Issue

In the dedicated engine used to operate the refrigeration unit, the delivery guide inside the delivery holder of the fuel injection pump received improper heat treatment during manufacturing, causing initial cracks to form at the seal. Continued use allows these initial cracks to propagate, which may result in a fuel leak.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the fuel injection pump delivery assembly on the refrigeration unit engine with a revised assembly incorporating a conforming delivery guide.
