2 Fuel Injection System Low Pressure Leak Test Two-Filter Fuel System WARNING: PRESSURIZED AIR AND FLYING PARTICLES To avoid injury to eye or face, wear a face shield or goggles when conducting a pressure test. 13. Using J-48710 tool, pressurize the fuel system to 517 kpa (75 psi) for four minutes. 14. Close the ball valve and disconnect the air supply from J-48710 tool. NOTE: The fuel compensation pressure will increase after the Start button has been pressed. NOTE: The fuel compensation pressure sensor reads in absolute pressure, therefore the pressure should read about 100 kpa (14.5 psi) (depending on elevation) more than the fuel pressure gauge on the J-48710 tool. The fuel compensation sensor will read close to 620 kpa (90 psi) of pressure when the J-48710 tool is reading 517 kpa (75 psi). 15. Press the Start button on DDDL. 6 All information subject to change without notice. Copyright 2012 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION 10 67-12

4 Alternative Contrast Spray Method for Determining a Leak Path - Two-Filter Fuel System 4 Alternative Contrast Spray Method for Determining a Leak Path - Two- Filter Fuel System Contrast spray method: 1. Completely wash, clean and dry the entire fuel system side of the engine. 2. Spray all external fuel lines, fittings, hoses, plugs, adaptors, fuel filter module and high pressure fuel pump with contrast spray. NOTE: Contrast spray will change color when the fuel leak contacts the spray. 3. Start the engine and inspect for external seepage of fuel. a. If there is no external leak, perform the Alternative Fuel Dye Method for Determining a Leak Path. b. If there is a leak, repair as necessary. 16 All information subject to change without notice.

10 67-12 5 Alternative Fuel Dye Method for Determining a Leak Path - Two-Filter Fuel System Table 2. Tool Number Service Tools Used in the Procedure J-48710 Air Pressure Test, Fuel System J-48708 Fuel Flow W470589009800 Fuel dye method: Cam Gear Cover DD13/DD15 Description Install fuel test bottle kit (J-48708). Fill one container with ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel and add fuel dye to the fuel in the bottle per fuel dye manufacturer s recommendation. Connect the hoses to the fitting on the top of the cap. This will isolate the engine from the chassis fuel system. 1. Prime the fuel system. Refer to section "Priming the Fuel System Using ESOC 350 Fuel Priming Pump - Two-Filter System". NOTE: It will take a few minutes for the dye in the test bottle to make its way into the high pressure fuel system and up to the fuel injectors. 2. Remove the rocker cover. Refer to section "Removal of the Rocker Cover" and install tool W470589009800 Cam Gear Cover onto the rear of the cam frame. WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY To avoid injury before starting and running the engine, ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface, parking brake is set, and the wheels are blocked. 3. Start the engine and allow it to reach an operating temperature of 60 C (140 F). 4. Run the engine at 900 rpm. 5. Using a black light, inspect the fuel injector O-rings (1) and high pressure fuel injector line O-rings (2) for signs of leakage. Are any leaks coming from the fuel injectors or high pressure injector lines? All information subject to change without notice. 17 10 67-12 Copyright 2012 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION
5 Alternative Fuel Dye Method for Determining a Leak Path - Two-Filter Fuel System a. Yes; replace the leaking fuel injector O-rings or leaking high pressure injector line(s). b. No; Go to step 6. 6. Using a black light, inspect the entire high pressure system for leaks. Repair as necessary. If no leaks are found, repressurize the system with tool J-48710 and inspect the fuel filter module, low pressure fuel lines and low pressure fuel pump for leaks. Repair as necessary. 18 All information subject to change without notice. Copyright 2012 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION 10 67-12
