TM 5-4320-300-14 5-2. SYMPTOM INDEX Refer to the Symptom Index below. Locate the malfunction which is the same, or most nearly the same, as the trouble you are having with the pump assembly. The Symptom Index lists the first page of troubleshooting information for that malfunction. Follow the steps one by one, and perform the corrective actions listed.

Direct Support Troubleshooting MALFUNCTION TEST OR INSPECTION CORRECTIVE ACTION 1.ENGINE FAILS TO CRANK OR CRANKS AT LOW SPEED Step 1. Check for faulty starter motor. Remove and test (para 5-6). Repair faulty starter motor (para 5-6). 2. ENGINE CRANKS BUT FAILS TO START Step 1. Check for loose cylinder head bolts. If loose, tighten in the sequence shown to 170 to 180 ft lb (231 to 244 Nm). Step 2. Check for compression gasket leakage. Remove radiator cap and crank the engine. A steady flow of gases bubbling to the surface of the coolant indicates either a damaged compression gasket or cracked cylinder head. Remove cylinder head and replace compression gaskets (para 5-18). If replacing compression gaskets does not eliminate gas bubbles at coolant surface, replace the cylinder head (para 5-18). 5-2
