RG12027 –UN–03DEC01
OUO1080,000020E –19–26NOV01–1/1
Depending on the final destination, engines can meet
the emissions regulations according to the US
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), California Air
Resources Board (CARB) and for Europe, the
Directive 97/68/EC relating the measures against the
emissions of particles and gaseous pollutant from
internal combustion engines. Such engines are called
“CERTIFIED” and receive an emission label stuck on
the engine.
The regulations prohibit tampering with the
emission-related components listed below which would
render that component inoperative or to make any
adjustment on the engine beyond published
specifications. It is also illegal to install a part or
component where the principle effect of that
component is to bypass, defeat, or render inoperative
any engine component or device which would affect
the engine’s conformance to the emission regulations.
To summarize, it is illegal to do anything except
return the engine to its original published
specifications.
NOTE: Refer to Section 01, Group 002 of CTM104 Base

1
DPSG,OUO1004,2761 –19–16MAY00–1/1
Consult your local fuel distributor for properties of the
diesel fuel available in your area.
In general, diesel fuels are blended to satisfy the low
temperature requirements of the geographical area in
which they are marketed.
Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 are
recommended.
Required fuel properties
In all cases, the fuel must meet the following
properties:
Cetane number of 45 minimum. Cetane number
greater than 50 is preferred, especially for
temperatures below -20°C (-4°F) or elevations above
1500 m (5000 ft).
Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) below the
expected low temperature OR Cloud Point at least
5°C(9°F) below the expected low temperature.
Fuel lubricity should pass a minimum load level of
3100 grams as measured by ASTM D6078 or,
maximum scar diameter of 0.45 mm as measured by
ASTM D6079.
Sulfur content:
• Diesel fuel quality and fuel sulfur content must
comply with all existing regulations for the area in
which the engine operates.
• Sulfur content less than 0.05% (500 ppm) is
preferred.
• If diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 0.05%
(500 ppm) is used, crankcase oil service intervals
may be affected. (See recommendation for Diesel
Engine Oil.)
• DO NOT use diesel fuel with sulfur content greater
than 1.0%.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT mix used engine oil or any
other type of lubricating oil with
diesel fuel.

Bio-Diesel Fuel
2
Consult your local fuel distributor for properties of the
bio-diesel fuel available in your area.
Bio-diesel fuels may be used ONLY if the bio-diesel
fuel properties meet the latest edition of ASTM PS121,
DIN 51606 or equivalent specification.
It has been found that bio-diesel fuels may improve
lubricity in concentrations up to a 5% blend in
petroleum diesel fuel.
When using a blend of bio-diesel fuel, the engine oil
level must be checked daily when the air temperature
is -10°C (14°F) or lower. If the oil becomes diluted with
fuel, shorten oil change intervals accordingly.
IMPORTANT: Raw pressed vegetable oils are NOT
acceptable for use for fuel in any
concentration in John Deere
engines.
These oils do not burn completely,
and will cause engine failure by
leaving deposits on injectors and in
the combustion chamber.
Fuels
A major environmental benefit of bio-diesel fuel is its
ability to biodegrade. This makes proper storage and
handling of bio-diesel fuel especially important. Areas
of concern include:
• Quality of new fuel
• Water content of the fuel
• Problems due to aging of the fuel
Potential problems resulting from deficiencies in the
above areas when using bio-diesel fuel in
concentrations above 5% may lead to the following
symptoms:
• Power loss and deterioration of performance
• Fuel leakage
• Corrosion of fuel injection equipment
• Coked and/or blocked injector nozzles, resulting in
engine misfire
• Filter plugging
• Lacquering and/or seizure of internal components
• Sludge and sediments
• Reduced service life of engine components
Testing Diesel Fuel
DIESELSCAN is a John Deere fuel analysis program
that can be used to monitor the quality of your fuel. The
DIESELSCAN analysis verifies fuel type, cleanliness,
water content, suitability for cold weather operation, and
whether the fuel meets specifications.
Check with your John Deere dealer for availability of
DIESELSCAN kits.

Lubricity of Diesel Fuel
Diesel fuel must have adequate lubricity to ensure
proper operation and durability of fuel injection system
components.
Diesel fuels for highway use in the United States and
Canada require sulfur content less than 0.05% (500
ppm).
Diesel fuel in the European Union requires sulfur
content less than 0.05% (500 ppm).
Experience shows that some low sulfur diesel fuels
may have inadequate lubricity and their use may
reduce performance in fuel injection systems due to
inadequate lubrication of injection pump components.
The lower concentration of aromatic compounds in
these fuels also adversely affects injection pump seals
and may result in leaks.
Fuels
01
002
3
Use of low lubricity diesel fuels may also cause
accelerated wear, injection nozzle erosion or corrosion,
engine speed instability, hard starting, low power, and
engine smoke.
Fuel lubricity should pass a minimum load level of
3100 gram as measured by the ASTM D6078 or
maximum scar diameter of 0.45 mm as measured by
ASTM D6079.
ASTM D975 and EN 590 specifications do not require
fuels to pass a fuel lubricity test.
If fuel of low or unknown lubricity is used, add John
Deere PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL CONDITIONER (or
equivalent) at the specified concentration.

Fuel Injection Nozzle Test
CAUTION: The nozzle tip should always be
directed away from the operator. Fuel from the
spray orifices can penetrate clothing and skin
causing serious personal injury. Enclosing the
nozzle in a clear glass beaker is recommended.
Before applying pressure to the nozzle tester,
be sure that all connections are tight, and that
the fittings are not damaged. Fluid escaping
from a very small hole can be almost invisible.
To search for suspected leaks, use a piece of
cardboard or wood, rather than hands.
If ANY fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this type injury or gangrene
may result.
NOTE: Testing the performance of a nozzle while the
engine is running is just a rough test. To obtain a
true check of nozzle performance, use a nozzle
tester JT25510 (1) and pressure line KJD10109
(2).

X9811 –UN–23AUG88
High Pressure Fluid
Use only carefully filtered diesel fuel for testing
the injection nozzles, since dirty fuel will severely
damage the precision parts of a nozzle.
Connect the nozzle to the tester so that the axis of the
nozzle forms an angle of approximately 30° to the vertical
and the spray of fuel is directed downwards. Check all
connections for leaks. Close the gauge shut-off valve and
flush (bleed) the nozzle by operating test pump rapidly.

Spray Pattern Test
Close gauge shut-off valve and operate the pump lever at
60 strokes per minute. If the fuel injection nozzle is
working properly, the fuel should issue through all nozzle
02
orifices in a fine, evenly shaped spray cone. This spray
090
cone is inclined from the centerline of the nozzle body, but
20
should be distributed. For a better check, place a piece of
paper or cardboard at a suitable distance below the
nozzle and check the appearance of the damp circular
spots made by the fuel. Deviations from the regular spray
pattern or angle may be due to the complete or partial
clogging of a nozzle orifice. In this case the fuel issues in
a jet rather than in a fine spray.
Checking Valve Stem and Guide Wear
Connect fuel injection nozzle to the nozzle tester with the
tip raised a little higher than its opposite end.
Cover the tip and pump the tester to a pressure of
10 300 kPa (103 bar) (1500 psi). Keep the pressure
constant and observe how much fuel leaks out of the
nozzle return end. After the first drop has formed, count
the drops for 30 seconds and compare with specification.

.............
30 seconds
Checking Valve Seat
Connect the nozzle to tester in horizontal position.
Operate the pump lever rapidly to bleed the nozzle and
allow the valve to seat. Dry the tip of the nozzle
thoroughly. Now operate the pump lever slowly until the
indicated pressure is approximately 2800 to 3500 kPa
(28 to 35 bar) (400 to 500 psi) below opening pressure
(see specification for opening pressure). Keep watching
the nozzle. Under these conditions the fluid should not
drip out of the nozzle tip. However some weeping or light
moisture on the tip is considered acceptable. Work the
pump lever quickly several times in succession to make
the nozzle spray in the normal way. After the last stroke of
the pump, observe again. If the nozzle is not quite
leakproof, disassemble for servicing.

Any time the fuel system has been opened up for service
(lines disconnected or filters removed), it will be necessary
to bleed air from the system.
The fuel system may be bled at one of several locations.
On some engine applications it may be necessary to
consult your operator’s manual and choose the best
location for your engine/machine application.

Electronic Fuel System Operation
The fuel injection pump raises the required fuel
pressure for injection. This high pressure fuel is routed
through the delivery (pressure) lines to the fuel
injection nozzles (G). If there is excess fuel in the
injection pump, it is released through an overflow valve
(F) and returned to tank through the fuel leak-off line
(H).
Once the pressure of the fuel inside the injection
nozzle (G) overcomes the nozzle valve, fuel is forced
out a small orifice in the nozzle tip. This allows for fuel
to atomize as it enters the combustion chamber.
Excess fuel from the nozzles is routed through the fuel
return leak-off line and returns to the fuel tank. On
some applications, the fuel goes through a fuel cooler
before returning to the fuel tank.

Fuel Supply Pump Operation
The Sofabex fuel supply pump uses an eccentric lobe on
the engine camshaft to operate the lever (G) on supply
pump to pressurize fuel system.
Fuel is drawn by the diaphragm-type pump from the fuel
tank into the inlet side (D) of this pump.
As the lever (G) rides on the high side of the camshaft

pressure opens the inlet check valve (C) and fuel is drawn
4
into the pump.
As the camshaft lobe rotates to the low side, the return
spring (E) forces the diaphragm (I) upward. The resulting
fuel pressure closes the inlet check valve (C) and opens
the outlet check valve (B), delivering fuel through the
outlet (A) to the injection pump.
A hand primer lever (H) is provided for manually forcing
fuel through the system to bleed air from the fuel filter,
lines, etc.

Final Fuel Filter Operation
Fuel enters the filter at inlet (C), flows through filter
element (D) and exits through outlet (B) to the fuel
injection pump. The 5 micron filter element is housed in a
sediment bowl attached to the base with a threaded
retaining ring.
Since water and contaminants settle at the bottom of the
sediment bowl, a drain plug (E) is provided. On some
options, a water bowl is attached to the bottom of the
sediment bowl.
Air in the system can be expelled through the air vent
when bleed screw (A) is loosened. Optional priming pump
(F) draws fuel from the fuel tank to fill the filter bowl when
the filter element is changed. The priming pump also
supplies fuel from the filter to the injection pump.

the fuel has been pressurized by the transfer pump, it
can travel to three locations: inside the plungers of the
cam ring (D), into the injection pump housing cavities,
and recirculated back to the fuel inlet passage.
The main components of the Stanadyne DE10 fuel
injection pump are the driveshaft (B), the transfer
pump (C), cam ring (D) and shoes, distributor rotor
(H), pump control valve (G), and fuel control solenoid
(F). The crankshaft of the engine drives the driveshaft
of the pump using gears between the two components.
The rotation of the driveshaft moves the transfer pump,
cam shoes and rollers, and distributor shaft since all of
these components are engaged.
When the pump control valve is open, it allows the
transfer pump pressurized fuel to enter the high
pressure chamber. The Engine Control Unit (ECU)
energizes the fuel control solenoid which causes the
pump control valve to close. When the pump control
valve is closed, the plungers in the high pressure
chamber create injection pressure because they are
forced inward by the rotation of the cam ring. High
pressure fuel is forced through the discharge fittings to

Electronic Fuel System Operation
Some of the transfer pump pressure fuel is released
through a port that contains a vent wire into injection
pump housing cavities. The purpose of housing
pressure fuel is to keep the injection pump
components cooled and lubricated. The amount of fuel
that is released into the housing is determined by the
size of the vent wire. The pressure of the housing is
controlled by the fuel return fitting/pressure regulator
(J). If the pressure exceeds the regulator, it will return
fuel to the fuel tank. The ECU monitors the fuel
temperature of the housing through a fuel temperature
sensor (I). For more information on the fuel
temperature sensor, see MEASURING
TEMPERATURE in Group 140 of this Section.
The remaining transfer pump pressure fuel travels
through a transfer pump regulating valve. This allows
for fuel to return to injection pump inlet pressure. It
circulates the fuel back through the transfer pump.

superimposed spring clamps which press on a location
clamp and a cap screw. The contact pressure is limited by
a spacer ring. The nozzle is sealed in the cylinder head at
its lower end with a carbon stop seal (B). The top end is
sealed with seal washer (D). Clamp (P) ensures correct

Electronic Control System Operation
Electronic Control System Operation
Engine Starting Mode
When the key is turned to the “ON” position, a
switched power voltage is sent to the Engine Control
Unit (ECU). This energizes the ECU and allows it to
“boot-up” and ready itself for engine start.
NOTE: If a wiring problem prevents the key ON signal
from getting to the ECU, the engine will not
start.
As soon as the ECU receives an input from the
crankshaft position sensor that the engine is cranking,
it will move the pump control valve to the “pressure”
position, which will allow injection pressure to be
developed. The fuel is delivered to all of the cylinders.
To provide cold temperature enrichment, the amount of
fuel injected is based on the temperature measured by
the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor. At this
point, the engine will start and the ECU will go into the
running mode.
Engine Running Mode
In the running mode, the ECU monitors information
from the various sensors, then determines the
optimum amount of fuel to inject and the optimum
injection timing in order to allow the engine to develop
high power while maintaining low exhaust emission
output. The ECU controls fuel delivery by energizing
and de-engergizing the pump control valve solenoid.
When the ECU energizes the solenoid, the pump
control valve closes and injection begins. When the
correct amount of fuel has been injected, the ECU
de-energizes the solenoid, causing the pump control
valve to open, and fuel injection to stop.

Measuring Temperature
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor, Loss of
Coolant Temperature sensor, Manifold Air Temperature
(MAT) sensor, and Fuel Temperature sensor are
thermistors (temperature sensitive variable resistors). The
sensors’ resistance goes down as the temperature that it
is exposed to goes up (negative temperature coefficient).
Higher temperatures result in lower voltages and lower
temperatures result in higher voltages. The Engine Control
Unit (ECU) sends 5 volts to the sensor, monitors the
voltage drop across the sensor, and compares the voltage
drop to preprogrammed values in the ECU’s memory in
order to determine temperature. In addition to temperature
sensors, some applications use temperature switches.
The loss of coolant temperature switch is an example.
Temperature switches close when a specific temperature
is reached.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
On most applications, the Engine Coolant Temperature
(ECT) sensor is located in the thermostat housing (A). On
other applications, it may be located at the rear of the
cylinder head.
The ECU monitors coolant temperature for:
• Engine protection purposes. For more information on
engine protection and derate programs see, ENGINE
PROTECTION or DERATE PROGRAMS later in this
Group.
• Starting fuel quantity determination — The ECU will
adjust the amount of fuel delivered during start-up
based on initial ECT readings.
• Idle speed determination — In order to speed engine
warm-up, the ECU will increase idle speed after start-up
if a low coolant temperature is measured.

The system’s pressure sensors are 3 wire variable
resistors. As the pressure changes, sensor resistance
changes. The ECU sends a 5 volt reference voltage to the

preprogrammed values in the ECU’s memory to determine
pressure. In addition to pressure sensors, some
applications use pressure switches. Pressure switches

Measuring Throttle Position
The 4.5L & 6.8L engines have the option of operating with
an analog throttle position sensor output signal, multi-state
throttle, or a CAN throttle. On some applications, multiple
throttles are used.

RG40854,0000031 –19–05DEC01–1/7
Analog Throttle
An analog throttle uses a variable resistor (potentiometer)
sensor to measure the position of the throttle. The ECU
sends a 5 volt reference voltage to the sensor, monitors
the voltage drop across the resistor, and compares the
voltage drop to preprogrammed values in the ECU’s
memory. The analog throttle input voltage normally varies
between 1.0 volts and 4.0 depending on throttle position.
Analog throttle voltage at low idle is approximately 1.0
volts and 4.0 volts at high idle. The ECU has the ability to
learn different voltages for low and high idle, so the
voltages above may change depending on application.

Multi-state Throttle
The multi-state throttle is used when a few fixed engine
speeds are desired. There are three types of multi-state
throttles; Dual-state, Tri-state, and Ramp. All of these
throttles are wired exactly the same. The only difference is
the actual switch that is used to control the engine speed.
For information on each of these throttles, see DUAL
STATE THROTTLE, TRI-STATE THROTTLE, or RAMP
THROTTLE later in this Measuring Throttle Position
section.

Dual State Throttle
The dual state throttle is used on applications that use a
few fixed engine speeds. There are two available
positions, Low Idle and High Idle. The switch uses two
different resistors to change the voltage returned to the
ECU. The ECU uses an internal conversion table to
convert the voltage to a specific engine speed. When the
switch is in the low idle position, the current is routed
through a 390 ohm resistor. High idle position uses a
1300 ohm resistor. These speeds can be adjusted and
saved depending on the needs of the application.

Tri-State Throttle
The tri-state throttle works very similar to the dual state
throttle. This throttle uses a three position switch, Low
Idle, Adjustable High Idle, and Non-Adjustable High Idle.
The switch uses three different resistors to change the
voltage returned to the ECU. The ECU uses an internal
conversion table to convert the voltage to a specific
engine speed. When the switch is in the low idle position,
the current is routed through a 390 ohm resistor,
03
adjustable high idle position uses a 1300 ohm resistor,
140
and non-adjustable high idle position uses a 3000 ohm
10
resistor. These adjustable speeds can be saved
depending on the needs of the application. The
non-adjustable high idle is set at the factory to the
engine’s high idle speed and can not be changed. This
position will always set the engine speed to the factory
high idle value. The other two positions are adjustable and
work exactly like the dual state throttle.
Tri-State Throttle
RG12285 –19–26APR02
Ramp Throttle
The ramp throttle allows the operator slowly increase or
decrease the engine speed through a three position
momentary (spring back to center position) switch. If the
switch is held in the upward position, the engine speed
will increase in small increments. If the switch is held in
the downward position, the engine speed will decrease.
Once the desired speed is selected, release the switch
into the center position. The switch uses three different
resistors to change the voltage returned to the ECU.
When the switch is in the desired position (center), the
current is routed through a 1300 ohm resistor. When
changing engine speed, a 390 ohm resistor to reduce the
engine speed and a 3000 ohm resistor to ramp up the
engine speed. Speed will remain the same until key cycle
or operator change.

Crank Position Sensor
The crank position sensor operates by detecting notches
on their respective timing wheels. When a notch on the
timing wheel is directly under the sensor, a voltage signal
is induced. The ECU monitors this voltage signal to
determine the position of the timing wheel. The sensor is
located on the front of the crankshaft, behind the
pressed-on crank gear.
The crank position sensor (A) is located on the front of the
crankshaft. It is an inductive type pickup sensor that
detects teeth on the crank timing wheel. The ECU uses
the crank position input to determine engine speed.
