COOLING SYSTEM REVIEW WORKSHEET


Directions: The following are true or false. Enter T for true and F for false. If false, circle the word or
words that make the statement false and replace with a word or words that make the statement correct.

1. When the engine is cold, the temperature regulator directs the flow of coolant to the radiator
and prevents the flow of coolant back to the water pump.

2. An increase in cooling system pressure will lower the boiling point of the coolant.

3. Rate of heat transfer is measured by the specific heat properties of a given liquid.

4. Water with a high chloride concentration is best for cooling system usage.

5. Coolant conditioner is not necessary in cooling systems that use distilled water.

6. A 40% concentration of antifreeze in water will protect the cooling system to approximately
-40o Fahrenheit.

7. When filling the cooling system, never fill faster than 5 gallons per minute.

8. An engine should never be operated with the temperature regulators removed.

9. When measuring the temperatures in the cooling system, the temperature in the radiator top
tank should be below the coolant boiling point.

10. The temperature of the water pump outlet must be approximately 8o to 20oF above the
temperature in the radiator top tank.

11. The most common cause of engine overcooling is temperature regulators stuck closed.

12. High sulfur fuel will cause increased engine wear during overcooling when the operating
temperature is below 175oF

13. Caterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) or a commercial ELC that meets the Caterpillar
specification (EC-1) is the preferred antifreeze to use in Cat engines.

14. Commercial coolant/antifreeze that only meets the ASTM D3306 specification is acceptable
for use in Caterpillar engines.

15. The service life for the Caterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) is for 5000 hours.

16. Caterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) does not require a frequent addition of a
Supplemental Coolant Additive (SLC) only an extender needs to be added at 3000 hours or
every two years.

17. The effectiveness of the Caterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) is reduced is it is mixed
with other types of antifreeze such as Caterpillar (DEAC)

Standard Pump Component Checklist

Directions: During a lab, use this sheet as a checklist when identifying components.
The pump group consists of the following components:
A variable displacement, overcenter piston pump provides flow to drive a bi-directional motor.
The actuator piston controls the angle of the pump swashplate.
The charge pump charges the system at start-up and provides makeup oil. Oil is directed by the
charge pump through the filter group, which cleans all the oil before entering the drive pump and
motor. The charge pump also provides the source for signal pressure to control the pump and
motor. The signal pressure will vary proportionally to the engine speed. The higher the engine
speed, the higher the signal pressure.
A speed sensing valve senses the charge flow and converts some of it to signal oil. The orifice in
the speed sensing valve creates a pressure differential which is proportional to engine speed. This
pressure differential is then multiplied by the speed sensing valve by a factor of approximately 7:1
and becomes signal oil. This signal is then used to control the pump and motor. The speed
sensing valve sends the signal to the FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE (FNR) valve and the
motor displacement control valve. The speed sensing valve sends oil not used for signal oil to the
remainder of the charge circuit.
An orifice in the signal line above the speed sensing valve allows the pressure override valve and
the hystat brake valve to function as designed. Without the orifice, the speed sensing valve would
compensate for flow loss through the hystat brake valve, thereby negating the braking capability
of the valve, or would decrease the ability of the pressure override valve to limit the maximum
drive loop pressure. A screen before the orifice reduces plugging of the orifice.
The combination crossover relief and makeup valves will open to protect the system by either
maintaining a minimum pressure or reducing pressure spikes in the drive loop. At machine start-
up, the valves open to direct oil to both sides of the pump and motor.
The charge pump relief valve limits the pressure of the oil not sent through the speed sensing
valve. The valve also limits the maximum hystat system pressure in NEUTRAL and the
maximum implement pilot system pressure.
The FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE (FNR) valve consists of a spool and two solenoids.
When one of the solenoids is energized by the electronic shift lever, the spool is shifted and sends
signal oil to actuate the pump to provide flow for the direction selected.
The pressure override valve limits the maximum drive loop pressure. A ball resolver senses the
highest drive loop pressure. When this pressure reaches a specified limit, the override valve will
open and send oil in the signal line to case drain, reducing the signal pressure and causing the
motor to upstroke and the pump to destroke. When the motor is upstroked or the pump is
destroked, machine speed is reduced.
A filter bypass valve and switch are part of the filter group. If the filter is plugged, the bypass
valve opens and the switch closes to turn on an indicator lamp in the operator's compartment. The
indicator lamp stays on as long as the valve is open. With cold oil, the bypass valve opens and the
indicator lamp lights temporarily. The lamp goes out when the oil reaches a specified
temperature.
BCP 914G/IT14G - 43 - Student Materials
12/1/98

Standard Motor Component Checklist

Directions: During a lab, use this sheet as a checklist when identifying components.
The motor group consists of the following components:
A bi-directional, variable displacement, bent axis piston motor and actuator convert hydraulic
power into mechanical power. The power is transmitted into a gear box mounted to the the rear
axle. Power is also sent to the front axle by a drive shaft. The motor actuator piston controls the
motor displacement by changing the angle of the rotating group relative to its output shaft. The
higher the stroke or displacement, the higher the torque and lower the speed. The lower the
stroke, the lower the torque and higher the speed.
A throttle pin (orifice check valve) controls motor stroking time. The orifice slows the actuator
movement from minimum stroke to maximum stroke.
A motor displacement control valve senses the signal from the speed sensing valve. The valve
compares the signal with the drive loop pressure to control the motor actuator piston. When the
accelerator is depressed more, the signal pressure increases to destroke the motor. If the drive
pressure increases, the motor upstrokes.
A speed selector valve which, when energized, blocks the signal oil from reaching the motor
displacement valve. Since the motor stays fully stroked, machine speed is reduced to improve
loading performance. The speed selector valve is controlled by either the optional "creeper" valve
or a switch on the left side of the front console.
A reverse solenoid valve which, when energized, sends the REVERSE drive loop pressure to the
motor displacement control valve and actuator. In FORWARD, the reverse solenoid is de-
energized and the FORWARD drive loop pressure goes to the motor displacement control valve
and actuator. By stroking the motor with the higher drive loop pressure, hystat driving response is
improved and, during hydrostatic braking, system stability is maximized.
A flushing valve continuously drains some oil from the low pressure side of the drive loop
through the motor bearings to case drain. This action purges heat, debris and air from the drive
loop.
The hystat brake valve is controlled by the same pedal as the service brake. As the brake pedals
are depressed, the hystat brake valve allows signal oil to go to the tank, which causes the motor to
upstroke (if not already at maximum angle) and the pump to destroke. Engaging the brakes will
not reduce the engine speed, permitting faster implement speed due to higher flow from the
implement pump.
The optional "creeper" valve drains the signal oil from the speed sensing valve to the tank. This
action limits the machine speed and can also limit rimpull.

High Speed Pump Component Checklist

Directions: During a lab, use this sheet as a checklist when identifying components. NOTE: The high
speed machine pump is the same as the standard speed machine pump
The pump group consists of the following components:
A variable displacement, overcenter piston pump provides flow to drive a bi-directional motor.
The actuator piston controls the angle of the pump swashplate.
The charge pump charges the system at start-up and provides makeup oil. Oil is directed by the
charge pump through the filter group, which cleans all the oil before entering the drive pump and
motor. The charge pump also provides the source for signal pressure to control the pump and
small motor. The signal pressure will vary proportionally to the engine speed. The higher the
engine speed, the higher the signal pressure.
A speed sensing valve senses the charge flow and converts some of it to signal oil. The orifice in
the speed sensing valve creates a pressure differential which is proportional to engine speed. This
pressure differential is then multiplied by the speed sensing valve by a factor of approximately 7:1
and becomes signal oil. This signal is then used to control the pump and the small motor. The
large motor is controlled by the motor displacement signal control valve. The speed sensing valve
sends the signal to the FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE (FNR) valve and the small motor
displacement control valve. The speed sensing valve sends oil not used for signal oil to the
remainder of the charge circuit.
An orifice in the signal line above the speed sensing valve allows the pressure override valve and
the hystat brake valve to function as designed. Without the orifice, the speed sensing valve would
compensate for flow loss through the hystat brake valve, thereby negating the braking capability
of the valve, or would decrease the ability of the pressure override valve to limit the maximum
drive loop pressure. A screen before the orifice reduces plugging of the orifice.
The combination crossover relief and makeup valves will open to protect the system by either
maintaining a minimum pressure or reducing pressure spikes in the drive loop. At machine start-
up, the valves open to direct oil to both sides of the pump and motor.
The charge pump relief valve limits the pressure of the oil not sent through the speed sensing
valve. The valve also limits the maximum hystat system pressure in NEUTRAL and the
maximum implement pilot system pressure.
The FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE (FNR) valve consists of a spool and two solenoids.
When one of the solenoids is energized by the Electronic Control Module (ECM), the spool is
shifted and sends signal oil to actuate the pump to provide flow for the direction selected.
The pressure override valve limits the maximum drive loop pressure. A ball resolver senses the
highest drive loop pressure. When this pressure reaches a specified limit, the override valve will
open and send oil in the signal line to case drain, reducing the signal pressure and causing the
motor to upstroke and the pump to destroke. When the motor is upstroked or the pump is
destroked, machine speed is reduced.

High Speed Pump Component Checklist (continued)

A filter bypass valve and switch are part of the filter group. If the filter is plugged, the bypass
valve opens and the switch closes to turn on an indicator lamp in the operator's compartment. The
indicator lamp stays on as long as the valve is open. With cold oil, the bypass valve opens and the
indicator lamp lights temporarily. The lamp goes out when the oil reaches a specified
temperature.
The motor displacement signal control valve varies the signal to the large motor to control the
speed of the motor. In the HIGH speed range, the motor displacement signal control valve is
controlled by the Electronic Control Module (ECM). At approximately 500 rpm motor drive shaft
speed, the ECM causes the motor displacement signal control valve to start destroking the large
motor. At 2000 rpm, the large motor is fully destroked. In the LOW speed range, the motor
displacement signal control valve is not energized and the large motor stays upstroked to limit
vehicle speed so the higher engine speed can be used to improve implement performance. The
LOW speed range can be obtained by moving the optional "creeper" valve lever or by the speed
selector switch located in the right console (on machines without the "creeper" valve option).

Additional System Components:


The hystat brake valve is controlled by the same pedal as the service brake. As the brake pedals
are depressed, the hystat brake valve allows signal oil to go to the tank, which causes the motor to
upstroke (if not already at maximum angle) and the pump to destroke. Engaging the brakes will
not reduce the engine speed, permitting faster implement speed due to higher flow from the
implement pump.
The optional "creeper" valve drains the signal oil from the speed sensing valve to the tank. This
action limits the machine speed and can also limit rimpull.

High Speed Motors Component Checklist

Directions: During a lab, use this sheet as a checklist when identifying components.
The small motor group consists of the following components:
A bi-directional, variable displacement, bent axis piston motor and actuator convert hydraulic
power into mechanical power. The motor actuator piston controls the motor displacement by
changing the angle of the rotating group relative to its output shaft. The higher the stroke or
displacement, the higher the torque and lower the speed. The lower the stroke, the lower the
torque and higher the speed.
A throttle pin with two orifice grooves controls motor stroking time. The larger orifice groove
slows the actuator movement from minimum stroke to maximum stroke. The smaller orifice
groove slows the actuator movement from maximum stroke to minimum stroke.
A motor displacement control valve senses the signal from the speed sensing valve. The valve
compares the signal with the drive loop pressure to control the motor actuator piston. When the
accelerator is depressed more, the signal pressure increases to destroke the motor. If the drive
pressure increases, the motor upstrokes.
A shuttle valve sends the active drive line pressure (either FORWARD or REVERSE) to the
motor displacement signal control valve valve and actuator. By stroking the motor with the higher
drive loop pressure, hystat driving response is improved and, during hydrostatic braking, system
stability is maximized.
High Speed Motors Component Checklist (continued)

The large motor group consists of the following components:

A bi-directional, variable displacement, bent axis piston motor and actuator convert hydraulic
power into mechanical power. The motor actuator piston controls the motor displacement by
changing the angle of the rotating group relative to its output shaft.
A motor displacement control valve senses a variable signal from the motor displacement signal
control valve and meters the highest drive loop pressure to the motor actuator piston to destroke
the motor. When the accelerator is depressed more, the signal pressure increases to destroke the
motor. If the drive pressure increases, the motor upstrokes.
Two check valves sense the drive loop pressures. The highest drive loop pressure opens one
check valve and seats the other. The drive loop pressure then flows to the motor displacement
control valve. By stroking the motor with the higher drive loop pressure, hystat response is
improved during driving and braking.
A flushing valve continuously drains some oil from the low pressure side of the drive loop
through the motor bearings to case drain. This action purges heat, debris and air from the drive
loop.
A throttle pin (orifice check valve) controls motor stroking time. The orifice slows the actuator
movement from minimum stroke to maximum stroke.

Lesson: Power Train System Tests


BACKGROUND This lesson will allow you gain familiarity performing system checks,
INFORMATION using the Service Manual, and determining if the machine is operating to
specifications.

NOTE: Before operating the machine, a 10 hour or daily inspection should


have been completed which includes checking fluid levels as
specified in the Operation and Maintenance Guide.

Shop Lab
❑ • Using the appropriate service manual module and the "Hydrostatic
System Testing" reference material handout. to perform Tests A-G (as
described in the reference material) on the machine to determine the
machine is set to specification. Pressures that will be checked and/or
adjusted include the following: AB - drive loop pressure, PG - charge
pressure, PS1 - pump signal pressure, PC - pump case pressure, M1 -
motor actuator pressure, M2 - motor actuator pressure (high speed only),
❑ MS - motor signal pressure (high speed only), and cooling loop
pressure.

• Record pressure specifications from the service manual before going to


❑ the shop.

• Remove side panels and/or cab floor plates as needed.

Hystat System Tests

TEST A - Initial Test: The initial test checks the condition of the machine is easy to do. During this
test the charge pressure, pump signal pressure, and engine low idle can be readily adjusted in the field.
If low idle is below the mean, adjust it to slightly above the mean. If the speed sensing valve is
adjusted, pump signal pressure will never become greater than the charge pressure during at high idle.
Make sure the pump signal pressure is at least 600 kPa (90 psi) at low idle before doing the remaining
tests.

TEST B & C - Stall Tests: The Hydrostatic Stall Test and Implement Stall Test must be performed to
determine which system is causing a problem. Test B stalls the hystat system and the implement hydraulic
system independent of each other. The test can be used to identify low engine power problems, pressure override
valve, malfunctioning crossover reliefs, and brake misadjustments. To stall the implement system raise the loader
arms.
For the Hystat Stall Test, the parking brakes and service brakes are used to create a load against the hystat system.
The test MUST be done with the transmission neutralizer (parking brake switch) disabled and with the hystat
linkage disconnected. Machine is on the ground. Note how stalling the hystat system (if the hystat system is
good) has almost no effect on engine rpm. Caution: do not drive through the brakes for more than 15 seconds.
If machine is set correctly, the machine will not drive through the brakes.
Test C stalls the hystat system along with the implement hydraulics and is only required if the pump or motor has
been replaced. Make sure to use the actual high idle reading established during TEST A to compare with the
engine speed for the stall conditions.
TESTS D & E - Pump and Motor Displacement Control Checks
TEST D - Speed Sensing Valve Adjustment or "Start to Drive": can also be done with repeatable
results. If the numbers are off, redo TEST A. The test can be done in either speed mode and should get
the same results. The critical reading is the signal pressure (Note: the tighter signal pressure tolerance.
An optional test is the "Start to Move" test which can be done to accommodate the needs of the
customer.
TEST D- Pump Neutral Adjustment: can be done to make sure the pump is fully destroked. If the
pump is not destroked the machine could move in NEUTRAL.
TEST D - Maximum Runout - checks the maximum machine speed in both speed ranges is more
difficult to do since it is difficult to read all of the gages and ECAP or the multi-tach at the same time.
It may also be difficult to find a stretch of ground long enough for the machine to reach maximum speed
or before the machine begins to "lope" in the FAST MODE. If a slightly inclined slope is used,
maximum can be reached sooner; however, the drive loop pressure will be below the spec. Motor speed
or drive shaft speed is the critical specification. To get reliable results the machine should be off of the
ground. It is suggested that before removing putting the machine up in the air, to perform a "speed trap"
test first. If the speed trap results are acceptable there is no need to get the machine up in the air.
A quick check as to whether the motor is destroking for the FAST MODE is to run the machine at
maximum in the SLOW MODE and then switch into the FAST MODE. If the machine speeds up, then
the motor is destroking; however, the motor or motors may not be properly set to allow the machine to
reach maximum speed.
BCP 914G/IT14G - 49 - Student Materials
12/1/98

TEST E - Motor Displacement Actuator Control Test (M1): checks the motor displacement control
setting to make sure the motor destrokes correctly. Charge pressure is used instead of signal pressure to
get more reliable readings. A special tee must be used. Make sure you have the most current test
procedures available. NOTE: Do not attempt the optional test in the Service Manual if it is still shown,
it is a waste of time and you will not get satisfactory results.

TEST E - Parking Brake and Service Brake Capacity Tests: check the holding capabilities of the
parking brake and service brake against the hystat system.

TEST F - Hystat Brake Inching Valve Tests: Checks the relationship between the hystat
brake/inching valve and the service brakes and should be done; however, expect the stop test to end up
at about 600 kPa (90 psi) for pump signal when AB drive loop pressure is at 6000 kPa (900 psi).
When the service brake pressure reaches 500 kPa (75 psi), the AB - drive loop pressure is at 3000 kPa
(450 psi), the pump signal will be about 300 kPa (45 psi). NOTE: The tests results should show that
there is no overlap at mid-throttle. The hystat is fully braked before the brakes are applied. At higher
engine rpm there will be an overlap. The overlap at the higher rpm will, for instance, help prevent the
machine from rolling down a slope when loading the bucket.

TEST G - Overspeed or Motor Displacement Signal Control Valve Test: This test check to see if
the ECM will work correctly when the machine actually does overspeed. The best method is to use a
signal generator to demonstrate the correct operation of this valve. This test is for the High Speed
machines only
TEST E - Motor Displacement Actuator Control Test (M1): this test is done to determine if the
motor displacement valve is working correctly for the large motor. Once again a signal generator is
used to determine the shift point.

TEST G - Final Test: should be done with the machine off of ground in order to be able to read all of
the gauges. If TEST A, B, C, and D were good, then this test probably isn't required. Only do if a
pump or motor was replaced.

DIRECTIONS Use the provided service manual modules and notes to answer this case
study. A Student Analysis Sheet should be used to record your
conclusions.

SITUATION
The customer's 914G Wheel Loader has 704 service hours on it. The
operator says that the machine is not as productive as it was.
The mechanic performed cycle time tests and checked for maximum
system pressure for all implements. Maximum system pressure was
incorrect for the lift circuit only. He decided to adjust maximum system
pressure.
Did he make the correct decision?
Even if he did make the right decision, what else should be checked? List
at least two other problems that could be preventing movement of the
machine. Describe the tests and the anticipated results.

• Identify fuel system FUEL SYSTEM


components and
functions The fuel system shown here is typical for the fuel injection pump used at
first production. The fuel system component functions are as follows:

The feed or lift pump is used to move fuel from the tank to a higher level
on the machine. The pump is also used to prime the system.

The water separator removes water from the fuel. Since the fuel
injection pump is lubricated by fuel, it is extremely important that water
does not enter the pump. Water will cause the pump to malfunction and
will lead to the rotor and plungers locking up. The water separator should
be serviced daily.

The transfer pump draws fuel from the tank and supplies fuel to the
injection pump.


BCP 914G/IT14G -3- Student Materials
12/1/98

The hydraulic head is machined with bores and passages which allow
fuel to flow to and from a specific point. For example, fuel flows from
the transfer pump to the metering valve or from the metering valve to the
inlet passage to the rotor.

The rotor is located in the hydraulic head. The rotor distributes fuel to
the delivery valves. The rotor has four inlet passages and one outlet
passage. As the rotor turns, fuel enters the passages in the rotor and
forces the plungers in the drive end of the rotor outward. As the rotor
continues to turn, the inlet passage closes. As the plungers are forced
inward by the cam ring and rollers, the fuel pressure in the rotor increases.
At the same time, the outlet passage opens and fuel exits the rotor through
the delivery valves to the injectors.

The transfer pressure regulator controls the fuel transfer pressure within
the injection pump. Transfer pressure will increase as engine speed
increases. The regulator also permits the fuel to bypass the transfer pump
when the fuel system is being primed.

The shutoff solenoid allows fuel to enter the fuel injection pump when
the solenoid is energized. When the key start switch is moved to the OFF
position, the solenoid is de-energized and a spring moves the plunger in
the solenoid to block fuel flow.

The metering valve controls the amount of fuel to the hydraulic head or
rotor. The valve is connected to a mechanical governor and the throttle or
governor control lever. As the metering valve is rotated within the
hydraulic head, a delivery control groove in the valve precisely meters
fuel to the rotor.

A tapered flat on the metering valve works with the light load valve. The
flat is machined in line with the delivery control groove.

The light load valve and metering valve work with two control orifices in
the hydraulic head to override the normal speed advance system. During
low load conditions, the outward travel of the rollers and shoes is reduced
during the rotor filling cycle, which delays the point of roller contact with
the cam lobes resulting in retarded injection. The light load advance
compensates for this delay by advancing injection at reduced fuel levels.
Passageways are drilled within the hydraulic head body to connect the
metering valve "flat" with the pressure end of the advance device (through
a second control orifice) and the pump cambox.


BCP 914G/IT14G -4- Student Materials
12/1/98

As the metering valve is rotated in the hydraulic head by the governor, a


larger or smaller flow path from the advance piston to the cambox is
created. The relationship between the "flat" with the delivery control
groove is arranged so that, as delivery is reduced, flow past the flat is also
reduced. Thus, the pressure signal applied to the advance piston is
increased to advance the timing.

The boost controller adjusts the maximum fuel delivery based on


variations in the boost pressure from the turbocharger. As boost pressure
increases, the scroll plates move and allow the plunger travel to increase.
This action permits an increase in fuel delivery resulting in more engine
horsepower.

The torque trimmer provides a means to regulate the volume of fuel


being delivered at full load. The torque trimmer provides the maximum
amount of fuel in the loadable range of the engine which can be burned
smoke free.

The delivery valves are check valves which open to allow fuel from the
pumping mechanism to the injectors. The valves rapidly reduce pressure
in the injector lines at the end of the injection cycle to ensure a rapid
closure of the injector nozzles and, in conjunction with the cam ring
profile, maintain a residual pressure in the fuel lines to the injectors.

The latch valve prevents transfer pressure from reaching the automatic
advance mechanism during cranking until the engine is started to prevent
premature advance timing.

The automatic advance mechanism progressively advances the start of


injection as engine speed increases. The automatic advance mechanism
causes the cam ring to rotate in the pump housing. The spring in the
mechanism moves the piston and cam ring to retard the timing, while
transfer pressure sensed on the left side of the piston works against the
spring to advance the timing.

The check valve prevents reverse fuel flow from the automatic advance
due to cam loading. The orifice permits fuel to vent from the automatic
advance when the engine rpm are reduced.


BCP 914G/IT14G -5- Student Materials
12/1/98

The cold advance device is used to reduce white smoke by advancing the
engine timing to improve cold idling combustion capability. The cold
advance device is sometimes called a "wax motor" and is a relatively slow
response actuator. At start-up, a check valve prevents transfer pressure
from flowing to the right end of the automatic advance mechanism
preventing the sleeve from moving away from the start advance position.
This action prevents the spring from fully retarding the engine timing.
After the engine is started and allowed to warm up to a specified
temperature, a coolant switch closes and current is sent to the wax motor
causing the wax to melt. As the wax melts, it changes in volume and goes
from a solid to a liquid. After approximately 25 seconds or more, the pin
in the device moves to the left and unseats the check valve. Transfer
pressure then flows to the right end of the automatic advance mechanism
and moves the sleeve to the left against a stop to the normal automatic
advance operating mode.

The fuel return check valve maintains a slight pressure in the fuel
injection pump to ensure good lubrication. The fuel return check valve
also allows hot fuel to bleed from the injection pump to the tank for
cooling.

NOTE: The lift pump is used to assist in priming the fuel system;
however, because of the location of the fuel tank on these machines,
the pump is not as important as on other machines where the tank is
located below the level of the engine.

• Identify components Shown here is a sectional view of the fuel injection pump.
and trace fuel flow
Fuel is drawn by the transfer pump through the pressure regulator and sent
to the metering valve when the solenoid is energized. The fuel also flows
through an annular groove around the rotor to the orifice check valve and
the automatic advance mechanism.

The metering valve controls the amount of fuel sent to the pumping
elements inside the rotor (plungers, cam ring, and shoes). As the rotor
turns, the cam ring forces the shoes and plungers in to increase the fuel
pressure. The pressurized fuel is then directed to the injectors.

NOTE TO THE INSTRUCTOR: The pump shown is not identical to


the pump used on the 914G/IT14G. The pump shown in this view is
not equipped with a boost controller.
