5 Put the fuel pump drive gear against the hub of the fuel pump. Fit the setscrews (C1) through the slots in
the fuel pump gear into the hub of the fuel pump.
6 Apply pressure to the pump drive gear in an counter-clockwise direction to eliminate gear backlash. Fully
tighten the setscrews to 28Nm (21 lbf ft) 2,9 kgf m. Remove the timing pin (C3) and fit the access cover for the
fuel pump gear.
7 Remove the locking pin from the flywheel.
8 Fit the setscrew and nut of the support bracket. Ensure that force is not applied to the fuel pump when the
support bracket is fitted.
9 Fit the high and low pressure pipes.
10 Fit the electrical connections to the cold start advance unit and to the electrical stop solenoid.
11 Eliminate air from the fuel system, see Operation 11-19.
Caution: Do not remove the nut (C2) from the shaft of the fuel injection pump. The fuel pump hub is fitted to
the shaft in the factory to ensure that the fuel pump is in the correct position for timing. If the hub is removed,
the hub will need to be accurately fitted to the pump by use of special equipment available to Perkins
distributors.
