Check engine pressure loss
Warning: When
working on the Common Rail system, wait for one minute after
switching off the engine. The system reduces the pressure
automatically.
Important: When
working on the fuel system, cleanliness is vital as even very small
particles of dirt can lead to faults in engine operation or in the
fuel system. Seal open fuel connections with suitable sealing plugs
1) . Sealing plugs must only be used once.
