(3) Always check the condition of the used oil. This
can give you an indication of engine problems that
might exist.
²Thin, black oil indicates fuel dilution.
²Milky discoloration indicates coolant dilution.
(4) Clean the area around the oil filter head.
Remove the filter (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/LUBRICA-
TION/OIL FILTER - REMOVAL).
(5) Install new oil filter (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/LU-
BRICATION/OIL FILTER - INSTALLATION).
(6) Clean the drain plug and the sealing surface of
the pan. Check the condition of the threads and seal-
ing surface on the oil pan and drain plug.
(7) Install the drain plug. Tighten the plug to 50
N´m (37 ft. lbs.) torque.
(8) Use only High-Quality Multi-Viscosity lubricat-
ing oil in the Cummins Turbo Diesel engine. Choose
the correct oil for the operating conditions (Refer to
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/FLUID TYPES -
DESCRIPTION).
(9) Fill the engine with the correct grade of new oil
(Refer to LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/FLUID
CAPACITIES - SPECIFICATIONS).
(10) Start the engine and operate it at idle for sev-
eral minutes. Check for leaks at the filter and drain
plug.
(11) Stop engine. Wait several minutes to allow the
oil to drain back to the pan and check the level
again.
USED ENGINE OIL DISPOSAL Care should be
exercised when disposing of used engine oil after
it has been drained from a vehicle's engine.
OIL COOLER & LINES
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Clean the sealing surfaces.
Apply 483 kPa (70 psi) air pressure to the element
to check for leaks. If the element leaks, replace the
element.
OIL FILTER
REMOVAL
(1) Clean the area around the oil filter head.
Remove the filter using a 90-95 mm filter wrench.
(2) Clean the gasket surface of the filter head. The
filter canister O-Ring seal can stick on the filter
head. Make sure it is removed.
INSTALLATION
(1) Fill the oil filter element with clean oil before
installation. Use the same type oil that will be used
in the engine.
(2) Apply a light film of lubricating oil to the seal-
ing surface before installing the filter.
CAUTION: Mechanical over-tightening may distort
the threads or damage the filter element seal.
(3) Install the filter until it contacts the sealing
surface of the oil filter adapter. Tighten filter an
additional ó turn.
OIL PAN
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery negative cables.
(2) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(3) Remove transmission and transfer case (if
equipped).
(4) Remove flywheel.
(5) Disconnect starter cables from starter motor.
(6) Remove starter motor (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/STARTING/STARTER MOTOR - REMOVAL)
and transmission adapter plate assembly.
WARNING: HOT OIL CAN CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY.
(7) Drain the engine oil (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/LU-
BRICATION/OIL - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(8) Install the oil pan drain plug with a new seal-
ing washer and tighten to 60 N´m (44 ft. lbs.) torque.
(9) Remove oil pan bolts, break the pan to block
seal, and lower pan slightly and remove oil suction
tube fasteners.
(10) Remove oil pan and suction tube (Fig. 151).
CLEANING
Remove all gasket material from the oil pan and
cylinder block sealing surfaces. Extra effort may be
required around T-joint areas. Clean oil pan and
flush suction tube with a suitable solvent.
INSPECTION
Inspect the oil pan, suction tube, and tube braces
for cracks and damage. Replace any defective compo-
nent. Inspect the oil drain plug and drain hole
threads. Inspect the oil pan sealing surface for
straightness. Repair any minor imperfections with a
ball-peen hammer. Do not attempt to repair an oil
pan by welding.

INSTALLATION
(1) Fill the T-joint between the pan rail/gear hous-
ing and pan rail/rear seal retainer with sealant. Use
MopartSilicone Rubber Adhesive Sealant or equiva-
lent.
(2) Apply a film of MopartSilicone Rubber Adhe-
sive Sealant or equivalent to the oil pan gasket.
Apply sealant only to the side that faces the oil pan.
(3) Place suction tube in oil pan and guide them
into place (Fig. 151). Using a new tube to oil pump
gasket, install and tighten the suction tube bolts by
hand. Starting with the oil pump inlet bolts, tighten
the bolts to 24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.) torque. Tighten the
remaining tube brace bolts to 24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(4) Starting in the center and working outward,
tighten the oil pan bolts to 24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(5) Install the flywheel housing assembly with the
starter motor attached and tighten bolts to 60 N´m
(44 ft. lbs.) torque.
(6) Connect starter motor cables.
(7) Install transmission and transfer case (if
equipped).
(8) Lower vehicle.
(9) Install battery negative cables.
(10) Fill the crankcase with new engine oil.
(11) Start engine and check for leaks. Stop engine,
check oil level, and adjust, if necessary.
OIL PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery negative cables.
(2) Remove the threaded plug, spring and plunger
(Fig. 152). Insert a finger or a seal pick to lift the
plunger from the bore.
NOTE: If the plunger is stuck in the bore, it will be
necessary to remove the filter head.
CLEANING
(1) Clean the regulator spring and plunger with a
suitable solvent and blow dry with compressed air. If
the plunger bore requires cleaning, it is necessary to
remove the oil filter head to avoid getting debris into
the engine.
INSPECTION
Inspect the plunger and plunger bore for cracks
and excessive wear. Polished surfaces are acceptable.
Verify that the plunger moves freely in the bore.
Check the spring for height and load limitations
(Fig. 153) . Replace the spring if out of limits shown
in the figure.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the plunger, spring, and plug as shown
in (Fig. 152). Tighten the plug to 80 N´m (60 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(2) Connect the battery negative cables.
(3) Start the engine and verify that it has oil pres-
sure.

EXHAUST PIPE - 5.9L DIESEL
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery negative cables.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle on a hoist.
(3) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve
lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(4) Remove the exhaust pipe-to-extension pipe
clamp. Separate the exhaust pipe and extension pipe.

support and onto the turbocharger flange (Fig. 11).
(2) Install the exhaust pipe-to-turbocharger elbow
bolts and tighten to 31 N´m (23 ft. lbs.) torque.

CLEANING
CAUTION: Do not use caustic cleaners to clean the
charge air cooler. Damage to the charge air cooler
will result.
NOTE: If internal debris cannot be removed from
the cooler, the charge air cooler MUST be replaced.
(1) If the engine experiences a turbocharger failure
or any other situation where oil or debris get into the
charge air cooler, the charge air cooler must be
cleaned internally.
(2) Position the charge air cooler so the inlet and
outlet tubes are vertical.
(3) Flush the cooler internally with solvent in the
direction opposite of normal air flow.(4) Shake the cooler and lightly tap on the end
tanks with a rubber mallet to dislodge trapped
debris.
(5) Continue flushing until all debris or oil are
removed.
(6) Rinse the cooler with hot soapy water to
remove any remaining solvent.
(7) Rinse thoroughly with clean water and blow
dry with compressed air.
INSPECTION
Visually inspect the charge air cooler for cracks,
holes, or damage. Inspect the tubes, fins, and welds
for tears, breaks, or other damage. Replace the
charge air cooler if damage is found.
Pressure test the charge air cooler, using Charge
Air Cooler Tester Kit #3824556. This kit is available
through CumminstService Products. Instructions
are provided with the kit.

FUEL TANK CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
Diesel Powered Engine:One fuel tank check
valve is used. The check valve is located on the top of
the fuel tank module (Fig. 37). The valve may be ser-
viced separately.
Gasoline Powered Engines:If equipped with a
26 or 34 gallon fuel tank, two check valves are used.
One of the valves is permanently mounted to the top
of fuel tank (Fig. 38). If replacement of this particu-
lar valve is necessary, the fuel tank must be
replaced. The other check valve is located on the top
of the fuel pump module (Fig. 38). This valve may be
serviced separately. If replacement is necessary, refer
to the Removal/Installation section of this group.
If equipped with a 35 gallon fuel tank, two check
valves are used. Both valves are permanently
mounted to the top of fuel tank (Fig. 39). If replace-
ment is necessary, the fuel tank must be replaced.

tors are firmly connected to injectors in the correct
order. Each harness connector is numerically tagged
with the injector number (INJ 1, INJ 2 etc.) of its
corresponding fuel injector and cylinder number.
(18) Verify harness connectors are firmly con-
nected to idle air control (IAC) motor, throttle posi-
tion sensor (TPS) and manifold absolute pressure
(MAP) sensor (Fig. 6).(19) Verify that wire harness connector is firmly
connected to the engine coolant temperature sensor
(Fig. 8).
