Fuel Pump Gear; Operation 6-10 To Remove - Perkins New 1000 Series Workshop Manual

New 1000 Series

Fuel pump gear

The fuel injection timing is set with specialist tools in the factory after the engine has been accurately set to
TDC, number 1 cylinder on the compression stroke. The fuel pump gear has timing marks (A) which can be
used to find the approximate position of TDC on number 1 cylinder compression stroke. The marked teeth of
the crankshaft, the camshaft and the fuel pump gears will be in mesh with the idler gear when number 1 piston
is close to top dead centre (TDC) on the compression stroke. The marked teeth of the idler gear may not
necessarily be in mesh in this position, because of the different speeds at which the gears rotate.
The fuel injection pump is timed at TDC on the compression stroke of number 1 cylinder. It is important that
fuel injection timing is accurate to conform to emissions legislation. Always use the methods in Operation 8-1
or Operation 8-2 to obtain TDC on the compression stroke of number 1 cylinder accurately.
To remove
Special requirements
Description
Bosch fuel injection pump timing pin
Socket Torx drive
1 Remove the timing case cover, see Operation 6-1.
Caution: Do not lock the shaft of the fuel injection pump, for Bosch pumps see Operation 11-10 or for Lucas/
Delphi DP 200 Series pumps Operation 11-13.
2 Set the number one piston to TDC on the compression stroke, see Operation 8-1 or Operation 8-2.
Fit the timing pin (B3) until the small end of the pin (B2) is pushed fully into the hole in the fuel pump body (B4).
The pin can only be fitted when the number one piston is correctly in position at TDC on the compression
stroke. If the timing pin cannot be pushed into the pump body, check the timing of the fuel injection pump, see
Operation 8-4.
