15 Seal the vent pipe of the fuel tank or the fuel filler cap with waterproof tape.
16 Remove the drive belts and put them into storage.
17 In order to prevent corrosion, spray the engine with POWERPART Lay-Up 3. Do not spray the area inside
the alternator cooling fan.
Caution: After a period in storage, but before the engine is started, operate the starter motor with the engine
stop control in the stop" position until oil pressure is indicated. Oil pressure can be indicted either by a gauge
or when a low pressure warning light is extinguished. If a solenoid stop control is used on the fuel injection
pump, it must be disconnected for this operation.
If the engine protection is done correctly according to the above recommendations, no corrosion damage will
normally occur. Perkins are not responsible for damage which may occur when an engine is in storage after a
period in service.

Parts and service

Introduction
If problems occur with your engine or with the components fitted onto it, your Perkins distributor can make the
necessary repairs and will ensure that only the correct parts are fitted and that the work is done correctly.
Certain components can be supplied by your Perkins distributor through the Perkins POWER EXCHANGE
system. These will enable you to reduce the cost of certain repairs.
Service literature
Workshop manuals and other service publications are available from your Perkins distributor at a nominal cost.
Training
Local training for the correct operation, service and overhaul of engines is available at certain Perkins
distributors. If special training is necessary, your Perkins distributor can advise you how to obtain it at the
Perkins Product Education Department, Peterborough, or other main centres.
