NOTE: RISK OF DAMAGE
Damage to injectors.
Excessive force may damage the injector and this means having to replace the injector.- Twist the injectors with a torsional movement of maximum 13 Nm.
- If the predefined value for the tensile force is exceeded, replace the injector.
- Use the special tool 2 358 417
to remove the injectors.
Special tool 2 358 417 ensures that the tensile force is not exceeded.
The special tool 2 358 417 consists of:
- Threaded sleeve
- Pull-out thread (left-hand thread)
- Mount for the injectors
- Unscrew the mount for the injectors (1)
from the special tool 2 358 417
.
- Press in the lock (1)
and remove the threaded sleeve (2)
from the special tool 2 358 417
.
- Attach all mounts (1)
for the injectors.
The mount (1) is not locked if the lever (2) is on the top.
- Turn mounts (1)
by 90°
and lock levers (2)
downwards.NOTE: RISK OF DAMAGE
Damage to injectors.
Excessive force may damage the injector and this means having to replace the injector- Do not use the puller plate as a support.
- Attach special tool 2 358 417 to cylinder head.
- Hand-tighten the bolts (arrows).NOTE: TECHNICAL INFORMATION
The extraction thread is a left-hand thread. - Screw in pull-out thread (1) on the special tool 2 358 417 fully.
- Slide in threaded sleeves (1) again and screw them fully onto the injector mounts.
- Tighten the screws (arrows) on the special tool 2 358 417 to 5 Nm.
- Adjust the torque wrench (1) to 13 Nm clockwise rotation.
- Turn torque wrench (1)
in clockwise
direction with special tool 0 496 106 (11 8 720
) until the injector is pulled out.NOTE: TECHNICAL INFORMATION
If the torque wrench makes a crack when the injector is pulled out, the injector must be replaced. - Disassemble all injectors individually.
- Before removing the special tool 2 358 417 with the injectors, check if all the injectors were completely pulled out of the cylinder head. This can be recognized on the completely visible threads of the pull-out thread.
- Loosen screws on special tool 2 358 417.
- Carefully remove the special tool 2 358 417 with the injectors (1) vertically straight up from the cylinder head.
- Place the combination of the special tool 2 358 417
and the injectors (1)
flat onto a clean table.NOTE: The description is provided only at one component. The procedure is the same for all other components.
- Unlock the stand lock (1)
from the top.
- Turn the unlocked stand (1) by 90°.
- Release and remove the injector downwards.
