Engine Overhaul Kits for C-12, C13 ACERT™, 3406E, C-15, C15 ACERT, and C-16 On-Highway Engines
(added Kits for C13 & C15 07 EPA Engines)
With the overwhelming acceptance of the previously announced Precious Metals engine overhaul kit program, Caterpillar is pleased to expand available offerings to include kits to support the C13 and C15 07 EPA engines. The improved overhaul kits provide all of the parts necessary to do an in-frame overhaul based on the customer or dealer needs. Time spent researching and ordering individual parts can be eliminated with prepackaged overhaul groups that can be stocked to meet immediate customer needs.
All kit consist information and model effectivity can be viewed in SISWEB (See “Where to Identify Available Kits” below). The following chart is available in this IRM to provide detailed information on the kits:
Appendix A: Kit Coverage Chart
There are 4 levels of kits: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum.
Bronze - primarily a non-warranty repair option that includes a head gasket kit and all parts necessary for a lower-end overhaul. It forms the base consist for the Silver, Gold, and Platinum kits. (Note: The Bronze kits are intended to be as comprehensive a gasket kit as possible. In some cases, certain pieces are not included where they are used on only a small subset of engine arrangements or where there is a large variation of part numbers used across the various engine arrangements the kit will cover. Always review the kit consist against the specific engine arrangement to confirm if there are other items required. Examples include pre-cooler hoses, variable valve actuator studs, and additional parts needed for engines with brake savers)
Silver - basic in-frame overhaul kit utilizing new parts targeted towards the customer who performs the work themselves or the independent shop. Includes Bronze kit, plus 6 pistons, rings, wrist pins and retainers.
Gold – basic in-frame overhaul kit similar to Silver but utilizes Bronze kit plus Cat Reman Cylinder Packs which include the connecting rods. Cylinder Packs offer advantage of less labor to complete the repair.
Platinum – complete overhaul kit which includes Bronze kit plus Reman Cylinder Packs, Reman cylinder head, Reman fuel injectors, Reman water pump, and Reman oil pump.
Appendix A includes a table showing the effectivity of the kits to engine arrangements. If your engine arrangement is not in the list of verified arrangements, one of the rebuild kits still could apply but will require you to validate the kit consist for your specific engine arrangement parts requirements.
