Alternately wipe pump or specificarea dry and check for wet seepage.Do not use this check for seals.(20) GearPumpTest.(a) Use a fuel pump build up with only theparts required to drive the gear pump,minimum of pump body, withtachometerdrive and a completemainshaft cover assembly. If desired, acomplete fuel pump can be used if thegovernor plunger and weight assistplunger and spring assembly areremoved and pump housing is filled withfuel; this will prevent any possibledamage to governor plunger orgovernor barrel. Gear pump may bemounted directly to test stand withadapter bracket.(b) Install gear pump block plate, withgasket on each side, between gearpump and fuel pump body.(c) Remove fuel pump damper from gearpump and connect copper line fromorifice block to gear pump pressure tap.(d) Connect the fuel suction line to thesuction side of the gear pump. Run aline from the gear pump bleedconnection to the fuel supply tank.(e) Shut off the fuel manifold pressuregauge to prevent damage from overpressure.(f) The valve in the suction line and thevalve controlling the main flow orificeare to be fully open. All other valvesmust be completely closed. With thevalves in this position, fuel will berouted through the manifold orifice.(g) Start the pump drive and run the pumpat 400 to 450 rpm. The gear pumpmust pick up at this speed without theaid of priming. Any gear pump whichfails to pick up fuel must be rebuilt orreplaced in accordance with paragraph13-10f.b.InstructionsfortheFuelPumpTestStand. Thefuel pump test stand, figure 13-26, is requiredfor accurate testing and calibration of the feelinjection pump. Pump speeds may be variedcontinuously from 475 to 4750 rpm. Correctcalibration of the fuel injection pump is one ofthe most important procedures to satisfactoryengine operation.(1) TestOil. The fuel pump test stand must befilled with clean test oil No. 99011-68 orequivalent.13-44
