BUCKET GP-MULTIPURPOSE 4736941 - Caterpillar

Probable Causes
Failed turbocharger seals
Worn valve guide seals or faulty valve guide seals
Worn valve guides
Worn piston rings
Extended idle timesRecommended Actions
Note: After the repair has been made, the oil should be cleaned from the exhaust system. To clean the oil from the exhaust system, perform the following procedure:
Remove excess oil from piping with a clean cloth.
Inhibit regeneration with the inhibit switch.
Operate the engine at elevated idle (1500 RPM) for 10 minutes. If white smoke dissipates, return machine to work.If white smoke persists, this is an indication of a saturated aftertreatment system, perform the following procedure:
Shut off the engine.
Remove the DPF center section, let the DPF drain on the inlet side.
Remove the DOC, let the DOC drain on the outlet side overnight .
Once drained, install the DPF and DOC.
Operate the engine at elevated idle (1500 RPM) for 10 minutes. If white smoke dissipates, return machine to work.If white smoke does not dissipate, Contact your Cat dealer Technical Communicator (TC). For further assistance, your TC can confer with the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN).Complete the procedure in the order in which the steps are listed.

Troubleshooting Test Steps Values Results
1. Failed Turbocharger Seals
A. Check the inlet manifold and the exhaust manifold for oil.
Turbo Seals
Result: Oil is present in the inlet or exhaust manifold.
Repair: Replace the turbocharger. Verify the repair.
Result: Oil is not present in the inlet or exhaust manifold.
Proceed to Test Step 2.
2. Worn Valve Guide Seals or Faulty Valve Guide Seals
A. Inspect the valve guide seals for wear and for damage.
Valve Guide Seals
Result: The valve guide seals are damaged.
Repair: Replace the valve guide seals. Verify the repair.
Result: The valve guide seals are not damaged.
Proceed to Test Step 3.
3. Worn Valve Guides
A. Inspect the valve guides for wear. Refer to the Specification manual for the maximum permissible wear of the valve guides.
Valve Guides
Result: The valve guides are worn.
Repair: If necessary, recondition the cylinder head. Verify the repair.
Result: The valve guides are not worn.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
4. Worn Piston Rings
A. Piston rings that have excessive wear can cause too much pressure in the crankcase. The additional pressure in the crankcase will cause more than the normal amount of crankcase blowby from the crankcase breather. Use the following service tools, along with Software License, NETG5044:
1. 285-0900 Blowby Tool Gp (SMALL ENGINE)
2. 348-5430 Multi-Tool Gp
B. Inspect piston rings
Piston Rings
Result The piston rings are worn.
Repair: Replace the piston rings. Verify the repair.
Result The piston rings are not worn.
Proceed to Test Step 5.
5. Extended Idle Times
A. Extended idle times will allow oil to pass into the exhaust system.
Idle Times
Result The idle times are extensive.
Repair: Reduce the idle times.
