    STC Oil Control Valve (Mechanical) - 4

    Uploaded by

    Parveen Kashyap
    This document provides instructions for testing an STC oil control valve. It describes how to check the lower shift point by raising the air pressure above the upper shift point and recording when the oil pressure rises above a threshold, which indicates the lower shift point. It then describes how to do a leak test by applying air pressure to the rail inlet and checking for bubbles, and how to check for engine oil leaks by disconnecting lines and inspecting them.

    Raise the air pressure at least 103 kPa [ 15 psi ] above the
    upper shift-point, then slowly begin to lower it. Record the air
    pressure at which the oil pressure raises above 55 kPa [ 8 psi
    ]. This is the lower shift-point (B).
    Note : The lower shift-point is the shift from normal to
    advanced timing. The overhead will go from quiet to
    noisy. This pressure must be lower than the upper shift-
    point. If it is not, rebuild or replace the STC oil control
    valve.
    Compare the shift-point values of those specified for the valve
    in the Calibrate section of this procedure.

    Leak Test
    Disc Valve

    Adjust the air pressure regulator until the air pressure gauge
    shows 0 kPa [ 0 psi ].

    Disconnect the fuel drain line from the injector return line and
    cap the fitting.

    If the STC oil control valve does not have a rail drain line,
    remove the rail drain plug from the STC oil control valve and
    install a hose approximately 0.5 meters [ 19.2 in ] in length.

    Put the fuel drain line into a bucket of water.

    Apply 693 kPa [ 100 psi ] air pressure to the rail inlet.

    Observe the bucket for air bubbles.

    If leakage exists, repair or replace the valve.

    O-ring

    Disconnect the fuel pressure signal (rail) line.

    Disconnect the fuel return (rail drain) line or remove the plug.

    Inspect the lines for engine lubricating oil.

    If engine lubricating oil is present, the o-rings will leak. Repair


    or replace the STC oil control valve.

    Note : Some engine operators blend engine lubricating


    oil into the fuel. Discolored fuel can be expected when
    blending is practiced. If the customer blends, continue
    below.

    Install plugs into the fuel pressure signal line and the fuel
    return line (if equipped).
    Remove the fuel pressure elbow fitting from the STC oil control
    valve.

    Start and operate the engine at 1200 RPM.

    Use a small screwdriver to manually shift the STC oil control


    valve several times by applying pressure to the disc valve
    retaining nut.

    If oil is observed, repair or replace the STC oil control valve.
