HOSE AS 8W2727 - Caterpillar

System Operation Description:Note: Refer to Troubleshooting, "Cat ET Service Features" for information about service features.Note: The following conditions must be met before continuing with this procedure.
The minimum engine speed or cranking speed must be at least 150 RPM.
The fuel pressure must be above 210 kPa (30 psi).
The fuel temperature must be above 10° C (50° F).Use this procedure in order to troubleshoot low fuel rail pressure while the engine is cranking. Also, use this procedure if the diagnostic code in Table 1 is active or logged.

Troubleshooting Test Steps    Values    Results    
1. Check for Associated Codes
A. Establish communication between Cat® Electronic Technician (ET) and the Engine Electronic Control Module (ECM).
B. Download the "Warranty Report" from the engine ECM before performing any troubleshooting or clearing diagnostic trouble codes.
C. If any of the associated codes in Table 2 are logged, troubleshoot the codes before continuing with this procedure.
   
Associated Codes    
Result: An associated code is active or logged.
Repair: Troubleshoot the associated codes before continuing with this procedure.
Result: An associated code is not active or logged.
Proceed to Test Step 2.    
2. Inspect the Fuel System
A. Inspect the fuel system. Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System - Inspect" for inspection of the high-pressure fuel lines and the fuel rail.
   
Fuel system Problems    
Result: Problems were found with the fuel system.
Repair: Repair the components or replace the components that are damaged. Verify that the problem is resolved.
Result: Problems were not found with the fuel system.
Proceed to Test Step 3.
   
3. Check the Fuel Rail Sensor
A. Allow the engine to be OFF for 10 minutes.
B. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position, do not start the engine.
C. Connect to the Engine ECM using Cat ET.
D. Using Cat ET, check the status of the "Fuel Rail Pressure (absolute)".
   
Rail Pressure Less Than
5,000 kPa (725 psi)     Result: The pressure dropped below
5,000 kPa (725 psi) after the engine was shut off for 10 minutes.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
Result: The pressure did not drop below
5,000 kPa (725 psi) after the engine was shut off for 10 minutes.
Repair: Replace the fuel rail pressure sensor. If the problem has been corrected, return the unit to service.
   
4. Start the Engine
A. Try to start the engine.
   
Engine     Result: The engine will start.
Proceed to Test Step 5.
Result: The engine will not start.
Repair: Refer to Systems Operations/Testing and Adjusting, "Injector Bypass Fuel Flow"
