Figure 1. N2 Electronic Unit Injector Cross-section
The amount of fuel injected and the beginning of injection timing is determined by the ECM. The ECM sends a command pulse which activates the injector solenoid. The EUI performs four functions:- Creates the high-fuel pressure required for efficient injection.
- Meters and injects the exact amount of fuel required to handle the load.
- Atomizes the fuel for mixing with the air in the combustion chamber.
- Permits continuous fuel flow for component cooling.
Engine combustion is obtained by injecting, under pressure, a small quantity of accurately metered and finely atomized fuel oil into the cylinder. Metering and timing of the fuel is accomplished by the ECM which actuates the solenoid poppet valve to stop the free flow of fuel through the injector. When the solenoid poppet valve closes, fuel is trapped in the injector body and under the plunger. The continuous fuel flow through the injector prevents air pockets in the fuel system and cools those injector parts subjected to high combustion temperatures.
Note: Do not test new or reliabilt® remanufactured electronic unit injectors prior to installation in the engine. The Kent-Moore® POP stand should only be used as a diagnostic tool on fuel injectors that have been removed from an engine.
Fuel enters the injector through the two fuel inlet filter screens located around the injector body. See Figure 'Fuel Injector Body' . Filter screens are used at the fuel inlet openings to prevent relatively coarse foreign material from entering the injector.
Figure 2. Fuel Injector Body
Note: Effective with September, 1988 production, Series 60 engine EUI nuts incorporate one upper seal ring groove and seal ring, instead of two. See Figure 'N2 Electronic Unit Injector' .
Outlet openings, through which the excess fuel oil returns to the fuel return manifold and then back to the fuel tank, are located around the injector nut. See Figure 'N2 Electronic Unit Injector' .
Figure 3. N2 Electronic Unit Injector
After entering the nut cavity, the fuel passes through a drilled passage into the poppet control valve and plunger area. See Figure 'N2 Electronic Unit Injector Cross-section' .
The plunger operates up and down in the body bore of the injector. The motion of the injector rocker arm is transmitted to the plunger and follower that bears against the follower spring.
As the piston moves approximately two-thirds of the way up in the cylinder on the compression stroke, the injector cam lobe begins to lift causing the injector rocker arm to push down on the follower and the plunger. Just before injection begins, the ECM sends an electronic pulse which turns on the injector solenoid. The energized solenoid creates a magnetic force which pulls the armature up, closing the poppet valve and trapping fuel under the plunger and passages leading down to the needle valve. The fuel pressure increases as the plunger continues its downward stroke.
A flat disk check valve is built into the injector fuel passages between the plunger and the tip. This check valve normally has no effect on the injection process but will function to prevent cylinder gases from blowing back into the injector and fuel system if a particle of debris should become lodged between the needle and seat or the tip assembly fails.
This fuel pressure acts on the needle valve. When it creates a force high enough to overcome the valve spring force holding the needle on its seat, the needle valve moves up, allowing the high pressure fuel to spray into the combustion chamber. The high pressure of the fuel passing through the small holes in the tip creates a finely atomized spray for combustion within the cylinder.
After the pulse width time has passed, the ECM turns off the current to the injector solenoid. The de-energized solenoid allows a spring to open the poppet valve, permitting the trapped fuel to spill down, dropping the pressure within the injector. When the pressure is low enough the needle valve closes and ends injection.
The beginning of injection and metering of the fuel in relation to the crankshaft position are controlled by the ECM. Injection begins soon after the poppet valve is closed. The valve closing point information, known as the response time feedback, is returned to the ECM. This information is used to monitor and adjust injection timing, thus removing injector-to-injector variation influences on timing. The amount of fuel injected depends on the pulse width stored in the calibration which determines how long the poppet valve remains closed; the larger the pulse width the longer the valve is closed and the more fuel is injected.
When the injector rocker arm has completed its downward travel the injector follower spring returns it to the starting position. As the plunger moves up fuel enters the injector pumping cavity for another injection cycle. The constant circulation of fuel through the injector renews the fuel supply in the chamber and aids the cooling of the injector.

Repair or Replacement of N2 Electronic Unit Injector
To determine if repair is possible or replacement is necessary perform the following procedure. See Figure 'Flowchart for Repair or Replacement of N2 Electronic Unit Injector' .
Figure 4. Flowchart for Repair or Replacement of N2 Electronic Unit Injector
Section 2.3.2
Removal of N2 Electronic Unit Injector
The following steps must be performed prior to removing an injector:
Note: The solenoid can be replaced without removing the injector. Refer to '2.3.4 Repair of N2 Electronic Unit Injector Solenoid and Seals' .
- Clean the valve rocker cover around its seat on the head, and in the attaching bolt recesses.
- To remove the one-piece rocker cover, refer to '1.6.2 Removal and Cleaning of One-piece Rocker Cover For Diesel Engines Only' .
- To remove the two-piecerocker cover, refer to '1.6.3 Removal and Cleaning of Two-piece Rocker Cover For Diesel Engines Only' .
- To remove the three-piece rocker cover, refer to '1.6.5 Removal and Cleaning of Three-piece Rocker Cover' .
EYE INJURYTo 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.NOTICE:
All the fuel must be removed from the cylinder head before removing an injector to prevent the fuel from entering the cylinder and causing hydrostatic lock or washdown. If the head is not thoroughly purged of fuel before an injector is removed, fuel remaining in the fuel manifold will drain into the cylinder filling the piston dome recess. It cannot drain from the dome and, if not removed, can cause hydrostatic lock and bend the connecting rod. - Drain the cylinder head fuel gallery by removing the inlet and outlet lines from the fittings at the rear of the cylinder head. Blow low pressure compressed air into the inlet fitting for 20 to 30 seconds or until all of the fuel is purged from the cylinder head. See Figure 'Cylinder Head Fuel Fitting Locations' .Note: Front and rear rocker shaft assemblies look identical but are not interchangeable because of different bolt hole center distances. The outboard end of each rocker shaft assembly is marked with the DDC logo for identification. Care should be taken to identify and return assemblies to the proper location if both overhead assemblies are removed.Note: Loosening the fuel line at the inlet fitting will allow fuel to flow faster. Carefully collect the drained fuel in an appropriate container.Figure 5. Cylinder Head Fuel Fitting Locations
- Remove the two rocker shaft through-bolts and one nut for each rocker shaft assembly, and lift the rocker shaft assembly off the engine. Refer to '1.3.2 Removal of Rocker Arm Assembly' .
To remove the injector, complete the following steps:
NOTICE: |
Do not remove the screws from the injector. The wire terminals have keyhole slots to fit over the screw head. Turning the screws too far will damage the threads in the injector solenoid housing. |
- Loosen the injector wire terminal screws two full turns and remove the terminal wires.
- Remove injector hold down clamp.
NOTICE:
Extreme care should be used when handling an EUI to avoid costly damage by dropping or otherwise mishandling the EUI.Note: When replacing an EUI, always replace the injector O-rings. - Lift the injector from its seat in the cylinder head by inserting a pry bar under the injector body. See Figure 'Removing N2 Electronic Unit Injector' .Figure 6. Removing N2 Electronic Unit Injector
NOTICE:
Avoid wire brushing the spray holes to prevent damage. - Cover the injector hole in the cylinder head to keep out foreign material. Remove carbon from the injector exterior in the area where the tip joins the nut, using wire buffing wheel (J–7944) .

- Clean the exterior of the injector with clean solvent and dry it with compressed air.Note: Do not test new or reliabilt® remanufactured electronic unit injectors prior to installation in the engine. The Kent-Moore® POP stand should only be used as a diagnostic tool on fuel injectors that have been removed from an engine.
- Test the EUI using J–34760–A . Follow procedures supplied with this tool. Reuse or replace injector or injector and solenoid as indicated by testing.
- Inspect the O-rings for damage or foreign material. Replace O-rings.
- Inspect the fuel injector tubes at the injector seat. If required, replace the fuel injector tubes.
Section 2.3.4
Repair of N2 Electronic Unit Injector Solenoid and Seals
Perform the following steps for solenoid replacement:
- Loosen the injector wire terminal screws two turns and remove terminal wires.
- Loosen four hex-head screws and remove old solenoid. See Figure 'Electronic Unit Injector Solenoid Assembly' .1. Spacer Seals4. Screw2. Solenoid5. Follower Retainer3. Load Plate6. SpacerFigure 7. Electronic Unit Injector Solenoid Assembly
- Perform the appropriate step for the DDEC unit used.
- For DDEC I and DDEC II, discard the solenoid, load plate, follower retainer, and screws. Do not reuse old screws.
- For DDEC III/IV, discard the solenoid, follower retainer, and screws. Do not reuse old screws. The load plate must be reused.
NOTICE:
The spacer is a matched component with the armature and must remain with its respective injector. - Remove spacer and seals from injector body.
- Discard seals, but do not discard spacer.
- Install new seal in spacer groove and position spacer on body with seal facing down. See Figure 'Electronic Unit Injector Solenoid Assembly' . Seal may be retained in groove with small quantity of grease.

Section 2.3.5
Installation of the N2 Electronic Unit Injector
Perform the following steps:
- If the fuel system is contaminated with coolant:
- Drain the fuel tanks and refill with clean fuel. Refer to '14.6.2 Fuel Tanks' .
- Replace both filters with new, and clean the fuel/water separator, if equipped. Refer to '14.6.13 Fuel Filters (Diesel)' .
- Inspect fuel injectors for damage and replace as required.
- If the coolant system is contaminated with fuel, flush and reverse flush the system. Refer to '14.6.4 Cooling System' .EYE INJURYTo 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.
NOTICE:
Leftover fuel must be removed from the injector bore before injector installation. If fuel is trapped between the top of the injector hole tube and the lower injector O-ring seal, it may seep down to the injector hole tube seal ring, causing swelling and possible seal leakage. - Using clean compressed air, blow out any fuel remaining in the injector bore.Note: If the engine is equipped with an auxiliary injector tube seal, replace it with a new seal when the injector is removed.
NOTICE:
Do not use a metal dowel as this may damage the seal.NOTICE:
Injector seals are considered one-use items and cannot be reused. Any time an injector is removed, all three injector nut O-ring seals must be replaced with new seals. Failure to replace seals can result in seal leakage. - Detroit Diesel encourages the use of an additional service seal (5104701) that is impervious to both coolant and fuel. This seal should be used in situations where injector tube seal leakage or deterioration is suspected or confirmed. Place the auxiliary seal in the injector hole and seat it against the top of the injector tube with a 41.3 mm (1-5/8 in.) diameter wood or plastic dowel.
- Check to make sure the injector bore is thoroughly clean.
- Apply a thin coat of clean ethylene glycol to the injector seal rings and install them in the injector nut ring grooves. Make sure seals are properly seated.
- Insert the injector into its respective injector tube bore. Visually align the injector body for equal clearance between valve springs (there is no locating dowel pin on the underside of the EUI). After locating the injector, press down on the top of the injector body with the heel of your hand to seat it in the injector tube.Note: The injector tube bore should be cleaned and inspected for damage before installation of the electronic unit injector. Refer to '2.4.4 Cleaning of N2 Injector Tube' .

Camshaft and Camshaft Bearing
Detroit Diesel Series 60 Jake Brake Torque Specs 2010 Sonata
The Series 60 camshaft is located on top of the cylinder head, just below the valve cover. The camshaft actuates the intake and exhaust valves and injector operating mechanism. See Figure 'Camshaft and Related Parts' .
Figure 1. Camshaft and Related Parts
Note: The Series 60G camshaft has no injector lobe on the cam.
The camshaft is supported by seven bearing assemblies, consisting of precision-type, replaceable bearing shell inserts that are split at their center lines. Current non-tin-plated production bearing shells are identified by their shiny aluminum color. Current tin-plated service bearing shells have a dull gray sheen. The lower bearing shell is positioned in a saddle that is integral with the cylinder head. The upper bearing shell is held in place by a machined camshaft cap. Upper and lower bearing shells are identical and have locating tangs and oil holes. Only the upper bearing shell oil holes index with oil supply holes in the camshaft caps. See Figure 'Camshaft and Related Parts' . These camshaft caps are precision line-bored after assembly to the cylinder head. Caps are NOT interchangeable once the head is finished. Caps are numbered and must NOT be interchanged with other caps of the same part number from stock or from a different cylinder head.

A cover is provided at the rear end of the camshaft and is secured to the No. 7 camshaft bearing cap and the cylinder head by three bolts.See Figure 'Rear Camshaft Access Cover' .
Figure 8. Rear Camshaft Access Cover
Vertical oil passages at the front and rear of the cylinder head deliver oil from the cylinder block front and rear oil galleries to the No. 1 and 7 lower camshaft bearing saddles. From there, the oil is directed up ward ( through the enlarged stud hole) to the No. 1 and 7 upper bearing caps. A drilled passage in each of these caps exits at the rocker arm shaft seat area, where it indexes with a hole in each rocker arm shaft. The rocker arm shafts have internal oil passages that deliver oil to the rocker arm bushings and intermediate upper camshaft bearings. Some of the oil supplied to the rocker arm bushing passes through the oil hole in the bushing to the rocker arm. The rocker is drilled to supply oil to the camshaft follower, roller pin, and bushing. The rocker is also drilled to supply oil to the valve adjusting screw, valve button, retainer clip, intake, and exhaust valve stems and the fuel injector follower. The No. 4 camshaft cap is “Y” drilled, forming an oil path connection between the front and rear rocker arm shafts, to ensure complete lubrication. See Figure 'Cylinder Head Lubrication Schematic' .

Inspection of Camshaft and Camshaft Bearing
60 Series Detroit Engine Specs
Inspect camshaft and camshaft bearings as follows:
- Clean all of the removed parts in clean fuel oil.
- Ensure all oil passages are clear.EYE INJURYTo 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.
- Dry with compressed air.
- Inspect the rocker arm components for scoring. Refer to '1.3.2.2 Inspection of Rocker Arm Assemblies and Camshaft Lobes' .
- Replace damaged rocker arm components.
- Inspect the camshaft lobes and journals for scoring, pitting, or flat spots.Note: Camshafts may exhibit surface pits on the exhaust lobes. See Figure 'Camshafts Acceptable for Reuse' . Extensive durability and field testing has shown that surface pits on the exhaust lobes can occur early in the operation of the engine. These blemishes do not adversely affect engine performance or the durability of the camshaft and followers. Camshafts with this condition may be reused.Figure 16. Camshafts Acceptable for ReuseNote: Camshafts exhibiting extensive wear and pitting must be replaced. See Figure 'Camshafts Not Acceptable for Reuse' .Figure 17. Camshafts Not Acceptable for Reuse
- If the camshaft is scored, inspect the camshaft follower rollers.
- Replace damaged camshaft followers.
- If there is a doubt as to the acceptability of the camshaft for further service, determine the extent of camshaft lobe wear as follows:Note: The camshaft can be in or out of the engine during this procedure.
- Using a feeler gage, 0.038-0.254 mm (0.0015 -0.010 in.) and a piece of square, hard material 3 x 10 x 25 mm (1/8 in. x 3/8 in. x 1 in.), measure the flat on the injector rise side of the camshaft lobes and nose of valve lobes. See Figure 'Checking Camshaft Lobe Wear' .
- If the flats measure greater than 0.076 mm (0.003 in.) in depth and there are no other camshaft defects, replace the camshaft.
- Inspect the camshaft bearings for signs of excessive wear, scoring or pitting.
- Replace camshaft bearings as necessary.
- Check the camshaft bearing clearance using plastic gaging material under each upper shell.
- Allowable clearance is 0.09 - 0.166 mm (0.0035 -0.0065 in.) or a maximum of 0.191 mm (0.0075 in.) with used parts.
- Replace excessively worn or scored parts.
- After completing the camshaft bearing clearance measurements, remove the rocker arm shafts, bearing caps, camshaft, and camshaft bearings. Keep the caps and shells together for possible reuse.
- Clean all of the plastic gaging material from the bearing shells and camshaft journals if used parts are to be reused.
- Remove all of the Gasket Eliminator from both the cylinder head and camshaft caps. Refer to 'Cleaning' in the 'General Information' section at the beginning of this manual.
- Coat the No. 1 and 7 bearing shell inserts with clean engine oil and install them to their respective locations in the cylinder head and camshaft caps.

Section 1.28.4
Assembly of Camshaft and Camshaft Bearing
Refer to '1.29.3 Installation of Camshaft Drive Gear' for assembly of camshaft drive gear, camshaft hub and thrust plate assembly.
Section 1.28.5
Installation of Camshaft and Camshaft Bearing
Install the camshaft and camshaft bearings as follows:
- Coat the lower camshaft bearing shells with clean engine lubricating oil, and install them to their original positions. Note the position of oil holes and locating tangs.Note: If new bearings are to be installed, the upper and lower shells MUST be replaced as a set.EYE INJURYTo 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.
- When installing a new camshaft, steam clean it to remove the rust preventive and blow dry with compressed air.
- Before installing the camshaft dowel into the camshaft hub, ensure that the dimple in the thrust plate is located at the 12 o'clock position to properly position bolt holes to cam cap and cylinder head. See Figure 'Indexing Camshaft Dowel' .Figure 20. Indexing Camshaft Dowel
- Coat the lobes and journals of the camshaft with clean engine lubricating oil. Index the dowel pin in the camshaft with the dowel hole in the camshaft hub.
- Lower the camshaft into position and slide the camshaft forward, making certain that the camshaft dowel indexes with its mating hole in the camshaft thrust plate hub.
- Install the upper bearing shells to the No. 1, 4 and 7 camshaft caps, noting the position of the oil holes and locating tangs.
NOTICE:
Do not apply oil to the number 1 or number 7 camshaft bearing shells. These shells must be clean and dry for proper sealant application. Applying oil to the number 1 or number 7 shells may result in oil leakage from the camshaft bearing caps. NOTE: The camshaft will still have adequate clearance from the number 1 and number 7 shells due to the oil film thickness on bearings 2 through 6. - Coat the number 2 through number 6 bearing shells with clean engine lubricating oil.
- For engines built after May 1999, a race track seal is used on the Number 1 bearing cap. For bearing cap Number 7, use one rubber O-ring in the counterbore in the cylinder head. Before assembling the camshaft cap to the cylinder head, ensure the O-ring is in place on the cylinder head.
- For engines built prior to May 1999, install the two rubber O-rings to the counterbores in the cylinder head at the Number 1 and 7 camshaft cap locations. Before assembling the camshaft caps to the cylinder head, ensure the two O-rings are in place on the cylinder head.
NOTICE:
For proper adhesion, assemble parts while RTV is wet. So not allow RTV to form a skin. Gasket Eliminator must be kept from the bearing shell sets and bearing surfaces. Gasket Eliminator cures with the absence of air. The length of time between installation of the Number 1 and 7 camshaft caps, and torquing the camshaft cap bolts and nuts should be kept to a minimum or improper lubrication will result causing engine damage. - Clean and dry the camshaft bearing cap joint face surfaces as well as the portions of the cylinder head face that mate with. These areas must be clean and dry for proper sealant adhesion. Use LPS®, Permatex®, or an equivalent non-filming degreaser.
- Apply a continuous 1.6 mm (1/16 in.) bead of DDC gasket eliminator part number 23523064, or equivalent, to the joint face surfaces of the No. 1 and 7 camshaft caps. The bead must extend to the front edge of both caps. See Figure 'Gasket Eliminator Application' .Figure 21. Gasket Eliminator Application
- Install the No. 1, 4 and 7 camshaft caps, with bearing shells in place, to their respective locations.
- Install and tighten the two inboard studs and outboard bolts on bearing caps No. 1 and 7 using socket tool (J–44706) , torque to 126–146 N·m (93–108 lb·ft).
- Install the No. 4 bearing cap outboard bolt and torque it to 126-146 N·m (93-108 lb·ft).
- Remove the three bolts holding the camshaft gear pilot tool(J–35906) to the gear case. Remove the camshaft gear pilot.
- Working through the camshaft drive gear access hole in the front of the gear case, tap the center of the camshaft drive gear with a fiber mallet or plastic hammer to move the camshaft thrust plate, hub and camshaft drive gear rearward in the gear case until the camshaft thrust plate bolts can be started in the cylinder head and No. 1 camshaft cap.
NOTICE:
Use care to ensure that the camshaft dowel is not disengaged during this step or damage to engine may result.NOTICE:
Use care to prevent dropping thrust plate mounting bolts into the gear case. If not removed, fasteners dropped into the gear case may cause severe engine damage during start-up. - Install the thrust plate mounting bolts through the thrust plate and into the cylinder head and No. 1 camshaft cap. Using a 13 mm socket and ratchet, tighten the bolts alternately and progressively to draw the thrust plate straight into the gear case. Torque the bolts to 30-38 N·m (22-28 lb·ft).
- Coat the threads and underside of the head of the camshaft drive gear-to-camshaft bolt with International Compound #2 (or equivalent). Install the bolt to the camshaft, finger-tighten.Note: The camshaft should be held in place while starting the camshaft drive gear-to-camshaft bolt, to prevent disengaging the camshaft dowel from the thrust plate hub and requiring disassembly and timing of camshaft.
NOTICE:
Only retaining tool (J–35652–B) should be used to hold the camshaft drive gear stationary while loosening or tightening the camshaft drive gear-to-camshaft bolt to prevent component damage. - Insert retaining tool (J–35652–B) through a lightening hole of the camshaft drive gear.
- Bar the engine over slightly to position the camshaft drive gear holding tool so that the bolt holes in the holding tool align with the access cover bolt holes in the gear case cover using the 3/4 in. square hole in the center of the crankshaft pulley to bar the engine over.
- Install two of the access cover bolts to secure the tool to the gear case.
- Torque bolt to 75 N·m (55 lb·ft).
- Turn bolt an additional 120 degrees. See Figure 'Torque Turn Limits' .Figure 22. Torque Turn Limits
- Remove the camshaft drive gear torque retaining tool (J–35652–B) .
- Adjust the camshaft drive gear-to-adjustable idler gear lash. Refer to '1.24.2.1 Check Engine Timing' .Note: Correct camshaft drive gear lash adjustment depends on the bolt and stud for No. 1 and 7 camshaft caps, the outboard bolt on No. 4 camshaft cap, and the camshaft drive gear-to-camshaft retaining bolt being tightened to the specified torque. However, the valve and injector spring pressures will not allow correct camshaft rotation. Therefore, do NOT install the rocker arm shaft assemblies before the camshaft gear lash has been measured and adjusted.
