What is the tolerance between the nozzle needle and the nozzle body of a common rail diesel injector?

What happens if you put diesel fuel injector cleaner into a unleaded car?

Diesel fuel injector cleaner will not hurt your unleaded gas motor. The diesel fuel injector cleaner is basically the same as your unleaded injector cleaner.

What is a fire washer fitted to a diesel injector?

A fire washer, also known as an injector seal, is usually fitted to a diesel injector. The fire washer is responsible for keeping diesel vapor from escaping the combustion chamber.

Would a faulty injector stop a BMW 3 series diesel from starting can it start on 3 injectors?

The 3 series BMW uses a common rail diesel injection system. This means a high pressure pump provides diesel to a common rail feeding all 4 injectors. If one injector goes down there can be insufficient pressure to start the car. The 3 series BMW uses a common rail diesel injection system. This means a high pressure pump provides diesel to a common rail feeding all 4 injectors. If one injector goes down there can be insufficient pressure to start the car.

What is the difference between a conventional diesel engine and common rail diesel engine.How does the common rail diesel engine work?

Common rail diesel basic description:A common rail diesel engine differs from a conventional diesel engine in several important respects. A conventional diesel engine works via a mechanical injection system, which relies on the engine's diesel injection pump to deliver the required fuel pressure, at the correct time, to the diesel injector in order to allow the injector to operate. Each individual injector on a conventional diesel engine has its own pipe or "rail" connecting the injector to the mechanical pump, allowing the delivery of fuel to the injector. Common rail diesel injection systems work on a much different principle. In this system the mechanical controls are replaced by electronic controls to allow for more precise metering and timing of the fuel delivery into the engine, and therefore the injection pump is no longer solely responsible for the operation of the injection system. Also, the individual injector rails are replaced by 1 (or 2) "common rail" which operates under a constant high pressure. There is no injection pump associated with this system, yet a high pressure pump is still required to deliver the high pressure fuel to the common rail. The high pressure pump is capable of producing (depending on the system used) approximately 29000 psi of pressure into the common rail. At the correct time the electronic injector is operated and the fuel is injected into the engine allowing ignition to occur. The timing and fuel quantity is controlled by an advanced engine management system which gathers data on the engine conditions via a collection of sensors. All of these sensors measure different system parameters to calculate the correct fueling for the engine at any given moment.

How to set an injector for a 320 diesel marine engine?

One can set an injector for a 320 diesel marine engine by setting the timing and duration.

Can you use diesel fuel injector cleaner in gas engines?

no i dont think you can use diesel fuel injector cleaner in gas engines

What are the constructional differences between an electronically controlled diesel system and a common rail diesel fuel system?

This question is kind of vague. Common rail diesel fuel systems are electronically controlled. A common rail fuel system has a high pressure pump that supplies the fuel at very high pressure to a single or common volume that all of the injectors are connected to. The injectors are then electronically signaled to operate, and draw their pressurized fuel from the common rail. The amount of fuel delivered is controlled by the injector. This system is somewhat similar to your port injection gasoline engine, but at much higher pressures. An electronically controled diesel that isn't common rail will have an injection pump that supplies high pressure fuel to each injector individually. The amount of fuel delivered is controlled electronically by the high pressure injector pump.

What are the signs of a cracked injector cup in a 7.3 diesel?

To begin with you will smell diesel after parking. You will also have your coolant system start overflowing because it will be filling up with diesel. The crack will allow the injector to push diesel into the coolant.

What causes diesel engine to smoke exesively you have a 2003 Chevy truck 2500hd 4x4 6.6 diesel?

in appropriate injector's, clocked injector nozzle's, injector pump diaphram ,(due to dirt fuel)

Where can one buy an injector for a Ford Powerstroke diesel truck?

There are lots of places where someone can buy an injector for a Ford Powerstroke diesel truck. Some of these places are: Black Cloud Diesel and eBay.

How do remove C12 Cat injector?

You can remove the injector, on your C 12 Caterpillar diesel engine, by removing the injector rail. Remove the retaining nut and the injector will come out.

What is the best diesel injector cleaner?

One of the best diesel injector cleaners available is Fleetguard's Asphaltene Conditioner. The cleaner is a premium fuel additive and is made by Cummins.
