CAUTION SUMMARY
CAUTION:
2. Observe the following cautions when performing basic preventive maintenance on the
engine:
CAUTION:
The operator of a DDEC-equipped engine
should know the extent of the warning system
on his vehicle in order to bring it to a safe stop
in the event of an engine malfunction. A
description of the warning system and detailed
instructions regarding its operation should be
obtained from the owner, the seller, or the manufacturer of the vehicle. This information may
also be obtained from any authorized Detroit
Diesel service outlet.
To be confronted with a power down/shutdown situation without knowing how the DDEC
system works could cause the vehicle to stop
in an unsafe location, posing the possibility of
damage to the vehicle and a threat to the safety
of the operator.
CAUTION:
Engine exhaust may be harmful to your health if
inhaled. Please note this caution and remember:
Always start and operate the engine in a well ventilated area.
If in an enclosed area, vent the exhaust to the outside.
Do not modify or tamper with the exhaust system.

CAUTION:
CAUTION:
When the temperature of diesel fuel is elevated,
as occurs when the fuel is circulated through
an operating engine, it may pose the following
hazards which should be guarded against:
Heated liquid fuel may cause scalding if
allowed to come in contact with the skin.
Heated diesel fuel can form combustible
vapor mixtures in the area around the fuel
source.
Whenever possible, it is recommended that
the engine and fuel be given an opportunity
to cool down to ambient temperature before
performing service operations which could
result in spillage of fuel from the engine or
vehicle fuel system.
When this is not possible, protective clothing
and safety gear (insulated gloves, apron, face
shield) should be worn when performing
these operations.
CAUTION:
To avoid possible personal injury and/or engine
damage from accidental engine start-up, always
disconnect the battery before servicing the electrical system.
CAUTION:
Reversing battery polarity may result in personal injury caused by the sudden discharge of
electrolyte from the battery vents and/or the
sudden rupture of the battery case by explosion
of internal hydrogen gas. Always establish the
correct polarity before connecting cables to the
battery or battery circuit.
9. Observe the following cautions when replacing the engine lubricating oil and filters:
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
When the temperature of engine lubricating oil is elevated, as occurs when the oil is circulated through
an operating engine, it may pose the following hazards which should be guarded against:
Heated oil may cause scalding if allowed to come
in contact with the skin.
Protective clothing and safety gear (insulated
gloves, apron, face shield) should be worn when
draining hot lubricating oil.
Lubricating oil should be drained and replaced in a
well ventilated area that is kept free of bystanders.
CAUTION:

to avoid danger of possible slip and fall injury.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Do not touch battery terminals, alternator terminals, or wiring cables while the engine is
operating. Severe electrical shock, which may
lead to personal injury, may result from improper shielding of electrical components.
Engine or vehicle fuel system service operations should be performed in a well ventilated
area that is kept free of bystanders.
CAUTION:
Keep open flames, sparks, electrical resistance
heating elements, or other potential ignition
sources away and do not smoke during vehicle
refueling or other service operations which
could result in the escape of liquid or vaporized
diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard. Do not mix gasoline
with diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
Mop up or absorb spilled fuel immediately to
avoid danger of possible slip and fall injury.
CAUTION:
To avoid personal injury (burns from the turbocharger or engine) or turbocharger damage,
do not remove, attach, or tighten turbocharger
air intake ducting while the engine is operating
or operate the engine with the ducting
removed.
CAUTION:
Mop up or absorb spilled lubricating oil immediately to avoid danger of possible slip and fall
injury.
CAUTION:
The rotating turbocharger impeller wheel may
pose a hazard when the air inlet piping is

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
U.S.A.
L13188
U.S.A.
L13188
NOTICE:
Failure to install a new gasket and tighten cover
bolts securely can result in pump leakage at
start-up.
NOTICE:
Failure to prime the raw water pump may result in
damage to the flexible pump impeller and engine
overheating.
Prime the GILKES raw water pump by removing
the primer section outlet hose and filling the priming section with one gallon of water. Replace the
hose before starting.
NOTICE:
Failure to eliminate water-diluted lube oil may lead
to serious engine damage at startup.
Check for matted, crushed, or oil-soaked turbocharger or riser insulation blankets (if equipped). Have damaged or oil-soaked blankets replaced.
Check engine mounting bolts for tightness.
Retighten, if necessary.
NOTICE:
Do not use the electric starting motor and engine
fuel pump to prime the fuel system. This can
result in damage to the starter, fuel pump, and
injectors, and cause erratic engine operation due
to the amount of air in the lines and filters from
the supply tank to the cylinder head.
Engines equipped with starting devices dependent on compressed air or gas reservoirs must
also be primed before initial startup. Otherwise,
reserve pressure can be exhausted and injectors
may be damaged from lack of lubrication and
cooling.
Under no circumstances should a starting aid
such as ether be used to run the engine until the
fuel system is primed. Injector damage will
occur if this method is used. The heat generated by the external fuel source will cause the
injectors to be damaged without the fuel to cool
and lubricate them.
If the engine is equipped with a fuel/water separator, drain off any water that has accumulated. Water
in fuel can seriously affect engine performance and
may cause engine damage. Detroit Diesel recommends installation of a fuel/water separator on
marine units and wherever water contamination is
a concern.
Other Checks
NOTICE:
To prevent serious starting motor damage, do not
press the starter switch again after the engine has
started.
2. If the engine fails to start within 15 seconds,
release the starter switch and allow the starting
motor to cool for 15 seconds before trying again.
If the engine fails to start after four attempts, an
inspection should be made to determine the
cause.
Starting Tip: Some white smoke is normal at startup when the engine is cold and will clear up shortly
after the engine warms. However, if you experience
excessive smoke at cold start-up, depress the stop
button or cable at the same time you press the
starter button and crank the engine for a few seconds. Release the stop button or cable and continue
to crank the engine until it starts (but not longer than
15 seconds). This will preheat the cylinders and
reduce white smoke at start-up.
NOTICE:
To prevent serious starting motor damage, do not
press the starter switch again after the engine has
started.
1. Check the pressure in the air storage tank. If necessary, add air to bring the pressure up to at least
the recommended minimum for starting.
2. Press the starter button firmly and hold until the
engine starts.
NOTICE:
If the warning lights on the MIM (Marine Interface
Module) stay on, or if they do not come on
momentarily after turning on the ignition key, consult with a Detroit Diesel service technician. In the
former case, the bridge displays will show the
active fault codes. Operating the engine under
these circumstances may result in engine damage.
NOTICE:
To prevent starting motor damage, do not press
the starter switch again after the engine has started.
10
NOTICE:
Failure to properly fill the cooling system and purge
it of air can result in engine overheating and serious
engine damage.
Warm-up
Run the engine at part throttle for about five (5) minutes to allow it to warm up before applying a heavy
load.
Inspection
Cooling System Entrapped air must be purged
after filling the cooling system. To do this, proceed as
follows:
Industrial Radiator-Cooled Units Make sure regulated pressure of 7-10 psi (48.3-69 kPa) is maintained
during warm-up and that the pressure cap is sealing
properly. If the cooling system is equipped with open
petcocks, vent petcocks on engine deaeration fittings
until coolant (no air) comes out. Close petcocks.
Other Units Allow the engine to warm-up without
the pressure cap installed. With the transmission or
marine gear in neutral, run at high idle speed, and add
coolant as required. Vent the petcock on the deaeration line at the water-jacketed turbocharger (if
equipped) until coolant (no air) comes out. Install the
pressure cap after the coolant level has stabilized at
the bottom of the radiator or heat exchanger tank filler
neck.
11
NOTICE:
If the emergency air shutdown is used to stop the
engine in an emergency situation, always have the
shutdown checked for damage and for proper
operation before the engine is returned to service.
This is especially important if shutdown is made at
high engine RPM. To ensure positive valve closure
should another emergency shutdown be required,
the shutdown must be checked and required
repairs or adjustments made at this time. Failure to
observe this precaution may permit engine run-on
when the emergency shutdown is activated.
Normal Stopping
NOTICE:
Stopping a turbocharged engine immediately after
high speed operation may cause damage to the
turbochargers, as they will continue to turn without
an oil supply to the bearings.
1. Decrease engine speed back to normal idle and
put all shift levers in the neutral position.
2. Allow the engine to run between idle and 1000 rpm
with no load for several minutes. This allows the
engine and the turbochargers to cool down.
Emergency Stopping
The emergency shutdown should be used only
when the engine does not respond to the normal stop engine procedure.
To shut down the engine, simply activate the
emergency shutdown control. This is an electrical
switch or mechanical lever which is normally identified as such on the control panel.
CAUTION:
Reversing battery polarity may result in personal injury caused by the sudden discharge of
electrolyte from the battery vents and/or the
sudden rupture of the battery case by explosion
of internal hydrogen gas. Always establish the
correct polarity before connecting cables to the
battery or battery circuit.
NOTICE:
Never use the emergency shutdown system, except in
an emergency. Use of the emergency shutdown can
cause lubricating oil to be sucked past the blower oil
seals and into the air stream and may also cause
blower and turbocharger damage.
NOTICE:
Jump starting with voltages greater than those indicated or reversing battery polarity may damage the
ECM (Electronic Control Module). Failure to
observe this precaution can also result in alternator
and/or equipment damage.
12
The DDEC engine is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. There are
no control racks or mechanical linkages to adjust.
This system not only helps to improve fuel economy
and engine performance, it also helps to reduce cold
starting time and may increase initial idle speed for
fast engine warm-up and virtual elimination of cold
smoke.
The DDEC engine has no mechanical governor. Engine horsepower, torque, idle, and engine
speed are contained in the internal electronics.
Therefore, there are no mechanical governor spring
adjustments for idle and high speed control.
There is no need for a throttle delay, since
emission control is performed through the Electronic
Control Module (ECM).
When used, the Electronic Foot Pedal Assembly,
or EFPA, eliminates the need for any throttle linkage.
The DDEC engine has the ability to perform
diagnostics for self-checks and continuous
monitoring of other system components. DDEC
also monitors oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant
level, engine coolant temperature and pressure,
intercooler temperature and (on SCCC units) pressure, intake air temperature, and boost pressure,
crankcase pressure, fuel pressure and temperature,
and remote sensors. This diagnostic system is connected to the Check Engine and Stop Engine
lights to provide a visual warning of a system malfunction.
The DDEC engine may be equipped with an
engine protection system that features a 30
second, stepped-power shutdown or an immediate speed reduction. Both can be programmed
with or without complete shutdown in the event a
major engine malfunction occurs.
The DDEC engine may also have an optional
3-100 minute idle shutdown system. The purpose of this system is to conserve fuel by eliminating
excessive idling and to allow for a turbocharger cool
down period. To activate the shutdown, the transmission must be in neutral, with the parking brake
on. Idling in any other manner will not activate the
five-minute idle shutdown system.
Many more DDEC system options are available.
For complete information on your engine, contact an
authorized Detroit Diesel distributor.
DDEC OPTIONS
DDEC III Industrial Engines
Detroit Diesel engines equipped with DDEC III electronic control systems are identified by a K in the
sixth position of the model number. Example:
91637K11.
NOTICE:
If the warning lights stay on, or if they do not come
on momentarily after turning on the ignition, consult
with a DDEC technician. Operating the engine
under these circumstances may result in engine
damage.
Engines having the Detroit Diesel Electronic Control
(DDEC) can be equipped with a variety of options
designed to warn the operator of an engine malfunction. The options can range from Check
Engine and Stop Engine panel lights to automatic
reduction in engine power followed by optional automatic engine shutdown. The power-down shutdown
or propulsion cutout option may be activated by low
coolant level, low oil pressure, high oil temperature,
high coolant temperature, low engine or intercooler
coolant pressure, high intercooler coolant temperature, or high crankcase pressure.
The cause of the shutdown must be determined
before attempting to restart the engine.
13
NOTICE:
NOTICE:
When the Stop Engine light comes on, the computer has detected a major malfunction in the
engine that requires immediate attention. It is the
operators responsibility to safely pull the vehicle off
the road as quickly as possible and shut down the
engine to avoid serious damage.
Engine Protection
The Stop Engine malfunction is recorded in the
Electronic Control Module. With the 30 second shutdown option, the engine will begin a 30 second,
ramped power down. The unit will shut down completely only if programmed for shutdown.
To allow for the possibility of the Stop Engine
automatic shutdown function being activated while
the vehicle is operating in a critical situation, an override may be provided.
In this situation the operator may elect to override the automatic stop engine sequence by pressing the Stop Engine Override switch, located on
the instrument panel, until a safe stop can be made.
The operator only needs to press the override switch
every 15 to 20 seconds to prevent engine shutdown
from occurring.
14
NOTICE:
If the vehicle is equipped with an OEM-supplied diagnostic switch which connects pins A and M in the
Diagnostic Data Reader connector together, the
switch must not be switched on when operating the
vehicle. If this is done while operating on the limiting
speed governor, the diagnostic mode line will be
grounded, and the throttle will be forced to idle,
affecting vehicle operation. The diagnostic mode will
have no effect on engine operation while operating
on the variable speed governor.
CAUTION:
The operator of a DDEC-equipped engine
should know the extent of the warning system
on his vehicle in order to bring it to a safe stop
in the event of an engine malfunction. A
description of the warning system and detailed
instructions regarding its operation should be
obtained from the owner, the seller, or the manufacturer of the vehicle. This information may
also be obtained from any authorized Detroit
Diesel service outlet.
To be confronted with a power down/shutdown situation without knowing how the DDEC
system works could cause the vehicle to stop
in an unsafe location, posing the possibility of
damage to the vehicle and a threat to the safety
of the operator.

CEL EXAMPLES
Marine Engines
Marine engines having Detroit Diesel Electronic
Controls (DDEC) can be equipped with two display
options designed to warn the operator of an engine
malfunction. The options are an electronic display
module panel (page 10) that displays critical powertrain parameters or a DDEC imaging system (page 10)
display that includes many vessel functions as well.
The DDEC engine is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. There
are no control racks or mechanical linkages to
adjust. This system not only helps to improve fuel
economy and engine performance, it also helps to
reduce cold starting time and increase initial idle
speed for fast warm-up and reduction of cold
smoke.
The DDEC engine has no mechanical governor.
Engine horsepower, torque, idle, and engine speed
schedules are contained in the internal electronics.
Therefore, there are no mechanical governor spring
adjustments for idle and high speed control.
There is no need for a throttle delay either,
since emission control is performed through the
Electronic Control Module (ECM).
There is no throttle linkage to go out of adjustment.
DDEC engines have the ability to perform diagnostics for self-checks and continuous monitoring of other system components. Depending on
the application, DDEC can also monitor oil temperature, coolant temperature, oil pressure, coolant pressure, fuel spill pressure, coolant level, and remote
sensors (if used). This diagnostic system is connected to the Check Engine and Stop Engine lights
and the bridge displays to provide a visual warning
of a system malfunction.
In the event a major engine malfunction occurs,
such as low oil pressure, high oil temperature, low
coolant level, or high coolant temperature, the Stop
Engine and Check Engine lights are turned on.
The electronic displays at the bridge present the
diagnostic code numbers and a brief word description of the fault on the display screen.
NOTICE:
When the Stop Engine light comes on or the word
STOP appears on the display screen, the computer
has detected a major malfunction in the engine that
requires immediate attention. It is the operator's
responsibility to shut down the engine to avoid serious damage.
The conditions that will cause the Stop Engine
light to come on for marine applications are:
Loss of Coolant
High Oil Temperature
Low Oil Pressure
Auxiliary Warning
High Crankcase Pressure
Engine Overspeed
High Engine or Intercooler Coolant Temperature
High Engine Oil Temperature
Low Engine or Intercooler Coolant Temperature
NOTE: The CEL flashing gives both active and inactive codes.
17
18
NOTICE:
The diagnostic switch on the MIM must NOT be
switched on when operating the vessel. If this is
done, the diagnostic mode line will be grounded, and
fuel injection timing will be altered, affecting engine
operation.
Welding Precaution
NOTICE:
To prevent damage to the DDEC electronic control
system, disconnect the following before welding:
battery power and ground cables and the 6-pin
power connector at the ECM (Electronic Control
Module). Failure to isolate the DDEC system
from high current can result in severe ECM
damage.
CAUTION:
The operator of a DDEC-equipped engine
should know the extent of the warning system
on his vessel in order to bring it to a safe stop in
the event of an engine malfunction. A description of the warning system and detailed instructions regarding its operation should be
obtained from the owner, the seller, or the manufacturer of the vessel. This information may
also be obtained from any authorized Detroit
Diesel service outlet.
CAUTION:
The operator of a DDEC-equipped vessel must
not attempt to use or read a diagnostic data
reader of any kind while the unit is operating.
Doing so can result in loss of vessel control,
which may cause vessel damage and may
result in personal injury.
When engine or electronics system diagnosis
is required on a DDEC-equipped vessel, this
must be done by a person other than the operator. The operator must maintain control of the
moving vessel while the assistant performs the
diagnosis.

ENGINE SYSTEMS
Electrical System
Fuel System
Exhaust System
Hot exhaust gas flowing from the exhaust manifold(s)
into the exhaust riser(s) is used to drive the turbocharger(s).
Lubrication System
The lubricating oil system consists of an oil pump, oil
cooler, full flow oil filters, bypass valves at the oil
cooler and filter(s), and pressure regulator and relief
valves at the lube oil pump and in the cylinder block
main oil gallery.
Air System
In the air system used on Series 149 engines, outside air drawn into the engine passes through the air
filters, air separators, or air silencers and is pulled into
the turbochargers, where it is compressed. It then
moves through the blowers, where it is further compressed. Intercoolers before the blower may be used
to further increase the density of the charge. The air
then flows into the cylinders, where it mixes with
atomized fuel from the injectors.
Dry type air cleaners are used on Detroit Diesel
engines. For optimum protection of the engine from
dust and other airborne contaminants, service these air
cleaners when the maximum allowable air restriction
has been reached, or annually.
Cooling System
Radiator/fan cooling systems are used on engines in
off-highway, industrial, and generator set applications.
Heat exchanger/raw water pump systems or keel
cooling systems are used on marine engines. Each
system has a centrifugal type fresh water pump to circulate coolant within the engine. Some engines may
also have a separate circuit charge cooling (SCCC)
circuit to supply coolant to the intercoolers.
21
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
To avoid personal injury when working near the
engine, always remove loose items of clothing
or jewelry that could get caught in a moving
part of the engine and cause personal injury.
Safety glasses and hearing protection must
also be worn.
Those with long hair should tie hair back or contain it in a hat to prevent possible entanglement
with the fan, pulleys, or belts.
Be especially cautious when working on vehicles equipped with electric fans, since these
fans may start without warning to meet engine
cooling demands.
CAUTION:
To avoid personal injury (burns, eye injury) from
the hot oil, do not operate the engine with rocker covers removed for any reason.
CAUTION:
Personal injury and/or engine damage may
result from direct, physical contact with the
vibration damper of an operating engine. This
may occur if tools or other objects strike or
become lodged behind the damper during
operation. An object coming in contact with the
damper of an operating engine may be thrown
off with force, becoming a dangerous projectile
which could cause personal injury, property
damage, or both.
CAUTION:
Personal injury and/or property damage may
result from fire due to the leakage of flammable
fluids such as fuel or lubricating oil. Contain
and eliminate all leaks as they occur.
22
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
If cleaning of an engine component should
become necessary prior to replacement, follow
the solvent manufacturers usage, handling,
and disposal instructions and observe all manufacturer cautions. Improper use of caustic
chemicals may result in personal injury.
CAUTION:
To prevent possible personal injury when using
compressed air, wear adequate eye protection
(face plate or safety glasses) and do not exceed
40 psi (276 kPa) air pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not apply compressed air to any part of the
body or clothing. Compressed air directed at
the face or body may cause eye or hearing
injury or other serious physical injury.

drain the coolant until the engine has cooled.
Once the engine has cooled, use extreme caution when removing the cap. The sudden
release of pressure from a heated cooling system can result in a loss of coolant and possible
personal injury (scalding, eye injury, etc.) from
the hot liquid.
CAUTION:
Personal injury and/or property damage may
result from fire due to the leakage of flammable
fluids such as fuel or lubricating oil. Contain
and eliminate all leaks as they occur.
NOTICE:
To ensure proper inhibiting, make sure coolant filter/inhibitor plumbing system shutoff valve(s) are
fully open after installing a new element.
Make a daily visual check for cooling system leaks,
and make corrections immediately.
Item 6 Battery
CAUTION:
To avoid possible personal injury and/or engine
damage from accidental engine startup, always
disconnect the battery before servicing the
electrical system. To avoid alternator damage
when removing battery connections, disconnect the negative () terminal first. Reconnect
the negative terminal last.
Eye
CAUTION:
To avoid personal injury (burns from the turbocharger or engine) or turbocharger damage,
do not remove, attach, or tighten turbocharger
air intake ducting while the engine is operating
or operate the engine with the ducting
removed.
29
CAUTION:
Battery electrolyte is a solution of sulfuric acid.
Avoid contact with clothing, skin, and eyes.
30
CAUTION:
Reversing battery polarity can result in personal
injury caused by the sudden discharge of electrolyte from the battery vents and/or the sudden rupture of the battery case caused by
explosion of internal hydrogen gas. Always
establish correct polarity before connecting
cables to the battery or battery circuit.

NOTICE:
Failure to follow recommended application information
and recommended procedures for installation, care,
maintenance, and storage of belts may result in failure
to perform properly, which may result in severe engine
damage. Make sure the belt selected for any application is recommended for that service.
Environmental Conditions Exposing the belt
to extreme temperatures and engine fluids must
be avoided.
Abrasive Materials Belt ribs should be free of
small stones, sand, metal shavings, etc.
Foreign Objects Belt interference with objects
protruding into the path of belt drive and contacting the belt must be removed.
Belts may also make noise. A high-pitched howl or
rasping sound during engine acceleration or deceleration may be caused by insufficient belt tension.
32
CAUTION:
Do not touch battery terminals, alternator terminals, or wiring cables while the engine is
operating. Severe electrical shock, which may
lead to personal injury, may result from improper shielding of electrical components.
Terminals should be checked every 300 hours for
corrosion and loose connections and wiring inspected for damaged or frayed insulation. Have wiring
repaired or replaced, as required.
Precautions must be taken when working on or
around the alternator. The diodes and transistors in
the alternator circuit are very sensitive and can be
easily destroyed.
NOTICE:
Do not use the emergency shutdown for normal or
routine engine stopping. Failure to observe this precaution can result in serious blower seal damage.
NOTICE:
If the emergency air shutdown is used to stop the
engine in an emergency situation, always have the
shutdown checked for damage and for proper operation before the engine is returned to service. This is
especially important if shutdown is made at high
engine rpm. To ensure positive valve closure, should
another emergency shutdown be required, the shutdown must be checked and required repairs or adjustments made at this time. Failure to observe this
precaution may permit engine run-on when the
emergency shutdown is activated.
CAUTION:
5. Never use a fast charger with the batteries connected or as a booster for battery output.

Synthetic Oils
Lubricants meeting these criteria have provided maximum engine life when used in conjunction with recommended oil drain and filter maintenance schedules.
API Performance category CF-2 represents an
enhanced level of lubricant performance over the CD-II
category which it replaces. Only API CF-2 oils should
be used.
Sulfated Ash content as determined by ASTM D874 is limited to 0.8 % mass in Series 149 engines.
Although not required, these lower ash oils may also
be used in all series DDC two-cycle engines.
Engine oils meeting military specification Mil-L-2104
are intended for use in military engines. Due to the
specific operating and life cycle requirements of military engines, the oils for these engines tend to be specialized toward that application. Military specified oils
(Mil-L-2104 suffixes A through F) should not be used in
commercial Detroit Diesel two-stroke cycle engines.
A more detailed description of each of these selection criteria may be found in a further section of this
publication. Certain engine operating conditions may
require exceptions to these requirements:
Synthetic oils may be used in Detroit Diesel engines provided they are API licensed and meet the performance
and chemical requirements of non-synthetic oils outlined
in this publication. However, only synthetic oils that do not
contain viscosity improver additives may be used in
Detroit Diesel two-stroke cycle engines. Their use does
not permit extension of recommended oil drain intervals.
Product information about synthetic oils should be
reviewed carefully. Synthetic oils offer improved low temperature flow properties and high temperature oxidation
resistance. However, they are generally more costly than
non-synthetic oils. Performance additive systems often
respond differently in synthetic oils.
39
Marine Lubricants,
Railroad Diesel Lubricants
The petroleum industry markets specialty lubricants for
diesel engines designed specifically for marine propulsion or railroad locomotive use. These oils are characterized by their high TBN and the absence of magnesium and zinc in their composition. These lubricants
take into consideration the unique environments and
operational characteristics of this type of duty, and
consequently, they are formulated quite differently from
the types of lubricants specified by Detroit Diesel.
Marine and railroad lubricants may be used in DDC
two-stroke cycle engines provided they are SAE 40 viscosity grade and API CF-2.
Specific product selection should be based on demonstrated performance provided by the oil supplier.

Fuel Additives
Detroit Diesel engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels. Some fuels may be
marketed which contain performance additives and are
identified as premium diesel fuels. Detroit Diesel engines
do not require the use of such fuels; however, they may
be used at the customers discretion, if they meet the
properties shown in Table 5.
Water Contamination
Some fuel additives provide temporary benefit when
fuel is contaminated with water. They are not intended
to replace good fuel handling practices. Where water
contamination is a concern, the fuel system should be
equipped with a fuel/water separator which should be
serviced regularly. In marine and other environments
where microbe growth is a problem, a fungicide such
as Biobor JF (or equivalent) may be used. Microbial
activity may be confirmed with commercially available
test kits. Follow the manufacturers instructions for
treatment. Avoid the use of fungicides containing
halogenated compounds, since these may cause fuel
system corrosion.
When small amounts of water are present, supplemental additives containing methyl carbitol or butyl cellusolve are effective. Follow the manufacturers instructions for their use. The use of isopropyl alcohol is no
longer recommended due to its negative effect on fuel
lubricity.
Cetane Improvers
Emission Control Additives
Detergents
Combustion Improvers
Smoke Suppressants
Cold Weather Flow Improvers
Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is to be used, the following is intended to provide
guidance to the customer in evaluating potential safety
hazards and deleterious engine effects. Detroit Diesel
will not test or verify the performance of any supplemental fuel additives.
1. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) should be
carefully reviewed for special handling instructions
and hazardous material content. Additives containing hazardous materials should not be used
due to personal safety risk.
2. A detailed compositional analysis should be provided by the supplier. Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not be present. Additives containing calcium, barium, zinc,
phosphorous, sodium, magnesium, iron, copper,
and manganese are known to cause combustion
ash deposits which can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affect cylinder
life. Halogenated compounds containing chloride,
fluoride, and bromide are corrosive, as are some
sulfurcontaining compounds. The use of additives with these components should be avoided.
3. Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives, particularly those marketed as
premium diesel fuel. Any supplemental additive

Filtration
46
NOTICE:
If the oil level is constantly above normal and excess
lube oil has not been added to the crankcase, consult with an authorized Detroit Diesel service outlet
for the cause. Fuel or coolant dilution of lube oil can
result in serious engine damage.
2. Dispose of the used oil and filter in an environmentally approved manner according to state
and/or federal (EPA) recommendations.
47
NOTE: The Fuel Pro 40 system is not recommended for use on marine engines. The Sea Pro 600 system is recommended only as a primary filter.
NOTICE:
Overtightening may distort or crack the filter
adapter.

CAUTION:
To prevent possible personal injury when using
compressed air, wear adequate eye protection
(face plate or safety glasses) and do not exceed
40 psi (276 kPa) air pressure.
VENT FITTING
NOTICE:
To avoid fuel injector damage at engine start-up,
Series 149 fuel systems must be primed whenever
fuel filters are changed. Refer to How to Prime
the Fuel System (page 52) for priming instructions.

When topping off the coolant, use the same concentration of PowerCool 3149, DD-3000, and water as
originally installed.
Since Series 149 engine applications do not have aluminum in their cooling systems, the use of PowerCool
3149 SCA should provide all the protection required.
However, many systems have add-on components
which may contain aluminum. The use of a moderate
amount of DD-3000 at initial fill as indicated above will
protect these components with a safe level of silicate.
6. At normal maintenance intervals check nitrite levels
with PowerTrac strips and add PowerCool 3149
only when the nitrite level drops below 800 PPM in
either antifreeze or water-only cooling systems. No
other SCAs are required or should be used.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the pressure control cap from
the heat exchanger tank or radiator or attempt
to drain the coolant until the engine has
cooled. Once the engine has cooled, use
extreme care when removing the cap. The
sudden release of pressure from a heated
cooling system can result in a loss of coolant
and possible personal injury (scalding) from
the hot liquid.
NOTICE:
Failure to install a new gasket and tighten cover
bolts securely can result in pump leakage at
start-up.
55
56
NOTICE:
Failure to prime the raw water pump may result in
damage to the flexible pump impeller and engine
overheating.
NOTICE:
Failure to properly fill the cooling system and
purge it of air can result in engine overheating
and severe engine damage.
NOTICE:
If the engine overheats and the coolant level is
satisfactory, the cooling system may require
cleaning with a descaling solvent and back
flushing. Authorized Detroit Diesel service outlets
are properly equipped to perform these services.
In addition to the cleaning procedure, other components of the cooling system should be checked
periodically to keep the engine operating at peak
efficiency:
