Abstract
Techniques for detecting failures associated with fuel distribution systems. The techniques may include receiving first oil pressure data associated with an engine of a machine and receiving second oil pressure data associated with a high-pressure pump supplying fuel to the engine. Based at least in part on the first oil pressure data and the second oil pressure data, an impending failure associated with the high-pressure pump may be determined. For instance, utilizing the first oil pressure data and the second oil pressure data, a difference between a first oil pressure value associated with the engine and a second oil pressure value associated with the high-pressure pump may be calculated. The difference in the oil pressure values and the second oil pressure value may be indicative of the impending failure. In some instances, an action may be performed based on detecting the impending failure.
