3 0-2 LPG SYSTEM PRINCIPLE LPG SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE TYPE The LPG in the liquid state taken out from the cylinder passes the filter and shutoff valve in the engine room for filtration of foreign matters, and enters the regulator. The LPG subject to pressure reduction by the regulator changes to the gaseous state and is taken into the engine via the carburetor. As the heat source for gasification of LPG, the warm water after cooling the engine is led to the regulator. The fuel system comprises liquid withdrawal type fuel container, hydrostatic pressure relief valve, fuel filter, mechanically operated valve, vaporizer-regulator, carburetor, and interconnecting LP-Gas fuel hose. The fuel line is routed through manual shut-off-valve on the fuel container, through quick-connect coupling on flexible fuel line, and through fuel filter to mechanically operated shut-off-valve. The mechanically operated shutoff valve is connected in series with the engine vacuum system. The shut-off-valve is energized only when the engine develops vacuum pressure by cranking. When energized, the mechanically operated shutoff valve permits the fuel to flow through the vaporizer regulator to the carburetor. The vaporizer-regulator is connected to the engine coolant system so that the coolant is circulated around the assembly to assist in fuel vaporization. Tank bracket which horizontally mounts 33-1/2 LB capacity Listed LP-Gas container (STD) for industrial truck is mounted on the pillars above counterweight. The tank is secured by bracket with a clamping strap. Pin secured to the container bracket to assure positive location of the fuel container.

4 0-3 ABBREVIATIONS GENERAL RULES FOR SERVICING WORK PREPARATION BEFORE DISASSEMBLY 1 2 Prepare mechanic tools, necessary measuring instruments and SST before starting operation. When disassembling a complicated assembly, put punch or matching marks at places not affecting the function to facilitate reassembly operation. When repairing an electrical system, start operation after disconnecting the cable from the battery negative terminal. INSPECTION DURING DISASSEMBLY 1 Each time parts is removed, check the parts installed state, deformation, damage, roughening state and scratching. ORDERLY ARRANGEMENT OF DISASSEMBLED PARTS 1 Disassembled parts shall be arranged orderly. Distinguish the parts to be replaced from the parts to be reused. CLEANING OF DISASSEMBLED PARTS 1 Parts to be reused shall be cleaned and washed thoroughly. INSPECTION AND MEASUREMENT 1 Detailed inspection and measurement shall be carried out as required for parts to be reused. INSTALLATION Install good parts according to the correct procedure and observing the determined standards (tightening torques, adjustment values, etc.) Always use genuine parts for replacement of existing parts. Always use new packings, gaskets and cotter pins because they are not meant for reuse. Coat sealant on gaskets depending on the places, coat oil on the sliding contact places, coat oil or grease at specified places, and coat MP grease on oil seal lips before reassembly. ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATION CHECK 1 Adjust to the service standard values by using gages, a multimeter, etc.

5 0-4 GENERAL RULES FOR LPG SYSTEM REPAIR Due to its high pressure, it can be said that LPG has a tendency to be more leaky. Should LPG once leak however, it turns into gaseous state, and expanding 250 times greater, settling in low spot as 1.5 heavier than air (100% LPG). Any flame or spark could cause a fire or explosion that could cause serious injury. (Ignition temperature 481 (897 F) for 100% LPG.) Utmost care therefore should be exercised for ventilation whenever the repair work is processed Before disconnecting any part of the engine fuel system of LP gas-powered trucks, close LP tank valve and run engine until fuel in system is depleted and engine stops. If the engine will not run, close LP tank valve and vent fuel slowly in a nonhazardous area. Handle LP gas cylinder with care. Physical damage such as dents, scrapes, or gouges may dangerously weaken the tank and make it unsafe for use. Whenever the LPG truck is unused, LPG tank valve should be closed. The same is true when transporting the trucks by ship or container. Do not stop or park LPG truck in a place with such a fire source as lit cigarette, match flame, lighter flame, stove, gas burner, electric heater, electric equipment (motor, etc.), or bonfire. Avoid a place exposed to direct sunlight as much as possible since LPG temperature rises accompanied by gas pressure rise. Do not operate an LPG truck in places involving any fire source. Anything ignitable must put away. When operating, inspecting or repairing an LPG truck, put a NO Fire notice board to prevent anybody from approaching with a fire source. When repairing an LPG truck, pull the ignition key off to prevent anybody from operating the faulty truck without knowing it. For gas leakage check, always use a gas leak measuring device (if available), soap water and pressure meter for the regulator. When performing gas leakage check at night, turn on a work light outdoors before approaching the truck for inspection (because a spark by switching is apprehended). If gas is leaking, check no fire source and provide good ventilation. LPG cylinders shall be stored especially carefully in a place without a fire source and installed with a gas leak detector and alarm. Impurities in the fuel and tank rust will be accumulated in the LPG device through long period of operation. Device disorder may result from various reasons. In such a case, the LPG device requires inspection, repair and cleaning. The regulator, especially, shall disassembled and reassembled with sufficient attention paid to the adjustment and airtightness. Always use sealant LOCK TITE 567 on the taper threaded portion of each fitting (union, valve, etc.). Do not smear the leading two threads at the tip end with sealant. Battery, wiring or any electric equipment should not be shorted. It should be confirmed that there is no leak gas staying in atmosphere when the engine is to start.

7 1-2 COMPONENTS IN BRIEF (LPG SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE TYPE) COMPONENT PARTS

8 AIR VALVE FUNCTION The advantages offered by the air valve system include the fact that it operates on the most reliable signal available for detecting engine operation - pressure. Operation pressure is determined by the main link spring (A) that closes the air valve (B). When air valve downflow vacuum pressure (C) is about 6 inch water column (11.2 mmhg)* or greater, the air valve opens. The vacuum pressure from the air valve downflow draws fuel through the regulator fuel passage (D), and causes the shut off valve to activate via hose (a). *1.37 kpa (0.014) kg/cm 2 ) [0.2 psi] When the engine is off, the tip of the air valve and the rubber sheet in the carburetor act to shut off the LP gas flow. Thus, the flow of gas is cut in three places, including the regulator and shut off valve. In other words, each component like the shut-off valve, the carburetor and the regulator has the safety function so as not to let out the gas in case of other parts failure in the system such as hose disconnection, engine stop, having self sealing function. 1-3 LPG System on GM engine (LPG) Exclusive)

9 1-4 LPG CONTAINER BRACKET AND CONTAINER 1. LPG Container Bracket. Two years are welded on plates of the steel pipe ends. One for rotating, the bracket is fixed to the overhead guard with hinge and the other for locking the bracket to the frame, is fixed to the stay, welded to the overhead guard. Remarks: The tank and hose shown in the illustrations on this page are none-standard parts. Steel semicircular strap with toggle latch strap is jointed to hinge that is welded by the lower steel band. The steel band is welded on the steel pipes. Elastic rubber bands are used to provide the tank with secure grip. The engine hood cannot be opened without swinging out the bracket of LP-gas container bracket. The tank bracket is provided with a stud that determine the tank position in circumferential direction. The tank is provided with a match hole for position setting on the bracket. Caution: Take care for any improper joint, such as for a latch, hinge, and band that causes instability of the tank.

10 2. LPG Container. The LPG Container is fixed on the LPG bracket tightly with the rubber bands and the metal strap provided with latches on the ends. And UL approved containers are adopted. Since the explosive gas is used, care must be used before starting inspection and the repair, such as good ventilation, and separation from ignitable source. Caution: (1) Before disconnecting any part of the engine fuel system of LP gas-powered trucks, close LP tank valve and run engine until fuel in system is depleted* and engine stops. If the engine will not run, close LP tank valve and vent fuel slowly in a nonhazardous area. * Even the empty tank, it is still inflamable and explosive. (2) Handle LP gas cylinders with care. Physical damage such as dents, scrapes, or gouges may dangerously weaken the tank and make it unsafe for use. * LPG tank is also called LPG container or LPG cylinder. 1-5

11 1-6 SPECIFICATION *1 Tank inside pressure when filled full with liquid LP gas. *2 Test pressure on Manufacturing. *3 When filled with liquid LP gas up to the Max. gauge (up to 80% Limiter tube), LP gas weight will be approx kg (33.5 lbs) (STD model) and 9.1 kg (20 lbs) (Option). EQUIPMENTS 1 Service valve 2 Manual coupling 3 High pressure hose 4 Tank relief valve 5 Sight gauge 6 Fill valve 7 Relief valve (See Page 1-8)

12 Service valve The service valve is the outlet for fuel. When use, fully open the valve. When unuse, close tight with a hand. Quick coupling To ease the tank removal for charge, the quick coupling (manually operable thread secured coupling) is used on the end of the high pressure hose at the tank side. When the coupling is disconnected, LP gas releasing from the tank is stopped by the valve in the quick coupling. On every occasion however, care should be exercised to fasten the tank service valve. Caution: l Close the tank service valve tight when unused. l The manual coupling must be tightened fully till reaching to the end, otherwise gas leaks. l Wear glove when handling the LPG tank to protect skin from freezing. l The tank is too heavy to mount or dismount by one person, i.e. Tare weight 16.3 kg (36 lb) plus Gas weight Max kg (33.5 lb), makes 31.5 kg (69.5 lb) for the STD tank. Ask assistance, or use proper lifting means. 3 High pressure hose Caution: Since the hose is moved about every time the engine hood is opened, care should be used for sustaining damage Tank relief valve This is the pressure relief valve when the gas is filled full. The gas should be filled until the liquid gas leaks out there. Leaked gas should be wiped off, and the vinyl cap should be put on. Sight gauge Remaining gas volume in the tank can be checked by the gauge. The volume is distinguished by color zone, and pressure figures. When the needle enters in the empty zone on the gauge, the tank should be refilled. Fill valve The valve for filling the gas. Do not tamper with it.

13 1-8 Relief valve The relief valve is installed between the tank and the filter w/ shut-off-valve. It has only an emergency function to protect the LPG tank from explosion. If the tank should undergo extreme high heat and inner pressure would rise to hazardous extent, it relieve excess pressures. The relief valve was preset safety device, don t disassemble. FILTER AND SHUT OFF VALVE IMPCO VFF 30 filter and shut-off-valve (UL approved) is adopted. The shut-off-valve is operated by negative pressure gener-

14 1-9 WORKING PRINCIPLE The leaf spring presses the valve to the seas. When negative pressure arises by engine running, a slight negative pressure at 493 Pa (3.7 mmhg) [2 inaq] starts to open the diaphragm and the fuel comes through the filter. (The leaf spring presses the valve to the seat.) When negative pressure arises, the diaphragm presses the valve to open as overcoming the leaf spring force. REGULATOR The regulator is an IMPCO model K (UL-approved). The liquid fuel passing from the tank through the filter and shut off valve are depressurized in two stages to a point slightly lower than atmospheric pressure. When the engine is cranking to start or in operation, the vacuum generated in the fuel passage activates the regulator. Liquid propane is gasified by depressurizing it from its approximately 1.65 MPa (16.88 kg/cm 2 ) [240 psi] pressure in the tank to atmospheric pressure. Engine coolant is circulated through a warm water circuit in the regulator to assist in gasification. When the engine is stopped, fuel circulation is stopped by the secondary

15 1-10 CARBURETOR FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE (GM) All but one model of the IMPCO air valve carburetors use diaphragms of fiberglass and synthetic rubber or silicone material. Model 50 uses a metal piston with a sealing ring in place of a diaphragm for the purpose of reducing the carburetor size for small engines. The principle applied is the same for both. Cranking the engine lowers pressure in shaded area as piston descends. Through passages (P) in the air valve, lowered pressure is communicated to upper side of diaphragm (D). As a result, atmospheric pressure pushing upward on the diaphragm lifts it against the downward pressure of the metering spring (S). Approximately 1.37 kpa (0.014 kg/cm 2 ) [0.2 psi] 1495 Pa W.C. (152.4 mm W.C.) [6 in W.C.] of pressure is required to lift the air valve off its seat. Approximately 3.45 kpa (0.035 kg/cm 2 ) [0.5 psi]; mm W.C. (13.8 in W.C.) lifts the valve to the top of its travel in full open position. Lowered pressure communicated to the top of the diaphragm varies with engine speed and position of throttle valve opening (T). The air valve assembly measures the air flow into the engine by moving precisely in response to the demands of the engine and throttle valve position. The controlled pressure drop of 1.37 ~ 3.45 kpa (0.014 ~ kg/cm 2 ) [0.2 to 0.5 psi] (6" ~ 13.8" W.C.) set up by the metering spring provides the signal or force necessary to draw fuel into the air stream within the carburetor. The gas metering valve (V) is attached to the air valve assembly and is shaped to admit the correct amount of fuel from the gas jet to mix with incoming air at any opening of the air valve. 1. Idle Air Bypass Adjustment (I) The total volume of air and fuel passing the closed throttle at idle is constant. The idle adjustment bypasses a portion of incoming air around the air valve opening. As the idle adjustment is opened, the air valve partially closes, thereby closing the gas metering valve and leaning the idle air-fuel mixture. 2. Power Mixture Adjustment (A) Controls mixtures when gas metering valve is withdrawn from the jet. This adjustment is effective only when the engine approaches full-load condition and can be set only with the engine loaded, at or close to its rated RPM limit. Mixtures between idle and full-load conditions are controlled by the gas metering valve shape. The gas metering valve is shaped to produce lean mixtures at light loads and increasingly rich mixtures at heavier loads and higher engine speeds. The shape of the gas valve is designed for optimum mixtures for the mid-size engine between the largest and smallest cubic inch displacement upon which the carburetor will be installed.

16 As compared with the carburetor for gasoline trucks, the structure is simple and almost no trouble occurs. As the tar type substance or dust in the fuel may adhere in the carburetor to cause engine performance degradation, periodic overhaul is recommended Y GM RELATION BETWEEN EACH DEVICE AND PIPING

(2) Check the negative pressure orifice for clogging. If clogged, clean. Assembly: When installing the air-gas valve assembly, the ridge portion should be directed to the fuel inlet side.

51 5-11 CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT The power adjuster (C) of the carburetor shown below is for adjustment of the fuel concentration at full throttle. Since it has been adjusted for 100% propane used in the United States, do not tamper with the power adjuster. Make idling adjustment as required by means of (A) and (B) shown in the figure below. Idling Adjustment As the idling speed and CO concentration at idle in the LPG vehicle greatly influence the idling stability, engine tenacity and startability, they shall be set to the standard levels. Standards Idling speed (rpm): 750 CO (%): 2 ~ Adjustment Procedure Adjusting Parts Part Name Purpose Increase/decrease by counterclockwise rotation (A) Idle adjusting Fuel flow Decrease screw rate adjustment (B) Throttle Air fuel mixture Decrease adjusting screw flow rate adjustment (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) Warm up the engine. Adjust to the standard idling speed by turning (B). (If the standard speed is not attained, make adjustment after turning (A).) Slowly turn (A) clockwise or counterclockwise to find the area where the speed is maximized. Adjust to the standard idling speed by turning (B). Repeat steps (3) and (4) to turn (A) and determine the opening of (B) where the highest speed equals the standard speed. Slowly turn (A) counterclockwise to find the opening where the speed starts to drop, and turn it clockwise by 45 from the opening. The standard idling speed and CO concentration 2 ~ 3% are obtained in this state.

52 6-2 LPG SYSTEM PIPING (PROTECTION FROM GAS LEAKAGE) GENERAL When conducting proper LP-gas leakage test on the high pressure LP-gas fuel system employing soap and water solution or equivalent as a detective means, it is required that there shall be no leakage while the system is under gas pressures of not less than 620 kpa (6.4 kg/cm 2 ) [90 psi]. Test equipments and facility should be used for the gas leakage test. If you are obliged to make the test where no such provisions are available, the test can be performed by opening the LPG tank outlet valve and running the engine. In this method however, it is difficult to ascertain whether gas will leak later, especially when ambient temperature is low, since gas (vapour) pressures required for the test can not be obtained. It is also difficult when the engine fails to start even several repair attempts have been done. Good quality LPG is essential, too. If propane percentage is lower, vapour pressure becomes lower. Relation between temperature, propane percentage and vapour pressures is as shown: If 100% propane is used, vapour pressure exceeds 620 kpa (6.4 kg/cm 2 ) [90 psi] when temperature reaches over 15 C (59 F).

53 6-3 COMPONENT PARTS

54 6-4 GAS LEAKAGE TEST Essential points will be explained in accordance with the number shown in the illustration. POINTS IN COMMON 1. Inspect all the connection between the quick coupling 1 and the regulator 5 with soap and water solution under gas pressures of not less than 0.62 MPa (6.4 kg/cm 2 ) [90 psi]. 2. Installation Procedure for LPG fitting at Tapered Port. Where tapered thread fittings are used for the elbow, straight fittings as the union, follow the next steps: (1) Inspect to ensure that both mating parts are free of burrs, nicks or scratches, and remove all dirt and debris such as old sealant, grease, oil and metallic particles from the thread portion.

55 (2) Apply Loctite PST pipe sealant 567 around male thread so that applying width is more than 1/3 of thread length. Applying range starts from 3rd thread of tapered screw end. (3) Tighten external thread by 29.4 N m ± 4.9 N m (300 ± 50 kgf-cm) [21.71 ± 3.62 ft-lb]. However, tightening torque of the elbows whose installing directions are specified should be 24.5 kpa (250 kg-cm) [18.09 ft-lb] or more. (4) After assembly, leave it for 3 hours or more to dry sealant. Caution: This procedure must be strictly followed whenever an LPG fitting is found to be leaking or requires loosening or disassembly and assembly for any reason. Failure to follow this procedure may result in gas leakage which could create the potential for serious injury from fire or explosion. 6-5 ESSENTIAL POINTS ON ROUTE (Number in circle corresponds to a drawing on page 6-4.) LPG container. High pressure hose. Tighten the quick coupling by a hand to the end of the screw, and check it for leakage, including the fitting and the high pressure hose. For the high pressure hose, check not only the joint portion, but also the rim portion of the crimped metal. The connection between the coupling and the elbow is taper threads. (See point in former paragraph.) ƒ Junction All the connections to the junction block use taper thread, such as the elbow, the relief valve and the fitting. (See point in former paragraph.)

56 6-6 Note: Don t disassemble the relief valve, except for the removal as a unit from the taper threads, since it was preset for the safety precaution. Where the gas pressures of 620 kpa (6.4 kg/cm 2 ) [90 psi] are not available, the leak can be checked, though still incomplete due to the difference of gas and air, in the method, as shown. The connection between the high pressure hose and the elbow, the tightening torque should be: T = ~ N m (200 ~ 250 kgf-cm) [14.47 ~ ft-lb]... for Brass* T = ~ N m (280 ~ 310 kgf-cm) [20.26 ~ ft-lb]... for Steel* * There are two types of the hose fitting inner valve, i.e. Brass and Steel. The connection of the elbow to the shut-off-valve uses the taper threads. (See points in former paragraph.)

57 6-7 The connection to the shut off valve for the fuel warning switch (Option). The connection between the shut off valve and elbow, the elbow and the T-fitting, and the T-fitting and the switch use taper threads. (See points in former paragraph.)

58 6-8 The gas leakage check between the shut-off valve and the regulator with soap water. When checking, leakage A, insert a thin rod through the center hole of the shut-off valve to keep pushing the diaphragm. If the diaphragm is not pushed to open the shutoff-valve, the pressure is not applied to the union A when the engine at cease.

59 7-2 TROUBLE SHOOTING * Carburetor and air governor mount nuts tightening torque: T = 10.2 ~ 15.3 N m (1.040 ~ kgf-cm) [7.524 ~ ft-lb]
