Inspection of Gear Case Cover EGR Model
Inspect the gear case cover as follows:
- Clean all of the old gasket sealer from the mating surfaces of the gear case and gear case cover. Refer to “Cleaning” in the GENERAL INFORMATION "General Information" Section.
- Clean the gasket sealer from the mating surfaces of any components or access covers that were removed from the gear case cover, and the gear case cover itself.
EYE INJURY
To avoid injury from flying debris when using compressed air, wear adequate eye protection (face shield or safety goggles) and do not exceed 276 kPa (40 psi) air pressure.
- Clean all of the removed parts, except the electrical components, with clean fuel oil and dry with compressed air.
Note: Any time the gear case cover is removed, the crankcase oil seal must be replaced. Install the new front oil seal after the gear case cover has been installed to the engine.
- If necessary, remove the crankshaft front oil seal at this time. Refer to "1.8.2 Removal of Front or Rear Crankshaft Oil Seal (Gear Case Cover or Flywheel Housing Removed)" . Inspect the gear case cover for stress cracks or breaks in the casting. Repair or replace as necessary.
- Inspect all O-rings for signs of dryness or splitting. Replace as necessary.
