Checking injection quantity and spray pattern of injectors; checking for leaks
  Note
Fuel pressure OK; checking → Chapter.
–  Remove fuel rail (with injectors fitted) from intake manifold → Chapter. Fuel hoses remain connected.
–  Connect adapter cable -V.A.G 1598/13- to wiring harness for engine control unit. Do not connect engine control unit → Chapter.
Checking for leaks
–  Use leads from adapter set -V.A.G 1594C- to bridge contacts 1 and 65 at test box.
–  Switch on ignition.
t  The fuel pump should run.
–  Check injectors for leaks (visual check). When the fuel pump is running, no more than 1 to 2 drops a minute should escape from any one of the injectors.
–  If the fuel loss is greater, switch off the fuel pump (i.e. switch off the ignition) and renew the faulty injector → Chapter.
Checking injection quantity
–  Place the injector which is to be tested into measuring glass of injection rate tester -V.A.G 1602-.
–  Connect one of the injector contacts to engine earth using test lead and crocodile clip from auxiliary measuring set -V.A.G 1594C-.
–  Connect second injector contact to positive using remote control -V.A.G 1348/3A-, adapter cable -V.A.G 1348/3-2- and auxiliary lead.
–  Use leads from adapter set -V.A.G 1594C- to bridge contacts 1 and 65 at test box.
–  Switch on ignition.
t  The fuel pump should run.
–  Activate remote control -V.A.G 1348/3A- for 30 seconds.
–  Perform measurements on all injectors.
–  Once all four injectors have been actuated, place measuring glasses on a level surface.
t  Specification for each injector: 135 ± 10 ml
–  If the measured value of one or more injectors is outside the specification, shut off the fuel pump (switch off ignition) and renew the defective injector → Chapter.
–  If the measured values for all the injectors are outside the specification, check the fuel pressure → Chapter.
  Note
When checking the injection quantity, also check the spray pattern. The spray pattern should be the same for all injectors.
–  Install injectors together with fuel rail → Chapter.
