CORRECTIVE ACTION
1.
Remove fuel line and cold start heater from intake manifold (WP 0105).
WARNING
Particles blown by compressed air are hazardous. DO NOT exceed 15 psi
(103 kPa) nozzle pressure when drying parts with compressed air. Use a maximum
of 30 psi (207 kPa) when cleaning components. DO NOT direct compressed air
against human skin. Failure to follow this warning may cause injury or death. Make
sure air stream is directed away from user and other personnel in the area. To
prevent injury, user must wear protective goggles or face shield.
2.
Connect an air supply with maximum 20 psi (140 kPa) to fuel inlet passage of cold start heater.
3.
Submerge cold start heater in a container of clean diesel fuel for 10 seconds.
4.
No air bubbles should be visible from cold start heater.
a.
If bubbles are visible from the cold start heater, replace cold start heater (WP 0130).
b.
If bubbles are not visible from the cold start heater, install cold start heater (WP 0130) and
