F333392 Force PLATE, SIDE

Keep hands clear of fan and belts while engine is running.
Making contact with a running engine can cause burns from hot parts and can cause injury from rotating parts.When working on an engine that is running, avoid contact with hot parts and rotating parts.

Air Inlet Pressure Specifications(1)
Item Type Maximum Vacuum Pressure
Air Inlet Pressure Compare the inlet manifold pressure to the pressure given in the TMI
(1) Test location is anywhere on the air inlet pipe between the air filter and the turbochargerIntroduction
Use the following procedure to measure the inlet manifold pressure.The efficiency of an engine can be checked by comparing the pressure in the inlet manifold with the information given in the Technical Marketing Information (TMI). This inlet manifold pressure test is used when there is a decrease of horsepower from the engine, with no sign of a problem with the engine.The correct pressure for the inlet manifold is listed in the TMI. The correct pressure is also on the Fuel Setting and the related Service Information System. Development of this information is performed under the following conditions:
99 kPa (29.7 in Hg) dry barometric pressure
29 °C (85 °F) outside air temperature
35 API rated fuelOn a turbocharged, aftercooled engine, a change in the fuel rating will change the horsepower. A change in the fuel rating will change the inlet manifold pressure. If the fuel is rated above 35 API, the inlet manifold pressure can be less than the pressure given in the TMI. The pressure will also be less than the pressure that is listed on the Fuel Setting and the Related Service Information System. If the fuel is rated below 35 API, the inlet manifold pressure can be more than the pressure listed in the TMI. The pressure will also be more than the pressure that is listed on the Fuel Setting and the Related Service Information System.References

(1) This sensor must be purchased separately, it is not included in the 198-4240 Digital Pressure Indicator Gp
(2) This sensor can only be used on large diameter pressure taps like 6V-3965 Fitting.Refer to Special Instruction, SEHS8907, "Using the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group" for the instructions that are needed to use the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group. Refer to Operation Manual, NEHS0818, "Using the 198-4240 Pressure Indicator Tool Gp" for the instructions that are needed to use the 198-4240 Pressure Indicator Tool Gp.Test Preparation
Open or remove, if applicable, the appropriate covers to access the parts of the engine needed to complete this procedure.Note: Ensure that the air inlet and the exhaust are not restricted when you are checking the inlet manifold pressure.Test Procedures
Remove the plug from the air inlet elbow.
Connect the 198-4240 Digital Pressure Indicator Gp to the air inlet elbow at the pressure test location.
Record the value.
Compare the value that was recorded in Step 3 to the pressure that is given in the TMI.
