High Pressure Pump
High Pressure Pump
The fuel system is under pressure! Before opening the high pressure components of the fuel injection system, the pressure must be reduced to a residual pressure. Refer to => [ High Side Fuel Pressure, Releasing ] Service and Repair.
• The high pressure pump can only be removed and installed when the engine is cold.
• When installing, make sure that no dirt enters the fuel system.
• Catch leaking fuel with a cloth.
• Always replace the O-ring and the connection.
• Always install the high pressure fuel lines so that they are free of tension.
Removing

Installing
• To insert the high pressure pump, the cam follower must be at its lowest point.
• If the same or a used high pressure pump is installed, replace the fuel supply line connections (high pressure side). Refer to => [ High Pressure Pump Overview ] High Pressure Pump Overview.
• For the correct tightening specifications, refer to => [ High Pressure Pump Overview ] High Pressure Pump Overview.
- Replace the O-ring for the high pressure pump.

- Rotate the crankshaft until the cam follower is at the lowest point.
- Install the high pressure pump into the vacuum pump.
- Tighten the bolts hand tight.
- Replace the connections on the high pressure pump.
- Tighten the bolts crosswise to the required torque.
- Tighten the fuel supply line union nut by hand, align it so there is no tension and then tighten it to specification.
