Abstract

The Cummins QSL 9.3L diesel engine is a production engine from CLG or Cummins Liugong. This type of engine is typically used in heavy equipment such as Wheel Loaders. A diesel engine is an internal combustion engine where the combustion process occurs inside the engine itself, and pure air is compressed within the combustion chamber, resulting in high air pressure. It operates in four strokes. This engine experienced low power, causing it to malfunction, which led to abnormal operation. Various checks were conducted, including inspection of diesel fuel, fuel tank inspection, engine oil level check, visual inspection of the air cleaner, water separator check, Fuel Feed Pump check, and Clearance Valve Lash check. The problem identified was the mismatch of Valve Lash clearance in the engine, resulting in low power. The repair step involved adjusting the Valve lash using a Feeler Gauge. The purpose of this research is to provide an explanation of troubleshooting and to perform repairs on engines experiencing low power

Abstract

The Liugong type 856H Wheel Loader unit was donated by PT. Liugong Machinery to Liuzhou Vocational and Technical College (LVTC) as part of a collaborative effort to support teaching and learning activities at LVTC. During practical use, this Wheel Loader unit experienced engine overheating. The aim of troubleshooting the engine overheating issue was to identify the root cause of the problem. This research was conducted using direct observation methods, specifically employing a 7-step troubleshooting approach. The research findings indicate that the engine overheating in the Liugong type 856H Wheel Loader unit was caused by a malfunctioning thermostat component. According to specifications, the thermostat should begin to open at a temperature of 78°C and fully open at 92°C. However, upon inspection, the thermostat did not open until the temperature reached 90°C. This prevented coolant from flowing to the radiator for cooling. As a result, the hot coolant continued to circulate within the engine, leading to engine overheating. The corrective action taken was to replace the faulty component.
