The fuel of test E1000 must have the same amount of pollutants and chemical aggressiveness foun

9、d in the field. 4.3.1.1 Fuel Composition. See GMW14914.Table 2A GMSA (GM South America, E100) 4.3.2 Corrosion Resistance of Vehicles Fuel Feeding System Parts. 4.3.2.1 Static Test to Evaluate the Corrosion Resistance of Vehicles Fuel Feeding System Parts. All parts of fuel feeding system must stand

10、plunged into the ethanol of test, for 15 days minimum, and aeration, at 70 C 3 C, according to device described in ASTM D1384, and must not exhibit corrosion products. 4.3.2.2 Dynamic Test to Evaluate the Corrosion Resistance of Vehicles Fuel Feeding System Parts. A simplified assembly with represen

11、tative parts of the fuel feeding system must run for 700 h minimum, according normal operation conditions (flow, pressure, etc.) at 70 C 3 C. The minimum period of 700 h of running test, must correspond to the 18 h (maximum) daily running period. Normally run 9 h daily. The ethanol fuel of test must

12、 be changed every 72 and 96 h, respectively, in the 168 h of week during all test. This test must simulate the low usage condition. The following graphics show a “low usage” cycle (period of 3 h), that must be repeated during the whole test period. The variations of 0, 900, and 2 500 rpm should only

13、 be used for testing fuel injectors.

When necessary, the Product Engineer responsible for the parts of vehicle feeding system might order anothe

15、r corrosion resistance and performance tests, same as dolly engine and low usage, which must be accomplished by the Engine Laboratory at General Motors Cruz Alta Proving Ground, Indaiatuba Brazil, respectively. The tests must follow the specific procedures of each responsible area for completion. 5
