    OBC (Outer Base Circle) Method for setting valves and injectors when standard PTD Injectors are fitted:

    OBC (Outer Base Circle) Method for setting valves and injectors when standard PTD injectors are fitted.

    Image of a Typical PTD Injector Loosen all valves and injectors so that the engine turns freely while
    keeping the push rods in place.

    Rotate engine clockwise until the "A, OR 1-6 VS" timing mark on the accessory drive pulley is aligned
    with the timing indicator on the front gear case, as shown in the illustration. Set the injector and valves
    on cylinder #1 or #6 as required.

    Mark the rockers of the set valves and injector with a white pen to keep tabs on what you've done.

    Rotate the engine to the next timing mark and set the appropriate valves and injector, proceed until all
    valves and injectors are set. Two engine revolutions are required to set all the valves and injectors.

    Settings for Cummins NTC 855 Big Cam engine when top-stop injectors are fitted.

    Image of the Timing indicator on the gear caseImage of a TopStopInjector

    Use the IBC (inner base circle) method to set NTC,s when top-stop injectors are fitted. Essentially this
    means that the setting points, setting order and setting values for the valves and injectors are different
    from the OBC method described above, but you still use the marks on the accessory drive pulley and the
    gear case for orientation.

    Note: the very low injector torque might require a special torque wrench to achieve. Do not exceed the
    torque. You should be able to just rotate the pin, rocker to injector, with your fingers after torquing the
    injector.

    Loosen all valves and injectors so that the engine turns freely while keeping the push rods in place.
    Rotate engine clockwise until the "A, OR 1-6 VS" timing mark on the accessory drive pulley is aligned
    with the timing indicator on the front gear case, as shown in the illustration. Set the injector and valves
    on cylinder # according to the table below.

    Mark the rockers of the set valves and injector with a white pen to keep tabs on what you've done.

    Rotate the engine to the next timing mark and set the appropriate valves and injector, proceed until all
    valves and injectors are set. Two engine revolutions are required to set all the valves and injectors.

    The following table gives the setting order for top-stop injectors:
