharger inlet. Tighten tool clamp to 8 N´m (72 in.
lbs.).

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.
