Hydraulic Coupler
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The hydraulic coupler transfers the longitudinal movement from the piezo actuator to the fuel injector control valve. It also acts as a seal preventing fuel from entering the piezo actuator device.
