Volvo diesel generators may experience low-pressure oil path failures, making the engine difficult to start. While resolving air bubble issues is straightforward, it is crucial to identify and address the root cause rather than just removing the bubbles. Otherwise, bubbles will reoccur. Guangxi Dingbo Power emphasizes that only by pinpointing the source can hidden dangers be completely eliminated.

 

Causes and Handling of Oil Path Bubbles

Air bubbles in the oil path may result from contaminated oil or issues with the fuel tank. Their presence can cause significant problems, but the following steps can resolve the issue:

Most diesel generator oil path systems are equipped with bleed screws. To remove bubbles, simply loosen the bleed screw.

For engines without bleed screws, loosen the oil pipe joints to release air. First, purge air from the low-pressure oil path, then from the high-pressure path, until no bubbles remain in the entire system.

 

Bubbles should be eliminated progressively along the oil path. Tighten the bolts only after clean, bubble-free diesel flows out. If the oil flows smoothly without bubbles, the low-pressure path is intact, and the actual fault may lie in the high-pressure path. Importantly, the cause of air ingress must be identified and repaired promptly to prevent recurrence.
