Filter (1), and 6V-0183 Pump Body Gasket (2) are all available from the Parts Department.
Install a new 8T-5313 Nozzle Tester Filter (1) at least once every three months, or more often when
necessary. Install a new 6V-0183 Pump Body Gasket (2) when necessary.
NOTE: For nozzle cleaning procedure, refer to Special Instruction SEHS8627 entitled "Use Of 8S2245
Nozzle Cleaning Tool Group".
REFERENCE: Service Manual Parts Book, Special Instruction SEHS8627 "Use of 8S2245 Nozzle
Cleaning Tool Group", SEHS7390 "Test Sequence For Pencil-Type Fuel Nozzles".

General Information
NOTE: When testing either new nozzles or nozzles that are not suspected of a failure, it is permissible
to flush each nozzle three full strokes before the test.
It is necessary to have an accurate record of the test results for each nozzle that is tested. Record the
results of each nozzle test procedure on SEHS8144 "Nozzle Test Record".
These test sheets are available through Miscellaneous Order Division. Pads containing 50 sheets may be
ordered with special instruction SEHS8144. A copy of SEHS8144 is shown at the back of this manual.
NOTE: Always keep the reservoir filled with CLEAN calibration fluid. Low oil level will cause SOFT
or SPONGY operation of the tester pump. Use SAE J-967 Calibration Fluid in the tester. Order
calibration fluid, according to the amount needed, by the following part numbers.
6V-6067 Calibration Fluid...208 L (54.9 gal U.S.) Drum
6V-6068 Calibration Fluid...19 L (5.0 gal U.S.) Pail
9U-7411 Calibration Fluid...3.8 L (1.0 gal U.S.) Pail
Have the pressure gauges checked and calibrated at least once each year. Checking and calibration
should be performed more often if the test results become inconsistent of inaccuracy is suspected.
NOTE: There are two methods for gauge calibration. Gauge calibration should be checked using the 5P8558 Pressure Gauge Calibrating Group or calibrated by the gauge manufacture.
This manual contains the instructions for gauge calibration when using 5P-8558 Pressure Gauge
Calibrating Group. This Manual also contains the procedures to follow if the gauges are sent to the
manufacturer for calibration.
Refer to "Calibration (Method 1 or Method 2)" in this manual.
The rate of 8T-0856 Pressure Gauge is 0-6000 kPa (0-870 psi) with minor divisions (increments) of 100
kPa (20 psi).
The range of 8T-0860 Pressure Gauge is 0-40 000 kPa (0-5800 psi) with minor divisions (increments) of
1000 kPa (100 psi).

The accuracy for either gauge is 2.0 percent full scale across the entire readable range.
The test information in this manual has been obtained by comparison tests of fuel nozzles known to be
good. These tests are not intended to be a duplication of conditions that exist during engine operation.
The tests in this manual will provide an indication of nozzle condition. A nozzle that has a defect is
NOT always the only cause for a specific engine problem.
NOTE: The absence of valve chatter or spray during the test does not indicate that the nozzle has a
defect. Chatter can occur on the tester but not occur when the nozzle is installed in the engine.

When testing fuel injection nozzles, always wear eye protection.


Fuel sprays from the orifices in the nozzle tip under high
pressure. It can pierce the skin and cause serious injury to the
operator. Always keep the tip of the nozzle pointed away from
the operator and into 8S-2270 Fuel Collector Assembly and FT1384 or 1U-8857 Extension Tube.

The test procedures for Capsule-Type Fuel Nozzles, Pencil-Type Fuel Nozzles, and Caterpillar 7000
Series Fuel Nozzles are provided in hits manual. In addition, the test procedures are also available in an
abbreviated, chart-type form. The form numbers for these charts are:

SEHS7350 "Test Sequence For Capsule-Type Fuel Nozzles"


SEHS7390 "Test Sequence For Pencil-Type Fuel Nozzles"
SEHS9083 "Test Sequence For Caterpillar 7000 Series Fuel Nozzles"

test fluid flows from the tip. The test fluid spray is similar to Illustration A shown as SATISFACTORY.
The fluid must spray from all orifices.
NOTE: "RAPIDLY increase the pressure" is defined as:

Each full pump stroke is performed in LESS than one second.


The nozzle must produce a pattern as shown in the Illustration A.
The test fluid must flow evenly from all orifices.

Illustration C. UNSATISFACTORY fluid spray: HORIZONTAL DEFLECTION.


NOTE: If it is difficult to view all orifices at one time, it is permissible to use a slow stroke to verify
that all orifices are open.
A RAPID stroke must be used, however, for the final test.
NOTE: This completes the test sequence for Type B 9L-9263, 9L-7883, and 9N-2366 Nozzle
Assemblies.
Installation Of Cap (Type A And C Nozzles Only)
1. Remove the nozzle from the tester and install it in 8S-2250 Nozzle Holding Tool. Position the tool,
with nozzle, in a vise.

2. Install new 1H-1023 O-ring Seal (1) and cap (2). Tighten cap (2) to a torque of 12.0 Nm (106 lb in)
to 14.0 Nm (124 lb in).

NOTE: Do not over-tighten cap (2).


Cap Leakage Test
1. Install the nozzle on 5P-4150 Tester Group.
Position the nozzle so its spray is directed into 8S-2270 Fuel Collector Assembly and FT-1384 or 1U8857 Extension Tube.

2. Pump the tester until cap (1) is completely full of fuel and the pressure on the gauge is 20 700 kPa
(3000 psi).
NOTE: It may take 15-20 strokes to reach 20 700 kPa (3000 psi).
NOTE: A hydraulic lock can prevent the nozzle from opening when the cap is completely full of test
fluid.
This can happen when the nozzle is on the nozzle tester because of the large volume of test fluid
delivered by the nozzle tester pump and the pressure held in the line at the end of each pump stroke.
A fuel system that operates correctly on-engine will not permit a hydraulic lock to occur in the nozzle.
OPEN the nozzle tester On/Off valve to release trapped pressure. Remove the nozzle from the tester.

3. Install new compression seal (3). Use 6V-4979 Carbon Stop Seal Tool to install new carbon dam (2).
Inspect For Damage
Inspect for damage caused by:

Steel wire brushing.


Partially melted carbon dam seal.
NOTE: Engine overheating can cause carbon dam seal material to melt and thinly adhere up the side of
the nozzle body.
If this condition is found, replace the entire set of fuel nozzles.
NOTE: Use 8S-2257 Loupe, from 8S-2245 Nozzle Cleaning Tool Group or 6V-2196 Inspection
Microscope, to visually inspect nozzle orifices and to visually inspect for indication of orifice plugging
or damage.
Inspect for any other obvious damage.
DO NOT use damaged fuel nozzles.
Nozzle Installation For Caterpillar 7000 Series Direct Injection Nozzles

1. SLOWLY increase the pressure until the test fluid just begins to flow from the nozzle tip.

NOTE: An audible click may be heard and a small spurt of fuel may be seen before the VOP is reached.
This is a proper function of 104-9450 through 104-9455 Nozzle Assemblies.
2. If VOP is NOT within VOP Specifications, STOP the test.
DO NOT use the nozzle.
Nozzle Flushing Procedure

1. CLOSE gauge protector valve (8).


2. Pump the tester three full strokes.
3. OPEN gauge protector valve (8).
Tip Leakage Test
