Technical injector bolt

[kevin sweet]

Hi guys , I have a Ducato 2007 3.0 Diesel, one of my injector bolts snapped and injector blew out of head, does this bolt go down as far as the cylinder head or only into the camshaft covers please. thanks

Kevin,

Unless your engine is very different from other diesels, the injectors will be inserted into the cylinder head, and fixed to it. The camshaft cover will be separate, and of relatively light construction. It will perhaps be shaped to fit round the injectors, and their fixings.

i had 3 bolts snap in the head when replacing the injectors the garage managed to remove them and refit with helicoils but they are not strong enough and failed blowing the injectors out after a few days they then got a company in to fit TIMESERTS no issues after they were fitted
