GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION TO THE VGF MODELS
Waukesha Engine, Dresser, Inc. manufactures both
inline and vee block VGF engines. Inline engines are
designated the F18 (6 cylinder) and H24 (8 cylinder).
Vee block engines are designated the L36 (12 cylinder) and P48 (16 cylinder).
The VGF F18 engine is a 6 cylinder, 4-cycle engine, and
has a total cylinder displacement of 18 litres (1096 cubic
in.). The F18 bore and stroke is 152 x 165 mm (5.98 x
6.5 in.), and piston speed is 9.9 meters per second
(1950 feet per minute) at 1800 rpm.
The VGF H24 engine is an 8 cylinder, 4-cycle engine,
and has a total cylinder displacement of 24 litres
(1462 cu. in.). The H24 bore and stroke is 152 x 165 mm
(5.98 x 6.5 in.), and piston speed is 9.9 meters per second (1950 feet per minute) at 1800 rpm.
The VGF L36 model is a 12 cylinder, 4-cycle engine,
and has a total cylinder displacement of 2,193 cubic
in. (35.9 litres). The L36 bore and stroke is 5.98 x
6.5 in. (152 x 165 mm) and piston speed is 1950 feet
per minute (9.9 metres per second) at 1800 rpm. The
engine rotates in a counterclockwise direction (facing
the flywheel).
The VGF P48 model is a 16 cylinder, 4-cycle engine,
and has a total cylinder displacement of 2,924 cubic
in. (47.9 litres). The P48 bore and stroke is 5.98 x
6.5 in. (152 x 165 mm) and piston speed is 1950 feet
per minute (9.9 metres per second) at 1800 rpm
(same as L36). The engine rotates in a counterclockwise direction (facing the flywheel).
Both inline and vee block VGF engines are available in
GL, GLD or GSID configurations. The F18/H24 engine
also comes in a G configuration. The GL and GLD
models have a compression ratio of 11:1. The GL LCR
model (F18/H24 engines only) has a compression
ratio of 8.7:1. The G/GSID model has a compression
ratio of 8.6:1.
The F18/H24 G engine is a non-turbocharged rich
combustion (stoichiometric) engine that operates on
natural gas for reduced emissions.
FORM 6284 Third Edition
The GL engine operates on natural gas and is

designed to burn a lean air/fuel mixture for low fuel
consumption and reduced emissions. GL engines are
equipped with a turbocharger that forces high velocity ambient air through the intercooler, carburetor and
intake manifold, before entering the combustion chamber.
The GLD engine is also a lean burn combustion
engine, except this engine uses a draw-thru fuel system. The turbocharger draws the air/fuel mixture
from the carburetors to the turbocharger, then forces
the mixture into the intercooler, intake manifold and
finally into the combustion chamber. This system
allows operation with a much lower fuel pressure than
the GL series.
The GSID engine is a rich combustion (stoichiometric)
engine that uses a draw-thru fuel system. The turbocharger draws the air/fuel mixture from the carburetors to the turbocharger, then forces the mixture into
the intercooler, intake manifold and finally into the
combustion chamber. The GSID is typically operated
at a setting just rich of stoichiometric (usually when
operating with a three way catalyst to produce very
low NOx emissions).
GENERAL INFORMATION
SERIAL NUMBERS AND ENGINE NAMEPLATE
The VGF engine nameplate provides the following
information: model number, serial number, date
inspected, special application approval number (power
approval), valve clearance, compression ratio, firing
order, governed speed, altitude limit at which an
engine derate takes place, primary and secondary fuel
ratings which show the fuel, minimum Waukesha
Knock Index (WKI), ignition timing, rated output in
horsepower and kilowatts, and overload rating in
horsepower and kilowatts (see Figure 1.15-1 and
Figure 1.15-2). This nameplate is located on the forward end of the intake manifold (F18/H24) or the left
bank intake manifold (L36/P48) (see Figure 1.15-3
and Figure 1.15-4).

When requesting information, you will need to reference both the engine model and serial numbers. If the
nameplate is defaced or detached, the serial number
may be obtained directly off the crankcase. To locate
it, look directly above the nameplate location, on the
cylinder head deck of the crankcase.
1.15-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
Intake Manifold Vacuum/Pressure Gauge: displays
the approximate intake manifold pressure or intake
manifold vacuum downstream of the throttle plate (see
Figure 1.15-5).
Oil Temperature Switchgage: monitors engine oil
temperature at the oil filter housing (see
Figure 1.15-5). This switchgage should be adjusted so
that the switchgage contacts close when the engine oil
temperature exceeds a setpoint as specified in
Section 4.50 Engine Protection Shutdown System
Maintenance on page 4.50-1.
NOTE: Switchgages are not approved for, or supplied
with, hazardous location (CSA approved) ignition
equipped engines.
Figure 1.15-3 VGF F18/H24 Nameplate Location
Ammeter: monitors current output of the belt driven

alternator option.
Magneto On/Off Switch: is to be used as a normal or
emergency shutdown switch. This switch will open the
magneto ignition circuit (to ground) in the OFF position which blocks the current flow path and closes the
magneto ignition circuit to allow current flow from the
magneto to the transformer coils in the ON position
(see Figure 1.15-5).
Pushbutton Start Switch: is used to complete the
cranking circuit to the starter solenoid (electric starters) or to engage the starter valve (air/gas starters)
(see Figure 1.15-5).

INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES

Oil Pressure Switchgage: monitors engine oil pressure at the main oil gallery (see Figure 1.15-5). This
switchgage should be adjusted so that the switchgage
contacts close when the engine oil pressure falls
below a setpoint as specified in Section 4.50 Engine
Protection Shutdown System Maintenance on page
4.50-1.
Jacket Water Temperature Switchgage: monitors
engine jacket water temperature at the water outlet
header (see Figure 1.15-5). This switchgage should
be adjusted so that the switchgage contacts close
when the engine jacket water temperature exceeds a
setpoint as specified in Section 4.50 Engine Protection Shutdown System Maintenance on page 4.50-1.
Intake Manifold Temperature Gauge: monitors
intake manifold charge temperature downstream of
the intercooler (see Figure 1.15-5). Setpoint depends
on application.
Electronic Tachometer: displays engine crankshaft
revolutions per minute (rpm) with a digital readout (see
Figure 1.15-5).

ENGINE COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

CRANKCASE
The crankcase is made of a cast iron alloy with nodular iron main bearing caps. Main bearing caps are
secured in place with two main bearing capscrews and
two crossbolts per bearing. Upper and lower crankcase doors are provided to allow access to the camshaft, the crankshaft and connecting rods.
The lubrication system is a full pressure system with a
gear type pump and three external full flow filter cannisters. An engine mounted cooler reduces the oil temperature.
CRANKSHAFT
Waukesha VGF engines rotate in the standard counterclockwise direction when facing the flywheel. The
forged steel crankshaft is dynamically balanced and
fully counterweighted and supported by seven main
bearings in the F18 and L36. The H24 and P48 use
1.15-4
nine main bearings. A viscous vibration damper

mounted on the front of the crankshaft reduces torsional stress.
CONNECTING RODS
The connecting rods are a drop forged alloy steel with
a split serrated mating surface.
PISTONS
The pistons are made of an aluminum alloy, with a
cast-in resist alloy top ring insert and a full floating piston pin. The pistons have a patented combustion bowl
that allows the use of a lean air/fuel ratio mixture for
fuel economy and reduced emissions. The piston and
the crown are oil jet cooled and use three rings.
CYLINDER SLEEVES
The cylinder sleeves are replaceable, wet style and
sealed with O-rings.
GENERAL INFORMATION
CAMSHAFT
Pivoted roller cam followers are used to transmit camshaft motion to the valves.
CYLINDER HEAD AND VALVES

This engine uses individual valve-in-head cylinder
heads. Two Stellite faced intake and two Stellite
faced exhaust valves, with replaceable valve seats
and guides are used in interchangeable cylinder
heads.
NOTE: Stellite is a registered trademark of Stoody
Deloro Stellite Inc.
TURBOCHARGER
High efficiency, radial flow turbocharger(s) is mounted
on top of the exhaust manifold on the engine. The turbocharger uses expanding exhaust gases to drive the
compressor turbine and generate the required boost
levels for the engine.
INTERCOOLER
A single box type intercooler is mounted on the
engine. The intercooler on GL engines receives air
from the turbocharger, cools the charge air and delivers the air to the carburetor. On GLD and GSID
engines, the intercooler receives the air/fuel mixture
from the carburetor, draws it through the turbocharger,
then cools the air/fuel charge for delivery to the intake
manifold.
CARBURETOR
The naturally aspirated G model is equipped with a
side draft carburetor. The GL model has push-thru carburetion. The GLD and GSID models have draw-thru
carburetion. Gas regulators are different depending on
application and are generally engine mounted.
The standard equipment air cleaner is an engine
mounted, two stage, dry element air cleaner with a
rain shield and service indicator.
INTAKE MANIFOLD
The air/fuel mixture passes through the intake manifold located on the left side of the engine. The individual ignition coils for each cylinder are mounted on the
intake manifold(s).
EXHAUST MANIFOLD
The exhaust manifold is located on the right side of the
engine and supplies the exhaust gases to drive the
turbochargers. The manifold is jacket water cooled
and sound damped with coolant that is supplied by
water elbows from each cylinder head.
