INJECTION NOZZLE ADJUSTMENT
The fuel injection starting pressure adjustment of this
injection nozzle is done by rereplacing or decreasing or
increasing the number of shims installed.
1) Attach the injection nozzle holder to the injection
nozzle tester.
2) Apply pressure to the nozzle tester to check that the
injection nozzle opens at the specified pressure.
If the injection nozzle does not open at the specified
pressure, install or remove the appropriate number of
ajusting shims to adjust it.
Nozzle Opening Pressure kg/cm2 (psi/MPa)
185 (2,631/18.1)
Adjusting Shim Availability rnm(in)
Range 0.50 – 1.50 (0.02 – 0.06)
Increment 0.025 (0.001)
Total No. of Shims 41
Removing or installing one shim will increase or decrease
the nozzle opening pressure approximately 3.77 kg/cm3
(53.6 psi/369.46 kPa).
WARNING:
TEST FLUID FROM THE INJECTION NOZZLE TESTER
WILL SPRAY OUT UNDER GREAT PRESSURE. IT CAN
EASILY PUNCTURE A PERSON’S SKIN. KEEP YOUR
HANDS AWAY FROM THE INJECTION NOZZLE
TESTER AT ALL TIMES.
Inspection & Repair
Make the necessary adjustments, repairs, and part
replacements if excessive wear or damage is discovered
during inspection.
INJECTION NO ZZLE NEEDLE SEI ZURE INSPECTION
1) Remove the injection nozzle needle from the injection
nozzle body.
2) Carefully wash the injection nozzle needle and the
injection nozzle body in clean diesel fuel.
3) Check that the injection needle valve moves smoothly
inside the injection nozzle body.
If the injection needle valve does not move smoothly, it
must be replaced.
INJECTION NO ZZLE BODY AND INJECTION NEEDLE
INSPECTION
Check the injection nozzle body and the injection needle
valve for damage and deformation.
The injection nozzl e assembly must be replaced if either of
these two conditions are discovered during inspection.
