Equipped with Diesel Engines with an EGR Cooler
This bulletin supersedes bulletin SB09-J-002B. This bulletin is updated to revised
Model Years. Please discard Service Bulletin SB09-J-002B.
INFORMATION
An EGR cooler tester was shipped essential to dealers in June 2009 to diagnose EGR
cooler leaks on all Isuzu diesel engines equipped with an EGR cooler. This tester
consists of a pressure regulator assembly J-46091-1 and adapter EN-48974-5/EN48974-15. One adapter will fit the 5.2L EGR cooler while the other will fit the 7.8L.
Important: Leaks from the EGR cooler may allow coolant to pass through the exhaust
system and enter the combustion chambers. Failure to inspect the EGR cooler for leaks
may lead to a misdiagnosis for engine coolant in the combustion chamber.
Important: Leaks from the EGR cooler may allow exhaust gas air to pass to the engine
coolant passage within the EGR cooler. Failure to inspect the EGR cooler for leaks may
lead to a misdiagnosis of air in the engine cooling system.
EGR Cooler Pressure Tester
J-46091-1 – EGR Cooler Tester Pressure Regulator Assembly
EN-48974-5 – EGR Cooler Tester Adapter (5/8 inch for 5.2L)
EN-48974-15 – EGR Cooler Tester Adapter (17 mm for 7.8L).
SERVICE PROCEDURE
EGR Cooler Testing
1. Partially drain the engine coolant to allow EGR cooler hose removal.
2. With the cooler on the engine, install the end cap and clamp of EN-48974 (EGR
cooler tester adapter) to one of the EGR cooler hose barbs and install the
pressure tester adapter hose and clamp to the other EGR cooler hose barb.
3. Back off the regulator on the J-46091-1 (EGR cooler pressure regulator
assembly) by turning the knob counterclockwise until it stops.
4. Connect J-46091-1 to EN-48974, and connect 90 PSI shop air to J-46091-1.
5. Open the shutoff valve, and then slowly turn the regulator on J-46091-1
clockwise until the gauge reads 30 psi.
6. Shut off the valve on J-46091-1 and monitor the gauge for leak down. Remove
the EGR cooler if it does not hold pressure.
7. If the EGR cooler does not hold pressure, redo Steps 5 and 6 with the EGR
cooler submerged in water. After placing the EGR cooler under water, shake
and rotate the cooler for approximately 1 minute to ensure all air bubbles escape
from the exhaust gas passage before testing. With the pressure set to 30 psi
watch for air bubbles. Watch for at least 1 minute. This is done to ensure the
EGR cooler is leaking and not the EGR cooler tester.
Note: Not removing this trapped air may result in missed diagnosis.
Rotate Cooler to release trapped air
Shake Cooler to release trapped air
