b. Slightly loosen the injector nut (one cylinder at a time.) Crank engine until
no bubbles are visible (observe engine starter cranking limits to avoid
water flooding of cylinders and starter overheating. See engine procedures
“Extended Cranking Required” on page 22, above.)
9. After opening any part of the fuel system monitor carefully for leaks.
10. Do an immediate operational check.
11. During first hour of engine operation, check frequently.
Primary Fuel Filter Maintenance Procedures (these checklists are posted above
the Primary filter)
Primary fuel filter sediment draining procedure (Draining is periodically done
by bosuns. For boat crew, this is a troubleshooting procedure in event of engine
stoppage.)
1. Make sure engine is off and not hot.
2. Close shut-off valve between fuel tank and filter (top of fuel tank).
3. When opening any part of the fuel system, be ready with drip containers and
absorbent material to prevent fuel contamination of bilge that will be pumped
overboard. A drip pan, waste fluids bottle and funnels are under the starboard
settee.
4. Open vent plug on mounting head with a 1/2" wrench (silver bolt on side of
mounting head—see illustration below).
5. Remove sump drain valve cap (not shown in illustration.)
6. Open sump drain valve to drain contaminated fuel. Push the valve center
button up to open.
NOTE--Do not leave drain open for very long. It will drain the entire filter of all
fuel and require extensive system air bleeding.
WARNING
Keep hair and loose clothing clear of accessory drive belts
on turning engine.
