Use nozzle tester to check injection starting pressure.
The injection starting pressure should be 2844 psig (200 kg/sq cm).
Nozzle injection starting pressure adjustment is accomplished by increasing or decreasing the number
of adjusting shims (7).
Adjustment by 0.039 inch (1.0 mm) results in a change in the injection starting pressure of about 284
psig.
Adjusting shims can be obtained in the following sizes.
0.004 inch (0.10 mm)
0.005 inch (0.15 mm)
0.015 inch (0.40 mm)
0.019 inch (0.50 mm)
0.024 inch (0.60 mm)
0.027 inch (0.70 mm)
0.031 inch (0.80 mm)
Standard adjusting shim thickness should be approximately 0.023-0.025 inch (0.60-0.65 mm).
REPAIR:
a.
Disassembly of Fuel Injection Nozzle
(1) Remove case nut (1).
(2) Remove fuel injection nozzle body and valve (2).
