3306B (63Z) And 3406B (4MG) Truck EnginesAn improved 1W2076 Cover is used in the fuel ratio control groups. Effective with 3306B Truck Engines 63Z7937-15121, and 3406B Truck Engines 4MG3600-58752, the 1W2076 Cover in the fuel ratio control group was made from zinc. Formerly, the cover was made from aluminum. The cover made from zinc can distort when exposed to heat and pressure. This distorting can cause the cover mounting bolts to loosen and allow the gasket under the cover to blow out. This can result in an engine performance complaint. The zine cover should be replaced with an aluminum cover. An FT1906 Fabricated Tester and a soap solution can be used to check for leaks.

The improved aluminum cover is stronger and will not distort. The aluminum and zinc covers look the same. The difference can be detected by weighing the covers. The aluminum cover weighs 57 g (2 oz), while the zinc cover weighs 113 g (4 oz).
