ENGINE SYSTEMS

The engine systems are the following:

Fuel System

The fuel system consists of DDEC,
fuel injectors, fuel manifolds (integral
with the cylinder head), fuel pump,
a cooling plate for the ECU on
non-automotive engines, primary
and secondary fuel filters, and the
necessary connecting fuel lines.

Lubrication System

The lubricating oil system consists of
an oil pump, oil cooler, two full-flow
oil filters, bypass valves at the oil
pump and oil filter adaptor, and
oil pressure regulator valve in the
cylinder block vertical oil gallery.

Air System

The outside air drawn into the
engine passes through the air filter
and is pulled into the turbocharger
and compressed. It then moves to
the air-to-air charge cooler (heat
exchanger) and is cooled. Next it
flows to the intake manifold and into
the cylinders, where it mixes with
atomized fuel from the injectors.
For optimum protection of the
engine from dust and other airborne
contaminants, service the dry type
air cleaners used when the maximum

allowable air restriction has been
reached, or annually, whichever
occurs first.

Cooling System

A radiator/thermo-modulated fan
cooling system is used on Series 60
engines. This system has a centrifugal
type fresh water pump to circulate
coolant within the engine. Two
full-blocking type thermostats located
in a housing attached to the right side
of the cylinder head control the flow
of coolant.

Electrical System

The electrical system consists of
a starting motor, starting switch,
battery-charging alternator, storage
batteries, and the necessary wiring.

Exhaust System

Hot exhaust gas flowing from the
exhaust manifold into the exhaust riser
is used to drive the turbocharger.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation
System
The purpose of the Exhaust Gas
Recirculation System (EGR) is to
reduce engine exhaust gas emissions
in accordance with EPA regulations.
