Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 лис 2020
- In this video I'm showing you exactly how to do your own seals and washers for tye Land Rover Td5 injectors.
If your oil level is rising or if your car has trouble starting because of air in the fuel system it is likely that you need to change the injector washers and seals!
This is a detailed video showing how to do the job without any expensive tools!
This goes for the Land Rover Defender Td5 and also the Discovery Td5
Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for uploading a nice and easy-to-understand video of the steps. The 2005 110 station wagon started to emit white smoke, so I was planning to replace the injector washer and O-ring this week. Thank you.
Thanks! I hope this will help and solve your problem, good luck!
Nice job man!!!! You explain very well the whole process... I just learn something new...
Thank you! I'm glad it helped!! That's why i do it😁
I'm just doing my Disco TD5, great video to check I'm doing it correctly. Thanks
Awesome! Thank you for watching and good luck 😁
Excellent very simple and thorough well done cheers
Very well presented, good job! I did it myself, skipped on tightening properly one of the injectors, and i almost blew the engine. All is well now, but i learned the hard way. Your viewers have good instructions now!
Oh no! That sounds scary, what happened when it almost blew?
Thanks for your kind words😊
Great video!
Good video mate! Helps a lot. I'll have to do mine sometime soon no doubt being a 20 year old td5. Many of us Brits normally stay well clear of britpart parts though especialliy for things in the engine as they dont tend to last. I always go for Mann filters (the same that lr originally used) and i think for injector seals i would go to the main stealer.
Thanks!! Just showing it isn't that hard! With filming it took about 2 hours, never done it before😉
Oh yeah, I still haven't had much trouble with Britpart stuff but this job was quite easy to do so wouldn't care too much if the parts fail again..
Next time I'll buy genuine as well!
Good job! V jealous of the garage! Looking forward to seeing how you find the new Toyo tyres
Thanks man!!!😁
I'm sooo happy to have a garage now!
Yeah, I'll have to do some driving on them and see, I hope they're smoother than the BFG KM2s😉
Merci beaucoup, very helpfull
Brilliant, Thank you for taking the time to film, edit and share. Keep it up young man😎👍
Thank you! I hope this helps!
@@Td5Adventures it will Tomorrow. Thanks again ✌️😎👍
Brilliant video!! About to do this job on my disco this week. You’ve made it look easy!
Thank you for the feedback!! Hope you don't have any problems doing this job 😊
Ask me if you need any help!
Td5Adventures job went well. Disco is running great now!! Now tackling the many oil leaks
@@SniffingGlue Good job!!
@@SniffingGlue Surprising, but the front and rear camshaft seals are a real problem. Front one takes 5 minutes. Rear one is very difficult to access unless you're doing the injectors/changing the head gasket.
Well done and nice to see the progress on the Defender, I only changed the injector wiring harness by myself at the time I had a TD5. Also like the black rims with the white letters. Can't wait to see them on the car :-D
Thank you!!
Yeah the wiring harness is easy peasy😁👌🏻
Oh yeah, they look really cool! Maybe get some time on Wednesday to put them on!
bravo my good landy friend
Thank you!!
well done brother, if you have a video about acceleration system I need to understand that
Молодец парень.все детально .по существу.
If you look down at the small gap between the camshaft sprocket and the camshaft carrier, you will see marks numbered 1 - 5 on the camshaft as you rotate the engine. These marks line up with a shaped piece on the camshaft carrier. These numbered marks indicate the highest lift of the injector lobe on the camshaft and are used when adjusting adjusting the injector lash screws.
Thanks for the tip!!
Thank u so much for this.i am inloveeith landies
Hope this helps! Thanks for watching.
Great video. One question, did you push the accelerator down to the bottom while starting as is indicated when performing the empty diesel tank procedure?
Thank you! Yes I did but if you do the sequence of letting the fuel pump prime the system properly you almost don't need to push the gas pedal for it to start and run properly :)
Hola buenas noches desde argentina, donde va ubicado el conector de diagnóstico obd2?
I wish my Defender would fit in my garage, have to do everything outside, including gearbox changes!
Oh that's a shame!
I had to wait three years to find this garage and when putting it inside I have to let all the air out the tyres, fill the car with heavy stuff and remove the door handles off the garage door to get it in😅
Nice job, I'm a little bit scare to do it by my self on removing the injectors. The rest seems to be pretty easy. Which yould be the symptom that lets you know that this need to be replaced? thanks for the very detailed video.
You could always buy the injector removal tool which Land Rover recommends to remove the injectors 😊
Great video, keep up the good work 👍 are the Britpart washers still ok? I need to do mine and am just getting all the parts together
Thank you!
I haven't heard anything bad about them yet..
Good luck! Hope the videos might help😊
I must have been blessed with Britpart - their starter motor has been a dream - not quite the same weight as the original Denso, but has lasted four years so far without missing a beat! The copper injector washers have to be annealed - maybe that is the problem with some of the cheap ones out there?! (You can anneal them yourself)
Do you have to disconnect the fuel lines from the Fuel Pressure Regulator before removing injectors? Conflicting forum post's claim not doing so can lead to fuel where it shouldnt be and subsequent run-away?
Edit: so does disconnecting Fuel Pump fuse, then turning engine over with key negate the above?
I did not remove any fuel lines from the engine. There is no risk for runaway engine when it comes to diesel fuel. Runaway occurs when oil gets pushed into the combustion chamber, which can not happen when removing an injector👌🏼
Bonjour tu peux me dire tu sert a combién avec la clé dinamometre puis j'ai un bruit au niveaux du moteur je crois que c un injecteur je sais pas plus merci a toi pour tes vidéos.
I read somewhere that one of the reasons theTD5 head cracks is over tightening the injectors . When I did mine I followed rave however it was for a 10p engine
Yeah, the reasons can be many!
The cylinder head wall thickness surrounding the injectors can be an issue - bit thin. Turner Engineering supply an AMC head made in Spain. I hear it is very well made and superior to the LR Genuine head - it has thicker walls around the injectors - less liable to crack and let diesel into your oil
Great video! Just a question. What kind of trouble you had starting the engine? In my disco2 TD5 I´m having a kind of misfire on startup, like if some injectors where not priming correctly (some cilinders start correctly but some are failing), like if there is air trappted in the system. Pump was working fine and the pressure regulator was changed about 20K ago. Fuel filter also has only 10K. While running, car drives as usual without issues. Thanks!!
Thank you!
I had no problems starting, I only had diesel in my oil which can mean a bad injector seal or cracked cylinder head (which was my case). You probably have bad injector washers letting air leak into the fuel system. I'd really recommend you do this as part of diagnosing your problem. You will likely only have to do this and solve the problem straight away! Good luck :)
@@Td5Adventures Thanks mate! Awesome job!! ;-)
Well… I think I’ve solved the issue. Yesterday night I was under the car doing the oil change when I realised some kind of humidity in the bottom of the fuel pressure regulator. The fact is that there wasn’t an evident fuel leak. No drops and neither smell. But I was able to tight a bit the nut that holds the return pipe from the fuel cooler. Then my misfire issue on the startup disappeared!
So the lesson today is: even if everything seems ok, check it properly!! 😅
Thank you very much for your help!! Regards from Spain
Oh wow, I'm happy that you've found the problem!! Great job 👏
Привет.подскажи синий Дим из выхлопной что делать
A long reach Alan key makes easy work to remove the injectors
True! Works perfect too👌🏻
shouldn't they be tightened from middle out to each end?
The injectors themselves are tightened individually, the rocker shaft should be slowly tightened from the middle out to prevent it from snapping. I don't know what you meant exactly though😅
Hi. I have a problem with oil inside the fuel tank. Is it possible that the problem is in lack of injector?
Engine oil in the fuel tank?
That sounds very unlikely, oil must somehow get into the fuel return line, I don't know if that can be because of a bad head gasket, cracked cylinder head or bad injector seals. I'm guessing head gasket or cracked head.
Hi, I have just had my seals and washes replaced and have had a dramatic loss of power on my Defender td5 2005. The shop who did it for me has no idea why. Is there any advice you may offer. Appreciate any assistance
I'm sorry for the slow reply. I don't know why that might be. Is it possible they didn't do it right and you have leaking seals?
I’ve got the same issue to mate, just got disco back from inj seals being replaced and it’s gutless.
@@TheFestival500 get this, I had another shop take out my injectors and had them tested. The report said that they were so bad there was no way my vehicle ever ran properly. His guess was that the first shop swapped my injectors. Unfortunately no way to prove it. Had to get refurbished ones, now Landy back to normal. Big school fees for me.
No way that’s terrible!! Will hopefully get mine out this week and sent off for testing. Glad you managed to get it sorted 👍
Mine wont start help
I do need more info to help you!
What size are the rocker bolts?
The bolts holding the rocker shaft in place are 10mm, the locking nuts for the injector adjustment on the rockers are 13mm.
@@Td5Adventures thank you thank you, stay well sir.
@@breakit46 thanks for watching! You too!
@@Td5Adventures Can I ask, did you unhook fuel lines while doing the washers and o rings? I have injector rocker shaft off, doing cylinder at a time, car is outside and weather is grim so doing bits each day. Stuck on finding pliers to make a hook lever like you did, I have patience tho. Getting paddock spares viscous clutch spanner pair tomorrow but will against weather. I was curious if you did unhook fuel lines? Thanks again for all your help.
Hey! I've done lots of jobs outside as well so I know your struggle.. keep it going and you'll get there!
No, you don't need to unhook any fuel lines to do this job. The fuel runs inside the cylinder head to the injectors so keep all the external lines in place to get the least amount of dirt in them👌🏽
Bad choice in the brand of washers and o'rings. Always use genuine ones. About injector codes, even if the places are changed, the engine will always fire and work perfectly.
there is no need to be coded
Great video, thanks for sharing. I have to do the same with my TD5 - I agree with the use of Genuine parts. Doing all that again because of cheap parts would be sole destroying!!!
Noticed something similar; i was able to start and drive with injectors from my discovery using a defender td5 ECM
Not strictly true, it will fire but may run rough and misfire. The code tells the ecu the characteristics of the injector which are determined when a new injector is tested at the factory. The code tells the ecu how to vary the timing/duration of spray ,without this information the cylinders wont be balanced
Nice, yes you can swap them out if you code the injectors!
Yeah as long as you use the same five injectors the location should not matter, or is that not correct?
how many kangaroos per apple cider is 32 nm for the Aussies playing along?
I have no idea what unit you use down under but you should be using Newton meters😉
You call this detailed but you don't show how to use the timing marks on the cam to set the injector bumps clearance?
It was a good video up until that point.
wtf is that beat. Cant watch. Shame.
Did you at least remember to rotate engine so cam lobes are out of the way when trying to pull out injectors?? Those injectors come out VERY EASY, unless they are hitting the cam lobes 🐺
