CAUTION!
•
Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces.
Drain the filter into an appropriate container.
•
Do not prefill the fuel filter when installing a new
fuel filter. There is a possibility debris could be
introduced into the fuel filter during this action. It
is best to install the filter dry and allow the in-tank
lift pump to prime the fuel system.
1. Ensure engine is turned off.
2. Place drain pan under the fuel filter drain hose.
3. Open the water drain valve one full turn counter-
clockwise and completely drain fuel and water into
the approved container.
4. Close the water drain valve.
5. Remove lid using a socket or strap wrench. Rotate
counterclockwise for removal. Remove used o-ring
and discard it.
6. Remove the used filter cartridge from the housing
and dispose of according to your local regulations.
7. Wipe clean the sealing surfaces of the lid and
housing.
8. Install new o-ring back into ring groove on the filter
housing and lubricate with clean engine oil.
NOTE:
Water In Fuel (WIF) sensor is reusable. Service kit
comes with new o-ring for filter canister and WIF sensor.
PRIMING IF THE ENGINE HAS RUN
OUT OF FUEL
WARNING!
Do not open the high pressure fuel system with the
engine running. Engine operation causes high fuel
pressure. High pressure fuel spray can cause serious
injury or death.
1. Add a substantial amount of fuel to the tank,
approximately 2 to 5 gal (8 L to 19 L).
2. Three priming cycles must be completed. Turn igni-
tion to the RUN position and wait approximately
30 seconds. This will activate the in tank fuel pump.
Turn the ignition switch to the off position, and leave
off for at least 30 seconds. Repeat this procedure
three times before cranking the engine.
3. Start the engine using the “Normal Starting” proce-
dure
4. Once the engine starts, allow the engine to idle for a
minimum of 30 seconds.
CAUTION!
Do not engage the starter motor for more than
15 seconds at a time. Allow two minutes between the
cranking intervals.
NOTE:
The engine may run rough until the air is forced from all
the fuel lines.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel blending agent.
They can be unstable under certain conditions and be
hazardous or explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
CAUTION!
Due to lack of lubricants in alcohol or gasoline, the use
of these fuels can cause damage to the fuel system.
NOTE:
•
A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel, meeting ASTM
specification D-975 may be used with your
Cummins® diesel engine.
•
A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel, meeting ASTM
specification D-7467 may be used with your
Cummins® diesel engine.
•
Use of biodiesel mixture in excess of 20% can nega-
tively impact the fuel filter's ability to separate water
from the fuel, resulting in high pressure fuel system
corrosion or damage.
