ME fuel oil pump overhaul

Shut fuel oil inlet valve, open drain valve and remove oil.Dismount high pressure pipe and puncture valve suction valve assembly. Measure fuel pump lead or pmax value can be adjusted by adding shims. Fuel pump lead or pmax can be adjusted by adjusting the relative position of cam with camshaft. this can be done by attaching hydraulic pumps in
camshaft and turning cam with special tool by mounting lead measuring tool on the top of plunger. Advance cam to increase pmax. The top cover and plunger barrel assembly removed together by loosening top cover bolts and attaching the dismounting tool. Plunger barrel is separated from the top cover by keeping it in a vice.

Why atomisation test should not be done in slide type fuel valves

Since very small needle lift is obtained in the test equipment result in an unequal pressure distribution in the cut off shaft resulting in a hard contact in a small area along with high frequency oscillations, low lubricity of test oil will increase the chance of seizure. Full lift and high lubricity of heavy oil eliminates this risk  of seizure during normal operation.( Always open and clean slide type valves before testing as cold sticky heavy oil along with small clearances can cause restriction in the movement of the spindle).
