Introduction
The operation of the Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector fuel system
is different from any other fuel system that is actuated
mechanically. The HEUI fuel system is free of adjustment.
Adjustments to the components that are mechanical cannot be
made. Changes in performance are made by installing different
software in the Electronic Control Module (ECM). This fuel system
consists of four basic components:
-Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector (HEUI)
-Electronic Control Module (ECM)
-Unit injector hydraulic pump
-Fuel transfer pump

Fuel is drawn from the fuel tank and flows through a 13 micron
primary fuel filter/water separator. The primary fuel filter/water
separator removes large debris from the fuel. The primary filter
element also separates water from the fuel. The water is collected
in the bowl at the bottom of the primary fuel filter/water separator.
Fuel flows from the primary fuel filter/water separator to the inlet
side of fuel transfer pump. Fuel flows from the inlet port in the
pump to the outlet port. Pressurized fuel flows from the outlet port
of the pump to the 2 micron secondary fuel filter. A two micron
secondary fuel filter is standard on all Caterpillar engines. These
fuel filters are high efficiency. This filter removes small abrasive
contaminants from the fuel. The primary fuel filter/water separator

Fuel flows from the 2 micron secondary filter to the fuel supply
passage in the cylinder head. The fuel supply passage is a drilled
hole which begins at the front of the cylinder head. The fuel supply
passage extends to the back of the cylinder head. This passage
connects with each unit injector bore in order to supply fuel to unit
injectors. The excess fuel flows out of the back of the cylinder
head. The fuel flows into the fuel pressure regulator.
Oil flows into the inlet port of the unit injector hydraulic pump and
the oil fills the pump reservoir. The pump reservoir provides oil to
the unit injector hydraulic pump during start-up. Also, the pump
reservoir provides oil to the unit injector hydraulic pump until the
engine oil pump can increase pressure.
Actuation oil that is under high-pressure flows from the unit injector
hydraulic pump through the cylinder head to all of the injectors. Oil
is contained in the high-pressure oil passage until the oil is used by
the unit injectors. Oil that has been exhausted by the unit injectors
is expelled under the valve covers. This oil returns to the
crankcase through oil drain holes in the cylinder head.

The unit injector hydraulic pump is driven by the gear train on the
front of the engine. The drive gear on the front of the pump turns
the common shaft. The angled drive plate is mounted on the
common shaft. The rotation of the angled drive plate causes the
pump piston to move in and out within the sliding sleeves.
As the pistons move out of the sliding sleeves, oil is drawn into the
inside of the pistons through the passage in the drive plate. Oil is
forced out of the piston when the piston is pushed back into the
sliding sleeve and the ports are exposed.
Changing the relative position of the sliding sleeve to the spill port
changes the volume of oil in the piston. The location of the sliding

actuation pressure.
-Oil Flow (engine running)
A small amount of pump outlet flow flows through the actuator
piston and into the control pressure cavity. Control pressure
increases and the increased pressure unseats the poppet valve.
The open poppet valve allows flow to the drain. The ECM changes
control pressure by increasing or reducing the current to the
control valve solenoid and resultant force on the poppet.
