REMOVING CARBON DAM
1. Fuel Injection nozzle. 2. Carbon dam. 3. Seal.
Remove carbon dam (2) with needle nose pliers and
remove seal (3) from the nozzle.
CAUTION
Do not use a steel brush or a wire wheel to
clean the nozzle body or the nozzle tip. Use
of these tools can cause a small reduction of
orifice size, and this will cause a large
reduction in engine horsepower. Too much
use of the 8S2258 Brass Wire Brush will also
remove the coating that Is on the nozzle for
protection.
Clean the groove for carbon seal dam (2) and the
body of the nozzle below the groove with the 8S2258
Brass Wire brush (M). Remove the carbon, but be sure
not to use the brush enough to cause damage to the
body of the nozzle.
NOTE: A change in color in the area below the groove
is normal and does not affect the body of the nozzle.
