Fuel Injector Replacement Tools


Replacing the injectors can require special tools. A couple cautions I've heard are: It's easy to crack the hollow top chamber of the head casting if too much pressure is applied prying on the injector. The seats should be resurfaced. Anyway, here's a way to get some info on what is needed.

The thread:

Gotta love it!! Injector failure leads to piston failure!
http://sprinter-source.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13997

The injector replacement discussions begin around post #30

Thanks goes to Doktor A.

The tools are available for rental at Europarts-SD

Waynerodd also mentioned possibly renting the tools, but doesn't do that as of 2011/01/13.

Have fun. vic

20110608 Edit: My experience changing injectors. Apparently it has gone better for some.

A recent post brought out two tool suppliers which have Sprinter specific tools. Apparently the prices are dear, but the quality is reportedly good. Thanks goes to Dogwalker, JDCaples, et al.

First let me thank Jon for answering the previous question. I missed it.

June 8, 2011

I have some on-line coupons from Harbor Freight. I think I can forward them. PM if interested. These items may be something Sprinter owners might be interested in.

Orings_5973.jpg

397 Piece Metric O-Ring Assortment


http://www.harborfreight.com/397-pie...tm_source=1002

Nitrile rubber which is listed for diesel and oils.

$5.99 w/ coupon


Rapid Pump® 3 Ton Heavy Duty Floor Jack

jack_9593.jpg

http://www.harborfreight.com/Rapid-P...tm_source=1002

$79.99 w/ coupon

Harbor Freight ain't the best quality, but it's worked fine for my DIY tool use over the years. YMMV. vic
