Td5 injector removal tool

[mattg]

Hi all after reading urban panzer page on changing injector washers and seals does anyone have an idea on where to get the injector removal tool and how much they are ? Cheers Matt

Just use a long allen key, a 4 or 5mm hex one can be used a lever with the bend as the pivot under the injector bridge.

I used a 150mm roll head pry bar with near no effort required.
You dont need a special tool.
Make sure you lube the orings.

Dingocroft in the UK sell them. UP made a fairly serious investment in tooling to change his injectors:

Engine Tools - Part2 (http://www.dingocroft.co.uk/acatalog/Engine_Tools2.html)

Injector puller: £93.26
Insertion Tool for Injector Washer: £13.85
Removal Tool for Injector Washers on TD5: £82.25
Sleeve for 'O' Ring Fitting: £36.98

etc...

Gee that adds up are there work around a for this. Hoping my new motor has injectors still in it when I pick it up on Monday.

I reckon we need to start up a D2 Td5 tool share ;)

Update:
As the head needs to come off anyway to assess damage from a broken cam chain we ended up taking the cam block off using a pry bar on both sides of the injectors. We think the head was torqued up with the injectors in place as they were seriously stuck. We even tried the correct tool. Cheers Matt

I made up a couple of fingers out of 10mm bolts for my improvised slide hammer. Worked a treat and my local LR mechanic even borrows it occassionally.

What part of NSW are you mattg? If close to Hornsby area you are also welcome to borrow it if still required.

You've been digging deep..

I know a bloke who has the viscous fan spanners, and I have a drawer full of hammers...

I DO have some 300 TDi stuff that I'd lend though. Trouble of course is geographical.

You can use this, just take it apart

I did use those .. but I could only get 2 injectors out .. the others were suck solid.
Could make something up but I have just bought the proper injector removal tool.
I'll do the job and then resell it .. maybe to someone else in the same position.

this fitted perfectly for all injectors, the hook and the heel are the correct shape mine is a snap on pry bar but there are others

did you rotate the cam?

[rapserv]

did you rotate the cam?

Yes .. cam was clear.
Just annoyed that I only got 2 out .. then again .. that's often the case when you try to do a job without the right tools.
The 2 that I did do, actually looked pretty good after 280,000km. [smilebigeye]
