Fault Phenomenon: Caterpillar D6N dozer engine power low, stalls under high load, manual primer pump feels no resistance.

Troubleshooting Process:
– Checked transfer pump: disassembly revealed diaphragm ruptured.
– Checked fuel: fuel mixed with oil (if shared) or air.
– Checked push rod: drive push rod worn.
– Checked filter: primary filter clogged.

Root Cause: The rubber diaphragm in the mechanical fuel transfer pump ruptured due to aging or fuel corrosion, unable to build sufficient transfer pressure.
