This is the second video on this gen set project. It's long one so get comfortable! We take a close look at the CAV / Lucas DPA Injection pump. Take it apart, clean it and reassemble.

You are a true craftsman. I've been here on this project from the beginning. It never ceases to amaze me how well the engineering accomplishes precision, with an analogue method. In the days before the chip, similar results were obtained mechanically. It takes a good deal of knowledge to know what to do on these systems. I really enjoy some of these older types of machines. Love watching them taken apart. Well done, sir.

That takes me back a long way. We had a "diesel room" where we had an engineer who worked on these, amongst others, and it was as spotless as a hospital surgical unit. Everything was flushed repeatedly with calibration fluid as the pumps were rebuilt, and much of the rebuild was carried out with the parts submerged in a fluid bath. There is a guy from Australia who has rebuilt a few of these, I'm not sure but I think his channel might be called "Aussie Workshop". In any case, he manages to rebuild these pumps with no special tools, and no special facilities - He buys his rebuild kits from "Sparex". Properly looked after, and with good clean fuel, these pumps can give decades of trouble free operation, and just looking around our yard at what I can seen - There are four tractors and one generator engine which use these DPA pumps, six if you count the small Perkins 4-108 with the hydraulically governed pump. The oldest of these is a David Brown 780 tractor from 1968, but they are all still going strong on original parts.

This man has very high caliber. His video is of a very high standard, the way he positions the camera is perfect and he moves it when required also he gives extra lighting for his viewer to enable them to fully see what he is doing. Added to this he gives a first-class explanation without any waffle and articulates the information in a very clear way, his tone of voice is easy to listen to and he gives extended pauses between sentences which cleverly keeps the viewer interested. In his first video, I thought he was overfussy with the engine but when you're inside a pump fussy=good. I'm very impressed by his mindset he is doing a top job well done to him.

CAV injection pumps have poor response. The pump should have new weights and a new metering valve to improve the response time. The spring location you suggested in the bottom hole is correct. I always set gen-set pumps up in this location. The rpms will have to be reset. If you list the set code on the pump the numbers will list the factory position. Like 51E850/9/1890.... 9 would be in the bottom hole. So pull the cover back off and put it in the bottom hole. I would put the pump in the vise and run fuel to it and spin it over till all six were pumping and make sure the shut off is working before install. Normally the damper takes a small check ball in the side. Did you over look that?
@timgould51042 жыл бұрын
The pump is 3262F888 this should have governor spring 7123-898J. The free length from inside of loops is 42.175mm. The pump was built in Rochester Kent UK. Production moved to Gillingham Kent where I still work in 1983-1985. Now BorgWarner after several takeovers and mergers.

This Perkins engine was very common in Australia on tractors etc. The rotary pump has one unique issue, they do NOT like water getting into the diesel fuel. Make sure you have a good water separator filter on the fuel line. Otherwise the 354 Perkins is an incredibly good engine.........was in production for a long time, and had many iterations as it evolved.

The little plug in the end of the advance piston cap is where the advance guage tool fits into when the pump is on the test bench. Did you put the little steel ball back into the side of the damper stud before you screwed it in. The little light spring in the bottom of the regular bore is to allow fuel to bypass the vane pump when you are priming the system with the hand lift pump.

Hello Mike. That was a very interesting video. That is a high precision piece of equipment. I've never laid hands on one, I'm a strictly points and condenser type of guy. I was surprised you were using metric sockets, Most British stuff from that era would have been SAE. The one bolt I could focus in on had GKN S on the head. GKN is a British company that made nuts and Bolts back in the day, and S denotes the tensile strength of the bolt. That one at least is SAE and I would imagine all the others are too. I look forward to the next instalment. Next time you see Roadking, tell him Mart says Hi. Nuffa Dis! Mart in England.
