General Information
Introduction to Torque
"Torque" is measured in terms of force and distance. Force is the amount of pushing or pulling applied at
the end of the lever. Distance is the length of the lever that is being used. Torque values are given in the
following units: NEWTON meters (N·m), pound inches (lb in) and pound feet (lb ft)
This manual is intended to provide the operator with a reference. This manual will provide the standard
torque settings for the following: bolts, nuts, plugs, fittings and clamps.
Exceptions to these torques are given in the Service Manual, if necessary.
Be sure to use a torque wrench that has the proper range. Torque wrenches must be used properly in order
to ensure that the correct torque is applied. Always use a smooth pull for torque wrenches. Do not jerk a
torque wrench. Do not use adapters that change the length of the torque wrench. For the correct use of
your torque wrench, refer to the instructions that were packaged with your torque wrench. For more
information on the correct use of torque wrenches, refer to Special Publication, SEBV0516, "An
Introduction to Torque".
Prior to installation of any hardware, ensure that components are in near new condition. Bolts and threads
must not be worn or damaged. Threads must not have burrs or nicks. Hardware must be free of rust and
corrosion. Clean reused fasteners with a noncorrosive cleaner. Lightly lubricate the threads of reused
fasteners. Lightly lubricate the mating surface of the head of reused fasteners. Other applications for
lubricating fasteners may also be specified in the Service Manual. The Service Manual may also specify
the use of sealants and compounds.
Note: Do not use sealants that are not specified in the Service Manual. Do not use compounds that
are not specified in the Service Manual. Clean old compound from the bolt and from the hole
before installation.
Torque-Turn
The torque-turn method is used when precise control over clamping force is required. There is an initial
torque and an additional turn. The initial torque is required to bring all parts of the joint into contact. The
additional turn provides the desired clamping force. Ensure that all fasteners have been torqued before
you perform the additional turns. Turn the fastener according to the specified amount. The specified
amount will normally be equal to or greater than 90°. The specified amount will normally be in 30°
increments. Turns of 120° or 180° are preferred. Turns of 120° or 180° are easily measured by the points
of the hex head of the fastener. Lubrication may be specified in order to reduce the effort that is required
for the final turn. The use of the torque-turn method will allow the following:
l Track bolts
l Sprocket bolts
l Connecting rod bolts
l Engine Cylinder Heads
l Drive Shaft bolts
Note: Too much tension on the bolt will cause the bolt to be stretched beyond the point of yield. The bolt
will be permanently stretched. The bolt will loosen the grip on the parts that are being fastened. If the bolt
is tightened again, the bolt will break. Do not reuse bolts that have been permanently stretched.
Torque Sequence
Unless the bolt tightening sequence is specified by the Service Manual, the fasteners should be tightened
in a cross pattern. Use Step 1 through Step 5 unless the tightening sequence is specified:
1. Hand tighten all fasteners. Larger fasteners may require the use of a small hand wrench.
4. Torque all fasteners to full torque by using a cross pattern. Large flanges may require additional
passes.
5. Apply at least one final full torque to all fasteners in a clockwise direction until all torque is
uniform. Large flanges may require additional passes.

protection during this procedure.
Illustration 1 g00909058
Plow bolts must be installed properly. Refer to the following procedure for the correct installation of plow
bolts.
1. Clean all surfaces that contact the bolt. Remove all occurrences of the following conditions:rust,
paint, nicks and burrs
2. Tighten the nut to the correct torque. Refer to Table 1 for the correct torque.
3. Use a hammer to strike the head of the bolt. The bolt must be struck with significant force.
Note: The head of the bolt may be recessed below the mounting surface. Use a suitable punch in
order to transfer the hammer blow to the bolt head.
4. Tighten the nut to the correct torque. Refer to Table 1 for the correct torque.
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS 005 Service manual
Installation of Fittings
Note: The tightening sequence of the fasteners that attach a tube assembly or hose assembly to the
machine is very critical to the proper function of the machine. The sealing surfaces of the tube assembly
or hose assembly should be secured squarely. The sealing surfaces of the tube assembly or hose assembly
should be tightened to the serviced component (control valve, cylinder, hydraulic motor, etc). Perform
this procedure prior to the final tightening of any clamps or clips that are used in order to fasten the tube
assembly or the hose assembly to the machine.
Fittings have different connections. Fittings may have two completely different ends. Be sure to use the
proper torque for the end of the fitting that is used. The following list contains some common types of
fittings.
3. Put the hose in a position so that the hose does not make contact with the machine or with another
hose.
Illustration 1 g00906528
4. Position the split flange parallel over the port. Tighten the bolts on both connections to the proper
torque. Follow the prescribed torque sequence for split flange connections. Refer to Illustration 1.
Add the measurement of gap (A) to the measurement of gap (B) . The total must not exceed 4.0
mm (0.16 inch).
7. Look at the hose during movement of the implement. Ensure that the hose is not in contact with the
machine or with other hoses.
Note: For hoses that cross an articulation hitch, check for contact during articulation. For hoses that
connect to the steering system, check for contact during steering.
9. If the hose contacts other hoses or the machine during the test, loosen the bolts and reposition the
hose. Repeat steps 3 through 8 until there is no contact.
This type of fitting is used in many applications. One end of the fitting will be an adjustable STOR fitting.
The other end will be different. Always use the same installation procedure for the STOR end. Adjustable
STOR fittings can be positioned before tightening.
Illustration 2 g01848653
2. Put the fitting assembly in the correct position. loosen fitting (2) until the correct assembly position
is achieved. Do not loosen the fitting more than 360 degrees. Install the tube or hose hand tight in
order to verify the orientation of the fitting. Tighten the fitting (2) to the torque that is shown in the
correct chart for the fitting that is used. Tighten locknut (3) to the torque that is shown in the correct
chart for the fitting that is used. Use a backup wrench, when the locknut is tightened.
l Excessive tightening can expand a loose ferrule into the nut. This will cause the ferrule to lock up
in the nut and the nut will not function properly.
l Excessive tightening can split the nut on the end of the tube or can split the ferrule.
l Excessive tightening can gall or excessive tightening can strip the threads of the nut.
Note: If the above conditions occur due to excessive tightening, the damaged fluid connector must be
scrapped and the fluid connectors must be replaced.

Put nut (1) over the tube and push the tube into the counterbore of the fitting body as far as possible. Turn
the nut with a wrench until a small decrease in torque is felt. The small decrease in torque indicates that
the sleeve (1A) has been broken off of the nut. Hold the tube in order to prevent the tube from turning.
Tighten the nut for an additional 1 1/2 turns.

Put nut (1) and sleeve (2) over the tube. The head end of the sleeve should be next to the nut. The head
end has a shoulder. The nut will be seated against this shoulder when the nut is tightened. Push the tube
into the counterbore of the fitting body as far as possible. Turn nut (1) clockwise until the sleeve grips the
tube. The sleeve must prevent all movement of the tube. Tighten the nut for an additional 1 1/4 turns. The

Hose Clamps
Illustration 1 g00910017
Table 1
Use a constant torque hose clamp in place of any worm drive band type clamp. Ensure that the constant
torque hose clamp is the same size as the worm drive band type clamp. Due to extreme temperature
changes, the hose will heat set. Heat setting can cause worm drive band type clamps to loosen. Loose
hose clamps can result in leaks. There have been reports of component failures that have been caused by
worm drive band type clamps that have loosened. The constant torque hose clamp will help prevent these
failures.
Illustration 2 g01848056
Use a torque wrench for proper installation of all constant torque hose clamps. There are two types of
constant torque hose clamps: Belleville washer (1) and Tee bolt and spring (2)
When the constant torque hose clamp (Belleville washer) (1) is assembled correctly, the Belleville
washers (1A) are nearly collapsed flat. The proper torque for screw (1B) is based on the diameter (B) of
the clamp. Refer to the following table for the correct torque.
Table 2
The correct torque for the constant torque hose clamp (tee bolt and spring) (2) is 7.5 ± 1 N·m (65 ± 10 lb
in).

NOTICE
Note: Caterpillar does not recommend the checking of the actual bearing clearances particularly on small
engines. This is because of the possibility of obtaining inaccurate results and the possibility of damaging
the bearing or the journal surfaces. Each Caterpillar engine bearing is quality checked for specific wall
thickness.
Note: The measurements should be within specifications and the correct bearings should be used. If the
crankshaft journals and the bores for the block and the rods were measured during disassembly, no further
checks are necessary. However, if the technician still wants to measure the bearing clearances, Tooling
(A) is an acceptable method. Tooling (A) is less accurate on journals with small diameters if clearances
are less than 0.10 mm (0.004 inch).
NOTICE
Lead wire, shim stock or a dial bore gauge can damage the bearing
surfaces.
The technician must be very careful to use Tooling (A) correctly. The following points must be
remembered:
l Ensure that the backs of the bearings and the bores are clean and dry.
l Ensure that the bearing locking tabs are properly seated in the tab grooves.
l The crankshaft must be free of oil at the contact points of Tooling (A) .
1. Put a piece of Tooling (A) on the crown of the bearing that is in the cap.
Note: Do not allow Tooling (A) to extend over the edge of the bearing.
2. Use the correct torque-turn specifications in order to install the bearing cap. Do not use an impact
wrench. Be careful not to dislodge the bearing when the cap is installed.
Note: Do not turn the crankshaft when Tooling (A) is installed.
3. Carefully remove the cap, but do not remove Tooling (A). Measure the width of Tooling (A) while
Tooling (A) is in the bearing cap or on the crankshaft journal. Refer to Illustration 1.
Illustration 1 g00473227
Typical Example
4. Remove all of Tooling (A) before you install the bearing cap.
Note: When Tooling (A) is used, the readings can sometimes be unclear. For example, all parts of
Tooling (A) are not the same width. Measure the major width in order to ensure that the parts are
within the specification range. Refer to Specifications, "Crankshaft" for the correct clearances.

liner, spacer plate and cylinder liner. Remove any nicks from the top of the spacer plate.
2. Install a new gasket for the spacer plate and install the spacer plate. Refer to Disassembly and
Assembly, "Cylinder Head - Install".
3. Do not install the O-ring seals or the filler band on the cylinder liner. Position the cylinder liner in
the cylinder bore.
4. Secure the spacer plate and the cylinder liner in position with Tooling (B) according to the
following procedure:
a. Install four bolts and washers around the cylinder liner.
b. Tighten the bolts around the cylinder liner evenly to a torque of 95 N·m (70 lb ft).
c. Install the rest of Tooling (B). Ensure that the crossblock is in position at the center of the
cylinder liner. Ensure that the surface of the cylinder liner is clean. Tighten the bolts that hold
the crossblock in the position evenly to a torque of 70 N·m (50 lb ft).
d. Measure the distance from the bottom of the crossblock to the top of the spacer plate. The
measurements on both sides of the cylinder liner must be equal. If the measurements are
different, tighten the bolts again.
6. Mount the dial indicator into the gauge body. Use the back of the gauge block to zero the dial
indicator.
7. Place the gauge body on the spacer plate with the indicator point on the liner flange. Read the dial
indicator in order to determine the amount of liner projection. Measure the projection at four
equally distant points around the cylinder liner. Measure the projection at the outer flange of the
liner. Do not measure the projection at the inner ring.
The liner projection must be 0.060 to 0.200 mm (0.0024 to 0.0079 inch).
The maximum acceptable difference between the high measurements and the low measurements is
0.05 mm (0.002 inch).
Note: If the measurements around the liner are different, rotate the liner to a different position
within the bore. If the liner projection is not within specifications, move the liner to a different
bore. Inspect the top face of the cylinder block. Measure the cylinder block bore for the liner. If the
bore is too shallow, the bore may require rework.
Illustration 1 g01087469
8. If the liner projection is not 0.13 ± 0.070 mm (0.005 ± 0.0030 inch), measure the thickness of the
following items:
(4) Spacer plate ... 12.31 ± 0.025 mm (0.490 ± 0.0010 inch)
(5) Cylinder liner flange ... 12.65 ± 0.02 mm (0.500 ± 0.0010 inch)
(6) Spacer plate gasket ... 0.21 ± 0.025 mm (0.010 ± 0.0010 inch)

One Electronic Control Module (ECM) is installed on the engine. A second ECM is optional. The second
ECM is called the Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM). The ASM improves the genset's ability to maintain
a consistent level of frequency and voltage through improved processing of the signal.
The ECM controls most of the functions of the engine. The operator's interface with the engine control is
provided by the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) and by the control panel. For information on
Cat ET, refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Service Tools".
There are two possible configurations for the engine's control system. Illustrations 1 and 2 are diagrams

(2) Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM)
One ECM is installed on the engine. ECM (1) controls the engine's functions. Auxiliary Sensing Module
(ASM) (2) is optional.
Both modules are environmentally sealed units that are in an engine mounted terminal box. The ECM
monitors various inputs from sensors in order to activate relays, solenoids, etc at the appropriate levels.
The ECM supports the following primary functions:
l Start/stop control
l Control of ignition
l Governing of the engine
l Air/fuel ratio control
l Monitoring of the detonation sensors
l Diagnostics of the electrical system
l Monitoring and protection of engine operation
Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM) (2) improves the genset's ability to maintain a consistent level of
frequency and voltage.
The modules do not have a removable personality module. The software is changed by programming a
flash file into the module via the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET).

Start/Stop Control
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) contains the logic and the outputs for control of starting and of
shutdown. The ECM responds to signals from the following components: engine control, emergency stop
switch, remote start, data link and driven equipment.
The following Steps describe the electronic control system's start/stop sequencing:
2. After receiving a signal for start-up, the ECM waits for the programmable "Driven Equipment
Delay Time" prior to cranking.
The ECM will not start the engine until the input for driven equipment is grounded.
If the driven equipment's input circuit is opened during engine operation, the engine will shut
down.
3. After input for the driven equipment is grounded, the ECM supplies +Battery voltage to the
solenoid for the starting motor. The starting motor cranks the engine without fuel and without
ignition until the "Engine Purge Cycle Time" has elapsed.
The "Engine Purge Cycle Time" allows any unburned fuel to exit through the exhaust system prior
to ignition. This helps prevent combustion in the exhaust system.
4. After the "Engine Purge Cycle Time" has elapsed, the Gas Shutoff Valve (GSOV) is energized.
The GSOV may be energized by the ECM, or by the customer's equipment. The ECM energizes the
ignition transformers. The ECM sends a fuel command to the fuel metering valve in order to supply
sufficient fuel for a combustible air/fuel mixture. The ECM also sends a throttle command to the
throttle actuator.
The engine has an energize-to-run type of GSOV. This means that the GSOV must be energized in
order to open. When the GSOV is open, fuel is allowed to flow to the engine.
5. After the engine starts and the programmable crank terminate speed is achieved, the ECM removes
the voltage from the starting motor's solenoid. The pinion of the starting motor disengages from the
flywheel ring gear.
The engine control "OFF/RESET" is not recommended for normal shutdown. The "EMERGENCY
STOP" is not recommended for normal shutdown. Only the "EMERGENCY STOP" and an
overspeed condition will cause both the fuel and the ignition to be stopped immediately. The cool
down cycle will not operate.
Any shutdown that is initiated by the ECM is the result of a condition that is undesirable and/or
unplanned.
One of the following conditions initiates a normal shutdown:
¡ The engine control switch is turned to the "COOLDOWN/STOP" position.
¡ The engine control switch is in the "AUTO" position and the remote start/stop initiate contact
opens.
7. The engine operates for the programmable cool down period before the engine stops. After the cool
down period, the ECM removes the +Battery voltage from the solenoid for the GSOV and the fuel
flow is stopped.
8. The ignition continues to operate without a fuel supply until the engine speed is less than 40 rpm.
Then, the ECM terminates the ignition. The engine coasts to a stop.
If the engine speed is not reduced by at least 100 rpm during the programmable "Engine Speed
Drop Time", the ECM terminates the ignition. The ECM activates an emergency stop.

Engine Governing
Illustration 1 g01011687
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) continuously strives to achieve the engine speed that is desired for the
operating condition.
The desired engine speed is determined by these factors:
Desired Speed Input - A signal of either 0 to 5 VDC or 4 to 20 mA can provide this input. The "Desired
Speed Input Configuration" determines the input that is used by the ECM. This input can be provided by a
potentiometer.
Programmable Parameters - The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) is used to program these
parameters that affect the desired engine speed: "Low Idle Speed", "Minimum High Idle Speed" and
"Maximum High Idle Speed". The programmable "Engine Accel. Rate" determines the rate of acceleration of
the desired speed and rate of deceleration of the desired speed. The "Governor Type Setting" parameter can be
set to "Droop" or to "Isochronous". Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Control
System Parameters" for additional information on these parameters.
Idle/Rated Switch - The idle/rated switch is optional. If the idle/rated switch is used, the engine speed can
also be affected by the engine oil pressure:
l If the idle/rated switch is in the idle position, the ECM will always select the low idle speed.
l If the engine oil pressure is less than the setpoint for the low pressure warning, the ECM will always
select the low idle speed.
l If the engine oil pressure is greater than the setpoint for the low pressure warning and the idle/rated
switch is in the rated position, the ECM will select the rated speed.
The actual engine speed is detected via a signal from the engine speed/timing sensor. The ECM compares the
actual engine speed to the desired engine speed. The ECM functions as an electronic governor in order to
develop a throttle command.
The electronic governor uses gains in order to provide stable operation. Two sets of gains are available. The
ECM uses the value of the "Grid Status" parameter in order to determine the set of gains that is used. If the
"Grid Status" is OFF, the ECM uses the gains for the primary governor. If the "Grid Status" is ON, the ECM
uses the gains for the auxiliary governor.
The governor's throttle command is a percent of the maximum position of the throttle. The value of the
throttle command can be viewed on Cat ET. The throttle command is sent to the throttle actuator. The throttle
actuator is mechanically connected to the throttle body. There is no feedback for the throttle position.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 005 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The location of the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM) depends on the configuration of the
control system. Refer to Illustration 1.
Illustration 1 g01445855
Rear view
(1) ITSM
Illustration 2 g01301830
The Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM) monitors thermocouples that measure the engine's
exhaust temperatures. The ITSM calculates the average exhaust temperature for each bank. The
temperatures are broadcast over the Cat Data Link for use with other modules.
Thermocouples measure the exhaust temperatures from the exhaust port of each cylinder. To observe the
value of the output of the thermocouples, use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to view the
"Cylinder #X Exhaust Port". The "X" is the number for the particular cylinder.
A thermocouple is mounted at the inlet for the exhaust gas of each turbocharger turbine. To observe the
value of the output of the thermocouples, use Cat ET to view the "Left Bank Turbine Inlet Temp" or the
"Right Bank Turbine Inlet Temp".
A thermocouple is mounted at the outlet for the exhaust gas of each turbocharger turbine. To observe the
value of the output of the thermocouples, use Cat ET to view the "Left Bank Turbine Outlet Temp" or the
"Right Bank Turbine Outlet Temp".
The following conditions can activate an alarm or a shutdown. The trip points can be programmed with
Cat ET.
l The temperature is higher than the limit that is programmed.
l The temperature is lower than the limit that is programmed.
l The temperature of a cylinder deviates significantly from the average temperature for all of the
cylinders.

Timing Control
The "Desired Timing" parameters allow the customer to electronically program the timing of the ignition
spark of the electronic system in order to meet the needs for specific applications and specific
installations. The desired timing value can be changed while the engine is running or while the engine is
stopped. The value that is entered for the desired timing is the ignition timing when the engine is
operating at rated speed and at full load.
Note: The actual ignition timing at a given instance may vary from the desired timing value. This
variance is due to variations in the engine speed or the detonation.
The range for programming the desired timing is 0 to 40 degrees before the top center (TC) position.
The "First Desired Timing" is determined with the methane number of the primary fuel that is used. Use
the Engine Performance Sheet, "Fuel Usage Guide". The ECM selects the "First Desired Timing" when
terminal P1-20 is an open circuit.
The "Second Desired Timing" is determined with the methane number of the alternate fuel that is used
and the Engine Performance Sheet, "Fuel Usage Guide". When this input is connected to the digital return
or to the - Battery, the engine control will use the "Second Desired Timing". If an alternate fuel is not
used, enter the same timing that was entered in the "First Desired Timing".
Before the initial start-up, a current gas analysis is required. Periodic gas analyses are also recommended.
Data from the gas analysis must be entered into Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number
Program". The results are programmed into the ECM.
Note: It is very important to use the Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number
Program". Use of only the data from the gas analysis can result in incorrect settings.
Within the configuration screen for the master ECM, there are four parameters that relate to the fuel
quality:
Be sure that the configuration parameter for "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" is set for the proper
system.
The "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" can be set to one of the following values:
l "Configuration"
l "4-20 mA"
When the "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" parameter is set to "Configuration", a fixed value
must be set for the "Fuel Quality" parameter. Engines that run on a consistent fuel supply typically use
this type of system. The "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Lower Limit" and "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper
Limit" parameters are not available.
When the "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" parameter is set to "4-20 mA", the ECM will
determine the fuel's LHV according to the value of the signal from the fuel quality sensor. The "4-20mA"
signal is provided by the customer via a sensor that measures fuel quality. The "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV
Lower Limit" and "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper Limit" parameters are used to set the lower limit and
the upper limit of the range of LHV. Engines that run on an inconsistent fuel supply typically use this
type of system. Engines that run on gas from a coal seam or landfill are examples of inconsistent fuel
supply.
This parameter is only available when the "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" is set to "4-20 mA".
The ECM uses the value of this parameter to set the lower limit of the fuel's LHV when the input signal is
4 mA. For example, if the value of this parameter is "300", the ECM will set the fuel's LHV to 300 when
the input signal is 4 mA.
The adjustable range is 100 to 650. The default is 250. The range between the "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV
Lower Limit" and "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper Limit" cannot exceed 600 BTU.
This parameter is only available when the "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" is set to "4-20 mA".
The ECM uses the value of this parameter to set the upper limit of the fuel's LHV when the input signal is
20 mA. For example, if the value of this parameter is "900", the ECM will set the fuel's LHV to 900 when
the input signal is 20 mA.
The adjustable range is 500 to 1250. The default is 850. The range between the "Fuel Quality Sensor
LHV Lower Limit" and "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper Limit" cannot exceed 600 BTU.
The ECM uses a linear scale between the lower limit and the upper limit. Refer to Illustration 1.
Illustration 1 g01110253
In this example, the lower limit is 300. The upper limit is 900. An input signal of 16 mA equals an LHV
of 750.
"Fuel Quality"
This parameter is available when the "Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" is set to "Configuration" or
with software not equipped with remote fuel quality input.
This is the fuel's Low Heat Value (LHV). The air/fuel ratio control of the ECM will compensate for some
inaccuracy in this setting. The ECM assumes a corrected value that is multiplied by the "Fuel Correction
Factor". This factor can be displayed on the Cat ET screen.
The "Fuel Quality" parameter can be used to change the air/fuel ratio when the engine is operating in the
open loop mode. To richen the air/fuel mixture, reduce the value. The calculation will compensate for the
reduced LHV by increasing the fuel flow. To lean the air/fuel mixture, increase the value. The calculation
will compensate for the increased LHV by reducing the fuel flow.
This is the fuel's specific gravity in relation to the specific gravity of air. The ECM does not use this
information. The ECM provides the information to the fuel metering valve via the CAN data link. The
fuel metering valve requires an input for the "Gas Specific Gravity" in order to precisely meter the fuel
flow.
This is a ratio of the fuel's specific heat at a constant pressure and at a constant volume. The ratio is also
known as "k". The ratio is related to the expansion of the gas across the fuel metering valve. The ECM
does not use this information. The ECM provides the information to the fuel metering valve via the CAN
data link. The fuel metering valve requires an input for the "Fuel Specific Heat Ratio" in order to
precisely meter the fuel flow.
This is an adjustment for the level of the engine's exhaust emissions for engine operation at full load. The
adjustable range is 85 to 115 percent. The default value is 100 percent. This parameter can be adjusted in
0.1% increments.
Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Air/Fuel Ratio Control - Adjust".
The "Air/Fuel Proportional Gain" determines the speed of the "Fuel Correction Factor" response in
adjusting for the difference between the actual charge density and the desired charge density.
The factory default setting is 0. This value should not require adjustment. If problems occur, this is one of
the last parameters that should be adjusted. The adjustable range is -50 to +50. Negative values reduce the
speed of the fuel correction factor response and positive values increase the speed of the fuel correction
factor response.
"Air/Fuel Integral Gain"
The "Air/Fuel Integral Gain" determines the response of the fuel correction factor to the error that is
accumulated over time for the air/fuel ratio.
The factory default setting is 0. This value should not require adjustment. If problems occur, this is one of
the last parameters that should be adjusted. The adjustable range is -50 to +50. Negative values reduce the
speed of the fuel correction factor response and positive values increase the speed of the fuel correction
factor response.
Speed Control
Program this parameter to the desired low idle rpm. The low idle rpm can be programmed within the
range of 500 to 1100 rpm.
Program this parameter to the desired minimum high idle rpm. The desired high idle speed is regulated by
the desired speed input. The regulation is linear in proportion to the input. An input of 0 VDC or 4 mA
results in the minimum high idle rpm.
For the 50 Hz arrangement, the minimum high idle speed can be programmed between 900 rpm and 1500
rpm. The default value is 1400 rpm.
For the 60 Hz arrangement, there are two speed ratings: 1200 rpm and 1800 rpm. For the 1200 rpm
engine rating, the minimum high idle speed can be programmed between 900 rpm and 1200 rpm. It has a
default value of 1100 rpm. For the 1800 rpm engine rating, the minimum high idle speed can be
programmed between 900 rpm and 1800 rpm. The default value is 1600 rpm.
The "Minimum High Idle Speed" and the "Maximum High Idle Speed" determine the slope of the desired
speed input.
Program this parameter to the desired maximum high idle rpm. The actual high idle speed is regulated by
the desired speed input. The regulation is linear in proportion to the input. An input 5 V DC or 20 mA
results in the maximum high idle rpm.
For the 50 Hz arrangement, the maximum high idle speed can be programmed between 1500 rpm and
1900 rpm. The default value is 1600 rpm.
For the 60 Hz arrangement, there are two speed ratings: 1200 rpm and 1800 rpm. For the 1200 rpm
engine rating, the maximum high idle speed can be programmed between 1200 rpm and 2200 rpm. It has
a default value of 1300 rpm. For the 1800 rpm engine rating, the minimum high idle speed can be
programmed between 1800 rpm and 2200 rpm. The default value is 2000 rpm.
This parameter controls the rate of desired speed change when the idle/rated switch changes. For
example, the desired speed can be programmed to accelerate at a rate of 50 rpm per second when the
"Idle/Rated" switch is turned to the "Rated" position.
Illustration 2 g01443138
4 to 20 mA
Note: The ECM is not configured to accept a pulse width modulated signal for input of the desired engine
speed. If you try to select a Pulse Width Modulated input (PWM), the ECM will reject the selection. An
error will be generated.
The "Governor Type Setting" parameter can be set to "Droop Operation" or to "Isochronous Mode". This
setting is dependent upon the application of the engine.
This programmable parameter allows precise control of the speed droop. The "Governor Type Setting"
parameter must be set to "Droop". The droop can be programmed to a value between 0 and 10 percent.
Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Engine Governing - Adjust" for the adjustment procedure for the
governor.
This parameter is based on a proportional multiplier. The "Governor Gain Factor" determines the speed of
the throttle actuator's response in adjusting for the difference between the actual speed and the desired
speed. Increasing this value provides a faster response to the difference between the actual speed and the
desired speed.
This parameter changes the reaction of the throttle actuator when the "Grid Status" parameter is "Off". If
changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "Off".
This parameter is intended to be used for synchronization during engine operation at no load.
This parameter is based on an integral multiplier. The "Governor Stability Factor" controls the speed for
elimination of the error in the difference between the actual speed and the desired speed. Increasing this
value provides less damping.
This parameter changes the reaction of the throttle actuator when the "Grid Status" parameter is "Off". If
changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "Off".
This parameter is intended to be used for synchronization during engine operation at no load.
This parameter is based on a derivative multiplier. The "Governor Compensation Factor" is used to adjust
for the time delay between the control signal and the movement of the throttle actuator. If this value is too
low, the engine speed will slowly hunt. If this value is too high, the engine speed will rapidly fluctuate.
This parameter changes the reaction of the throttle actuator when the "Grid Status" parameter is "Off". If
changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "Off".
This parameter is not currently enabled.
This parameter is intended to be used for synchronization during engine operation at no load.
This parameter is not currently enabled.
This parameter is based on a proportional multiplier. The "Auxiliary Proportional Governor Gain 1"
determines the speed of the throttle actuator's response in adjusting for the difference between the actual
speed and the desired speed. Increasing this value provides a faster response to the difference between the
actual speed and the desired speed.
This parameter is intended to be used during loaded engine operation.
This parameter changes the reaction of the throttle actuator when the "Grid Status" parameter is "On". If
this value is changed and the "Grid Status" is "Off", the stability of the engine will not change. If
changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "On".
This parameter is based on an integral multiplier. The "Auxiliary Integral Governor Gain 1" controls the
speed for elimination of the error in the difference between the actual speed and the desired speed.
Increasing this value provides less damping.
This parameter changes the reaction of the throttle actuator when the "Grid Status" parameter is "On". If
this value is changed and the "Grid Status" is "Off", the stability of the engine will not change. If
changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "On".
This parameter is intended to be used during loaded engine operation.
This parameter is based on a derivative multiplier. The "Auxiliary Derivative Governor Gain 1" is used to
adjust for the time delay between the control signal and the movement of the throttle actuator. If this

changing this value causes no effect, check the "Grid Status" in order to make sure that the status is "On".
This parameter is intended to be used during loaded engine operation.
This parameter is not currently enabled.
The ECM accepts an input from the driven equipment that indicates when the equipment is ready for
operation. When the input is grounded, the driven equipment is ready. The ECM will not start the engine
until this input is grounded.
The ECM can be programmed to wait for a certain period of time after receiving a start command before
starting the engine. This allows the driven equipment to get ready for operation.
When the ECM receives a start command, the ECM will wait for the amount of time that is programmed
into the "Driven Equipment Delay Time". If the "Driven Equipment Delay Time" elapses and the input is
not grounded, an event code is activated. The engine will not start.
If the "Driven Equipment Delay Time" is programmed to "0" the delay is disabled. If the ECM receives a
start command and the driven equipment is not ready, an event code is activated. The engine will not
start.
The ECM disengages the starting motor when the engine speed exceeds the programmed "Crank
Terminate RPM". The default value of 250 rpm should be sufficient for all applications.
The "Engine Purge Cycle Time" is the duration of engine cranking without fuel before the actual start-up.
The ignition is disabled during this time. The "Engine Purge Cycle Time" allows any unburned fuel to
exit through the exhaust before you run the engine.
"Cooldown Duration"
When the ECM receives a "Stop" request, the engine will continue to run in the "Cooldown Mode" for the
programmed cooldown period. The "Cooldown Mode" is exited early if a request for an emergency stop
is received by the ECM. If the "Cooldown Duration" is programmed to zero, the engine will immediately
shut down when the ECM receives a "Stop" request.
The "Cycle Crank Time" is the duration of time for activation of the starting motor and the gas shutoff
valve for start-up. If the engine does not start within the specified time, the attempt to start is suspended
for a "Rest Cycle" that is equal to the "Cycle Crank Time".
Example Setting
Table 2
The following sequence will occur if the parameters are programmed according to the example in Table
3:
1. The fuel and the ignition are OFF. The engine will crank for 10 seconds in order to purge gas from
the engine and from the exhaust system.
2. The fuel and the ignition are enabled. The engine will continue to crank for a maximum of 30
seconds.
3. If the engine does not start, the ignition, the fuel, and the starting motor are disabled for a 30 second
"Rest Cycle".
With this example, a complete cycle is 70 seconds: a purge cycle of 10 seconds, a cycle crank of 30
seconds and a rest cycle of 30 seconds. A maximum of one crank cycle is recommended. The "Overcrank
Time" of 45 seconds allows one crank cycle.
This parameter is activated when the ECM receives the signal for stopping the engine. This input ensures
the shutdown in case the Gas Shutoff Valve (GSOV) does not close.
If the ECM is controlling the GSOV, the ECM removes power from the GSOV after the cooldown period
has elapsed. If the customer's equipment is controlling the GSOV, the customer's equipment removes
power from the GSOV after the cooldown period has elapsed.
In either case, the fuel is shut off. The ignition continues until the engine speed drops below 40 rpm. If
the engine rpm does not drop at least 100 rpm within the programmed drop time, the ECM terminates the
ignition and the ECM issues an emergency stop.
The default for this parameter is 15 seconds.
This parameter can be programmed to a period of time between "0" minutes and "10" minutes. The
default value is "10". The engine will shut down after the programmed period of time if a level two event
occurs and the "Impending Shutdown Delay Enable Status" parameter is programmed to "ENABLED".
The ECM will immediately shut down the engine when a level 2 event occurs if this parameter is
programmed to "0" and the "Impending Shutdown Delay Enable Status" parameter is programmed to
"ENABLED".
Power Monitoring
The ECM monitors the generator's output power in order to accurately control the air/fuel ratio. The ECM
uses an output from one of the following sources in order to monitor the generator's output power:
The PLC and the wattmeter are also called power sensors.
The ECM uses the values of the "Power Monitoring" parameters to determine the generator's actual
power output. The electronic control module's value of the generator's actual power output is displayed on
Cat ET as the "Generator Real kW" parameter in Status Group 1. If the value of this parameter is within
one percent of the generator's actual power output, the ECM will accurately control the air/fuel ratio.
If the generator is equipped with the EMCP II+, information on the generator's output is provided to the
ECM via the Cat Data Link. The value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor" parameter
is inactive. No adjustment is necessary for this parameter.
For power monitoring with a power sensor, the ECM accepts a linear signal with a range of 0 VDC to 4.8
VDC. The signal from the power sensor increases from 0 VDC to 4.8 VDC as the generators output
increases. For best resolution, as much of the full scale should be used as possible. The kW power sensor
should be selected such that the maximum is 110 percent of the generator's rated output. For example, if
the generator has a rated output of 1700 ekW, the maximum output is 1870 ekW. When the generator's
output is 1870 ekW, the power sensor will provide a signal of approximately 4.8 VDC.
The ECM requires a scale factor in order to determine the generator's output. The scale factor is
determined by the power sensors full scale range. The equation that is used to determine the scale factor
is provided in Table 4.
Table 3
Computing the Value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor"
(R x 1.1) ÷ 4.8
R is the generator's rated output in kilowatts.
Table 4
Computing the Value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor"
Power Sensor Maximum Rated Output In kW
= kW / volt
Power Sensor Maximum Rated Output Voltage
For example, if the generator's rated output is 1700 ekW, the correct value for the "Generator Output
Power Sensor Scale Factor" parameter is 390. In this example, the relationship between the voltage level
of the signal and the generator's output is shown in Illustration 4 .
Illustration 4 g01062926
In this example, the value of the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor" parameter is 390.
The ECM multiplies the signal voltage by the scale factor in order to estimate the generator's output. In
this example, a signal level of 3.5 VDC indicates that the generator output is approximately 1365 ekW.
After the ECM estimates the generator's output, the ECM adds the value of the "Generator Output Power
Sensor Offset" parameter to the estimate. This refines the electronic control module's estimate of the
generator's actual output.
If the generator is equipped with the EMCP II+, information on the generator's output is provided to the
ECM via the Cat Data Link. The value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" parameter is
inactive. No adjustment is necessary for this parameter.
If the generator is equipped with a power sensor, the power sensor's output may not be zero when the
generator's output is zero. When this occurs, the power sensor has an offset voltage. The offset voltage
may be positive or negative. In most cases, the offset voltage is very low. Therefore, the value of the
"Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" parameter must be set to zero.
The offset voltage must be measured before you change this parameter from zero. To measure the offset
voltage, refer to Troubleshooting, "Generator Output Power Readings Do Not Match". If the offset
voltage is less than 0.01 VDC, the value of the "Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" must be set to
zero.
The value of this parameter is in units of ekW. The minimum programmable value for this parameter is -
327 ekW. The maximum programmable value for this parameter is 200 ekW.
The ECM adds the value of the "Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" parameter to the value that is
determined by the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor" parameter. This refines the electronic
control module's calculation of the generator's actual output.
The electronic control module's final determination of the generator's actual output is displayed on Cat ET
as the "Generator Real kW" parameter in Status Group 1. If the value of this parameter is within one
percent of the generator's actual power output, the ECM will accurately control the air/fuel ratio.
The value of the "Engine Output Power" parameter is the engine's full load rating in ekW. The rating is
stamped on the engine's Information Plate. During operation, the ECM uses this value to determine the
engine's load as a percentage of the maximum load.
The value of this parameter is the rated load of the auxiliary equipment such as a radiator fan that is
directly driven by the engine. The value is in units of ekW. The ECM adds this load to the calculated
value of the generator's actual output in order to determine the total load on the engine.
The engine serial number is programmed into the ECM at the factory. The number is stamped on the
engine Information Plate.

The customer can assign an "Equipment ID" for the purpose of identification.
Customer Passwords
Two customer passwords can be entered. The passwords are used to protect certain configuration
parameters from unauthorized changes.
Note: Factory level security passwords are required for clearing certain logged events and for changing
certain programmable parameters. Because of the passwords, only authorized personnel can make

Engine Sensors
The information from the sensors enables the Electronic Control Module (ECM) to control the engine as
efficiently as possible over a wide range of operating conditions.
The sensors also enable the module to activate alarms, impending shutdowns, and shutdowns in response
to abnormal operation. The functions of the sensors are described below.
Illustration 1 g01449725
Engine oil temperature sensor (1) - An oil temperature sensor measures the engine oil temperature. A
high oil temperature will activate an alarm or a shutdown. The trip points can be programmed with the
Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET). To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view
the "Engine Oil Temperature" parameter.
Pressure switch for the coolant pump (inlet) (2) - A pressure switch is located at the inlet for the engine
jacket water. If the inlet pressure is too high, the switch will activate a shutdown. To observe the status of
the switch, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) to view the "Engine Coolant Pump
Pressure" parameter.
Oil pressure sensors (3) and (4) - The engine oil pressure is measured before the oil filters (3) and after
the oil filters (4). An alarm or a shutdown can be activated by any of the following occurrences: low
filtered oil pressure, low oil filter differential pressure and high oil filter differential pressure. The trip
point for the activation of a warning or a shutdown for oil filter differential pressure can be programmed
with Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the "Engine Oil
Pressure" or the "Unfiltered Engine Oil Pressure" parameter.
Illustration 2 g01442420
Compressor discharge pressure sensor (5) - This sensor only applies to engines that are equipped with
an Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM). The sensor is located at the top of the duct between the compressor
outlet and the inlet to the throttle. The ASM uses the signal from this sensor to rapidly respond to changes
in engine load.
Air inlet pressure sensor (6) - This sensor is connected to the inlet manifold. If the engine is equipped
with an ASM, the sensor is located at the rear of the manifold. Otherwise, this sensor is located at the
front of the manifold. The sensor monitors the absolute manifold pressure. This is the atmospheric
pressure plus the gauge pressure. The information is used by the ECM to calculate the air flow. To
observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the "Inlet Manifold Air Pressure (abs)".
Detonation sensors (7) - The detonation sensors monitor the engine for mechanical vibrations. Each
sensor monitors two cylinders. The sensor produces a voltage signal that is proportional to the engine
detonation. This information is processed by the ECM in order to determine detonation levels. To
eliminate detonation, the ECM retards the timing of the cylinder. If detonation continues, the ECM will
shut down the engine. To observe the value of the output of the sensors, use Cat ET to view the "Cylinder
#X Detonation Level". The "X" is the number for the particular cylinder.
Illustration 3 g01442421
Engine coolant pressure sensor (outlet) (8) - A pressure switch is located at the outlet for the engine
jacket water. If the outlet pressure is too low, the ECM will activate a shutdown.
Engine coolant temperature sensor (9) - The temperature sensor is located in the water temperature
regulator housing. To monitor the coolant temperature, the element must be in contact with the coolant.
Otherwise, the sensor will not function properly. A high coolant temperature will activate an alarm or a
shutdown. A low coolant temperature will only activate an alarm. The trip points for the activation can be
programmed with Cat ET. The engine can be restarted after a shutdown due to high engine coolant
temperature. However, another shutdown will occur after one minute if the temperature remains high. To
observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the "Engine Coolant Temperature"
parameter.
Inlet manifold air temperature sensor (10) - A sensor for monitoring the inlet air temperature is located
in the inlet elbow for the number twenty cylinder. Excessive inlet air temperature can activate an alarm or
a shutdown during high load or low load operation. The trip points for activation can be programmed with
Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the "Inlet Air Temperature"
parameter.
Engine speed/timing sensor (11) - The engine speed/timing sensor is located at the rear end of the left
camshaft. The ECM monitors the engine speed/timing sensor in order to determine the position of the
crankshaft and the engine rpm. With the position of the crankshaft, the ECM is able to determine the
ignition timing. To observe the engine speed in rpm, use Cat ET to view the "Engine Speed" parameter.
Engine speed sensor for the ASM (12) - This sensor only applies to engines that are equipped with an
ASM. The ASM uses the signal from this sensor to accurately determine engine speed. In addition, the
ASM determines the rate of change of the engine speed. The ASM uses this information to rapidly
respond to changes in engine load. The ASM sends information on engine speed to the master ECM via
the Cat Data Link.
Engine speed sensor for the GSC+ (13) - The GSC+ uses the signal from this sensor to monitor the
engine rpm.

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the operating parameters of the engine. The ECM can
initiate a warning or a shutdown if a specific engine parameter exceeds an acceptable range. Use the
Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to perform the following activities:
The default settings for the parameters are programmed at the factory. To accommodate unique
applications and sites, the parameters may be reprogrammed with Cat ET. The screens of Cat ET provide
guidance for the changing of trip points.
Note: Some of the parameters are protected by factory passwords. Other parameters can be changed with
customer passwords.
Refer to the Troubleshooting Manual for the default settings and for instructions on the troubleshooting
events.
Monitoring Parameters
The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. This parameter is
always ON. This parameter cannot be turned off. If the system voltage decreases to the trip point or if the
system voltage goes below the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.

decreases to the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
"Engine Overspeed"
The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. This parameter is always ON. This parameter cannot
be turned off. If the engine speed exceeds the trip point, the ECM will activate an engine shutdown. For
generator set engines, a typical trip point is 118 percent of the engine's rated speed.
The trip point for a warning for this parameter can be programmed by the customer. The trip point for a

The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. This parameter is
always ON. This parameter cannot be turned off. If the system voltage exceeds the trip point, the ECM
will generate a warning.
Trip Points of the Engine Load for High Inlet Air Temperature
The trip points for this parameter can be programmed by the customer. The shutdown response is always
ON. The shutdown response cannot be turned off. This feature provides a trip point between high engine
load and low engine load. The trip point is used for events that involve high inlet air temperature. The trip
point for the events is based on the engine load. The possible responses of the system include warning, an
impending shutdown, and shutdown.
If the load is greater than the trip point, the trip point for the "High Inlet Air Temperature at High Engine
Load" event is used for the logging of the high inlet air temperature.
If the load is less than the trip point, the trip point for the "High Inlet Air Temperature at Low Engine
Load" event is used for the logging of the high inlet air temperature.
The "Service/Configuration" screen of Cat ET defines the "High Inlet Air Temp Engine Load Set Point".
The ECM can activate a warning, an impending shutdown, or a shutdown if the inlet air temperature
exceeds the trip point during the low load operation that is defined.
The "Service/Configuration" screen of Cat ET defines the "High Inlet Air Temp Engine Load Set Point".
The ECM can activate a warning, a derating, or a shutdown if the inlet air temperature exceeds the trip
point during the high load operation that is defined.
The trip point for this parameter can be programmed by the customer. The ECM will activate a warning if
the fuel pressure exceeds the trip point.
Some of the programmable parameters are dependent on the status of an ECM output before the
parameters are allowed to function. Some of the parameters are allowed to function after the crank
terminate relay has been energized for more than 30 seconds. Other parameters are allowed to function
after the output for the fuel control relay is energized. Some parameters are not dependent upon any
conditions.
The conditions are designed to eliminate false events during start-up if the customer has programmed a
delay time to zero.
If the trip point for a shutdown is programmed to activate before the trip point for a warning, the engine
will shut down and the warning will not be activated.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 010 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Ignition System
The engine is equipped with an electronic ignition system. The system provides dependable firing and
low maintenance. The system provides precise control of the spark and of the ignition timing for each
cylinder.
Illustration 1 g01301888
Rear view
(1) Electronic Control Module (ECM)
Illustration 2 g01301896
Rear view
The engine is equipped with an Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM).
(1) ECM
Each cylinder has an ignition transformer. The ECM controls ignition on the left bank and on the right
bank. To initiate combustion, the ECM sends a pulse of approximately 100 volts to the primary coil of
each ignition transformer at the appropriate time and for the appropriate duration. The transformers step
up the voltage in order to create a spark across the spark plug electrode.
Detonation sensors monitor the engine for detonation. The G3516 Engine has eight detonation sensors.
Each sensor monitors two adjacent cylinders. The sensors generate data on vibration that is processed by
the ECM in order to determine detonation levels. The ECM monitors detonation from 0-30 deg ATDC for
each cylinder.
If detonation occurs, the ECM retards the ignition timing of the affected cylinder or cylinders up to six
degrees. If a cylinder has been fully retarded for 16 combustion cycles and the cylinder is still detonating,
the ECM shuts down the engine. During a detonation shutdown request, the ECM retards the detonating
cylinder an additional six degrees, not to exceed ten degrees total.
The ECM provides diagnostics for the ignition system. Refer to the engine's Troubleshooting manual for
more information on the diagnostics of the ignition system.
Mounting flange (3) provides a ground for each ignition transformer (4). The ignition harness is
connected to primary connection (5). The output from the secondary circuit of the transformer is sent to
spark plug (6) through the extension (7) .
The spark plug does not have a conventional electrode gap that can be adjusted. The spark plug has a
precombustion chamber. During the compression stroke, the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder enters holes
in the spark plug's precombustion chamber. The secondary circuit of the transformer provides an initial
8,000 to 32,000 V to the spark plug in order to create a spark. The air/fuel mixture ignites the air/fuel
mixture in the cylinder.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 011 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) provides control of the air/fuel mixture to the engine. Illustration
1 is a diagram of the fuel system's main components. The flow of fuel through a typical fuel system is
explained below.
Refer to the Application and Installation Guide, LEBW5336, "Gaseous Fuel Systems" for more
information on fuel system specifications and installation.
Illustration 1 g01442708
The fuel flows from the main gas supply through a knock-down regulator. A knock-down regulator is a
second regulator that is needed when the gas supply pressure is to high for a single regulator to manage.
From knock-down regulator, the fuel flows to the fuel filter. Usually, the fuel filter is a component of the
design at the particular site. The customer is responsible for supplying clean, dry fuel to the engine. The
fuel filter may be supplied by Caterpillar or by the customer. To prevent particles from entering the
engine, a one micron filter is recommended. The filter must be properly sized for the required gas
pressure.
For installation of the fuel filter, the recommended location is close to the engine before the engine's gas
pressure regulator. Pressure gauges in the gas lines on each side of the fuel filter are recommended in
order to monitor the filter's differential pressure. A manual shutoff valve in the gas line before the fuel
filter will facilitate servicing of the filter.
The filtered fuel flows to the Gas Shutoff Valve (GSOV). The GSOV may be supplied by Caterpillar or
by the customer. The solenoid for the GSOV may be connected to engine's wiring harness or to a harness
that is supplied by the customer. In either case, the customer may install a switch that can interrupt the
circuit.
The control system is configured for a GSOV that is energize-to-run. This means that the GSOV must be
energized in order for the engine to run. The GSOV may be energized by the customer's equipment or by
the ECM. When the GSOV is energized, the valve opens and the fuel flows to the engine. When the
control system shuts down the engine, the voltage is removed from the solenoid. The valve closes and the
fuel is shut off.
The fuel flows through the GSOV to the gas pressure regulator.
The regulator may be supplied by Caterpillar or by the customer.
For parallel to utility applications, the required fuel pressure stability is ± 1.7237 kPa (± 0.25 psi).
A regulated pressure of 7 to 35 kPa (1 to 5 psi) is recommended.
For island mode applications, the minimum fuel pressure is 20 kPa (2.9 psi). Steady state fuel pressure
stability requirement of ± 6.9 mbar/sec (1 psi/sec). Transient fuel pressure stability requirement of ± 48.2
mbar/sec (7 psi/sec).
Less gas pressure may result in reduced power. More gas pressure may result in instability.

The temperature of the compressed air/fuel mixture is reduced in the aftercooler. This increases the
density of the air/fuel mixture. This results in more efficient combustion.

SYSTEMS OPERATION 012 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) provides control of the air/fuel mixture for performance and for
efficiency at low emission levels. The system includes the following components: maps in the ECM,
output drivers in the ECM, air inlet pressure sensor, inlet manifold air temperature sensor, engine
speed/timing sensor, generator output power sensor and fuel metering valve. Additionally, the customer's
input via the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) is required. Illustrations 1 and 2 are diagrams of
the system's main components and of the inputs for the system.
For engines that are equipped with an Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM), ASM receive inputs from the
following sensors:
The ASM rapidly processes the signals from these sensors and passes the information to the master ECM
via the Cat Data Link.
Illustration 1 g01443064
Cat ET - This software is designed to run on a personal computer. Technicians can use the program to
perform many functions. For the air/fuel ratio control, the technician programs configuration parameters
into the ECM.
Generator output power sensor - The engine's control system requires an input which indicates the
generator's output in kilowatts. This input can be from the EMCP II+, from a programmable logic
controller (PLC), or from a wattmeter. If the EMCP II+ is not used, the equipment that monitors the
generator's output is provided by the customer. The PLC or the wattmeter must provide an analog signal
with a range of 0 to 5 VDC. The signal must use as much of this range as possible. The signal must be
accurate within 0.5 percent of the generator's actual output. The signal must have a linear relationship
with the generator's actual output in electrical kilowatts (ekW). Engines that are equipped with ASM are
not compatible with EMCP II+ load signal.
Inlet manifold air temperature sensor - This sensor monitors the temperature of the air/fuel mixture in
the inlet manifold.
Air inlet pressure sensor - This sensor monitors the pressure of the air/fuel mixture in the inlet manifold.
Engine speed/timing sensor - This sensor monitors the rotation of a speed-timing wheel in order to
provide information on the engine timing and on the engine rpm.
Fuel metering valve - This is an electronically controlled actuator and a valve that regulates the flow of
fuel. The device monitors the fuel temperature, the fuel pressure, and the valve's differential pressure. The
ECM sends a command signal for the fuel flow to the device. The device modulates the valve in order to
match the command signal. The ECM communicates with the fuel metering valve via the CAN data link.
Optional Fuel Quality Sensor - Some applications support an input for remote fuel quality. These
engines can accept an input from a fuel quality sensor that is provided by the customer. The sensor
performs continuous analysis of the fuel in order to determine the fuel's LHV. The sensor provides a 4 to
20 mA signal to the ECM which indicates the fuel's LHV. The sensor has a "CONFIG" setting and a "4 to
20 mA" setting. The "CONFIG" setting is only used if the quality of fuel supply is constant. The "4 to 20
mA" setting is used when the quality of the fuel supply is variable.
The air/fuel ratio control has two basic modes of operation:
l Open loop
l Charge density feedback
The modes of operation are explained below.
For proper operation of the air/fuel ratio control, inputs from the customer are necessary.
To accurately control the air/fuel ratio, the control system depends on these inputs from the customer:
l Fuel Quality
l Engine Load
Fuel Quality
Before the initial start-up, a current gas analysis is required. Data from the gas analysis must be entered
into Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number Program". The results are programmed into the
ECM.
Note: It is very important to use the Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number
Program". Use of only the data from the gas analysis can result in incorrect settings.
The ECM must have values for the following parameters. The values are entered via the "Configuration"
screen of Cat ET:
Note: The "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Lower Setpoint" and the "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper
Setpoint" are needed only when using the 4-20 mA signal from a fuel quality sensor.
Note: For more details on these parameters, refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting,
"Electronic Control System Parameters".
"Fuel Quality Input Type Configuration" - Program this parameter to either "CONFIG" or "4 to 20
mA". The "CONFIG" setting is only used if the quality of fuel supply is constant. If the "CONFIG"
setting is used, enter a value under the "Fuel Quality" setting. The "4 to 20 mA" setting is used when the
quality of the fuel supply is variable. If the "4 to 20 mA" is used, enter the values for the "Fuel Quality
Sensor LHV Lower Setpoint" and for the "Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper Setpoint".
"Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Lower Setpoint" - The ECM uses the value of this parameter to determine
the lower limit of the range of the fuel's LHV.
"Fuel Quality Sensor LHV Upper Setpoint" - The ECM uses the value of this parameter to help
determine the upper limit of the range of the fuel's LHV.
"Fuel Quality" - This is the fuel's Low Heating Value (LHV). The value is obtained from a fuel analysis
which is entered into Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number Program". Only use this value
when the fuel quality sensor is in the "CONFIG" setting.
During operation, the ECM uses the LHV to help determine the command signal for the fuel flow.
"Gas Specific Gravity" - This is the fuel's specific gravity in relation to the specific gravity of air. The
value is obtained from a fuel analysis which is entered into Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane
Number Program".
"Fuel Specific Heat Ratio" - This is a ratio of the fuel's specific heat at a constant pressure and at a
constant volume.
The ECM provides the fuel's specific gravity and heat ratio to the fuel metering valve via the CAN data
link. The fuel metering valve uses this information to help regulate the fuel flow.
In addition to the information on the fuel, the ECM requires information on the engine load.
Engine Load
The ECM must have values for the following parameters. The parameters are entered into the ECM via
Cat ET.
"Engine Output Power" - This is the engine's full load rating in ekW. The rating is stamped on the
engine's Information Plate. During engine operation, the ECM uses this value to determine the engine's
load as a percentage of the maximum load.
"Engine Driven Accessory Load Configuration" - This is the load of the auxiliary equipment such as a
radiator fan that is directly driven by the engine. The value is in units of ekW. The ECM adds this load to
the estimate of the generator's actual output in order to determine the total load on the engine.
"Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor" - This is a scale for the wattmeter's output.
If the generator is equipped with the EMCP II+, information on the generator's electrical power output is
provided to the ECM via the Cat Data Link. The value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale
Factor" parameter is correctly programmed at the factory. This parameter has no effect when the EMCP
II+ provides the information on the generator's power output.
If the generator is equipped with a wattmeter, the signal from the power sensor increases as the
generator's output increases to the maximum output. Select a wattmeter that provides a full scale output
(4.8 VDC) for the generator's maximum power output.
The ECM requires a scale factor in order to estimate the generator's output. For further information, refer
to Systems Operation, "Electronic Control System Parameters".
"Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" - The offset is used to make the scale accurate for the
generator output power sensor.
If the generator is equipped with the EMCP II+, information on the generator's output is provided to the
ECM via the Cat Data Link. The value for the "Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" parameter is
correctly programmed at the factory.
If the generator is equipped with a power sensor, the power sensor's output may not be zero when the
generator's output is zero. When this occurs, the power sensor has an offset voltage. The offset voltage
may be positive or negative. In most cases, the offset voltage is very low.
All of the above parameters are programmed into the ECM via the "Configuration" screen of Cat ET. For
more details, refer to Systems Operation, "Electronic Control System Parameters".
Open loop - During operation in this mode, the ECM controls the air/fuel ratio with maps and with
calculations for the desired air/fuel ratio. This mode of operation uses no feedback. The air/fuel ratio is
controlled in the open loop mode from start-up until the engine load becomes greater than 25 percent.
The ECM uses a Fuel Correction Factor (FCF) to help determine the fuel flow. During operation in the
open loop mode, the FCF is always 100 percent. This enables the customer programmable "Fuel Quality"
or LHV to affect the air/fuel ratio.
To richen the air/fuel mixture, reduce the LHV. The ECM will compensate for the reduced LHV by
increasing the fuel flow.
To lean the air/fuel mixture, increase the LHV. The ECM will compensate for the increased LHV by
reducing the fuel flow.
Charge density - This is the density of the air/fuel mixture in the air inlet manifold. The ECM calculates
the charge density from the values of inlet manifold air temperature and air inlet pressure.
Charge density feedback - The ECM calculates the actual charge density. The actual charge density is
compared to the desired charge density. To achieve the desired charge density, the ECM sends a
command signal to the fuel metering valve. This is a continuous process during operation with loads that
are greater than 25 percent.
The same customer's inputs that are required for operation in the open loop are used for the feedback
mode. The following additional configuration parameter must be programmed into the ECM via the
"Configuration" screen of Cat ET:
"Desired Emissions Gain Adjustment Percentage" - This is an adjustment for the charge density. To
richen the air/fuel mixture, increase the gain adjustment. To lean the air/fuel mixture, decrease the gain
adjustment. This increases the charge density and lowers NOX.
The ECM uses the gain adjustment to help determine the FCF. The FCF varies during operation in the
feedback mode.
Note: A small change in the "Desired Emissions Gain Adjustment Percentage" causes a large change in
the actual exhaust emissions. For example, an adjustment of one percent in the parameter's value will
result in a change of 20 to 40 ppm in the actual level of NOx. This parameter should only be adjusted only
if the engine is above 50 percent load.

Aftercooler
Illustration 1 g01393744
The aftercooler is located on top of the engine. The aftercooler has a two-stage core assembly. Coolant
from the jacket water circuit flows through first stage (1) of the aftercooler core. Coolant from the
separate circuit flows through second stage (2) of the aftercooler core.
Note: For some engines that are used for cogeneration, the aftercooler's first stage may also be separate.
The air/fuel mixture from the turbocharger's compressor flows through the throttle into the aftercooler's
cover. The air/fuel mixture passes through the fins of the aftercooler core in order to exchange heat with
the coolant. The temperature of the compressed air/fuel mixture is reduced in the aftercooler. This
increases the density of the air/fuel mixture. This results in more efficient combustion.
The temperature of the air/fuel mixture is initially reduced in the first stage. The second stage provides
further reduction of the air/fuel mixture's temperature. The air/fuel mixture from the aftercooler is
distributed through the air inlet manifold to the cylinders for combustion.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 014 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Compressor Bypass
A rapid reduction in the generator's power output can cause a rapid increase in the engine speed. The
increased engine speed causes the turbocharger to produce boost pressures that are greater than the
requirement for the engine operation.
Turbocharger surge - In response to the excess pressure in the air inlet system, the flow of air across the
turbocharger compressor wheel is reversed. This reversal of the air flow is called a turbocharger surge.
During a turbocharger surge, the turbocharger overspeeds temporarily. This places a greater axial load on
the thrust bearing and higher than normal torque on the shaft. The turbocharger surge can result in severe
damage to the turbocharger.
The compressor bypass group reduces the opportunity for a turbocharger surge.

The master Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the engine speed. The ECM responds to a rapid
increase in the engine speed by sending a command signal to actuator (1). This causes the actuator to
move a shaft that is connected to a plate inside bypass valve (2). The bypass valve opens.
The bypass valve is connected before throttle (3). Tubing is connected from the bypass valve to the inlet
for the turbocharger compressor. When the bypass valve is opened, the compressed air/fuel mixture is
diverted through the tubing away from the throttle. This reduces the back pressure that is caused by
excessive pressure in the air inlet system.
Note: The bypass valve for the 60 Hz arrangement is connected to two sets of tubing: one set of tubing is
connected to the inlet for the right turbocharger and the other set of tubing is connected to the inlet for the
left turbocharger.
Additionally, the ECM sends two other command signals. A command to throttle actuator (4) opens the
throttle in order to reduce the resistance that contributes to back pressure. A command to fuel metering
valve (5) reduces the fuel supply in order to reduce the engine speed and the turbocharger's speed.
The combined effect of these actions reduces the opportunity for a turbocharger surge.
The ECM determines a time period that is required for opening of the bypass valve. After the time period
has expired, the ECM sends a command signal to actuator (1) in order to close the bypass valve. Normal
operation resumes.
The compressor bypass group is also operated during engine shutdown. This reduces the opportunity for a
turbocharger surge during engine shutdown. Additionally, any air/fuel mixture that may have been
trapped in the tubing is purged.
Active Bypass
The compressor bypass valve is commanded to a wide range of positions if the engine is equipped with an
Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM). This is called active bypass. The ASM uses inputs from the manifold
air pressure sensor and the boost pressure sensor in order to determine the pressure drop across the
throttle plate. The ASM determines the amount of active bypass that is required in order to maintain the
desired pressure drop across the throttle plate. The ASM transfers the information to the master ECM via
the Cat Data Link. The master ECM sends a command to the actuator for the bypass valve in order for the
bypass valve to move to the desired position.

Exhaust Manifold
Illustration 1 g00928158
The exhaust manifolds are located on the sides of the engine. Exhaust gas flows from each cylinder head
through intermediate exhaust manifolds that are connected by bellows in order to form a passage to the
turbocharger turbine.
The dry exhaust manifolds provide maximum heat to the turbine. The exhaust manifolds are covered with
insulated heat shields in order to retain the heat. The heat shields also help protect the wiring and other
components from the heat.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 016 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Turbocharger
The turbine side of the turbocharger is mounted to the exhaust manifold. The compressor side of the
turbocharger is connected by pipes to the aftercooler housing.
Illustration 1 g00281664
The exhaust gases go into the exhaust inlet (10) of the turbine housing. The gases push the blades of
turbine wheel (5). The turbine wheel and the compressor wheel turn at speeds up to 90,000 rpm.
Air and fuel are pulled through the compressor housing air inlet (7) by the rotation of the compressor
wheel (1). The action of the compressor wheel blades causes a compression of the air/fuel mixture.
Bearing (2) and bearing (4) in the turbocharger use engine oil under pressure for lubrication. The oil is
sent through the oil inlet line to oil inlet (3) at the top. The oil then goes through passages in the center
section for lubrication of the bearings. The oil goes out of oil outlet (9) at the bottom. The oil then goes
back to the engine block through the drain line.
The bearing housing in the turbocharger is also cooled by the jacket water coolant. Coolant from the
coolant inlet line enters the side of the center section. The coolant travels through the coolant passages (8)
in the bearing housing. The coolant then leaves the turbocharger at the opposite side of the center section.
SYSTEMS OPERATION 017 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The valve system components control the flow of the inlet air and of the fuel into the cylinders and the
flow of exhaust gas out of the cylinders during engine operation.
Illustration 1 g00813876
The crankshaft gear drives the camshaft gears through idler gears. The camshafts must be timed to the
crankshaft in order to get the correct relation between the movement of the piston and movement of the
valves.
The camshafts have two camshaft lobes (8) for each cylinder. As the camshaft turns, the camshaft lobe
causes cam follower (7) and pushrod (5) to move up and down.
The pushrod moves rocker arm (1). Movement of the rocker arm causes valve bridge (2) to move up and
down on a dowel in the cylinder head. This movement operates valves (6). The valve bridge enables one
rocker arm to operate two valves simultaneously. There are two inlet valves and two exhaust valves for
each cylinder.
Valve rotator (3) turns the valve during engine operation. The rotation of the valves keeps the deposit of
carbon on the valves to a minimum. This provides longer service life for the valves.
When cam follower (7) moves downward, valve spring (4) closes the valve.

Lubrication System
Illustration 1 g00928770
Engine oil pump (14) has three gears that are driven by the front gear train. The engine oil pump pulls
engine oil from the pan through suction bell (16) and elbow (15). The suction bell has a screen in order to
strain the engine oil.
Relief valve (13) controls the maximum pressure of the engine oil from the engine oil pump. If the
pressure from the pump becomes excessive, the relief valve opens and some of the engine oil returns to
the engine oil pan.
Engine oil cooler (11) reduces the temperature of the engine oil. The engine oil cooler has bypass valve
(12) that is designed to open if the cooler becomes restricted.
Illustration 2 g00928818
Engine oil filter base (10) provides the mount for engine oil filters (17). The base has an internal bypass
valve.
The bypass valve will open if there is a restriction in the engine oil cooler or in the engine oil filter. This
allows the engine to be lubricated if the engine oil cooler is plugged or if the engine oil filter is dirty.
Clean engine oil from the engine oil filters goes through adapter (9) into the block. Part of the engine oil
goes to left camshaft oil gallery (2). The remainder of the engine oil goes to main engine oil gallery (1) .
Engine oil galleries (2) and (3) supply engine oil through drilled passages to the camshaft bearings. The
engine oil circulates around each camshaft journal. The engine oil then flows through the cylinder head
and through the rocker arm housing to the rocker arm shaft. Some of the engine oil lubricates the valve
stems. The remainder of the engine oil drains from the cylinder head in order to lubricate the pushrods,
the valve lifters, the camshaft, and the camshaft bearings.
Engine oil from main engine oil gallery (1) is supplied to the main bearings through drilled passages.
Drilled holes in the crankshaft supply engine oil from the main bearings to the connecting rod bearings.
Engine oil from the rear of the main engine oil gallery goes to the rear of right camshaft oil gallery (3) .
Sequence valves (7) and (8) allow engine oil from main engine oil gallery (1) to enter engine oil galleries
(4) for piston cooling jets (5). The sequence valves will not allow engine oil into gallery (4) for the piston
cooling jets until there is pressure in the main engine oil gallery. This reduces the amount of time that is
required for pressure buildup when the engine is started.
Illustration 3 g00928859
Piston cooling jet (5) is located in the engine block below each piston. Each piston cooling jet has two
tubes with open ends. One tube directs engine oil into an opening in the bottom of the piston for an
engine oil gallery in the piston. This gallery provides cooling oil behind the ring band of the piston. The
gallery provides engine oil to a slot (groove) in the side of both piston pin bores. The other tube directs
engine oil to the center of the piston. This provides lubrication to the piston pin and to the piston
undercrown. This also helps cool the piston.
Illustration 4 g00928860
Supply line (6) provides engine oil for lubrication of the turbocharger bearings. The engine oil flows
through drain line (18) into the front housing.
Engine oil is provided to the front and rear gear groups through drilled passages in the front housings, in
the rear housings, and in the faces of the cylinder block. These passages are connected to engine oil
galleries (2) and (3) for the camshafts.
After the oil has completed lubrication, the engine oil returns to the engine oil pan.

Cooling System
The engine has two cooling systems. The jacket water system cools the following components: engine oil
cooler, cylinder block, cylinder heads, turbochargers and aftercooler's first stage. A separate system cools
the aftercooler's second stage. Illustration 1 is a diagram of the typical cooling system.
Illustration 1 g00811028
The cooling system has two pumps that are driven by the engine. Coolant from the jacket water cools the first stage of the
aftercooler. The separate circuit cools the second stage.
Water temperature regulators are used in each circuit in order to maintain correct operating temperatures.
Separate Circuit
Illustration 2 g00929351
Auxiliary water pump (1) is driven by the engine's auxiliary drive. The coolant is pumped through tube
(2) to the aftercooler's second stage (3). The coolant exits the aftercooler through tube (4) that is
connected to thermostatic valve (5) .
The thermostatic valve has one inlet, two outlets, and a water temperature regulator. When the coolant is
cool, the water temperature regulator is closed. The coolant is routed directly back to the auxiliary water
pump. The coolant is recirculated through the aftercooler.
When the coolant reaches the opening temperature, the water temperature regulator opens. The coolant is
to a radiator or to a heat exchanger through outlet (6). The coolant returns to the auxiliary pump through
inlet (7) .

Cylinder liners (1) can be removed for replacement. The top surface of the cylinder block is the seat for
the cylinder liner flange. Engine coolant flows around the cylinder liners in order to keep the cylinder
liners cool. Filler band (2) and three O-ring seals (3) seal the coolant in the cylinder block.
Main bearing caps (4) are fastened to the cylinder block with four bolts (5) per cap.

Each cylinder head has four valves. Two exhaust valves (8) and two inlet valves (9) are controlled by a
camshaft and pushrods. For information on the operation of the valves, refer to Systems Operation,
"Valve System Components". Valve guides are pressed into the cylinder heads. The spark plug is located
between the four valves.
Another gasket (10) on top of the spacer plate seals the oil drain passages between the cylinder head and
the spacer plate. After the engine oil lubricates the components in the cylinder head, the engine oil drains
back into the engine block.
Coolant flows from the cylinder block into the cylinder head through water seals (11). The coolant flows
through passages in the cylinder head. The coolant exits the cylinder head and flows into the water

The piston is attached to connecting rod (4) with piston pin (5) and with two pin retainers (6). The
connecting rod has a taper on the pin bore end. This taper gives the connecting rod and the piston more
strength in the areas with the most load. Four bolts (7), which are set at a small angle, hold connecting rod
cap (8) to the connecting rod. This design keeps the connecting rod width to a minimum, so that a larger

Crankshaft
Illustration 1 g01393753
Crankshaft
The crankshaft changes the reciprocating motion of the pistons into usable rotating torque.
The crankshaft drives a group of gears on the front and on the rear of the engine. The front gear group
drives the engine oil pump, the jacket water pump, and the accessory drives. The rear gear group drives
the camshafts.
Pressurized engine oil is supplied to the crankshaft's main bearings through drilled passages in the webs
of the cylinder block. The engine oil then flows through drilled passages in the crankshaft in order to
provide lubrication to the connecting rod bearings.
The engine has nine main bearings. Two thrust plates on the sides of the center main bearing control the
end play of the crankshaft.
Illustration 2 g00807826
Seals and wear sleeves are used at both ends of the crankshaft. Engine oil is sealed by the lip seals and the
wear sleeves help prevent wear on the crankshaft.
Illustration 3 g00929007

As the camshaft turns, each lobe moves a lifter assembly. There are two lifter assemblies for each
cylinder. Each lifter assembly moves a pushrod and two inlet valves or two exhaust valves. The camshafts
must be timed with the crankshaft. The relation of the camshaft lobes to the crankshaft position cause the
valves in each cylinder to operate at the correct time.

When the main supply of pressurized air is ON, pressurized air is provided to relay valve (1). The main
supply of pressurized air is blocked by the relay valve. The relay valve allows some control air pressure
to flow through hose (2) from the bottom of the relay valve to another valve that is connected to starting
motor solenoid (3) .
When the normally closed starting motor solenoid is activated for start-up, the solenoid opens the
connected valve. The valve allows the control air pressure to flow behind piston (11) inside air starting
motor (5) .
The control air pressure pushes the piston. The piston compresses piston spring (12) and the piston moves
the drive shaft for pinion (9) outward in order to engage the pinion with the flywheel ring gear. The
starting motor does not crank the engine yet.
After the pinion is engaged with the flywheel ring gear, a port in the starting motor is opened in order to
allow the control air pressure to flow through hose (4) to the top of relay valve (1). The relay valve opens
in order to allow the main supply of pressurized air to flow through the starting motor's air inlet (6) .
The pressurized air causes vanes (7) and rotor (8) to rotate. The rotor uses reduction gears (10) to rotate
the drive shaft for the pinion and the pinion rotates the flywheel in order to crank the engine.
When the engine starts to run, the flywheel will begin to rotate faster than the pinion. The design of the
drive shaft for the pinion allows the pinion to move away from the flywheel. This prevents damage to the
air starting motor, to the pinion, and to the flywheel ring gear.
When the engine control senses the crank terminate speed, starting motor solenoid (3) is de-energized.
The solenoid closes the attached valve and the control air pressure is removed from piston (11). Piston
spring (12) retracts the piston, the drive shaft, and pinion (9) .
The retraction of piston (11) closes the passage for the control air pressure to relay valve (1). The relay
valve closes in order to shut off the main supply of pressurized air to the starting motor.

When the ECM in terminal box (1) receives an input for start-up, the ECM supplies +Battery voltage to
two magnetic switches (2). The magnetic switches are located in a power distribution box on the side of
the engine. The start command from the ECM is protected by circuit breaker (3) .
The two magnetic switches are connected in a secondary electrical circuit to two starting motor solenoids
(4). The start command closes the contacts of the magnetic switches in order to complete the secondary
electrical circuit. This energizes the starting motor solenoids.
The energizing of the starting motor solenoids causes the starting motors' pinions to engage with the
flywheel ring gear.
The starting motor solenoids are also connected in another electrical circuit between the starting motors
and a source of +24 VDC for cranking the starting motors. After the starting motor's pinions are engaged
with the flywheel ring gear, the starting motor solenoids' contacts complete the other electrical circuit for
cranking of the starting motors.
The starting motors crank the engine until the ECM detects the crank terminate speed. Then, the ECM
removes the +Battery voltage from the magnetic switches. The contacts of the magnetic switches open
and the +Battery voltage is removed from the starting motor solenoids. The starting motor solenoids'
contacts open and the +24 VDC for cranking is removed from the starting motors. The starting motors'
pinions are disengaged from the flywheel ring gear.

Power Supply
The engine control system requires a clean 24 VDC power supply that is capable of supplying 30 amperes
of continuous power.
The maximum allowable AC ripple voltage is 150 millivolts AC peak to peak. For the wiring, the
maximum allowable voltage drop is 1 VDC from the power supply to the master Electronic Control
Module (ECM) in the engine mounted terminal box.
Actuators on the engine draw current in all modes for the engine control. A auxiliary charging system is
recommended in order to maintain battery power while the engine is not running. If an auxiliary charging
system is not at the engine's site the battery power should be disconnected through the 35 Amp breaker in
the junction box when the engine is not running.
Separate the power supply for the engine control from the power supply for the starting motor. From the
factory, the engine's power supply for the engine control is also the power supply for the starter.

Grounding Practices
Proper grounding is necessary for optimum engine performance and reliability. Improper grounding will
result in uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable electrical circuit paths.
Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can result in damage to main bearings, to connecting rod bearing
journal surfaces, and to aluminum components. Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can also cause
electrical activity that may degrade the engine electronics and communications.
Ensure that all grounds are secure and free of corrosion.
The engine alternator must be grounded to the negative "-" battery terminal with a wire that is adequate to
carry the full charging current of the alternator.
For the starting motor, do not attach the battery negative terminal to the engine block.
NOTICE
This engine is equipped with a 24 volt starting system. Use only equal
voltage for boost starting. The use of a welder or higher voltage will
damage the electrical system.
Ground the engine block with a ground strap that is furnished by the customer. Connect this ground strap
to the ground plane.
Use a separate ground strap to ground the negative "-" battery terminal for the control system to the
ground plane.
Disconnect the power when you are working on the engine's electronics.
If rubber couplings are used to connect the steel piping of the cooling system and the radiator, the piping
and the radiator can be electrically isolated. Ensure that the piping and the radiator are continuously
grounded to the engine. Use ground straps that bypass the rubber couplings.

Alternator
NOTICE
Never operate the alternator without the battery in the circuit. Making
or breaking an alternator connection with heavy load on the circuit can
cause damage to the regulator.
Illustration 1 g00285111
The alternator is driven by a belt from an auxiliary drive at the front right corner of the engine. This
alternator is a three-phase, self-rectifying charging unit, and regulator (1) is part of the alternator.
This alternator design has no need for slip rings or brushes, and the only part that has movement is rotor
assembly (7). All conductors that carry current are stationary. The conductors are field winding (6), stator
windings (3), six rectifying diodes, and the regulator circuit components.
Rotor assembly (7) has many magnetic poles. Air space is between the opposite poles.
The poles have residual magnetism that produces a small amount of magnetic lines of force between the
poles. As rotor assembly (7) begins to turn between field windings (6) and stator windings (3), a small
amount of alternating current (AC) is produced in stator windings (3). This current is from the small,
magnetic lines of force that are made by the residual magnetism of the poles. This alternating current
(AC) is changed to a direct current (DC). The change occurs when the current passes through the diodes
of rectifier bridge (5). Most of this current completes two functions. The functions are charging the
battery and supplying the low amperage circuit. The remainder of the current is sent to field windings (6).
The DC current flow through field windings (6) (wires around an iron core) now increases the strength of
the magnetic lines of force. These stronger lines of force increase the amount of AC current that is
produced in stator windings (3). The increased speed of rotor assembly (7) also increases the current and
voltage output of the alternator.
Voltage regulator (1) is a solid-state, electronic switch. The regulator feels the voltage in the system. The
regulator will start and the regulator will stop many times in one second in order to control the field
current to the alternator. The output voltage from the alternator will now supply the needs of the battery
and the other components in the electrical system. No adjustment can be made in order to change the rate
of charge on these alternator regulators.

Starting Solenoid
l The solenoid closes the high current starting motor circuit with a low current start switch circuit.
l The solenoid engages the starter motor pinion with the ring gear.
Illustration 1 g00285112
The solenoid has windings (one or two sets) around a hollow cylinder. The cylinder contains a spring
loaded plunger. The plunger can move forward and backward. When the start switch is closed and the
electricity is sent through the windings, a magnetic field is made. The magnetic field pulls the plunger
forward in the cylinder. This moves the shift lever in order to engage the pinion drive gear with the ring
gear. The front end of the plunger makes contact across the battery and the motor terminals of the
solenoid. The starting motor begins to turn the flywheel of the engine.
When the start switch is opened, current no longer flows through the windings. The spring pushes the
plunger back to the original position. The spring simultaneously moves the pinion gear away from the
flywheel.
When two sets of windings in the solenoid are used, the windings are called the hold-in windings and the
pull-in windings. Both of the windings have the same number of turns around the cylinder. However, the
pull-in winding uses a wire with a larger diameter in order to produce a greater magnetic field. When the
start switch is closed, part of the current flows from the battery through the hold-in windings. The rest of
the current flows through the pull-in windings to the motor terminal. The current then goes through the
motor to the ground. When the solenoid is fully activated, current is shut off through the pull-in windings.
Only the smaller hold-in windings are in operation for the extended period of time. This period of time is
the amount of time that is needed for the engine to start. The solenoid will now take less current from the
battery. The heat that is made by the solenoid will be kept at an acceptable level.

Starting Motor
The starting motor is used to turn the engine flywheel in order to start the engine.
Illustration 1 g00285113
The starting motor has a solenoid (2). When the start switch is activated, electricity will flow through the
windings of the solenoid. The solenoid core will move in order to push pinion (4) with a mechanical linkage.
This will engage with the ring gear on the flywheel of the engine. Pinion (4) will engage with the ring gear
before the electric contacts in solenoid (2) close the circuit between the battery and the starting motor. When
the circuit between the battery and the starting motor is complete, pinion (4) will turn the engine flywheel. A
clutch gives protection to the starting motor. The engine can not turn the starting motor too fast. When the
start switch is released, pinion (4) will move away from the flywheel ring gear.
l The starting motor is protected from engagement with the engine when the engine is running. The
control feature will not allow the starting motor to engage if the speed is above 0 rpm.
l The starting motor is protected from continuous starting. For example, if an operator is holding the key
in the Start position after the engine starts, the starting motor solenoid will disengage after engine speed
reaches 300 rpm.

Circuit Breaker
The circuit breaker is a sealed electromagnetic switch that opens the electrical circuit if the current
exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker.
The circuit breaker has a coil that operates as an electromagnet. As the current that flows through the coil
increases, the coil's magnetic field becomes stronger. If the current exceeds the trip point, the mechanism
that normally closes the electrical circuit is pulled toward the coil's magnetic field and the electrical
circuit is opened.
NOTICE
Find and correct the problem that causes the circuit breaker to open.
This will help prevent damage to the circuit components from too
much current.
The circuit breaker is designed to operate in a temperature range of -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F). Because
the circuit breaker uses an electromagnet rather than a metal element that responds to heat, the circuit
breaker is not affected by changes in the ambient temperature. Also, the electromagnet operates faster
than a metal element.
The circuit breaker is reset with a toggle switch. If the current continues to exceed the circuit breaker's
rating, the electrical circuit will remain open even when the toggle switch is held in the ON position.
The power distribution box has four circuit breakers that are identified in Illustration 1.

If Cat ET and the communication adapter do not communicate with the ECM, refer to
Troubleshooting, "Electronic Service Tool Does Not Communicate".
If Cat ET displays "Duplicate Type on data link. Unable to Service", check the harness code for the
electronic control modules.
The harness inside the terminal box has jumper wires (harness codes) for the slave ECM and the
optional Auxiliary Sensing Module (ASM).
The ECM that is connected to the harness reads the harness code. This provides the ECM with a
unique identifier on the Cat Data Link.
The jumper wires must be connected in order for the Cat ET to communicate with the modules. The
jumper wires must be connected in order for the engine to crank. The jumper wires must remain
connected in order for the engine to run.
The jumper wire for the slave ECM connects terminals P3-60 and P3-29.
The jumper wire for ASM connects terminals P5-60 and P5-68.
Check the continuity between the terminals. Verify that the jumper wires are in good condition.
Make repairs, as needed.
For descriptions of the parameters, refer to Systems Operation, "Electronic Control System Parameters".
The values of the parameters can be viewed on the "Configuration" screen of Cat ET.
Programmable parameters enable the engine to be configured in order to meet the requirements of the
application. The system configuration parameters must be programmed when the application is installed.
Perform this programming before the initial engine start-up.
Data from a gas analysis is required in order to determine the correct settings for the air/fuel ratio control.
The data must be entered into Caterpillar Software, LEKQ6378, "Methane Number Program". Incorrect
programming of parameters may lead to complaints about performance and/or to engine damage.
If an ECM is replaced, the appropriate parameters must be copied from the original ECM. This can be
done with the "Copy Configuration" feature of Cat ET. Alternatively, the settings can be recorded on
paper and then programmed into the new module.
NOTICE
Changing the parameters during engine operation can cause the engine
to operate erratically. This can cause engine damage.
Only change the settings of the parameters when the engine is

TESTING AND ADJUSTING 002 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The response of the throttle actuator can be adjusted with the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). Use
Cat ET to change these three parameters:
The default values should be sufficient for initial start-up. However, the values may not provide optimum
performance.
These adjustments are provided in order to obtain optimum responses to changes in the load and in the
speed. The adjustments also provide stability during steady state operation.
If you have a problem with instability, always investigate other causes before you adjust the governor.
For example, diagnostic codes and unstable gas pressure can cause instability.
When you adjust the primary governor, make sure that the "Grid Status" parameter is "Off". When you
adjust the auxiliary governor, make sure that the "Grid Status" parameter is "On".
To change the parameters, use the "Real Time Graphing" feature on the "Information" drop-down menu
of Cat ET. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of your adjustments.
For details on these parameters, refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Control
System Parameters".
After you make adjustments, always test the stability by interrupting the engine speed and/or load.
Operate the engine through the entire range of speeds and of loads in order to ensure stability.
Note: Adjustment of the "Governor Gain Factor" directly affects the speed of the throttle actuator when
there is a difference between the actual engine speed and the desired engine speed. An excessive increase
of this parameter may amplify instability.
To set the "Governor Gain Factor", increase the value until the actuator becomes unstable. Slowly reduce
the value in order to stabilize the actuator. Observe that the engine operates properly with little overshoot
or undershoot.
The adjustment of "Governor Stability Factor" dampens the actuator's response to changes in load and in
speed. Increasing this value provides less damping. Decreasing the value provides more damping. To
reduce overshoot, decrease the value. To reduce undershoot, increase the value.
Note: An increase of the "Governor Stability Factor" may require a decrease of the "Governor Gain
Factor" in order to maintain a stable operation.
Illustration 1 shows some typical curves for transient responses.
Illustration 1 g01017530
Decrease the "Governor Compensation Factor" until a slow, periodic instability is observed. Then,
slightly increase the value. Repeat the adjustments of the "Governor Gain Factor" and of the "Governor
Stability Factor". Continue to increase the "Governor Compensation Factor" and readjust the "Governor
Gain Factor" and the "Governor Stability Factor" until stability is achieved and the engine's response to
changes in load and in speed is optimized.
Illustration 2 is a graphic representation of adjusting the "Governor Compensation Factor".

The increased width of the line for the actuator voltage indicates that the throttle actuator is more active as the "Governor
Compensation Factor" increases.

Absolute pressure - Absolute pressure is the gauge pressure plus the local barometric pressure.
Gauge pressure - Gauge pressure is the absolute pressure minus the local barometric pressure.
The manifold air pressure sensor is also called the air inlet pressure sensor. The air inlet pressure sensor
measures the absolute inlet manifold air pressure.
To verify that the air inlet pressure sensor is accurate, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to
read the "Inlet Manifold Air Pressure (abs)" when the engine is stopped. The correct pressure will be the
ambient barometric pressure.
Use the following procedure to compare the reading from the air inlet pressure sensor with a reading from
the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group .
Note: The air inlet pressure sensor may be installed at either end of the inlet manifold. The actual location
depends on the configuration of the control system.

Remove one of the plugs from the air inlet manifold. Connect a line from the opening to a pressure gauge
from the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group. Operate the engine under a load. Use Cat ET to read the inlet
manifold air pressure. Read the pressure gauge from the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group and add the
local barometric pressure to the reading. Compare the calculation to the reading from Cat ET.

Detonation Sensor
Detonation is engine knock that occurs after combustion has occurred. The excessive mechanical stress
and thermal stress can reduce the service life of the engine. There are several possible causes of
detonation. Examples are a rich air/fuel mixture, overload, a high compression ratio, and high inlet
manifold air temperature.
Combustion of the air/fuel mixture prior to the spark is a premature ignition. This is usually caused by a
hot spot in the combustion chamber. Possible sources of premature ignition are an incorrect spark plug, an
incorrectly installed spark plug, and deposits in the combustion chamber. Detonation can be the result of
premature ignition. The premature ignition has the effect of advanced ignition timing.
Although a sensor may indicate the presence of detonation, the problem could be a premature ignition. An
indication of detonation can also be caused by excessive mechanical engine noise.
To avoid detecting vibrations that are not related to detonation, the Electronic Control Module (ECM)
only monitors a detonation sensor when one of the sensor's cylinders is between 5 degrees after top center
and 40 degrees after top center. Therefore, the "Block Tap" method of testing the detonation sensors does
not work for the G3500C Engines.
For information on testing the detonation sensors, refer to the engine's Troubleshooting manual.

TESTING AND ADJUSTING 008 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
The High Heat Value (HHV) is a measurement of the total heat that is generated by combustion of a fuel.
When any hydrocarbon is used as a fuel in an internal combustion engine, water is one of the products of
combustion. The water is converted into steam before leaving the engine. The conversion requires heat.
The steam removes the heat and the energy is not used by the engine. The HHV minus the heat that is
used to vaporize the water equals the Low Heat Value (LHV) of the fuel.
The fuel must be mixed with air in order to produce combustion. The amount of air that is required for
efficient combustion will vary for different types of fuels because of the fuels' different compositions. For
optimum engine operation, the air/fuel ratio must be adjusted properly.
The fuel's methane number indicates the tendency of the fuel to detonate. Fuel with a low methane
number burns more quickly than fuel with a high methane number. Additionally, the heat that is produced
by compression can ignite fuel with a low methane number sooner than fuel with a high methane number.
If an engine is using low methane fuel and the timing is too early, detonation will occur. To avoid
detonation, the engine timing must be retarded for low methane. The engine may also need a lower
compression ratio.
An engine with a low compression ratio is able to utilize fuels with low methane. An engine with a high
compression ratio can use a more limited range of fuels. However, a higher power output and greater fuel
economy can be obtained. Operation without combustion problems and production of the required power
from the available fuel depends on the correct engine configuration.
For a detailed explanation of methane numbers, see Application and Installation Guide, LEKQ7256,
"Fuels/Fuel Systems".
Follow the guide for fuel usage that is in the engine's Engine Performance publication. These publications
are available from your Caterpillar dealer.
For detailed information on gaseous fuels, refer to Engine Data Sheet, LEKQ3105, "Internal Combustion
Engine Fuel Gases".
For information on acceptable fuels for the engine, refer to the engine's Operation and Maintenance
Manual.

4. Verify that the value for the "Fuel Specific Heat Ratio" parameter is correct. Enter a value of 1.4
for processed, dry pipeline natural gas.
5. Start the engine. Increase the engine speed to high idle rpm. Verify that the engine is stable.
If the engine is unstable, perform the following procedure.
a. Record the values for these parameters:
n "Governor Gain Factor"
n "Governor Stability Factor"
n "Governor Compensation Factor"
b. Set the values for the "Governor Gain Factor", "Governor Stability Factor", and "Governor
Compensation Factor" parameters to zero.
c. Adjust the "Fuel Quality" parameter until the engine becomes stable and the exhaust oxygen
is approximately four percent. Verify that the exhaust port temperatures are below the
setpoint for a warning.
d. Adjust the primary governor. Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Engine
Governing - Adjust".
6. Close the main circuit breaker for the generator in order to engage the generator.
Note: When the engine load becomes greater than 25 percent, the air/fuel ratio control will operate
in the feedback mode.
7. Slowly ramp the load up to 30 percent.
Note: When the air/fuel ratio control is in the feedback mode, the Fuel Correction Factor (FCF)
may no longer be 100 percent. The Electronic Control Module may adjust the FCF in order to
compensate for the fuel quality and for the ambient conditions.
9. Verify that the reading on Cat ET for the generator's power output agrees with the switchgear's
reading.
If the readings do not agree, adjust the "Generator Output Power Sensor Scale Factor" and/or the
"Generator Output Power Sensor Offset" parameters. Also, make sure that the "Engine Output
Power Configuration" and the "Engine Driven Accessory Load Configuration" parameters are
accurately programmed. Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Control
System Parameters".
10. Slowly ramp up to 70 percent load. Verify that the engine is stable.
If the engine is unstable, adjust the auxiliary governor. Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and
Adjusting, "Engine Governing - Adjust".
11. Verify that the NOx emissions are above the desired full load setting.
13. Verify that the reading on Cat ET for the generator's power output agrees with the switchgear's
reading.
14. Adjust the "Desired Emission Gain Adjustment" parameter in order to obtain the values of
emissions that are required at the site.
¡ To lean the air/fuel mixture, decrease the gain adjustment.
¡ To richen the air/fuel mixture, increase the gain adjustment.
A small change in the "Desired Emission Gain Adjustment" causes a large change in the actual
exhaust emissions. For example, an adjustment of one percent in the parameter's value will result in
a change of 20 to 40 ppm in the actual level of NOx.
When you adjust the exhaust emissions, make a small change in the value of the gain. Wait until
the system stabilizes. Check the emissions again. Repeat the process until the desired emissions
level is achieved.
Use the emissions analyzer in order to verify that the values of emissions meet the requirements of
the site.

Remove plugs (1) from the aftercooler. Connect the manometer in the location of the plugs. Measure the
differential pressure when the engine is operating at full load.
Exhaust Restriction
Exhaust restriction (back pressure) is the difference in the pressure between the exhaust at the outlet
elbow and the atmospheric air pressure.
In addition to the loss of efficiency and power, excessive exhaust restriction will lead to these results:
high engine temperatures, reduced service life of the turbocharger and early problems with inlet and
exhaust valves.
Use the differential pressure gauge of the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group in order to measure the
exhaust back pressure.
Making contact with a running engine can cause burns from hot parts
and can cause injury from rotating parts.
When working on an engine that is running, avoid contact with hot
parts and rotating parts.
Connect the pressure port of the differential pressure gauge to the test location on the exhaust manifold.
The test location may be located anywhere along the exhaust piping after the turbocharger but before the
muffler. Choose a location that is as close to the engine as possible. Install the probe into a straight pipe
that is three to five diameters of the pipe away from the last transition.
The maximum exhaust back pressure is 6.7 kPa (27 inches of H2O). If the exhaust restriction reaches this

Cylinder pressure can be measured during inspection of the spark plugs. The condition of the following
items can be tested by checking the cylinder pressure: valves, valve seats, pistons, piston rings and
cylinder liners.
A loss of cylinder pressure or a change of pressure in one or more cylinders may indicate the following
conditions. These conditions may indicate a problem with lubrication:
l Excessive deposits
l Guttering of valves
l A broken valve
l A piston ring that sticks
l A broken piston ring
l Worn piston rings
l Worn cylinder liners
Measure the cylinder pressure of an engine after approximately 250 hours of operation. Record the data.
Continue to periodically measure the cylinder pressure. Comparing the recorded data to the new data
provides information about the condition of the engine.
Note: Cylinder pressure is one of the three factors that help to determine the in-frame overhaul interval.
Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Overhaul (In-Frame)".
If the cylinder pressure has risen by one or more compression ratios, the engine needs a top end overhaul
in order to remove deposits. Failure to remove the deposits will increase the chance for detonation. Severe
guttering of the valves will occur.
To measure the cylinder pressure, use the 193-5859 Cylinder Pressure Gauge Gp (Gas Engine). Use the
Special Instruction, NEHS0798 that is included with the gauge. Use the following guidelines:

The following problems generally indicate a problem in the engine's lubrication system.
When some components of the engine show bearing wear in a short time, the cause can be a restriction in
a passage for engine oil.
An indicator for the engine oil pressure may show that there is enough engine oil pressure, but a
component is worn due to a lack of lubrication. In such a case, look at the passage for the engine oil
supply to the component. A restriction in an engine oil supply passage will not allow enough lubrication
to reach a component. This will result in early wear.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING 021 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Check for leakage at the seals at each end of the crankshaft. Look for leakage at the gasket for the engine
oil pan and all lubrication system connections. Look for any engine oil that may be leaking from the
crankcase breather. This can be caused by combustion gas leakage around the pistons. A dirty crankcase
breather will cause high pressure in the crankcase. A dirty crankcase breather will cause the gaskets and
the seals to leak.
Engine oil that is leaking into the combustion area of the cylinders can be the cause of blue smoke. There
are several possible ways for engine oil to leak into the combustion area of the cylinders:
Excessive consumption of engine oil can also result if engine oil with the wrong viscosity is used. Engine
oil with a thin viscosity can be caused by fuel leakage into the crankcase or by increased engine
temperature.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING 022 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
If the engine oil temperature is higher than normal, the engine oil cooler may have a restriction. Look for
a restriction in the passages for engine oil in the engine oil cooler. The engine oil pressure will not
necessarily decrease due to a restriction in the engine oil cooler.
Determine if the engine oil cooler bypass valve is held in the open position. This condition will allow the
engine oil to flow through the valve rather than through the engine oil cooler. The engine oil temperature
will increase.
Make sure that the cooling system is operating properly. A high coolant temperature in the engine oil
cooler will cause high engine oil temperature.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING 023 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Table 1
An incorrect engine oil pressure gauge and an incorrect engine oil pressure sensor will provide false
indications of low engine oil pressure or high engine oil pressure. Use the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure
Group to measure the engine oil pressure. Follow the instructions in Special Instruction, SEHS8907,
"Using the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group " that is included with the tool.
Work carefully around an engine that is running. Engine parts that are
hot, or parts that are moving, can cause personal injury.
Illustration 1 g00285344
Measure the engine oil pressure to the camshaft and main bearings on each side of the cylinder block at
oil gallery plug (1). With the engine at operating temperature, the correct minimum engine oil pressure at
full load rpm is approximately 280 kPa (40 psi). The correct minimum engine oil pressure at low idle rpm
is approximately 140 kPa (20 psi).
Compare the results to the engine oil pressure that is indicated on the engine oil pressure gauge and on the
electronic service tool. If there is a notable difference between the engine oil pressure readings, determine
the cause.
If the engine oil pressure is too low or too high, determine the cause and correct the condition. If the
engine oil pressure gauge or the engine oil pressure sensor is incorrect, replace the suspect component.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING 024 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
This engine has a pressure type cooling system. A pressure type cooling system has two advantages.
Cavitation occurs when mechanical forces cause the formation of air bubbles in the coolant. The bubbles
can form on the cylinder liners. Collapsing bubbles can remove the oxide film from the cylinder liner.
This allows corrosion and pitting to occur. If the pressure of the cooling system is low, the concentration
of bubbles increases. The concentration of bubbles is reduced in a pressure type cooling system.
The boiling point is affected by three factors: pressure, altitude and concentration of glycol in the coolant.
The boiling point of a liquid is increased by pressure. The boiling point of a liquid is decreased by a
higher altitude. Illustration 1 shows the effects of pressure and altitude on the boiling point of water.
Illustration 1 g00286266
The boiling point of the coolant also depends on the type of coolant and the concentration of glycol. A
greater concentration of glycol has a higher boiling temperature. However, glycol transfers heat less
effectively than water. Because of the boiling point and the efficiency of heat transfer, the concentration
of glycol is important.
Three basic problems can be associated with the cooling system:
l Overheating
l Coolant loss
l Overcooling
If the cooling system is not properly maintained, solids such as scale and deposits reduce the ability of the
cooling system to transfer heat. The engine operating temperature will increase.
When the engine is overloaded, the engine will run in the lug condition. When the engine is running in
the lug condition, the engine is operating at a lower engine rpm that reduces the coolant flow. Decreased
coolant flow during high load will cause overheating.
Coolant can be lost by leaks. Overheated coolant can be lost through the cooling system's pressure relief
valve. Lower coolant levels contribute to additional overheating. Overheating can result in conditions
such as cracking of the cylinder head and piston seizure.
A cracked cylinder head or cylinder liner will force exhaust gas into the cooling system. The additional
pressure causes coolant loss, cavitation of the water pump, less circulation of coolant, and further
overheating.
Overcooling is the result of coolant that bypasses the water temperature regulators and flows directly to
the radiator or to the heat exchanger. Low load operation in low ambient temperatures can cause
overcooling. Overcooling is caused by water temperature regulators that remain open. Overcooling
reduces the efficiency of operation. Overcooling enables more rapid contamination of the engine oil. This
results in the formation of sludge in the crankcase and carbon deposits on the valves.
Cycles of rapid heating and cooling can result in cracked cylinder heads, gasket failure, accelerated wear,
and excessive fuel consumption.
If a problem with the cooling system is suspected, perform a visual inspection before you perform any
tests on the system.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING 025 G3516E Service manual (GAS)
Visual Inspection
If a problem with the cooling system is suspected, inspect the cooling system before you perform any tests on
the cooling system.
1. Check the coolant level in the cooling system. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Cooling
System Coolant Level - Check".
2. Make sure that the coolant meets the recommendations of the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Also, make sure that the coolant has the following properties:
¡ Color that is similar to new coolant
¡ Odor that is similar to new coolant
¡ Free of dirt and debris
3. Look for leaks in the cooling system. After the engine is stopped, look for coolant or steam from the
radiator's overflow. Inspect the hoses and clamps for good condition.
If engine oil or coolant is leaking from the joint between the cylinder head and the engine block, there is
a problem with the cylinder head gasket.
Note: The water pump has a weep hole between the seal for the coolant and the seal for the bearing.
The weep hole prevents coolant from entering the lubrication system if there is a problem with a seal in
the water pump. A small amount of coolant at the weep hole is normal.
4. Make sure that air flows through the radiator and that there is not a restriction. Look for radiator fins
that are bent, damaged, or leaking. Look for dirt and debris that can restrict the flow of air through the
fins.
6. Check for damage to the fan blades. Look for damaged baffles on the radiator and for baffles that are
missing. Inspect the shroud of the fan for good condition.
7. Inspect the air inlet system. Make sure that the air cleaner, the air inlet, and the exhaust are not
restricted.
Pressurized System: Hot coolant can cause serious burns. To open the
cooling system filler cap, stop the engine and wait until the cooling
system components are cool. Loosen the cooling system pressure cap
slowly in order to relieve the pressure.
9. After the engine is cool, remove the cooling system filler cap slowly in order to release pressure.
Inspect the filler cap. Check the condition of the gasket. Check the sealing surface for the cap.
The gasket and the sealing surface must be clean and free of gouges, nicks, and grooves.

Check the coolant frequently in cold weather for the proper protection against freezing. Use the 245-5829
Coolant/Battery Tester Gp in order to ensure adequate freeze protection. The tester gives immediate,
accurate readings. The tester can be used for antifreeze/coolants that contain ethylene or propylene glycol.
The tester is also used to check the condition of batteries (specific gravity). Instructions are provided with
the tester.
Adding pure antifreeze as a makeup solution for the cooling system top-off is an unacceptable practice.
Adding pure antifreeze increases the concentration of antifreeze in the cooling system. This increases the
concentration of the dissolved solids and the undissolved chemical inhibitors in the cooling system. Add
the antifreeze and water mixture in the same concentration as your cooling system. Refer to the engine's
Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Air and/or exhaust gas in the coolant causes foaming and aeration. Bubbles in the cooling system reduce
the heat transfer and the pump flow. Pockets of air or gas can prevent coolant from contacting parts of the
engine. The pockets allow hot spots to develop.
If the cooling system is not filled to the proper level or if the system is filled too quickly, air can be
trapped in the system. Leaks from components such as aftercoolers and hoses can allow air to enter the
system. The inlet of the water pump is a potential location for the entry of air.
To help prevent air from entering the cooling system, fill the system slowly. Make sure that all of the
hoses and pipe connections are secure.
If the cylinder head is loose or cracked, exhaust gas can enter the cooling system. Exhaust gas can also
enter the cooling system through internal cracks and/or defects in the cylinder head gasket.
Air and/or exhaust gas in the cooling system can cause overheating. Use the following test to check for
the presence of air and/or exhaust gas in the coolant.
1. Make sure that the cooling system is filled to the proper level.
Illustration 2 g00769076
2. Remove the plug from the radiator (if equipped). Install a hose into the hole for the plug.
3. Fill a glass container with water and place the other end of the hose into the container.
4. Start the engine. Operate the engine until normal operating temperature is reached.
5. Observe the end of the hose in the glass container.
A bubble may rise occasionally from the hose. This is normal.
If a stream of bubbles rise from the hose, air and/or exhaust gas in the coolant is indicated.

Use the following procedure in order to check the cooling system for leaks:
1. After the engine cools, carefully loosen the filler cap in order to release the pressure from the
cooling system. Remove the filler cap.
3. Install the 9S-8140 Pressurizing Pump onto the radiator's filler tube.
4. Increase the pressure reading on the gauge to 20 kPa (3 psi) more than the pressure on the filler cap.
5. Inspect the radiator, all connection points, and the hoses for leaks.
If no leaks are found and the gauge reading remains steady for a minimum of five minutes, the cooling
system is not leaking.
If leaking is observed and/or the gauge reading decreases, make repairs, as needed.

The crankshaft vibration damper limits the torsional vibration of the crankshaft. The visconic damper has
a weight that is located inside a fluid filled case.
The damper is mounted to the crankshaft on the front of the engine. Damage to the failure or failure of the
damper will increase vibrations. The increase in vibrations will result in damage to the crankshaft and to
other engine components. A deteriorating damper will cause more gear train noise at variable points in
the speed range.
A damper that is hot may be the result of excessive friction. This could be due to excessive torsional
vibration or misalignment. Use an infrared thermometer to monitor the temperature of the damper during
operation. If the temperature reaches 100 °C (212 °F), consult your Caterpillar dealer.
Inspect the damper for evidence of dents, cracks, and leaks of the fluid.
If a fluid leak is found, determine the type of fluid. The fluid in the damper is silicone. Silicone is
