3406B Engines Equipped With New Scroll Fuel SystemCare must be taken during installation of individual 2W3413 Fuel Injection Pumps on the above engines. If the pump is not installed in the housing correctly, it will not allow full rack travel in both directions. This can affect engine performance and result in misfire and/or rough running.
Fuel injection pump installation must always be done carefully, especially in tilted (non-vertical) engine installations. When the pump is installed in the engine, gravity can cause the steel segment gear to rotate slightly. If the gear rotates during installation, the alignment of the gear segment and rack will not be correct and will prevent full rack travel in both directions.
The following procedure and checks can be used to insure correct installation and operation of any number of individual replacement pumps on most engines.
Procedure To Install A Replacement Fuel Injection Pump
1. Rotate the fuel pump camshaft so the replacement fuel injection pump will be installed on the base circle, not on the lobe of the fuel pump camshaft.2. Remove or activate the shutoff solenoid. a. On engines equipped with Woodward governors, measure the static fuel setting and back out the governor stop. After the pump has been replaced, reset the rack stop to the original position. To check the installation of a replacement pump, it is necessary to have full rack travel in both directions. Use the above steps (as needed) to position the pump and have full rack travel in both directions. The actual zero location of the timing pin and rack are not used to check the installation of replacement pumps.3. Remove the cover (rack position indicator) and plug (rack centering pin) and install the 6V4186 Timing Pin as shown in Illustration 1.

Use finger pressure to be sure the rack is at full rack travel (beyond full load position).5. If the fuel injection pump installation is correct, when the timing pin is lowered it will be on the rack as shown in Illustration 2.
