Jet profile and leakage: testing
Special tools and workshop equipment required
t  Torque spanner -V.A.G. 1331- (5...50 Nm)
t  Auxiliary measurement set -V.A.G. 1594 A-
t  Digital potentiometer -V.A.G. 1630-
t  Measuring glass

Test condition
l  The fuel pressure should be OK, test → Chapter, Fuel pressure regulator and retaining pressure: testing.
Test process
   
–  Remove the camshaft housing cover -arrows-.
–  Remove the air filter → Fig..
  E15-0065
–  Detach the 4-contacts connector from the coolant temperature sender -G62- with the sender for coolant temperature gauge -G2--arrow-.
  N24-1053
–  Connect digital potentiometer -V.A.G. 1630- to contacts 1 + 3 of the connector, using auxiliary leads of the -V.A.G. 1594 A-, and set the connected side to 15 kΩ.
  E24-0074
–  Remove the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure regulator -arrow-.
–  From the intake manifold, remove the fuel distributor complete with all the injectors (the fuel hoses remain attached) → Item.
  N24-0741
–  Place a small recipient under the injector to be tested and remove the connectors from the other injectors.
–  Have another person operate the starter motor. The injector jet should pulsate.
–  Repeat the test at the other injectors checking that only the injector to be tested is connected.
–  Next, test the injectors for leakage. Not more than 2 drops/min should escape
If the loss of fuel is greater:
–  Switch off the ignition.
–  Replace the faulty injector → Item
The injectors are installed in the reverse order, taking into account the following:
t  The O-rings of all the injectors must be replaced and the new ones lubricated with a bit of clean engine oil.
t  Position the fuel distributor with the injectors immobilised on the intake manifold and bolt it evenly.
  N24-0742
–  Plug digital potentiometer -V.A.G. 1630- into the connector contacts with auxiliary leads -V.A.G. 1594 C- and set the connected side to 15 kΩ.
