ENGINE DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS Section 4end of the cable to the threaded plug on the panel.Connect the transducer cord to the push-turn plug on thepanel.NOTE: Before proceeding with a running check, it isrecommended that an injection pump static (enginestopped) timing check be made.5.Start the engine and check for fuel leaks.6.Attain operating temperature.7.Perform the speed and timing checks as follows:(See OPERATION, this section).a.Turn power on by moving the "TACH-OFFT. LIGHT" to the "TACH" position. Redpower supply light will be on.b.Check calibrationas described inOPERATION, this section.c.Put "TACH. ADVANCE" switch to "TACH."position. Adjust engine speed to indicate700 RPM as shown in PERFORMANCEDATA GUIDELINES, Section 6.d.Put the "TACH-OFF T. LIGHT" switch tothe "T. LIGHT" position. Move the "TACH.ADVANCE" switch to the "ADVANCE"position. Rotate "ADVANCE" knob asdirected in OPERATION, this section, toobtain timing.e.Switch the "TACH-OFF T. LIGHT" and"TACH. ADVANCE" to the "TACH"positions. Adjust engine speed to specifiedtotal pump timing speed for the particularapplication (see PERFORMANCE DATAGUIDELINES, Section 6).f.Move the "TACH-OFF T. LIGHT" and"TACH ADVANCE" switch to "T-LIGHT"and "ADVANCE" respectively. Rotate"ADVANCE" knob as directed inOPERATION, this section, to obtaininjection pump timing (Degrees ofAdvance). Compare readings withspecifications.IMPORTANTIF THERE IS A QUESTION OF TIMINGLIGHT ACCURACY FLOW TIME THEPUMP AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 5.FLOW TIMING IS ACCOMPLISHEDWITH- OUT REMOVING THE PUMPDELIVERY VALVE.CREATIVE TOOL MODEL CT4000DIESEL TIMING AND TACHOMETERINSTRUMENT (SE-2783) OR (3005A)’CURRENT MODELDESCRIPTIONThe diesel timing and tachometer instrument (Figure 5)is a solid state electronic instrument used to dynamicallymeasure fuel injection pump timing and automaticadvance in degrees. This instrument also reads engineRPM from cranking to high idle speeds. The 14 mmSplit-Nut Transducer No. CT-4000-13 is used for 400Series On- Highway and OEM Engines.Figure 5.
