Low-Pressure System (Fuel System), Check for Leaks

  Remove

  Install

Attach Vacuum Pump MKM-667-A, in conjunction with Hose MKM-667-10, to the oil leak line.

  Inspect

Charge oil leak line either with a pressure of 0.8 bar (vacuum pressure) or 1.0 bar (overpressure). If a pressure drop is noted, proceed as follows:

  • Carry out a visual inspection of all oil leak lines and if necessary replace the oil leak lines.
  • Carry out the pressure test described above on all injection nozzle traverses. If the pressure drops: Replace seal ring between injection nozzle and injection nozzle traverse - see operation "Injection Nozzle Traverse, Remove and Install".
  • After completing the repair work, carry out another pressure test.

Note:   Before assembling components of the intake system (hoses, connections, etc.), they must be cleaned of any possible contamination (grease, oil, etc.). When tightening the hose clamps, be sure to observe exactly the tightening torque of 3.5 Nm / 2.6 lbf. ft.

Caution

It is only ensured that the intake system is free of leaks, thus ensuring operational safety of the engine, if the hose clamps are tightened correctly to the prescribed tightening torque.

  Install

Attach new oil leak line to fuel feed line connection. Attach front cable trough.

On the X 20 DTL: Attach charge-air hose to charge-air pipe and upper part of inlet manifold - tightening torque 3.5 Nm.

Install engine cover on cylinder head cover.

Caution

Always replace oil leak lines following removal. Bleed fuel system with KM-948 once it has been opened.
