12911-82010 Suzuki VALVE, INTAKE

High Fuel Pressure
Excessive fuel pressure can cause fuel filter gaskets to rupture. The following conditions can cause high fuel pressure:
Plugged orifices in the fuel pressure regulating valve
Stuck fuel pressure regulating valve in the fuel transfer pump
Pinched fuel return lineChecking Fuel Pressure

1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group
Refer to Special Instruction, SEHS8907, "Using The 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group".
Fuel leaked or spilled onto hot surfaces or electrical components can cause a fire. Clean up fuel spills immediately.
Keep all parts clean from contaminants.Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids.Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Caterpillar Dealer Service Tool Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on Caterpillar products.Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.
Use the following procedure to measure the fuel pressure after the secondary filter:Note: Fuel pressure readings near the fuel supply manifold have pressure spikes. The pressure spikes are caused by excess fuel that is returning to the fuel system from the injectors. Excessive needle movement at the gauge may be present. Connect the gauge with a section of suitable hose. The air in the hose absorbs the spikes. This gives an average reading and a steady needle. Keep the gauge above the measuring point.

(1) Plug Install the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group into port (1).During both normal operating conditions and load conditions, the fuel pressure should register the following range:
455 to 579 kPa (66 to 84 psi)At low idle, the fuel pressure at the fuel filter's inlet should be at the following amount:
400 to 434 kPa (58 to 63 psi)The fuel pressure to the fuel gallery should be the same amount, if you subtract the change in pressure (delta P) across the filter. With a new filter, the pressure drop across the fuel filter typically registers the following amount:
35 kPa (5 psi)As deposits collect on a fuel filter, the pressure differential will increase. Engine misfire may occur if the fuel pressure in the fuel gallery decreases to approximately 69 kPa (10 psi).The fuel pressure regulator valve is mounted at the fuel return port at the rear of the fuel gallery in the cylinder head. The fuel pressure regulating valve maintains fuel pressure at low engine rpm. The regulating valve also contains a check valve that is spring loaded. The check valve that is spring loaded prevents the fuel from draining from the fuel gallery back to the fuel tank after engine shutdown.Unit Injector Hydraulic Pump (Test)
Injection Actuation Pressure (Test)
The test for injection actuation pressure is used in order to check for the following conditions:
The unit injector hydraulic pump is producing maximum pressure.
The pump pressure regulator is working properly.
The unit injector hydraulic pump is worn.
System leaksThe electronic service tool is used to perform this test.Dead Head Test for the Unit Injector Hydraulic Pump
The unit injector hydraulic pump dead head test is used to verify that the following conditions exist:
The injection actuation pressure circuit is working.
The unit injector hydraulic pump is working properly.See the Troubleshooting Manual for additional information on performing the troubleshooting tests for the Injection Actuation System and the dead head test for the Unit Injector Hydraulic Pump.
