Chapter 8 PERIODIC INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

Fuel Pipe - Inspect

High Pressure Fuel Injection Pipe and Clamp Seat - Inspect and Replace

Visual Inspection

Check clamp seat for cracks and wear. Check high 
pressure fuel injection pipe for wear. If defective, 
replace the clamp seat with a new one. Replace the 
high pressure fuel injection pipe with a new one if 
needed.

During Every Major Overhaul

Replace clamp seat with a new one. Also, check high 
pressure fuel injection pipe for wear. If defective, 
replace the high pressure fuel injection pipe with a 
new one.

During Every Other Major Overhaul

Replace all high pressure fuel injection pipes with new 
ones.

Clamp Seat - Inspect and Replace

Low Pressure Fuel Pipe and Clip - Inspect

Visual Inspection During Overhaul 

Loosen clamp retaining bolts and check for clip wear 
and metal contact between pipe and clamp. If defec-
tive, replace the pipe assembly with a new one.

During Every Other Major Overhaul

Replace the pipe assembly with a new one.
