Run-up test

Deviations in the power capability of individual cylinders are identified by the run-up test. For this,
cylinders are shut off sequentially when the engine is running. The engine is accelerated from low-
idle for a number of segments with fixed amount of fuel.

After performing the test operator get the test result for each injector which actually shows the
acceleration of the engine (rpm/s) when injectors are shutdown. When good injector is disconnected
then the acceleration of the engine is slow and when poor injector is disconnected then the
acceleration is fast.

The main idea is to compare injectors (test results) to each other to clarify which injector is good
and which is poor. Operator can do this so that he check which is the lowest value (best injector)
and then add 15 % to it (for instance 1273 rpm/s x 1,15 = 1464 rpm/s). That 15 % is the maximum
difference which is allowed by Sisu. So all values (injectors) which exceed this “window” are
somehow faulty ones and should be replaced. Of course for instance bad compression in the
cylinder will affect to these results as well.

Compression test
Compression test determines the deviations in the compression for the individual cylinders with the
engine being driven by cranking without enabling the fuel metering. During the test ECU needs
information from cam speed sensor as well as from crank speed sensor. From cam speed sensor
ECU get information that which cylinder is under test and from crank speed sensor ECU get
information that what’s the running speed of that specific cylinder.

After performing the test operator get the test results for each cylinder and he can analyze the
results same way like described above. Also 15 % is the max. allowed difference between cylinders.
If some cylinder goes over that limit then first thing would be to check the valve clearance.

High pressure test
High pressure test checks the performance of common rail high-pressure pump. During the first test
the pressure is increased up to maximum level, built-up time is measured. During the second test,
the delivery is stopped and pressure drop time is measured. There’s four different engine running
speeds during the test. It’s important that high pressure pump is capable to increase the pressure fast
enough but it needs to decrease the pressure fast enough as well. Red arrow in the screen shows the
max. allowed times for pressure build up and pressure drop.

Cylinder cut out test
Cylinder cut out test provides for the tester the capability to exclude one specific cylinder from
firing while the engine is running, to determine a misfiring cylinder. Cylinder cut out might be
necessary if no electrical fault is detectable, but the engine does not perform as expected on one
cylinder, e.g. due to nozzle hydraulic malfunctions.

The main idea of this test is just to listen how the engine running noise change when injectors are
disconnected one by one. When good injectors are disconnected then there should be more or less
equal difference in the running noise. But when poor injector is disconnected then there should be
only minor or no difference at all.
