Action Required
Before installing or delivering any of the Affected Product, perform the following steps to ensure the internal fuel injection pump components are not stuck due to fuel pump gumming:
1. Remove the top cover of the fuel injection pump and check to ensure that all sleeves and levers are free and there are no gummy deposits on any of these components.2. If inspection performed in Step 1 indicates everything is clean, install top cover and return to parts stock.3. If inspection reveals components have gummy deposits, remove 12 ounces of fuel from the fuel pump housing and replace it with:- Fuel Injector Cleaneror- Carburetor/Choke Cleaner4. Allow the components to soak in cleaning solution for 45 minutes. Then, rotate the engine crankshaft to rotate the fuel injection pump and check for free movement of the lever and sleeve (on pumps only, rotate the fuel pump camshaft). This will ensure the components have the gummy deposits removed.5. If the above procedures do not free the pump assembly, remove the individual pumps from the pump housing, clean them with cleaning solution, and install them back into the housing.6. If the engine or fuel pump will be used immediately, install the cover on the fuel injection pump, and install or deliver the engine or pump.7. If the engine or fuel pump will be returned to stock, DO NOT leave the fuel injection pump full of cleaning solution because it may not contain any rust inhibitors. Remove the cleaning solution, fill the fuel injector pump with clean diesel fuel, and install the cover on the pump.Service Claim Allowances
The inspection of the pump is a .5-hour job. If the pump needs to be cleaned, an additional .5 hour may be claimed. If the individual pumps need to be removed from the pump housing for cleaning, up to an additional 1.5 hours may be claimed.
