ENGINE ASSEMBLY COMPRESSION TEST (Cont).
3.
Install adapter (4) and cylinder compression tester
(3) in fuel injection nozzle bore (5).
WARNING
Stay clear of rotating fan blades when
cranking engine. Failure to follow this
warning may result in serious injury to

compression reading on cylinder compression tester
(3).
5.
Remove cylinder compression tester (3) and adapter
(4) from fuel injection nozzle bore (5).
6.
Repeat steps 3 through 5 for remaining fuel injection nozzle bores (5). Compression readings must be greater than
350 psi (2413 kPa) and difference between highest and lowest compression readings must be less than 50 psi (344
kPa). If compression readings are within specification, proceed to step 9.
7.
Using hand oiler, apply four squirts of lubricating oil on piston rings on cylinder being tested through fuel injection
nozzle bore (5).
8.
Repeat steps 3 through 5. If compression reading is below specification, worn or sticking valves or head gasket are
indicated. If compression reading is higher than previous compression reading, worn or sticking piston rings are
indicated.
9.
Install fuel injection nozzles (see paragraph 4-23).
10. Connect fuel injection pump connector (1) to connector (2).
FOLLOW-ON TASKS:
