Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
This is CTM331, the Component Technical Manual for John Deere PowerTech 4.5L and 6.8L diesels built with the Level 12 electronic fuel system and the Stanadyne DE10 rotary pump. It covers the engine itself, not the tractor or machine wrapped around it. Inside you get engine identification and fuel/lube specs, full removal and installation procedures with assembly torques, theory of operation for the DE10 pump, injectors and engine control unit, diagnostic trouble code lists with step-by-step electronic fuel system tests, sensor and actuator checks, and the essential tools, clearances and pressure specs you need to do the job right. If your Level 12 engine cranks but will not run, this is the book that walks you through it.
