hi mate

 

2 ways to change an injector,

 

no.1 pull the upper plenum, and all the ancillaries, nightmare:rant::eek:

then easy to change the faulty injector.

 

no.2 use the dremel method, blend out a little of the upper plenum, enough to get a screwdriver in and remove the faulty injector, a bit dangerous but a quick job:):)

 

both methods are on here, do a search and u will find both.

 

HTH

:confused:hi mate thank you for that one are injectors a common problem on these mate

No there not but make sure it is an injector gone down. With the engine running put a long screwdriver onto each injector with the handle end to yor ear, you should hear it clicking as it fires. No click = duff injector. taking the plenum off is not difficult if you have had an EGR bypass, otherwise getting to the 2 bolts either side will require what they call 'crows feet sockets', otherwise they are very difficult to undo. The rest is straightforward. Take pics before you start and along the way as it will help when re-assembling with all the pipes and the engine wiring loom that does the plugs and injectors. I did this and found it very useful.

:dance:hi mate started her up this morning and she is back on full song done 100 mororway miles at a stedy 90 plus and she is ok i think it may be a weak spark plug so i think another set of plugs are in order thank you all for your help in this matter
