(c) Nozzle valve sliding test
Wash the nozzle valve in clean fuel oil. Place the
nozzle body vertically and insert the nozzle into the
body to about 1/3 of its length. The valve is normal if
it smoothly falls by its own weight into the body. In
case of a new nozzle, remove the seal peel, and
immerse it in clean diesel oil or the like to clean the
inner and outer surfaces and to thoroughly remove
rust-preventive oil before using the nozzle. Note that
a new nozzle is coated with rust-preventive oil and is
pasted with the seal peel to shut off outer air.
