FUEL SYSTEM • Fuel Tank - Visually inspect fuel tank system for leaks and fuel level. Test day tank pump for proper operation. Inspect fuel condition for contaminants (Color Kut). • Water Trap/Separator - Drain water from fuel tank or water separator when possible. • Fuel Lines and Connections - Inspect for leaks and tightness of connections. Check line brackets. • Governor and Controls - Inspect governor oil level. Inspect controls and linkage for proper operation. Add oil as necessary. • Fuel Filters (Primary/Secondary) - Inspect for damage, leaks and proper operation. • Fuel Pressure - Operational check of gauge and correct pressure. AIR INDUCTION AND EXHAUST SYSTEM • Air Filter Service Indicator - Note reading. Inspect for proper operation. Reset indicator. • Air Filter - Inspect. Clean as necessary. • Air Inlet System - Inspect piping and air filter housing for damage, loose connections, and evidence of leaks. Clean air filter housing if air filter is cleaned or replaced. Check housing seals and gaskets. • Turbocharger - Inspect for oil leakage or exhaust leakage. Check for unusual noises and proper operation. • Exhaust Manifold - Inspect for damage, loose or missing hardware, evidence of exhaust leakage. Inspect for oil slobbering. Load bank recommendation. • Exhaust System - Inspect silencer and piping for damage, corrosion, or leakage. Check rain cap. Check supports for vibration damage and loose connections. LUBE OIL SYSTEM • Oil Level - Inspect for correct oil level and contamination. Visually inspect unit for leaks. • Oil Pressure - Operational check of gauge for correct pressure. Operational and visual inspection of prelube pump. • Crankcase Breather - Inspect for proper operation. Check connections and inspect hose for deterioration. Note excessive blowby. • Scheduled Oil Sample - Obtain oil sample for analysis. STARTING SYSTEM • Batteries - Inspect for damage or leakage, clean battery acid neutralizer. Clean and tighten all battery cable connections. • Batteries (Specific Gravity) - Check electrolyte level and specific gravity. • Battery Charger - Inspect for proper operation, loose terminals, and deteriorated wiring. • Starting Motor - Inspect electrical connections and wiring. For air starters, inspect oil jar and feeder operation. Operational check for abnormal engagement and cranking noises. • Alternator - Inspect for proper operation, loose connections, and mounting hardware. Check belts, pulley and voltage output. ENGINE MONITORS AND SAFETY CONTROLS • Safety Controls - Check for: loose connections, and wiring deterioration. • Remote Annunciator and Alarms - Inspect all panel and system alarms. CONTROL PANEL • Start Controls-Manual/Auto - Operational check for proper operation. Check automatic start (if allowed). • Voltmeter - Operational check for correct readings. Check voltage level, voltage gain, and voltage drop adjustment. • Ammeter - Operational check for correct readings, if load is available. • Frequency Meter - Operational check for correct readings. Load and no load readings, if possible. MAINTENANCE FUEL SYSTEM • Fuel Filter - Replace. Inspect for proper sealing and operation. LUBE OIL SYSTEM • Oil and Filters - Change.
