7. Shut the calibrator off (the calibrator will stop in less
time at full-fuel).
8. Observe the vial reading and refer to Fig. 19 to
determine whether the injector fuel output falls within the
specified limits. If the quantity of fuel in the vial does
not fall within the specified limits, refer to Trouble
the cause and remedy.
NOTE:
Refer to Page 10-3-59 for different
factors that may affect the injector
calibrator output reading.
The calibrator may be used to check and select a set of
injectors which will inject the same amount of fuel in
each cylinder at a given throttle setting, thus resulting in
a smooth running, well balanced engine.
An injector which passes all of the above tests may be
put back into service. However, an injector which fails
to pass one or more of the tests must be rebuilt and
checked on the calibrator.
Any injector which is disassembled and rebuilt must be
