The Caterpillar G3306 Truck Engine is turbocharged and has an air-to-air aftercooler arrangement (ATAAC).The cooling system consists of a gear-driven centrifugal pump, with one thermostat which regulates the engine coolant water temperature, an oil cooler, and an OEM radiator incorporating a shunt system.The engine lubricating oil, which is both cooled and filtered, is supplied by a gear-type pump. Bypass valves provide unrestricted flow of lubrication oil to the engine parts when oil viscosity is high, or if either the oil cooler or the oil filter elements (paper cartridge) should become plugged.Engine efficiency, efficiency of emission controls, and engine performance depend on adherence to proper operation and maintenance recommendations, and the use of recommended fuels and lubrication oils.Engine Identification
Caterpillar engines are identified with Serial Numbers, Performance Specification Numbers (fuel system settings), and Arrangement Numbers. In some cases, Modification Numbers are also used. These numbers are shown on the serial number plate mounted on the engine.Serial Number Plate Location
The Serial Number Plate is located on the side of the cylinder block.Information Plate
The 9L6531 Information Plate is located on the valve cover. The high idle rpm and the full load rpm are stamped on the Information Plate.Reference Numbers
