Expert Maintenance Guide: Caterpillar Fuel System FAQ

Question: Why is my CAT excavator losing power and having vacuum build-up in the tank?
Answer: This is often caused by a faulty fuel cap. The 6L8617 cap features a breathing vent. If the vent is clogged, a vacuum forms, preventing fuel from reaching the engine. Replacing your old cap with a new 6L-8617 often solves intermittent engine stalling.
Question: How often should I inspect the 6L8617 fuel cap seal?
Answer: During every engine rebuild or routine maintenance. Dust and moisture entry through a worn seal can damage your Caterpillar fuel injectors and pump.
