Common Engine Terms
Bore Stroke Compression Ratio Displacement Horsepower
Bore Size The diameter of the cylinder Measured in inches or millimeters
Stroke How far the piston moves from TDC to BDC Equal to twice the crank radius
Compression Ratio Ratio between the cylinder volume with the piston at BDC and the volume with the piston at TDC Compression ratio of our engines are approximately a 16:1 (non-ACERT) and 18:1 (ACERT)
Displacement Engine size is expressed in liters or cubic inches
2 (3.14 X B ) X Stroke X No. of Cyls. Displacement = 4
Horsepower Horsepower is the rate of doing work (how quickly a force is applied through a distance) Horsepower can be expressed in pound feet per second 1 horsepower = 550 lb/ft per second = 33,000 lb/ft per minute
Engine Model Numbers 3208 Engine: 3200 = Engine Family & Relative Size (3000, 3200, 3300, 3400, 3500, 3600) 08 = number of Cylinders Depending on engine family, could be 04, 06, 08, 12, 16, 18, or 24
Engine Model Numbers 3116 Engine 3100 = Engine Family 11 = 1.1 liters per cylinder, so: 3126 has 1.2 liters per cylinder 3176 has 1.7 liters per cylinder 6 = number of cylinders (4 or 6)
Engine Model Numbers C-10, 10 liter truck engine 3176C is used in all other applications
C-12, 12 liter truck engine 3196C is used in all other applications
C7 replaced the 3126 engine C-9 replaced the 3306 engine On-Highway & D6
Engine Model Numbers 3406 Engine
3406E was a 14.6 liter engine until 1998 In 1998, 3406E was 14.6 or 15.8 liter for truck 3456 was the 15.8 liter in any non-truck application In 2000, 14.6 liter and 15.8 liter became C-15 and C-16 for truck, industrial applications In 2003, 15.2 liter truck is ACERT C15

Turbocharger
An exhaust driven air compressor Impeller on the left Turbine on the right Connecting shaft, free floating bearings, oil lubricated center housing
Causes of Premature Wear or Failure Poor oil quality Dirt ingestion Hot engine shut down
Waste Gate Turbocharger
• The wastegate is opened by the high pressure boost in the compressor side of the turbo. • Some of the exhaust gas then bypasses the turbine and escapes or ‘wastes’ to the exhaust stack.
Wastegate
Boost
Small turbo, No wastegate
Wastegate Actuator Spins up quicker for good engine response Regulates turbo speed & prevents over-speeding
Small turbo, with wastegate Large turbo No wastegate
Engine Load
Aftercooling
Heat exchanger for inlet air Series of metal tubes through which hot inlet air flows Heat from the air flowing from the tubes is absorbed through the tube walls and carried away 2 types Air to air (ATAAC) Jacket water (JWAC)
Causes of Premature Wearout & Failure of Aftercoolers Most common cause -- failure of the turbocharger compressor wheel Damages aftercooler tubes Coolant leakage into inlet air stream Poor coolant maintenance may cause pitting/corrosion of the aftercooler tubes Results in water to air leakage Hydraulic lock on the engine
Water Pump Flow of the coolant begins at the water pump Pump impeller creates the flow Water pumps are gear or belt driven Water pump seals Separates engine oil from coolant
Oil Cooler Engine coolant flows from the water pump directly into the oil cooler Oil carries heat away from critical engine parts Heat is transferred from the oil to the engine coolant
Oil Cooler Coolant flows through copper tubes in the oil cooler housing Oil flows around the outside of the tubes Scale build-up caused by improper cooling system maintenance can be cleaned out of tubes

Importance of Cooling System 40-60% Of All Engine Downtime Is Associated With Cooling System Problems Important Customer Reminders: Use proper start up procedures Clean debris from the radiator and fan Check radiator cap seal Inspect the water pump for leaks Select the right coolant
Function of Cooling System Maintain proper engine temperature for optimum performance Dissipates excess heat from other machine systems: Engine Transmission Hydraulic
Cools compressed inlet air to optimize combustion
Cooling System Components 1 Water Pump 2 Oil Cooler 3 Passages through block and head 4 Temp. Regulator & Regulator Housing 5 Radiator 6 Pressure Cap 7 Hoses & Pipes
Causes of Cooling System Wear & Failure Single most common problem – poor coolant quality Due to… Not maintaining adequate levels of coolant additives Using coolant that does not meet Cat’s specifications Not keeping the cooling system topped off Using coolant past its useful life Other problems include: Coolant to air leaks in the aftercooler Causes hydraulic lock Radiator or hose failures From reusing old radiators and hosing Failure to service the coolant relief valve
… most cooling system problems can be avoided with proper maintenance practices!
Cooling Systems Coolant flows around cylinder liners Absorbs heat from the combustion chamber Prevents breakdown of oil film between pistons and liners
Cooling Systems Coolant flows through passages in the cylinder block into the cylinder head Water seals between the head and block prevent coolant leaks Some engines have water ferrules to direct coolant to critical areas

MUI System
A unit injector is positioned above each cylinder A mechanically actuated governor controls fuel rate (scroll metered) with flyweights and springs Timing is fixed
EUI System A unit injector is positioned above each cylinder An Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls fuel rate and timing Injectors are mechanically actuated by a camshaft
EUI - Injector Fill Without pressure from the rocker arm, a spring keeps the plunger retracted Fuel flows into the injector through the fill / spill port, past the solenoid valve and into the barrel
EUI - Injection On a signal from the ECM, the solenoid closes the fuel valve Pressure elevates at the tip to the 5,500 psi needed to unseat the valve Injection begins
EUI - Injection Fuel continues to inject until the ECM signals the solenoid to open the valve Injection timing and duration is controlled by the ECM

Injector
Fuel System Wear & Failure Causes Short unit injector life due to excessive abrasive particles in the fuel Abrasive particles damage sealing surfaces causing leakage of high pressure fuel and low engine power Abrasive particles are inherent in most fuels Most particles can be removed by using High Efficiency filters Injector seizure due to excess water in the fuel Always small amounts of water in fuel, which is harmless Excess water in fuel reduces the lubricating film strength of fuel and causes seizure of the injector plunger and barrel Maximum amount of allowable water in fuel is 0.1%
Fuel System Wear & Failure Causes Injector sticking or seizure due to fuel overheating Fuel in the injector “cooks” and produces varnish which causes components to stick or seize Viscosity of hot fuel is inadequate and the fuel film thickness will not provide adequate protection against scuffing or seizure of the plunger and barrel Fuel overheating can be caused by operating in extreme ambient temperatures. An auxiliary fuel cooler installed in the fuel supply line to the cylinder heads may be required to limit fuel temperatures Running fuel tank too low, or running out of fuel causes the fuel to cycle through the engine too frequently and becomes very hot. This can be avoided by keeping the fuel tank levels at ¼ full or above
Fuel System Wear & Failure Causes Poor quality oil Fuel may be low in viscosity or lubricity. Fuel which is old or oxidized often contains excessive gums or resins which promotes injector sticking or seizure.

What is Remanufacturing? Differences between RepairRebuildRemanufacture
Repair Usually simple Fixes only a specific problem May not use genuine CAT parts depending on labor source.
Rebuild Usually retains the component identity More than a simple repair Usually done by dealer, customer or re-builder Restores to near original condition May not use genuine Cat parts Re-builder assumes the warranty liability Requires investments in tools, equip., training, etc Rebuild and return or exchange – turnaround time involved
Remanufacture Consistent factory environment Process and quality control Upgrades to latest engineering changes Harvest components (looses its original identity) Uses 100% genuine Cat parts Cat Reman carries standard parts warranty Requires cores – exchange only
