pump. The Fuel Pump/Gear Pump is a low-pressure
pump and produce pressures ranging from 551.5 kpa
(80 psi) to 1241 kpa (180) psi. Fuel then enters the
fuel injection pump. Low pressure fuel is then sup-
plied to the FAC (Fuel Control Actuator).
The FAC is an electronically controlled solenoid
valve. The ECM controls the amount of fuel that
enters the high-pressure pumping chambers by open-
ing and closing the FAC based on a demanded fuel
pressure. The FPS (Fuel Pressure Sensor) on the fuel
rail provides the actual fuel pressure. When the
actuator is opened, the maximum amount of fuel is
being supplied to the fuel injection pump. Any fuel
that does not enter the injection pump is directed to
the overflow valve. The overflow valve regulates how
much excess fuel is used for lubrication of the pump
and how much is returned to the tank through the
drain manifold.
Fuel entering the injection pump is pressurized to
between 300 - 1600 bar by three radial pumping
chambers. The pressurized fuel is then supplied to
the fuel rail.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FUEL INJECTION
PUMP TIMING
With the Bosch injection pump, there are no
mechanical adjustments needed or necessary to
accomplish fuel injection timing. All timing and fuel
adjustments are electrically made by the engine
mounted Engine Control Module (ECM).
REMOVAL
CAUTION: Cleanliness cannot be overemphasized
when handling or replacing diesel fuel system com-
ponents. This especially includes the fuel injectors,
high-pressure fuel lines and fuel injection pump.
Very tight tolerances are used with these parts. Dirt
contamination could cause rapid part wear and pos-
sible plugging of fuel injector nozzle tip holes. This
in turn could lead to possible engine misfire.
Always wash/clean any fuel system component
thoroughly before disassembly and then air dry.
Cap or cover any open part after disassembly.
Before assembly, examine each part for dirt, grease
or other contaminants and clean if necessary. When
installing new parts, lubricate them with clean
engine oil or clean diesel fuel only.
(1) Disconnect both negative battery cables at both
batteries. Cover and isolate ends of both cables.
(2) Remove intake manifold air intake tube (above
injection pump) and its rubber connector hose (Fig.
8).
(3) The Engine Control Module (ECM) is mounted
to left side of engine (Fig. 9). Remove 5 ECM mount-

ing bolts and position ECM for injection pump
removal. Do not disconnect wiring connectors
from ECM.
(4) Remove cooling fan shroud.
(5) Remove cooling fan assembly.
(6) Remove accessory drive belt.
(7) Thoroughly clean the rear of injection pump,
and attachment points for its 3 fuel lines (Fig. 10).
Also clean the opposite ends of these same 3 lines at
their attachment points.
(8) Disconnect Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) electri-
cal connector at rear of injection pump (Fig. 11).
(9) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-overflow
valve).
(10) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-fuel rail).
(11) Remove fuel line (injection pump-to-fuel filter
housing).
(12) Remove fuel pump drive gear access cover
(plate) with a 1/2 inch drive ratchet. Plate is
threaded to timing gear cover (Fig. 12).
(13) Remove fuel pump drive gear mounting nut
and washer.
(14) Attach C3428B, or L4407A (or equivalent)
gear puller (Fig. 13) to pump drive gear with 2 bolts,
and separate gear from pump (a keyway is not used
on this particular injection pump). Leave drive gear
hanging loose within timing gear cover.
(15) Remove 3 injection pump mounting nuts (Fig.
14), and remove pump from engine.
