Engine Prelubrication Procedure for
Isuzu Diesel Engines
Isuzu Truck of America has released the following procedure for prelubricating diesel engines. This procedure applies to new, remanufactured or partially disassembled engines.
If the engine is equipped with a turbocharger be sure to pour 4 oz. of clean SAE CD grade engine oil into the turbo charger oil passage. This can best be accomplished by removing the oil supply line to the turbocharger. Rotate the compressor or turbine wheel by hand to distribute the oil. Attach any oil supply lines that have been removed.
While holding the fuel shutoff lever closed crank the engine with the starter for 10 seconds. This is applicable to all engines, whether turbocharged or naturally aspirated. Pause for one minute to permit the batteries to recover and the starter to cool down and repeat this process two more times.
Release the fuel shutoff lever and start the engine. Follow break-in procedures as outlined in the appropriate service manual or AERA's Break-In Procedure.
