Diagnostic Codes and Events
Use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check for logged derates. The engine speed or the engine power may be limited due to one of the following conditions: high altitude, high intake manifold air temperature, low oil pressure, air filter restriction and other factors. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Event Codes List" for the specific events that are applicable to this application.Starting Aids
Ether Injection System (If Equipped)
Check the operation of the ether injection system. Ensure that the ether injection system is operating properly. For additional information on troubleshooting electrical problems with the ether injection system, refer to ON position. For additional information, refer to Troubleshooting, "Ether Starting Aid - Test" or refer to Troubleshooting, "Starting Aid - Test" for details.Decelerator Pedal Position Sensor
Monitor the decelerator pedal on Cat ET. Verify that the decelerator pedal is operating properly. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Speed Control - Test" for the proper troubleshooting procedures.Throttle Position Sensor
Monitor the switch signal on Cat ET. Verify that the signal is stable at the low idle position. Verify that the signal is stable at the high idle position. Move the switch from the low idle position to the high idle position in order to verify that the engine is able to reach the high idle position. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Speed Control - Test" for the proper troubleshooting procedure.Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor and Atmospheric Pressure Sensor
Monitor the status of "Fuel Position", of "Rated Fuel Limit", and of "FRC Fuel Limit" on Cat ET while the engine is operating under full load. These parameters must reflect the information below.
Table 1
"Fuel Position" = "Rated Fuel Limit"
and
"Fuel Position" < "FRC Fuel Limit"    If "Fuel Position" equals "Rated Fuel Limit" and "Fuel Position" is less than "FRC Fuel Limit", the electronics are operating correctly. Otherwise, proceed with the next Step.
Use Cat ET in order to monitor the status of the "Boost Pressure". With the engine stopped, the correct "Boost Pressure" is 0 kPa (0 psi).
Start the engine and monitor the status of "Boost Pressure" while you vary the engine speed. Ensure that the pressure reading is fluctuating with the engine speed.
Use Cat ET in order to check the status of the "Atmospheric Pressure". Verify that the pressure reading is reasonable for the current conditions.Fuel Supply
Check the fuel lines for the following problems: restrictions, collapsed lines and pinched lines. If problems are found with the fuel lines, repair the lines and/or replace the lines.
Check the fuel tank for foreign objects or debris which may block the fuel supply.
Prime the fuel system if any of the following items have been serviced recently:
Fuel filters
Low pressure fuel supply circuit
Unit injectorsNote: A sight glass in the low pressure supply line is helpful in diagnosing air in the fuel. Refer to Systems
