FUEL INJECTOR(for Direct Injection) INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSTALL FUEL INJECTOR SEAL


    1. A01XR38C04
      *a Area to be Cleaned

      Apply engine conditioner to the area shown in the illustration. Using a piece of cloth, clean carbon deposits from the direct fuel injector assembly and its grooves.

      Note


      • Do not clean the tip of the direct fuel injector assembly.

      • Do not use a wire brush to clean the direct fuel injector assembly.

      • If a direct fuel injector assembly is dropped or the tip of a direct fuel injector assembly is struck, replace it with a new one.

    2. A01XQUWC03
      *a SST (Guide)
      *b Chamfer

      Apply engine oil to the direct fuel injector assembly contact surface of SST (guide), then attach SST (guide) to the direct fuel injector assembly with the chamfer facing the tip of the direct fuel injector assembly as shown in the illustration.

      SST
      09260-39021   ( 09261-03020 )
    3. A01XR4BC03
      *1 Fuel Injector Seal
      *a SST (Holder)
      *b Correct
      *c Incorrect

      Install a new fuel injector seal to SST (holder).

      SST
      09260-39021   ( 09261-03011 )

      Note

      Be careful not to install the fuel injector seal to SST (holder) at an angle. Doing so will stretch the fuel injector seal.

    4. A01XQY1C03
      *a SST (Holder)
      *b SST (Guide)

      Install SST (holder) with the fuel injector seal to the tip of the direct fuel injector assembly. Slide the fuel injector seal downward into the direct fuel injector assembly groove with your fingers as shown in the illustration.

      SST
      09260-39021   ( 09261-03011, 09261-03020 )

      Tech Tips

      Check that the fuel injector seal is seated in the direct fuel injector assembly groove as shown in the illustration.

    5. A01XQKJC04
      *a SST (Guide)

      Slowly slide SST (guide) toward the tip of the direct fuel injector assembly. When the direct fuel injector assembly contact surface of SST (guide) aligns with the fuel injector seal as shown in the illustration, hold the position for 5 seconds or more to fully seat the fuel injector seal into the direct fuel injector assembly groove.

      SST
      09260-39021   ( 09261-03020 )

      Note

      Be sure that the fuel injector seal is not pinched between SST (guide) and the edge of the direct fuel injector assembly groove. Replace the fuel injector seal if it becomes damaged.

      Tech Tips


      • Set SST (guide) so that its bottom surface is flush with the fuel injector seal.

      • If it is difficult to slide SST (guide) upward, slowly wiggle it from side to side while sliding it up the direct fuel injector assembly little by little.

    6. A01XQDDC03
      *a Normal
      *b Protruding
      *c Deformed
      *d Correct
      *e Incorrect

      After installing the fuel injector seals, check that they are not scratched, deformed or protruding from the direct fuel injector assembly groove.

      Note

      If a fuel injector seal is scratched, deformed or protruding from the groove, replace it with a new one.

      Note


      • Make sure that there is no foreign matter or damage inside the direct fuel injector assembly installation holes (fuel delivery pipe LH and fuel delivery pipe RH).

      • Do not allow gasoline to get on the O-rings or inside the installation holes.

      • If it is difficult to insert the direct fuel injector assembly, apply new engine oil to the chamfer of the direct fuel injector assembly installation hole of the fuel delivery pipe LH and fuel delivery pipe RH.
