IMPORTANT:
- You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
- A fuel injector leak into the combustion chamber may result in mechanical damage to the cylinder. If any fuel spray comes out of a glow plug hole during the compression test, replace the fuel injector of the affected cylinder.
- If fuel vapor is emitted during the engine compression test, replace the affected fuel injector and inspect for fuel contamination. refer to Contaminants-in-Fuel DiagnosisΒ .
Perform the engine compression test. Refer to Engine Compression Test .
- If the compression indicated any of the cylinders had low compression, refer to Symptoms - Engine Mechanical .
- Failure to correctly identify the cylinder positions may result in the replacement of the wrong injector.
- During replacement of the injectors, inspect the inlet and outlet fittings for corrosion or contamination. Refer to Contaminants-in-Fuel DiagnosisΒ .
