Remove all the injectors. (See Gr13.)
Cover the injector mounting holes with shop towels or other sim-
ilar cloth. Crank the engine using the starter. Ensure that no for-
eign matter is attached on the shop towels.
CAUTION
If cracks or any other damage are evident in the cylinders,
this means that the coolant, engine oil or fuel, or other sub-
stances, has entered the cylinders. If this is the case, it is
extremely dangerous to crank the engine as these sub-
stances will gush out at high temperature from the injector
mounting holes. Stay away from the engine when cranking
it.
Attach the nozzle gasket and to one of the mounting holes.
Then, connect a compression gauge to .
Crank the engine and measure the compression pressure.
Measure the compression pressure for all the cylinders one after
another. Determine the compression pressure difference be-
tween the cylinders.
If the compression pressure is below the limit or the pressure dif-
ference between each cylinder is not within the limit, pour a
small amount of engine oil into the corresponding mounting hole
and measure the compression pressure again.
If the compression pressure increases, the piston rings and
inner surfaces of cylinder may be badly worn or otherwise
damaged.
If the compression pressure remains unchanged, there may
be seizure in the valves, the valves may be incorrectly seated
or the cylinder head gasket may be defective.
Install the injector. (See Gr13.)
Install the rocker cover and the gasket. (See “ROCKER COV-
ER, ROCKER AND SHAFT”.)
