Td5, possible to replace individual injector seals?

**Patrick110td5** · 25th January 2023, 10:40 AM

Have hopefully isolated injector issue down to two injectors. I have replacement 2nd hand injectors, can I remove just the two, hit the starter with the fuel pump fuse removed to purge the cylinders, then put it all back together? Or will hitting the starter with 3 injectors still full of fuel damage things?

Don't turn the engine - the injectors should easily lift out.

In case you weren't aware, the ecm will have to be reprogrammed for any replacement injectors using the code on the injector.

If the injector seals have been leaking, have you tried tightening the injector clamps in case it's not tight enough?

Gunna need a Nanocom ( or similar ).

Thank, yep got a nanocom, just trying to avoid redoing all 5 seals, I’ll take all out to be on the safe side

If having to replace some seals then may as renew them all, as there's little effort in removing the injectors.

Have to agree. While you're in there and all that.
