Run-In Procedure for Rebuilt Engine

Use this procedure to run-in your rebuilt engine safely:

• Step 1: Disconnect the wire to the electric shut-off on the injection pump to prevent the engine from starting. Crank the engine for 30 seconds to establish oil pressure, then reconnect the wire.
• Step 2: Remove air from the cooling system at the temperature sending unit.
• Step 3: Run the engine at 1000 RPM with minimum load for 5 minutes while inspecting for oil leaks.
• Step 4: Continuously monitor oil pressure, coolant level, and temperature throughout the process.

Run-In Procedure With a Dynamometer

When using a PTO dynamometer, follow these steps to manage the engine load and reduce stress on new engine parts:

• Utilize the dynamometer to control engine load and speed.
• Ensure all parameters are within recommended ranges to protect new components.
