Injection pumps with one piece injection pump sprocket

  • ‒ → Turn crankshaft to TDC No. 1 cylinder -arrow-.
  • ‒ Lock camshaft with setting bar.
  • ‒ Centralize setting bar as follows:
    Turn camshaft so that one end of setting bar contacts the cylinder head. Using feeler gauge establish the gap at the other end of the setting bar. Place a feeler gauge corresponding to half the gap between setting bar and cylinder head. Turn camshaft until the setting bar contacts the feeler gauge. Place a 2nd feeler gauge, of same thickness, at the other end between setting bar and cylinder head.
  • ‒ Remove toothed belt from camshaft and injection pump sprockets.
  • ‒ Remove injection pump sprocket securing nut.
 
V23-0077
  • ‒ → Loosen puller arms and offer up.
  • ‒ Locate puller arms through holes in injection pump sprocket and tighten.
  • ‒ Place injection pump sprocket under tension with puller.
  • ‒ Release injection pump sprocket from injection pump taper by tapping on spindle of puller -arrow- (thereby hold sprocket so that it does not fall off).
  • ‒ Remove all fuel pipes from pump and cover openings with clean cloth.

Note:

Use open ring spanner 3035 to remove high pressure fuel pipes.

  • ‒ Remove engine shut-off cable.
  • ‒ Detach accelerator and cold start accelerator cable.
 
V23-0286
  • ‒ → Remove securing bolts from console -arrows-.

Note:

On no account should the bolts holding the injection pump head be loosened. Loosening these bolts allows the head to cant and caurses the distributor plungers to fracture.

 
V23-0289
  • ‒ → Remove bolt from rear support -arrow-.

Installing

  • ‒ Install injection pump and align to centre position in the flange elongated holes.
    Tightening torque:
         Securing bolts:          25 Nm
         Fuel pipes:          25 Nm
         Injection pump sprocket:     45 Nm

Note:

Do not interchange fuel supply and return pipe banjo bolts the return pipe banjo bolt has a smaller internal diameter and "OUT" is marked on the hexagon head.

 
V23-0019
  • ‒ → Install injection pump sprocket and lock in position with pin 2064.
  • ‒ Loosen camshaft sprocket securing bolt 1/2 turn. Release camshaft sprocket from camshaft taper by tapping with a hammer (using a drift through rear toothed belt guard opening).
  • ‒ Check whether TDC mark on flywheel and reference mark are aligned.
  • ‒ Place toothed belt on and remove injection pump sprocket locating pin.
 
V23-0098
  • ‒ → Tension toothed belts (turn tensioner with pin wrench e.g. Matra V159 -arrow- to right).
         Scale value: 12 ... 13
    measured between camshaft sprocket and injection pump sprocket.
  • ‒ Tighten camshaft sprocket securing bolt to
    45 Nm.
  • ‒ Remove setting bar.
  • ‒ Turn crankshaft two rotations in engine D.O.R. and again check toothed belt tension.
  • ‒ Checking injection timing
  • ‒ Checking and adjusting idling speed and governed speed => Page 23-32
 
V23-0169

Injection pumps with two-part injection pump sprocket

  • ‒ Remove air cleaner.
  • ‒ Remove upper toothed belt guard.
  • ‒ Remove cylinder head cover.
  • ‒ → Turn crankshaft to TDC No. 1 cylinder -arrow-.
  • ‒ Lock camshaft with setting bar.
  • ‒ Centralize setting bar as follows:
    Turn camshaft so that one end of setting bar contacts the cylinder head. Using feeler gauge establish the gap at the other end of the setting bar. Place a feeler gauge corresponding to half the gap between setting bar and cylinder head. Turn camshaft until the setting bar contacts the feeler gauge. Place a 2nd feeler gauge, of same thickness, at the other end between setting bar and cylinder head.
 
N13-0058
  • ‒ → Lock injection pump sprocket with pin 3359.
  • ‒ Loosen injection pump sprocket securing bolts -1-.
  • ‒ Loosen tensioner.
  • ‒ Take off toothed belt.
  • ‒ Remove all fuel pipes from pump and cover openings with clean cloth.

Note:

 
N23-0038

Use open ring spanner 3035 to remove high pressure fuel pipes.

  • ‒ → Separate multi-pin connector -1- and unclip from retainer.
  • ‒ Disconnect earth cable -2-.
  • ‒ Separate connections for oil pressure switch, coolant temperature sender and feed wire for glow plugs.
 
N23-0041
  • ‒ → Remove securing bolts from console -arrows-.
Attention!
On no account must the injection pump hub nut -1- be loosened.
Otherwise the injection pump basic setting will be upset, and it cannot be adjusted with normal workshop equipment.
 
V23-0301
  • ‒ → Remove bolt from rear support -arrow-.
  • ‒ Take off injection pump with multi-pin connector.

Installing

 
N23-0048

→ If the injection pump is replaced, the spade contacts must be pushed out of the multi-pin connector with the spade terminal release tool.

  •      1 -     Spade terminal release tool
  •      2 -     Multi-pin connector

Injections pumps supplied as a replacement part, are not fitted with a multi-pin connector. The spade connectors on the wires must be located in the multi-pin connector in accordance with the current flow diagram:

=> Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding and Fitting locations binder

 
N13-0058
  • ‒ Insert injection pump in console and then tighten securing bolt on rear support with conical nut first.
  • ‒ Insert front securing bolts and tighten to 25 Nm.
  • ‒ → Fit injection pump sprocket, screw in securing bolts -1- loosely and align to middle position in the elongated holes.
  • ‒ Lock injection pump sprocket with pin 3359.
 
V13-0897
  • ‒ → Loosen camshaft sprocket securing bolt 1/2 turn. Release camshaft sprocket from camshaft taper by tapping with a hammer (using a drift through rear toothed belt guard opening).
  • ‒ Fit toothed belt to injection pump sprocket and tensioning roller.
  • ‒ Fit camshaft sprocket together with toothed belt and locate with securing bolt (camshaft sprocket can still turn).
 
N13-0027
  • ‒ → Turn tensioning roller with pin wrench (e.g. Matra V159) to right until notch aligns with raised portion (arrows).
  • ‒ Tighten lock nut on tensioning roller.
         Tightening torque: 20 Nm
  • ‒ Check again whether TDC mark on flywheel and reference mark are aligned.
  • ‒ Tighten camshaft sprocket securing bolt to
    45 Nm.
  • ‒ Tighten injection pump sprocket securing bolts to
         25 Nm.
  • ‒ Remove setting bar.
  • ‒ Remove pin.
  • ‒ Turn crankshaft two rotations in engine D.O.R. and set again to TDC No. 1 cylinder.
 
N13-0058
  • ‒ → Check whether injection pump sprocket can be locked with pin 3359.

If the injection pump sprocket cannot be locked:

  • ‒ Loosen injection pump securing bolts -1-.
  • ‒ Turn injection pump sprocket hub until the pin fits.
  • ‒ Tighten injection pump sprocket securing bolts to
         25 Nm.
  • ‒ Reconnect injection pipes, fuel pipes and electrical wiring.

Note:

Do not interchange fuel supply and return pipe banjo bolts the return pipe banjo bolt has a smaller internal diameter and "OUT" is marked on the hexagon head.

  • ‒ Install toothed belt guard, cylinder head cover and air cleaner.
