2.
Lack of power.
Step 1.
Check for improper engine adjustments, and gear train timing.
Perform adjustments in paragraphs 3-66, 3-79, 3-87 and 3-90, if performance is
not satisfactory.
Check the engine gear train timing. An improperly timed gear train will result in a
loss of power due to the valves and injectors being actuated at the wrong time in
the engine's operating cycle.
Refer to paragraph 3-90.
Step 2.
Check for insufficient fuel.
Perform a Fuel Flow Test and, if less than 0.8 gallons per minute with engine at
1200 RPM, consult the No Fuel or Insufficient Fuel Table 3-25.
