Rebuilding a Perkins 900 Series diesel? This 240-page Perkins 900 CP and CR shop manual PDF (factory publication TPD 1345) takes you from cylinder head and valve work through crankshaft, timing case, cylinder liners, and complete engine timing. You get full data and dimensions, standard and special torque tensions, compression test data, and step-by-step procedures for the Delphi fuel injection pumps, atomisers, and turbocharger. Turbocharger fault tables and alternator diagnosis are in here too, plus the special tools section: valve guide tools, timing pins, crankshaft seal drivers, piston height gauge. Set atomiser nozzle protrusion between 1.6 and 2.13 mm on KB-code injectors, and pull the fuel pump gear setscrews to 27 Nm (20 lbf ft). Guesswork wrecks liners. Bookmarked and keyword-searchable; download it, walk to the engine, and find your spec in seconds.
