The problem

On certain refuse packer trucks equipped with caterpillar c7 or c9 diesel engines, a fuel pump failure will dilute the engine oil with fuel and cause loss of throttle control and excessive smoke.

The risk

Loss of throttle can increase the risk of a crash and fuel leakage. In the presence of an ignition source, fuel leakage could result in a fire.

The fix

Crane carrier will work with caterpillar to replace the fuel pump on affected chassis free of charge. Owners may contact caterpillar at 1-800-447-4986 or crane carrier at 918-832-7305.
