limited repairs to the fuel injection pump
while in warranty and out of warranty.
Water and Debris Contamination
When diagnosing a fuel injection pump,
inspect the pump for water contamination
with the following steps:
1. Remove the timing pin hole plug (A). Timing Pin Hole Plug
Drain fuel from pump into a clean
container and inspect for water and
debris. Inspect timing pin hole for rust
and contamination.
2. Remove the inlet fitting (B) and inspect
fitting and bore for rust and
contamination. Remove inlet fuel screen
(C) and inspect.
Parts:
The following Stanadyne DE10 Fuel Inlet Fuel Screen
Injection Pump service kits are now
available through John Deere Parts: Note: Pumps that have been exposed to these
RE521822 Kit, Temperature Sensor types of contamination will not be considered for
RE521823 Kit, Pressure Reg. and Fuel Inlet Connector warranty.

Additional Information:
Further examples of water contamination
are illustrated. Areas to look for rust
deposits and/or contamination particles
are:
• Timing access bore.
• Timing access hole plug.
• Inlet fitting

Note: Thoroughly clean injection pump Timing Pin Hole Bore

and surrounding area prior to performing
any service to the fuel injection pump and
its components.

Replacing Temperature Sensor

When servicing the temperature sensor
(D) (kit RE521822), disconnect wire
connector. Remove temperature sensor
and O-ring. Install new O-ring on
replacement sensor and install. Tighten
to specification and reconnect wires.
Inlet Fitting / Timing Access Bore Plug
Replacing Housing Pressure Regulator
and Fuel Inlet Connector Note: Pumps that have been exposed to these
To replace the housing pressure regulator types of contamination will not be considered
(E) and fuel inlet connector (B) (kit for warranty.
RE521823), disconnect the fuel supply
and return lines from the inlet connector
and housing pressure regulator. Remove
the housing pressure regulator and fuel
inlet connector. Install O-rings on new
fuel inlet connector and housing pressure
regulator. Install into pump housing and
tighten to specification.

Replacing Timing Pin Hole Plug

Loosen and remove the timing pin hole
plug (A). Using kit RE521824, fit new O-
ring onto plug and install the plug,
tightening it to specification. Stanadyne DE10 Fuel Injection Pump

kit RE522109. Disconnect wiring from
solenoid and remove two solenoid
terminal cap locks (I). Remove solenoid
connector and replace O-ring (J). Apply a
light coat of O-ring grease and install
solenoid connector. Install new O-rings
on solenoid terminal cap locks (I) and
tighten to specification.
