In 1989, Dongfeng Company officially put on a market of 8 tons (14 tons total weight) heavy-duty trucks equipped with 6BT diesel engines.
In 1991, the factory producing B series diesel engine was completed and put into production.
In 1995, the localization rate of 6BT engines reached over 97%.

DCEC Cummins B Series Diesel Engine Fuel System
1. Features: B series engine can be equipped with VE pump and inline pump according to user requirements.
 Using small aperture porous small injector (5 hole injector)
 Independent plunger and diaphragm oil pump - driven by camshaft
• Two-stage spin-on fuel filter with oil-water separator
 Determine the timing of the oil supply with cam lift or timing pin on the gear housing.

2. Composition: oil pump, fuel filter, oil water separator, low pressure oil pipe, high pressure oil pump, high pressure oil pipe, fuel injector, fuel oil return manifold, fuel return pipe.

Pump
The oil pump is available in diaphragm type and plunger type. The diaphragm type oil pump is used for the VE type distribution pump, and the plunger type oil pump is used for the inline pump. The two cannot be replaced.

If it is a diaphragm type oil pump, the oil pressure is 13 kPa, so the resistance of the oil path cannot be greater than 13 kPa, otherwise the pump will not produce oil. The oil pressure of the plunger pump is: 138KPa.
Filter: It is a two-stage series with a filtration efficiency greater than 90%. The filtration accuracy is 25 microns.
The filter should be replaced regularly (100 million kilometers), otherwise the engine power will drop and the oil supply will be insufficient.
Drain the water in the oil-water separator every day.

Timing mark
The oil pump needs to be marked with timing when assembling. Different oil pumps may be different. The general steps are:
1. Confirm the engine one-cylinder compression top dead center TDC, there are many ways to determine.
2. Confirm the timing of the oil pump (via the timing pin on the oil pump)
3. Lock nut
Note: Some oil pumps are aligned with the mark on the oil pump gear and the camshaft gear, such as the VE pump. The inline pump is also marked by the timing.

Cooling system
Basic technical parameters and use requirements
Engine water jacket capacity: 6B: 10.5L; 4B: 7L
Cooling system capacity (without heater): 23L
Thermostat opening temperature 83°C, full open temperature: 95°C
Pump flow: 216L/min

Coolant requirements:
50% water + 50% ethylene glycol, ambient temperature: above -40°C)
40% water + 60% ethylene glycol, ambient temperature: below -40°C
Coolant boiling point: 110°C
Expansion tank pressure cover opening pressure: 44.1-53.9kpa

Lubrication system
Oil pump output oil at rated speed: 61.8L/min
Pressure regulator opening pressure: 495kpa
Engine oil pressure when working: low idle speed: 69kpa, rated speed: 207kpa
Oil sump capacity: 6 cylinders: 14.2L ~ 12.4L 4 cylinders: 9.5L ~ 8.5L
The oil pan oil level should not be lower than the lower mark of the oil gauge or higher than the upper limit mark.

Oil viscosity:
15W—40 ambient temperature: above -5°C
10W--30 level ambient temperature: -5°C - -20°C
5W-20 level ambient temperature: below -25°C
Engine oil grade: CH-4 or higher engine oil

Warm up after the first start every day, the engine idles for 5 minutes, and the engine idles for 5 minutes before stopping.
The oil pressure must be displayed within 15 seconds after starting.

Guides to Clean VOLVO Diesel Generator Cooling System

VOLVO Engine Cooling System Volvo engine's internal cooling system makes sure the engine works at the right temperature. It is a closed system that must always be filled with a mixture of concentrated coolant and water in order to protect the engine against internal corrosion, cavitation and bursting due to freezing. Coolant of a suitable chemical composition must be used all year round. This also applies in areas where there is never any risk of freezing, to provide the engine of  diesel generator set   with full corrosion protection. The use of anti-corrosion agents alone is not permitted in Volvo Penta engines. Never use water alone as a substitute for coolant. The corrosion protection additives become less effective over time, which means that the coolant must be changed at regular intervals; refer to Maintenance Schedule. The cooling system must be flushed whenever the coolant is changed; Volvo Penta coolants have been prepared to work best ...
