OPERATION 59
CHECK AND CLEAN FUEL INJECTORS
IMPORTANT: The injectors should be cleaned and
adjusted by an authorized dealer or an injector
specialist.
WARNING
Diesel fuel escaping under pressure can
penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
•
Do not use your hand to check for leaks. Use a
piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks.
Wear eye protection.
•
Stop the engine and relieve pressure before
connecting or disconnecting lines.
•
Tighten all connections before starting the
engine or pressurizing lines.
If any fluid is injected into the skin, obtain medical
attention immediately or gangrene may result.
IMPORTANT: Before loosening or disconnecting
any part of the fuel injection system, thoroughly clean
the area to be worked on.
IMPORTANT: Remove and replace one injector at a
time. This will reduce the chance of dirt entering the
engine through the injector opening.
IMPORTANT: Place caps on all open lines or injector
openings to prevent the entry of dirt.
The following text assumes that you have a spare set
of injectors which have been cleaned and adjusted

from the injector, 2.
2. Remove the leak off line retaining bolt, 3.
