Overhaul Intervals
Top end overhauls are determined by the projection of exhaust valve stems. In-frame overhauls are determined by cylinder compression, crankcase blowby, and oil consumption. Major overhauls are determined by the in-frame tests, and by results of S O S oil analysis.Some other factors that are important for determining the overhaul intervals include the following considerations:
Performance of preventive maintenance
Use of recommended lubricants
Use of recommended coolants
Use of recommended fuels
Proper installation
Operating conditions
Operation within acceptable limits
Engine load
Engine speedNote: To avoid oil problems, engines that are turbocharged and aftercooled must be operated at a minimum of 60 percent of rated load.Generally, engines that are operated at a reduced load and/or speed achieve more service life before an overhaul. However, this service life is for engines that are properly operated and maintained.Overhaul Inspection
Refer to the Service Manual for the disassembly and assembly procedures that are necessary in order to perform the required maintenance on the items that are listed. Consult your Cat dealer for assistance.To determine the reusability publications that are needed to inspect the engine, refer to Guidelines for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8029, "Index of Publications on Reusability or Salvage of Used Parts".The Guidelines For Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations is part of an established Cat parts reusability program. These guidelines were developed in order to assist Cat dealers and customers reduce costs by avoiding unnecessary expenditures for new parts. If the engine parts comply with the established inspection specifications, the parts can be reused. New parts are not necessary if the old parts can be reused, repaired, or salvaged.If the parts are not within the inspection specifications, the parts should be salvaged, repaired, replaced, or exchanged. The use of out-of-spec parts could result in unscheduled downtime and/or costly repairs. The use of out-of-spec parts can also contribute to increased fuel consumption and reduction of engine efficiency.Your Cat dealer can provide the parts that are needed to rebuild the engine at the least possible cost.Overhaul Programs
An economical way to obtain most of the parts that are needed for overhauls is to use Cat remanufactured parts. Cat remanufactured parts are available at a fraction of the cost of new parts. These parts have been rebuilt by Caterpillar and certified for use. The following components are examples of the remanufactured parts:
Alternators
Connecting rods
Crankshafts
Cylinder heads
Oil Pumps
Starting motors
Turbochargers
Water pumpsConsult your Cat dealer for details and for a list of the remanufactured parts that are available.Your Cat dealer may be offering various overhaul options.A Flat Rate Overhaul guarantees the maximum price that you will pay for an overhaul. Flat rate prices on preventive maintenance programs or major repair options are available from many servicing dealers for all Cat Engines. Consult your Cat dealer in order to schedule a before failure overhaul.Overhaul Recommendation
Caterpillar recommends a scheduled overhaul in order to minimize downtime. A scheduled overhaul will provide the lowest cost and the greatest value. Schedule an overhaul with your Cat dealer.Overhaul programs vary between dealers. To obtain specific information about the types of overhaul programs and services, consult your Cat dealer.
