The fuel system is completely free of adjustment. Adjustments to the components that are mechanical can not be made. Changes in performance are made by installing different software on the Electronic Control Module (ECM) (12) .This fuel system consists of five major components:
Fuel pump (15)
Electronic Control Module (ECM) (12)
Fuel Injectors (3)
Fuel rail (4)
Fuel transfer pump (14) Note: The components of the fuel system are not serviceable. These fuel system components must not be disassembled. Disassembly will damage the components. If the components have been disassembled, Caterpillar may not allow a warranty claim or Caterpillar may reduce the warranty claim.Fuel System Operation
Fuel is pulled from the fuel tank (10) and through the primary fuel filter (11) by the use of the transfer pump (14). The transfer pump (14) sends the fuel through the secondary fuel filter (13) and up to the fuel pump (15). The fuel pump (15) pressurizes the fuel that is sent to the fuel rail (5). The fuel rail (5) distributes the fuel to the fuel injectors (3) by the use of quill tubes (7). The fuel rail uses a fuel pressure sensor (4) that tells the ECM (12) the pressure of the fuel rail. The ECM also receives engine speed from the speed/timing sensor (16). The ECM controls the solenoids for the fuel pump (1) in order to obtain the correct amount of pressure. If pressure at the fuel rail is too high, the pressure relief valve (6) will drain proper amounts of fuel back to the fuel tank. Once the fuel reaches the fuel injectors, the fuel injectors open a control valve that is inside of the injector by the use of a solenoid. The fuel injectors deliver the high pressure fuel into the combustion chamber at precise amounts of quantity and time. A drain in the fuel injector sends fuel that was not used during the delivery to the secondary filter. The pressure regulator (8) keeps a constant back pressure on the fuel injector.
