CRANKCASE EXPLOSION RELIEF VALVES

Crankcase explosion relief valves, seen here, arenormally attachments but are required on marineengines. They are available for industrial andgenerator set arrangements. These valves relievethe pressure of an explosion in the crankcase. Anexplosion is possible when combustible gasesstart to burn because of heat or sparks. Acommon cause of ignition is heat from a failedbearing. Explosion relief valves open to releasethe pressure of an explosion - then close toprevent a second cycle of combustion. Basicallythey stop oxygen from getting in, which wouldpermit further combustion.

AIR INDUCTION AND EXHAUST SYSTEM

In this diagram of the air induction and exhaust system, we seethe turbochargers (two), the air inlet system piping, theaftercooler, the air inlet plenum and elbows, the inletport and intake valves, the combustion chamber, theexhaust valves and the exhaust manifolds.

The location of the air inlet system, exhaust manifolds,turbochargers, piping, aftercooler and air plenum areall in the center of the vee of the block.

Intake air comes through the air cleaners (not shown) and intothe compressor inlet of each turbocharger. Velocity ofthe air is increased by the turbocharger compressorimpeller. The air is sent through the piping into theaftercooler inlet where it has increased in pressure andtemperature. The air then goes down through theaftercooler into the plenum chamber in the center ofthe vee. The air is cooled by jacket water in theaftercooler. The decrease in temperature of the air canrange from 38º to 93ºC or 100º to 200ºF.

COOLING SYSTEM FLOW

Coolant flow comes from the elbow which is connectedto the radiator or other heat exchanger into thecenter of the water pump. The cooler flow isdivided at the outlet of the water pump. One partflows to the aftercooler; the other part to the oilcooler.

Coolant sent to the aftercooler goes through theaftercooler and is sent by an elbow into apassage in the block near the center of the vee atthe rear of the block. The coolant sent to the oilcooler goes through the oil cooler and flows intothe water jacket of the block at the right rearcylinder. The coolant mixes and goes to bothsides of the block through distribution manifoldsconnected to the water jack of all the cylinders.The main distribution manifold is located justabove the main bearing oil gallery.

COOLING SYSTEM FLOW

The coolant flows up through the water jackets andaround the cylinder liners from the bottom to thetop. Near the top of the cylinder liners, wherethe temperature is the hottest, the water jacket ismade smaller. This shelf (smaller area) causesthe coolant to flow faster for better liner cooling.Coolant from the top of the liners goes into thecylinder head which sends the coolant aroundthe parts where the temperature is the hottest.Coolant then goes to the top of the cylinder headand out through an elbow, one at each cylinderhead, into a manifold, one for each back ofcylinders. Coolant goes through the manifold tothe thermostat housing.

The bypass line goes from the temperature regulatorhousing to the inlet of the water pump. Theregulators in the housing control coolant flow tothe radiator or heat exchanger to regulate thetemperature in the cooling system. When thecoolant temperature is not high enough to openthe regulators, the coolant will flow through thebypass line (bypassing the radiator) to circulatethrough the engine for quick warm-ups.

NOTE: It should also be noted that the housing whichcontains the regulators are installed in differentpositions for different cooling applications.

For information on controlled inlet systems used onsome 3500 Marine Engines, look at ServiceTraining Meeting Guide 372 - 6.25 Inch BoreVee Engines, LESV0501 (slides 44 and 45).

Four temperature regulators are in the thermostat housing.The housing has an upper and lower section. Thesensing bulbs of the four temperature regulators arein the coolant in the lower section of the housing.Before the regulators open (upper inset), coldcoolant is sent through the bypass line to the inletof the water pump. As the temperature of thecoolant increases to 88°C (180°F) and theregulators start to open (lower inset), coolant flowin the bypass line is stopped and coolant is sentthrough the outlets to the radiator or heatexchanger.

Coolant capacity is given in the Operation Guide for theengine only. Total system capacity will depend onthe size of the radiator or heat exchanger. Toprevent the coolant from freezing, it should have amixture of 50 percent pure water, 50 percentpermanent antifreeze and a 3 to 6 percentconcentration of corrosion inhibitor.

When the regulator is closed (engine cold) coolant goesthrough the regulators. The coolant returns to theinlet of the water pump by way of the bypasspipe (which is fastened to the opening in thefront of the housing) and does not get to theradiator.

When the regulator is open (engine hot) coolant goesthrough the regulator out the side of the housingand then to the radiator for cooling.

On marine applications, the position of the regulatorhousing will be upside down from the position inthe photo.

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM FILL PROCEDURE

Fill the cooling system at a rate that is not more than five(5) gallons (19 litres) per minute. This willprevent air pockets in the cooling system.Normally, the system will bleed itself of air. Thisis made possible by a ball and seat in theregulator housing. The ball will lift off the seatand the air and water can pass so there will not bean air-locked system. When a faster fill rate thanfive (5) gallons per minute is used, take extracaution to be sure the system is completely filledand no air pockets are in the system.

NOTE: The Marine and Marine Auxiliary Engines willhave either keel cooling systems or raw (sea)water cooling systems. For more information onthese types of cooling systems, the system in the6.25 Inch Bore Vee Engines is similar to thecooling systems on the 3512 Marine and MarineAuxiliary Engines. Look at STMG 372, 6.25 InchBore Vee Engines, LESV0501 (slides 43-45).

LUBRICATION SYSTEM

The engine oil pressure has a normal operating rangefrom 345 to 480 kPa (50 to 70 psi) and will beapproximately 450 kPa (65 psi) at full loadrpm. Flow of oil through the engine at ratedrpm is approximately 340 litres/min (90 gpm).

In this diagram of the lubrication system, we see theoil reservoir (sump in the oil pan), the oilpump (1) with a pressure relief valve (2); theoil cooler (3) with a bypass valve (2); the oilline from the cooler to the oil filterbase/housing (4); with bypass valve (2) [onebypass valve for each filter]. The oil goes fromthe oil filters through the oil line to the oilelbow (manifold) on the left top front of theblock.

The oil pump takes oil from the sump and sends itthrough the oil cooler, oil filters, and into theoil elbow (manifold).

Oil is sent to the turbochargers through outside lines (9)that are connected to the elbow on the left from(if turbocharger is top mounted). Turbochargerdrain lines empty into the camshaft compartmentsthrough the camshaft side covers (10).

In the elbow (manifold), the oil is divided; one branch issent to a camshaft oil gallery (7) below thecamshaft and fuel control shaft, the other branchto a main oil gallery (5) which is above the mainbearings of the crankshaft and on the centerline ofthe block.

The main oil gallery (5) sends oil through verticallydrilled passages to each main bearing, thenthrough the crankshaft to each connecting rodbearing.

The oil goes throughhollow dowels to the cylinder heads throughpassages to the three lifters (two lifters forvalves, one for the injector) and the rocker armshaft (12).

Oil is sent from each end of the main oil gallery (5)through small passages to the sequence valves(6). The two sequence valves control oil flowinto piston cooling jet manifolds. There is onesequence valve on the left front of the block forthe left passage and one on the right rear of theblock for the right passage.

The purpose of the valves is to stop oil flow into thepiston cooling jet manifold until oil in passage (5)has more than 140 kPa (20 psi) pressure. Duringengine start-up, the sequence valves decrease thetime needed for the oil pressure to come up in themain oil gallery to the main and connecting rodbearings. The sequence valves also hold the oilpressure up during engine idling, especially whenthe oil is hot, and parts are worn.

When the oil pressure is more than 140 kPa (20 psi), thesequence valves open and let oil go to the lowersmall passages (8) alongside of the crankcase. Thisoil is sent to the piston cooling jets (one for eachpiston). Each cooling jet has two openings. As oilis forced through each opening, one stream (spray)of oil is sent to a passage in the bottom of thepiston which takes the oil to a circular manifoldinside the piston and cools the piston. The otherstream of oil hits the piston underside to cool itand give lubrication to the piston pin and bearing.

VEHICLE FILTER ARRANGEMENT

On the left side of the engine, we see the three oil filters. Theoil goes from the filter base housing to the manifold(elbow) on the front left top of the block. The oil flowfrom the oil cooler goes through the line on the rightinto the filter base/housing and to the oil filters. (Theoil filters shown are full-flow type spin-on filters.)

Each oil filter has a bypass valve behind the plates (seearrows). When the oil filters have a restriction, thebypass valve opens and sends the flow directly to theoil line on the left which sends the oil to the block.

Each oil filter bypass valve will open when there is a pressuredifference of 180 to 200 kPa (26 to 32 psi) across thefilter (from the inlet side of the filter to the outlet sideof the filter).

NOTE: Other applications of this engine can have the oilfilters at other locations.

FUEL SYSTEM

The fuel transfer pump (2) pulls fuel from the tankthrough the inlet line (1) and forces it through acheck valve and into the line to the fuel filters(3). After the fuel filters, the fuel flows to thefuel manifolds (6) along the inside of eachcylinder bank. The top inlet passage of themanifold sends fuel through lines connected toeach cylinder head. (Early engines had fuel filterscreens in the connectors.) Fuel flows into acircular space around the injector (5). Part of thisfuel is used for injection and part to cool theinjector. (Later engines have fuel filter screens inthe injectors.) The extra fuel that cools theinjector is returned through lines to the bottomoutlet passage of the fuel manifolds, through apressure regulating valve (7) and then through areturn line and to the tank.

FUEL SYSTEM

The priming pump (4) has a supply line from the inletside of the pump and sends fuel through thefilters, into the fuel manifolds. The location ofthe pressure regulating valve is on the front ofthe right fuel manifold (7). The pressureregulating valve is made to hold a constantpressure of approximately 415 kPa (60 psi). Thevalve makes a high resistance to the flow of fuelto 415 kPa (60 psi), but little resistance to air. Inthis way, air can be removed from the fuelsystem. A small orifice connects the inlet andoutlet passages to make a siphon break whenchanging filters, thus making it less possible thatthe system will need to have the air removedafter a filter change.

DIRECT INJECTION UNIT INJECTOR FUELSYSTEM

The 3500 Series Engines use the direct injection combustionsystem. This system has the advantages of: low heatrejection (in comparison to precombustion); low fuelconsumption; and easy starting.

UNIT INJECTOR AND CONTROL LINKAGE

A fuel injector (7) is in a central bore of each cylinder head.The position of the rack (6) of each injector ischanged by a bellcrank and bracket (5) that is held tothe top of the cylinder head by bolts. Each bellcrankis moved by a control rod (4) connected to a hollowtorsion shaft (1) through a lever (3). Rotation of thetorsion shaft (1) is done by the governor input shaft(10) and causes in and our movement of the rack (6).The torsion shafts (1 and 8) are just below thecamshafts of each bank of cylinders. A hollow crossshaft (9) at the front of the engine connects the righttorsion shaft (1) and left torsion shaft (8) so theymove together at the same time.

Also, there is a spring in the top end of the control rod.If one unit injector plunger will not turn (isSTUCK) or the rack of that unit injector will notmove, the control rod can still control the racksof the other injectors. This will prevent engineoverspeed and the engine can be stopped. Thisdesign characteristic is for protection of theengine from damage.

In the inset we can see the power pad. The power padhas the power setting screw cover. The powersetting screw cover has two bolts. The top bolt isthe synchronizing pin and fastens the powersetting screw cover. The bottom bolt also holdsthe cover on. With the cover removed, we can seethe power setting screw and locknut.

The hole to the right of the power screw is where thecollet and dial indicator is installed formeasurement and adjustment of the power setting.The hole to the left of the power setting screw isfor the synchronizing pin (the top bolt). This pinis used to put the fuel control linkage in thereference (fixed) position, when the synchronizingadjustment is made to the unit injectors.

NOTE: This illustration is not correct. The seal goesthrough the cover bolt, not the synchronizing pin.

In this slide we see the fuel control linkage operationfrom the front of the engine. When the speedcontrol of the governor is moved towardmaximum rpm, the governor output shaft (blackarrow) turns clockwise and moves the governorshaft lever to the left. A pin in the governor shaftlever is in the groove in the fuel stop lever andmoves it to the left. The fuel stop lever turns theright torsion shaft counterclockwise as seen bythe arrow. This counterclockwise movementmoves the control rod up. This movement pivotsthe bellcrank and pulls the rack out of theinjector in the fuel “ON” direction.

The right and left torsion shafts always move together.The ends of the shafts are connected to the endsof the cross shaft by a fork lever-ball leverarrangement (to understand better, see ironlater).

The injection of fuel is made by the rotation of theengine camshaft which causes the cam to lift thelifter assembly and push the rod up. When thepush rod moves the injector rocker arm up, thecontact of the rocker arm pushes the follower aninjector plunger down. As the plunger movesdown, fuel is injected into the combustionchamber. As the lower scroll on the plunger goesbeyond the lower port, injection stops. When therocker arm stops its downward movement, thefollower return spring pushes the follower upwith the plunger. The follower return spring alsokeeps a force on the rocker arm push rod andlifter. This force keeps the lifter in contact withthe cam.

Looking at the cutaway of the injector, we can see the:

1. plunger2. barrel3. lower port4. upper port; and the5. spill deflector

The plunger position shown is at the top of the stroke.The barrel (2) has an upper port (4) and a lowerport (3). The relation of the scrolls to the ports:

(1) changes the length of the effective stoke and thequantity of fuel per injection stroke;

(2) permits the start of the effective stroke to bevariable in relation to piston position.

The smaller the quantity (VOLUME) of fuel injectedduring the injection stroke, the later (NEARERTO TOP CENTER) injection takes place.

The larger the quantity (VOLUME) of fuel injectedduring the injection stroke, the earlier(FARTHER FROM TOP CENTER) injectiontakes place.

Movement of the control linkage and rack turns theplunger and changes the quantity of fuel injectedand the point at which injection starts.

The action of the double scroll is a method of timingadvance.

Older injectors are double scroll. Newer injectors aresingle scroll.

Let us look at the nozzle of the injector. We see the:

1. check valve2. check valve cage3. valve spring and seat4. spring cage5. needle valve6. spray tip; and the7. injector housing or nut

The spray tip has several small orifices. Each nozzlehas two dowels in the body which puts it in thecorrect position when installed. This positionputs the rack in the correct location with thebellcrank and the spray tip at the correct anglewith the surface of the piston.

The plunger position shown here is on the downwardstroke and the lower port is just closed.

The plunger position shown here is the start of theinjection stroke. Both the lower port and theupper port are closed. It is at the start of theeffective stroke.

During the effective stroke, the plunger forces fuel intothe nozzle of the injector. The fuel goes aroundthe check valve and through passages in thecheck valve cage. After fuel goes through thevalve spring cage, it goes into the passages in thespray tip. The passages sends the fuel to thechamber around the needle valve. Here the fuelpressure lifts the needle valve off the seat andfuel flows through the spray tip and out theorifices into the combustion chamber. Injectionof fuel continues until the lower scroll on theplunger goes by the lower port, the pressure ofthe fuel against the needle valve is less.

The valve spring pushes the needle valve closed. Thisstops the flow of fuel into the combustionchamber. Also, when the fuel is releasedthrough the lower port, the fuel pressure abovethe check valve decreases. The fuel pressure inthe tip chamber then pushes the check valve upagainst the end of the barrel. With the needlevalve on the seat and the check valve againstthe end of the barrel, combustion gasescannot get into the injector and causedamage between injection strokes.

NOTE: If the needle valve is held open by foreignparticles between injection cycles,combustion gases can come into the injectorand cause damage.

ENGINE TURNING TOOL

The top bolt in the cover plate of the bore for theengine turning tool is the timing bolt.

The timing bolt is used to find the location of No. 1piston on top center (TC).

This is important to the serviceman because thereference point for all timing procedures is withNo. 1 piston put at top center on thecompression stroke.

The pipe plug (arrow) is removed from the flywheelhousing to install the timing bolt.

LOCATING TOP CENTERCOMPRESSION STROKE FOR NO. 1

PISTON

To find top center compression stroke for No. 1 piston,first turn the flywheel clockwise a minimum of30 degrees. The reason for making this step is tobe sure the backlash is removed from the timinggears when the engine is put on top dead center.

Next, turn the flywheel counterclockwise until the holein the flywheel is in alignment with the timingbolt. When the timing bolt can be turned freelyin the threaded hole in the flywheel, the engineNo. 1 piston is on top center.

The valve arrangement is the same as other engine valvesactivated by push rods, except a valve bridge. Thebridge activates the two inlet valves or exhaust valvesat the same time (similar to the 3400 Series Engines).

The bridge fits on a dowel which is the guide when thebridge moves up and down. The bridge is moved(activated) by the rocker arm. Adjustment of the valvebridge is done when the engine is assembled andwhen valve lash adjustment is made.

To adjust the bridge, loosen the locknut, push down on therocker arm (or point of contact) and turn theadjustment screw clockwise until it contacts the stemof the valve. Turn the adjustment screw an additional20 to 30 degrees (1/3 to 1/2 of one side of the nut) toposition the guide of the bridge straight on the dowel.Tighten the locknut to specifications.

NOTE: Normally, adjustment of the bridge will be donewith the rocker arm assembly off the cylinder head.

VALVE CLEARANCE SETTING

Valve clearance or valve lash is measured with a feelergauge or 8T5207 setting gage, put between therocker arm contact and the bridge wear seat.Valve clearance is changed using a screwdriver.A 3/4 inch wrench is needed to loosen andtighten the locknut which holds the adjustmentscrew. To make the adjustment, turn theadjustment screw until you feel an easy pull onthe feeler gauge as you move it backward andforward between the rocker arm contact and thebridge wear seat. Tighten the nut on theadjustment screw and check the adjustment to besure it has not changed. The adjustment of allvalves and the injectors can be done by puttingthe engine crankshaft in two positions. Refer tothe Service Manual for these procedures.
