HOSE AS 5131817 - Caterpillar

Probable Causes
The probable root causes are listed in order below:Note: If the problem is intermittent and the problem can not be duplicated, refer to Troubleshooting, "Intermittent Low Power or Power Cutout".
Individual malfunctioning cylinder
Fuel supply
Accelerator pedal position sensor
Power train data link
Speed/timing sensorsRecommended Actions
Perform the following diagnostic procedures in order:Note: If the problem only occurs under certain conditions, test the engine under those conditions. Examples of certain conditions are high rpm, full load and engine operating temperature. Troubleshooting the symptoms under other conditions can give misleading results.
Check for an individual malfunctioning cylinder.
Ensure that the J5/P5 Electronic Unit Injector Connector is fully connected and ensure that the J5/P5 Electronic Unit Injector Connector is free of corrosion.
Ensure that the J2/P2 ECM connector is fully connected and ensure that the J2/P2 ECM connector is free of corrosion.
Connect the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET). Access the "Cylinder Cutout Test" by selecting "Diagnostic Tests" under the "Diagnostics" menu. Run the "Cylinder Cutout Test" in order to disable each cylinder. Disabling each cylinder allows the technician to isolate the misfiring cylinders.If the misfiring cylinder can be isolated to a specific cylinder, refer to Troubleshooting, "Injector Solenoid Circuit - Test".
Check the fuel supply.
Monitor the exhaust for smoke while the engine is being cranked.If white smoke is present, there may be a problem with the fuel quality.
Check the fuel quality.
Check the fuel pressure.
Ensure that the fuel system has been primed.
Check for fuel supply lines that are restricted.
Check the fuel filters.
Check for air in the fuel system. Refer to Testing and Adjusting for more information on the fuel system. Also refer to Truck Application and Installation Guide, LEBT5109.
If the temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F), check for solidified fuel (wax).
If the problem does not occur during cruise control, check the accelerator pedal position sensor.
Use the cruise/idle On/Off switch to put the engine in idle mode.
Vary the engine rpm with the Set/Resume switches.If both of the following conditions are met, connect Cat ET and monitor the status of the accelerator pedal position sensor.
The engine is stable by using idle mode to control the engine rpm.
The engine is unstable by using the accelerator pedal position sensor.If the status of the accelerator pedal position sensor is unstable, refer to Troubleshooting, "Accelerator Pedal (Throttle) Position Sensor Circuit - Test".
Check the "Power train Data Link". Ensure that the SAE J1922 or the SAE J1939 Power train Data Link is not limiting the power.
Connect Cat ET to the data link connector.
Monitor the "Power train Data Link" status screen while the vehicle is experiencing problems.If the "Power train Data Link" status screen indicates that the "Power train Data Link" is limiting the power or the rpm, verify that this is not normal operation. If this is not normal operation, refer to the vehicle OEM for repairs.
Check the primary engine speed/timing sensor.If the signal from the primary engine
