Air Bleeding the Fuel System After
Starting Failure
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, there may be air in the fuel
system. If air is in the fuel system, fuel
cannot reach the fuel injection pump.
Bleed the air out of the system. See
Priming Pump on page 29.
Starting at Low Temperatures
Comply with local environmental
requirements. Use engine heaters to avoid
starting problems and white smoke. Do not
use starting aids.
NEVER use an engine starting aid such as
ether. Engine damage will result.
To limit white smoke, run the engine at low
speed and under moderate load until the
engine reaches normal operating
temperature. A light load on a cold engine
provides better combustion and faster
engine warm-up than no load.
Avoid running the engine at idling speed
any longer than necessary.
Starting with Air Heater
(If Equipped)
1. Open the seacock (if equipped).
2. Open the fuel tank cock.
3. Put remote control handle in
NEUTRAL.
4. Turn the battery switch on (if
equipped)..

5. Turn key switch to GLOW
(Figure 2, (1)) for 15 seconds.
NEVER run the air heater (GLOW
position) for more than 20 seconds at a
time or engine damage will result.
6. Turn key switch to ON (Figure 2, (3)).
Ensure that the instrument panel
indicators light and the alarm sounds.
This shows that indicators and alarm
are working correctly.
Note: The coolant high temperature
alarm indicator does not come
on during start-up.
7. Turn key switch to START
(Figure 2, (4)). Release the key switch
when the engine has started. The
alarm should stop and the indicators
should go out.
NEVER hold the key in the START
position for longer than 15 seconds or
the starter motor will overheat.
