Injection Pump Timing

NOTE: Before starting timing procedure, check valve timing and drive belt tension.
  1. Set crankshaft to TDC on No. 1 cylinder and align marks on flywheel and clutch housing. Check marks on injection pump sprocket and mounting plate.
  2. If timing adjustment is necessary, remove plug from injection pump cover and install adapter and dial indicator in place of plug. Push in cold start device completely.
  3. Preload dial indicator (2066) to .097" (2.5mm). Slowly turn engine counterclockwise until dial indicator needle stops moving. Zero indicator.
  4. Turn engine clockwise until TDC mark on flywheel lines up with reference mark. Check dial indicator reading. See DIESEL FUEL INJECTION PUMP TIMING SPECIFICATIONS.
  5. If necessary, loosen bolts on mounting plate and support. Turn pump to adjust timing and tighten bolts. Recheck dial indicator readings.
