Course: Diesel Equipment Technology III (20107-III) > Section: Diesel Engines: Servicing the Electronic Fuel Management System

Inspection should include

- visually inspecting all high-pressure fuel components
- checking the torque on all fittings and bolts associated with the HPCR
- checking for dirty fuel filters
- determining the needed action.

Process/Skill Questions:

- Why are the hold-down clamps so critical in an HPCR system?
- What are the safety concerns when working around fuel? What other concerns outside the critical issues should be considered?
- What are the human body and life-threatening possibilities of releasing thousands of pounds of pressure because of poor installation or disassembly?
