9999 CATERPILLAR CATERPILLAR Recalls (3)

Campaign:
77E020000 on 10/11/1979
Component:
Engine and engine cooling:engine
Affected:
400
Defect:
The top end of the main spring that controls the governor in the speed control is positioned by a two-piece seat. the inside of this seat can wear and cause the sleeve portion of the seat to separate from the washer portion. consequently, the sleeve can drop down and lock the fuel rack in the fully open position, causing engine overspeed.
Correction:
Dealer will install an improved seat assembly and guides, without charge.
Notes:
Vehicle category: trucks.system: equipment; speed control system, model no. 3408.consequences of defect: this condition could lead to loss of vehicle controland an accident.note: if engine overspeeding occurs before the defect has been corrected, thespeed control switch should be immeditely shut off and the truck left in gearto prevent possible engine damage.
Campaign:
82E018000 on 09/27/1982
Component:
Fuel system, gasoline:storage:auxillary tank
Manufactured:
09/30/1977 - 08/31/1982
Affected:
272
Defect:
A possibility exists on the involved vehicles, that due to vibrations generated by the truck, the fuel filter"s top connector may break from the bottom of the fuel tank due to metal fatigue. this failure allows the diesel ignition improver to spray out fuel.
Correction:
The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, remove the filters from the tank and install a flexible hose from the bottom of the tank to the filter.
Notes:
Vehicle category: trucks equipped with caterpillar 3208 engines.system: fuel; fuel injection, model no. 9n3771.consequences of defect: if the tank is inside the engine compartment, a firecould result which could cause serious personal injury to anyone in thevehicle.
Campaign:
83E020000 on 12/08/1983
Component:
Engine and engine cooling:engine:diesel
Manufactured:
07/31/1983 - 09/30/1983
Affected:
112
Defect:
Shield over the governor flyweights may detatch from carrier and interfere with movement of the weights and governor linkage. the vehicle operator may not be able to shift into gear selected or to prevent engine over-speed.
Correction:
Shields found to be cracked will be replaced and staked at four points. others will be staked at two additional points, making a total of four.
Notes:
Vehicle category: heavy trucks equipped with diesel engines caterpillar modelno. 3406b.system: engine; governor control shield.consequences of defect: loss of control over engine speed may lead to loss ofvehicle control and an accident. also, unexpected movement may result in anaccident or personal injury.
