OTC expanded its specialty tools catalog with fuel system tools for use on Detroit Diesel applications. Each of the Detroit Diesel fuel system tools from OTC are designed with the modern technician and evolving heavy duty market in mind and are available throughout North America.

Fuel System Priming Pump, No. 5869

  • The OTC Fuel System Priming Pump is designed to allow technicians to pressurize a fuel system after service to ensure proper operation and efficient starting on all Detroit Diesel engines.

Fuel System Coupler Fitting, No. 5869-1

  • The OTC Fuel System Coupler Fitting assists with fuel system priming by connecting to the fuel system through a “compu-check” quick connect fitting. The 5869-1 is suitable for Detroit Diesel Series 60, MBE 900, and MBE 4000 engines.

Fuel System Test Gauge, No. 5868

  • The OTC Fuel System Test Gauge is used by technicians to properly diagnose and repair fuel systems. The 5868 can be connected directly to the priming port fitting on the engine fuel module of Detroit Diesel DD13 and DD15 engines.
