Repair Procedures: Replacement

The injector combustion seal should be replaced with a new one to prevent leakage after removing the injector.

  1. Remove the combustion seal (A) with a wire cutter.

    CAUTION:
    • Grip the sealing ring carefully, pull it to form a small loop and then cut it.
    • Be careful not to damage the surface of the valve sleeve with the wire cutter.
  2. Before the assembly of the sealing ring the groove must be cleaned with a clean cloth.

    Any coking of the injector sealing surface must be carefully removed with a brass-wire brush.

    CAUTION:
    • The surfaces of the new sealing ring must be clean and free of grease.
  3. Place the seal installing guide (B) (SST No.: 09353-2B000) on the tip of the injector not to damage the injector tip (A).

    Push the sealing ring (C) with thumb and index finger over the conical assembly tool until it snaps into the groove.

    The complete assembly must not take longer than 2 to 3 seconds.

    • Do not reuse the combustion seal.
    • The seal must be completely free of grease and oil.
  6. Check the combustion seal (A) installation.
