Can Not Reach Top Engine RPM

SMCS - 1915-035

Note: If this problem occurs only under load, refer to Troubleshooting, "Low Power/Poor or No
Response to Throttle".

Probable Causes
Active engine derate
Cold mode
Throttle signal
Intake air pressure sensor (Boost)
Atmospheric pressure sensor
Fuel supply
Air inlet and exhaust system
Accessory equipment

Recommended Actions
Active Engine Derate

If this application supports engine derates, use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check for
logged derates. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Troubleshooting with an Event Code" for the specific
events that are applicable to this application. A status flag will appear on Cat ET if a derate is active.
The engine speed might be limited due to one of the following conditions: high altitude, dirty air
filters and other factors.

Cold Mode
Use Cat ET to verify that the engine has exited cold mode. A status flag will appear if the engine is
operating in cold mode. This may limit engine speed.

Throttle Signal
Monitor Cat ET in order to verify that full throttle can be achieved. Refer to Troubleshooting,
"Throttle Switch Circuit - Test".

Intake Air Pressure Sensor (Boost) or Atmospheric Pressure Sensor

1. Monitor the status of "Fuel Position", "Rated Fuel Limit", and "FRC Fuel Limit" on Cat ET
while the engine is operating under full load. These parameters should reflect the information
below.
Table 1
"Fuel Position" = "Rated Fuel Limit"
and
"Fuel Position" < "FRC Fuel Limit"
If "Fuel Position" equals "Rated Fuel Limit" and "Fuel Position" is less than "FRC Fuel Limit",
the electronics are operating correctly. Otherwise, proceed with the next Step.
2. Monitor the status of "Intake Air Pressure (Boost)" and "Atmospheric Pressure" for normal
operation on Cat ET. When the engine is not running, the correct "Intake Air Pressure (Boost)"
is 0 kPa (0 psi).
3. Verify that the intake air pressure sensor (Boost) is operating properly.

Fuel Supply
1. Check the fuel lines for the following problems: restrictions, collapsed lines and pinched lines.
If problems are found with the fuel lines, repair the lines and/or replace the lines.
2. Check the fuel tank for foreign objects which may block the fuel supply.
3. Prime the fuel system if any of the following procedures have been performed:
Replacement of the fuel filters

Service on the low pressure fuel supply circuit

Replacement of unit injectors
Note: A sight glass in the low pressure supply line is helpful in diagnosing air in the fuel. Refer
to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Air in Fuel - Test" for more information.

NOTICE
Do not crank the engine continuously for more than 30 seconds. Allow
the starting motor to cool for two minutes before cranking the engine
again.

4. Cold weather adversely affects the characteristics of the fuel. Refer to the Operation and
Maintenance Manual for information on improving the characteristics of the fuel during cold
weather operation.
5. Check the fuel pressure during engine cranking. Check the fuel pressure after the fuel filter.
Refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System" for the correct pressure
values. If the fuel pressure is low, replace the fuel filters. If the fuel pressure is still low, check
the following items: fuel transfer pump, fuel transfer pump coupling and fuel pressure
regulating valve.

Air Inlet and Exhaust System

1. Observe the check engine lamp. Check for an air filter restriction indicator. Clean plugged air
filters or replace plugged air filters. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
2. Check the air inlet and exhaust system for restrictions and/or leaks. Refer to Systems
Operation/Testing and Adjusting, "Air Inlet and Exhaust System".

Accessory Equipment
Check all accessory equipment for problems that may create excessive load on the engine. Repair any
damaged components or replace any damaged components.
