3.8 Fuel Filter Pressure Test – Two-Filter Fuel System


The fuel filtration system consists of two filters, the prefilter and coalescer/final filter. The prefilter has the task of
filtering material down to 100 micron. The coalescer/final filter has two tasks. The first task is to separate out
emulsified water from the fuel. The second task is to filter material down to 3-5 micron. Generally, the
coalescer/final filter is the filter that reaches the pressure limit first. With the current configuration, both filters are
changed at the same time. The pressure limits when both fuel filters are to be replaced are listed in the following
table below.

Filter Pressure Limits using LPPO Fuel Pressure (DDDL)

3.9 Fuel System Integrity Check Routine -Two-Filter Fuel


System
Note : Note: Most fuel system troubleshooting procedures will include performing a Fuel System Integrity Check
(FSIC) routine.
The FSIC test runs the fuel system through several operational states and records important information which a
technician can use to determine a failed system or component without removing any components from the engine.
The following will give a good explanation of what the technician can expect and look for during the FSIC routine
or log file review.
When the FSIC routine is first activated, the fuel cutoff valve in the doser block will open allowing the fuel
compensation pressure sensor to read the regulated fuel pressure that is going into the doser block. At 0 rpm, the
fuel compensation pressure sensor will be at atmospheric pressure. When the engine starts to rotate, the fuel
compensation pressure sensor will increase in fuel pressure. Once the fuel compensation pressure reads 35 psi,
there will be enough supplied fuel pressure to build rail pressure. For KM59 GEN1 fuel systems, fuel pressure test
plug W470589099100 is installed in place of the doser pressure regulator; the actual fuel pressure available at the
high pressure pump inlet can be measured using the fuel compensation pressure sensor.

3.9.1 Fuel System Integrity Check Routine Operation Overview - Two-


Filter Fuel System

NOTICE
During the Fuel System Integrity Check (FSIC) routine, if at any time unusual sounds or
anything that may indicate engine damage or unsafe conditions, abort the FISC routine
immediately by turning the ignition OFF and contact the Detroit™ Customer Support
Center for further assistance at 800-445-1980.

Using DiagnosticLink 8.06 or newer, the Automatic FSIC routine runs the engine through a routine that starts at
600 rpm, then goes to 850 rpm, 950 rpm, 1100 rpm, 1500 rpm and 1800 rpm. After 1800 rpm the engine will:
• return to 600 rpm
• ramp the rail pressure to 800 bar for 60 seconds
• request the ignition be turned off and back on
• perform a Fuel System Leak Detection routine
On occasion, the Motor Control Module (MCM) may not allow the rail pressure to ramp to 800 bar, at this point the
routine will substitute the rail pressure ramp with an idle speed adjustment to 1400 rpm.

Note : If the fuel mass is over 50 mg/st at 600 RPM (engine at operating temperature), abort the FSIC routine and
contact the Detroit™ Customer Support Center for further assistance at (800-445-1980).
