STC Oil Control Valve (Mechanical) - 6

The document provides instructions for calibrating the STC oil control valve on Cummins engines. The summary is: 1. Disconnect the fuel pressure line and install an air supply line to calibrate the valve. 2. Use an Allen wrench to adjust the valve's screw to raise or lower the upper shift point within the specified range of 386-420 kPa for K38 engines and 538-572 kPa for K50 engines. 3. Reinstall the tamper resistant wire and tighten the screw locknut once calibration is complete.

12/30/22, 4:06 PM STC Oil Control Valve (Mechanical)

Tighten the STC adjusting screw locknut.

Install the acorn nut on the STC adjusting screw.

Install the tamper proof wire between the acorn nut and the
capscrew.

Dual STC

Disconnect fuel pressure signal line (1) and install a plug in it.

Install a regulated air supply to the fuel pressure fitting (2). Use
Regulator, Part Number ST-990-40, or equivalent.

Install gauge (3), Part Number 3375275, or equivalent to the


air pressure regulator. 0 to 693 kPa [ 0 to 100 psi ].

Connect a shop air supply line to the regulator inlet. This


procedure requires a 693 kPa [ 100 psi ] air supply.

Remove an oil outlet line (4).

Install a tee fitting, Part Number ST-434-1 and Gauge, Part


Number 3823204, or equivalent.

The gauge must be capable of 0 to 413 kPa [ 0 to 60 psi ].

12/30/22, 4:06 PM STC Oil Control Valve (Mechanical)

Remove the tamper resistant wire from the acorn nut at the
rear of the STC oil control valve.

Remove the acorn nut from the STC oil control valve adjusting
screw.
Loosen the lock nut on the STC oil control valve adjusting
screw.

Use an Allen wrench to turn the STC oil control valve adjusting
screw. Turn the screw in a clockwise direction to raise the
STC oil control valve upper shift-point. Turn the screw in a
counterclockwise direction to lower the upper shift-point.

After adjusting the screw, repeat the STC shift-point check


procedure steps.
Note : Always start with the air pressure at 0 psi before
checking the upper shift-point (A). Always raise the air
pressure to at least 138 kPa [ 20 psi ] above the upper
shift point (A) before checking the lower shift-point (8). If
the air pressure is not controlled correctly, inaccurate
measurements will result.

Repeat the calibration and check procedure until the shiftpoints


are within the set values listed for each engine model. If the
valve can not be calibrated to these specifications, replace the
STC oil control valve.

Upper Shift Point


Engine Model
Specification
K38 386 ± 34 kPa [ 56 ± 5 psi ]
K50 538 ± 34 kPa [ 78 ± 5 psi ]

Tighten the STC adjusting screw locknut.

Install the acorn nut on the STC adjusting screw.

Install the tamper resistant wire between the acorn nut and the
capscrew.
