REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS



<<A>> FUEL HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE DISCONNECTION





1.Follow the steps below to unlock the fuel high-pressure hose connector.
(1) Insert a flat-tipped screwdriver (6 mm wide and 1 mm thick) into the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector.
(2)
caution When pushing up the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector, pay attention to avoid damage to the retainer.
Turn the flat-tipped screwdriver inserted into the retainer by 90 degrees to push up the retainer and unlock the fuel high-pressure hose connector.
2.Remove the fuel high-pressure hose.

<<B>> FUEL DELIVERY PIPE AND FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL


caution Do not drop the fuel injector.
Remove the fuel delivery pipe with the fuel injectors attached to it.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS



>>A<< O-RING INSTALLATION



1.Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.
2.While turning the fuel injector to right and left, install the O-ring to the fuel injector with care to avoid damage to the O-ring.

>>B<< O-RING INSTALLATION


1.Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.

2.Using special tool O-ring installer (MB992106), install the fuel injector paying attention to avoid damage to the O-ring.

>>C<< FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION


1.
caution When applying the engine oil, make sure not to allow the engine oil to enter the fuel delivery pipe inside.
Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.

2.Turning the fuel injector assembly to right and left, install it to the fuel delivery pipe with care not to damage the O-ring. After the installation, check for its smooth rotation. At this time, check that the projection part of the fuel injector assembly is in the centre.
3.If the rotation is not smooth, the O-ring may be caught. Remove the fuel injector assembly and check the O-ring for damage. After this, re-insert it to the fuel delivery pipe and check for its smooth rotation.

>>D<< FUEL INJECTOR SUPPORT INSTALLATION



Install the fuel injector support to the fuel injector groove and fuel delivery pipe flange, and fix the fuel injector assembly and fuel delivery pipe.

>>E<< FUEL DELIVERY PIPE AND FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY/BRACKET/INJECTOR PROTECTOR REAR INSTALLATION


1.
caution When applying the engine oil, make sure not to allow the engine oil to enter the inlet manifold inside.
Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring at the end of fuel injector assembly.
2.
caution When installing the fuel delivery pipe and fuel injector assembly to the inlet manifold, pay attention to avoid damage to the O-ring at the end of the fuel injector assembly.
Install the fuel delivery pipe and fuel injector assembly to the inlet manifold.
3.Install the bracket and injector protector rear.

4.Loosen the inlet manifold mounting bolts and nuts (Bolts and nuts 1, 2, 3, and 9 shown in the figure).
5.Loosen the inlet manifold stay mounting bolts (Refer to GROUP 15 - Inlet Manifold ).
6.Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts of the inlet manifold, bracket, fuel delivery pipe and injector protector rear to the specified torque in the order of number shown in the figure.
Tightening torque: 3.5 ± 1.5 N·m
7.Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts of the inlet manifold, bracket, fuel delivery pipe and injector protector rear to the specified torque in the order of number shown in the figure again.
Tightening torque: 20 ± 2 N·m
8.Tighten the inlet manifold stay mounting bolts to the specified torque (Refer to GROUP 15 - Inlet Manifold ).
Tightening torque: 20 ± 2 N·m

>>F<< FUEL HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE CONNECTION



1.Pull up the retainer of fuel high-pressure hose to unlock before installing.

2.Securely insert the fuel delivery pipe stopper into the fuel high-pressure hose connector groove to install the fuel high-pressure hose to the fuel delivery pipe.
caution
  • When pushing in the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector, pay attention to avoid damage to the retainer.
  • After the installation of the fuel high-pressure hose, slightly pull the fuel high-pressure hose to check that it is connected securely. At this time, also check that there is approximately 1 mm play.
3.Push in the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector to lock the fuel high-pressure hose and fuel delivery pipe.
