Change
the injectors as
follows
:
1.
Thoroughly
clean ihe area surrounding the
injectors and injector pipes,
then remove the
leak-off pipes
(5)
and the
injector-to-pump pipes.
2.
Cover the
ends of the pipes, the
injector inlet
(4)
and leak-off ports
(6)
and the pump
outlet ports
(7).
This is extremely

retaining nuts

at each injector and
remove
the injectors
and their dust sealing washers.

Remove the copper seating
washors from the injector
locating bores
in the
cylinder head.
Install a new
copper seating washer in each
injector locating bore and
locate a new dust sealing
washer over each bore.
Install the
replacement
injectors and tighten the retaining nuts evenly.
Do not overtighten.
Re-install
the injector-to-pump
pipes tightening the
connections finger
tight.
8. Tighten
the connections at
the pump, leaving the
connections
at
the
injectors loose (see 10 below).
9. Re-install the
leak-off pipe using new
connector bolt sealing washers
above
and below each
banjo fitting. Tighten the
connecting
bolts to the
injectors and
ensure that the
leak-off pipe-to-fuel tank return pipe
fittings are
tight.
10. Finally,
bleed the
system
by
cranking the engine continuously
(with
the
stop
control pushed in) until
fuel free of air is discharged from the loose
injector
connections. Whilst
still cranking the engine tighten each con-
nection in
turn.
