STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURES - WATER DRAINING
AT FUEL FILTER
Refer to Fuel Filter/Water Separator removal/in-
stallation for procedures.
STANDARD PROCEDURES - CLEANING FUEL
SYSTEM PARTS
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.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - AIR BLEED
A certain amount of air becomes trapped in the
fuel system when fuel system components on the
supply and/or high-pressure side are serviced or
replaced. Primary air bleeding is accomplished using
the electric fuel transfer (lift) pump. If the vehicle
has been allowed to run completely out of fuel, the
fuel injectors must also be bled as the fuel injection
pumpis notself-bleeding (priming).
Servicing or replacing components on the fuel
return side will not require air bleeding.
WARNING: DO NOT BLEED AIR FROM THE FUEL
SYSTEM OF A HOT ENGINE.
(1) Loosen, but do not remove, banjo bolt (test port
fitting) holding low-pressure fuel supply line to side
of fuel injection pump (Fig. 11). Place a shop towel
around banjo fitting to catch excess fuel.
The fuel transfer (lift) pump is self-priming: When
the key is first turned on (without cranking engine),
the pump operates for approximately 2 seconds and
then shuts off. The pump will also operate for up to
25 seconds after the starter is quickly engaged, and
then disengaged without allowing the engine to start.
The pump shuts off immediately if the key is on and
the engine stops running.
(2) Turn key to CRANK position and quickly
release key to ON position before engine starts. Thiswill operate fuel transfer pump for approximately 25
seconds.
(3) If fuel is not present at fuel supply line after
25 seconds, turn key OFF. Repeat previous step until
fuel is exiting at fuel supply line.
(4) Tighten banjo bolt at fuel supply line to 24 N´m
(18 ft. lbs.) torque. Primary air bleeding is now com-
pleted.
(5) Attempt to start engine. If engine will not
start, proceed to following steps.If engine does
start, it may run erratically and be very noisy
for a few minutes. This is a normal condition.
(6)Continue to next step if:
²The vehicle fuel tank has been allowed to run
empty
²The fuel injection pump has been replaced
²High-pressure fuel lines have been replaced
²Vehicle has not been operated after an extended
period
CAUTION: Do not engage the starter motor for more
than 30 seconds at a time. Allow two minutes
between cranking intervals.
(7) Perform previous air bleeding procedure steps
using fuel transfer pump. Be sure fuel is present at
fuel supply line (Fig. 11) before proceeding.

(8) Crank the engine for 30 seconds at a time to
allow air trapped in the injection pump to vent out
the drain manifold.
WARNING: THE FUEL INJECTION PUMP SUPPLIES
EXTREMELY HIGH FUEL PRESSURE TO EACH INDI-
VIDUAL INJECTOR THROUGH THE HIGH-PRES-
SURE LINES. FUEL UNDER THIS AMOUNT OF
PRESSURE CAN PENETRATE THE SKIN AND
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY. WEAR SAFETY GOG-
GLES AND ADEQUATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
AND AVOID CONTACT WITH FUEL SPRAY WHEN
BLEEDING HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINES.
WARNING: ENGINE MAY START WHILE CRANKING
STARTER MOTOR.
Engine may start, may run erratically and be
very noisy for a few minutes. This is a normal
condition.
(9) Thoroughly clean area around injector fittings
where they join injector connector tubes.
(10) Bleed air by loosening high-pressure fuel line
fittings (Fig. 12) at cylinders number 3, 4 and 5.
(11) Continue bleeding injectors until engine runs
smoothly. It may take a few minutes for engine to
run smooth.(12) Tighten fuel line(s) at injector(s) to 38 N´m
(28 ft. lbs.) torque.

FUEL HEATER
DESCRIPTION
The fuel heater assembly is located on the side of
the fuel filter housing (Fig. 18).
The heater/element assembly is equipped with a
temperature sensor (thermostat) that senses fuel
temperature. This sensor is attached to the fuel heat-
er/element assembly.
OPERATION
The fuel heater is used to prevent diesel fuel from
waxing during cold weather operation.
When the temperature is below 45 8 degrees F,
the temperature sensor allows current to flow to the
heater element warming the fuel. When the temper-
ature is above 75 8 degrees F, the sensor stops cur-
rent flow to the heater element.
Battery voltage to operate the fuel heater element
is supplied from the ignition switch and through the
fuel heater relay. Also refer to Fuel Heater Relay.
The fuel heater element and fuel heater relay
are not computer controlled.
The heater element operates on 12 volts, 300 watts
at 0 degrees F.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FUEL HEATER
The fuel heater is used to prevent diesel fuel from
waxing during cold weather operation.
NOTE: The fuel heater element, fuel heater relay
and fuel heater temperature sensor are not con-
trolled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
A malfunctioning fuel heater can cause a wax
build-up in the fuel filter/water separator. Wax
build-up in the filter/separator can cause engine
starting problems and prevent the engine from rev-
ving up. It can also cause blue or white fog-like
exhaust. If the heater is not operating in cold tem-
peratures, the engine may not operate due to fuel
waxing.
The fuel heater assembly is located on the side of
the fuel filter housing (Fig. 19).
The heater assembly is equipped with a built-in
fuel temperature sensor (thermostat) that senses fuel
temperature. When fuel temperature drops below 45
degrees 8 degrees F, the sensor allows current to
flow to the built-in heater element to warm the fuel.
When fuel temperature rises above 75 degrees 8
degrees F, the sensor stops current flow to the heater
element (circuit is open).

FUEL TRANSFER PUMP
DESCRIPTION
The fuel transfer pump (fuel lift pump) is located
on the left-rear side of the engine cylinder block
above the starter motor (Fig. 58). The 12±volt electric
vane-type pump is operated and controlled by the
Engine Control Module (ECM) (Fig. 59).
OPERATION
The purpose of the fuel transfer pump is to supply
(transfer) a low-pressure fuel source:fromthe fuel
tank,throughthe fuel filter/water separator andto
the fuel injection pump. Here, the low-pressure is
raised to a high-pressure by the fuel injection pump
for operation of the high-pressure fuel injectors.
Check valves within the pump, control direction of
fuel flow and prevent fuel bleed-back during engine
shut down.
Normal current flow to the pump is 12 amperes.
With the engine running, the pump has2modes of
operation: Mode 1: 100 percent duty-cycle with a
minimum pressure of 10 psiexcept when the
engine is cranking.Mode 2: 15 percent duty-cycle
with maximum pressure of 7 psiwith the engine
cranking
The 15 percent duty-cycle is used to limit injection
pump inlet pressure until the engine is running.

OVERFLOW VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The overflow valve is located on the side of the
injection pump (Fig. 65). It is also used to connect
the fuel return line (banjo fitting) to the fuel injection
pump.
OPERATION
Fuel volume from the fuel transfer (lift) pump will
always provide more fuel than the fuel injection
pump requires. The overflow valve (a check valve) is
used to route excess fuel through the fuel return line
and back to the fuel tank. Approximately 70% of sup-
plied fuel is returned to the fuel tank. The valve
opens at approximately 97 kPa (14 psi). If the check
valve within the assembly is sticking open, fuel
drainage of the injection pump could cause hard
starting.
If a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been stored
for ªdecreased engine performance due to high injec-
tion pump fuel temperatureº, the overflow valve may
be stuck in closed position.
