High Pressure Line, Installing: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

Clean the fuel line and the line connection before installing with detergent and dry it with compressed air.

When using the high pressure line again, pay attention to the cylinder identification.

The high pressure lines can be reused only after the following tests:

Check the sealing cone on each high pressure line for deformation and cracks.

The holes for the lines must not be deformed, narrowed or damaged.

Do not use corroded lines again.

CAUTION:

Danger of line break due to tensioned high pressure lines.

Loosen the high pressure reservoir and move it slightly. This makes it possible to mount the fuel injection line free of tension. The lines must not be bent or under stress.

-- Remove any dirt from the sealing cone on the high pressure reservoir.

-- Tighten the high pressure line union nuts by hand, making sure they are seated without tension.

-- Use the :VAG1331 with :VAG1331/6 or :T40055 to tighten the high pressure lines on the high pressure reservoir and the fuel injectors.
