Assembly:
camshaft lobe. The priming lever is manually oper-
ated to prime and bleed the system.
The diaphrgam spring maintains required fuel
pressure to the injection pump. Fuel pressure should
be 12-14 psi (83-97 kPa) when operating at 1800 rpm.
Fuel pump pressure may be checked'by connecting a
pressure gauge and tee at the fuel outlet. A vacuum
gauge connected at the fuel inlet will show whether
the pump has enough capacity to lift fuel about
6
feet
(1.83 m). The fuel pump should produce
15
to 18
inches (381 to 457 mm) of vacuum at sea level.

Drive out rocker arm hinge pin.
Remove rocker arm, spring and link.
Lift out diaphragm assembly and diaphragm
spring.
Repair:'A kit is available for replacement of the dia-
phragm and spring. If the diaphragm is leaking or
broken, check for diluted crankcase oil and replace if
necessary. Occasionally, a worn rocker arm pin will
cause crankcase oil leakage.
If
this is the case, the
pump should be replaced.

When installing a new diaphragm, soak it in fuel
before assembling. Insert diaphragm spring and
soaked diaphragm into pump body.
Insert link and rocker arm into body and hook it
'over diaphragm pull rod. Align rocker arm with
rocker arm pin hole and drive
in
pin. The priming
lever must be
in
position shown in Figure

when
installing rocker arm.
Compress rocker spring and install between the
body and rocker arm.
Assemble cover to body with notch marks lined
up. Install screws, but do not tighten.
Push rocker arm
in
full stroke and hold in this
position to flex diaphragm.
Tighten cover screws alternately and securely,
then release rocker arm.
Install pump on the engine and repeat pressure
test.
INJECTION NOZZLES
Onan diesel engines use hydraulically-operated,
pintle-type injection nozzles, Figure
11.
They arefac-
tory adjusted to open at 1900 to 1950 psi
(13,110
to
13,455 kPa). However, after several hundred hours of
operation the nozzle pressure will decrease to about
1750
psi
(1
2,075
k Pa).
