Introduction
The specifications given in this book are on the basis of information available at the time the book was written. These specifications give the torques, operating pressure, measurements of new parts, adjustments and other items that will affect the service of the product.When the words "use again" are in the description, the specification given can be used to determine if a part can be used again. If the part is equal to or within the specification given, use the part again.When the word "permissible" is in the description, the specification given is the "maximum or minimum" tolerance permitted before adjustment, repair and/or new parts are needed.A comparison can be made between the measurements of a worn part, and the specifications of a new part to find the amount of wear. A part that is worn can be safe to use if an estimate of the remainder of its service life is good. If a short service life is expected, replace the part. The specifications given for "use again" and "permissible" are intended for guidance only and Caterpillar Tractor Co. hereby expressly denies and excludes any representation, warranty or implied warranty of the reuse of any component. This engine uses bolts (3/8 inch size only) with washer heads in some locations. The washer head bolt does not need a plain washer, lockwasher or lockplate. Where these bolts are used on aluminum covers or housings, a plain washer is needed. If you are not sure a washer is used under a bolt head, use the Parts Book to see if a washer is needed.Engine Design

FUEL SYSTEM
1. Injection valve. 2. Anti-siphon block. 3. Injection pump housing. 4. Priming pump. 5. Plug. 6. Secondary filter. 7. Fuel line. 8. Return line to tank. 9. Fuel tank. 10. Primary filter. 11. Transfer pump.This engine has a pressure type fuel system. There is a single injection pump and injection valve (1) for each cylinder. The injection pumps are in the pump housing (3) on the left side of the engine. The injection valves are in the precombustion chambers, under the valve cover.The transfer pump (11) pulls fuel from the fuel tank (9) through the primary filter (10) and sends it through the base of the priming pump (4) and the secondary filter (6), through the anti-siphon block (2) and to the manifold of the injection pump housing. When priming pump (4) is not used, the position of fuel line (7) and plug (5) are reversed. The fuel in the manifold of the injection pump housing goes to the injection pumps. The injection pumps are in time with the engine and send fuel to the injection valves under high
