Done mine last week, no need to remove any fuel lines only injector metal pipes.and the injector over flow return pipes, as a precaution if your doing the injector seals do the return pipe o rings, its easy while your there, even if there not leaking., DO NOT Loose the little clips... plastic milk bottol lids fit nice in the intake ports.
Orbital Tube hi what’s the that box name ? I have fiesta my mechanic said me oil linking from that black box so if I need to change it how much could cost me? Thanks 😊
1st class job easy described step by step. CAR drives like new now, had 1 bad injector only running on 3.but 2nd hand injector cylinder 4 fitted now and drives the best. Thank you for your knowledge.
Thanks for a great video. Also yes you can remove the injectors without disconnecting all the fuel lines to the fuel filter. That said still requires a little bleeding. Firstly by removing the final fuel return from the injector. Then when you get the fuel to there remove the return, the fuel filter line and pump until you get no air coming out just fuel. The car then started for me on the fifth or sixth cranking of the engine.
Hi thank you for posting this video. I just changed seals in my 53 plate Fiesta, now it works great. I didn't take the fuel filter off, and it started straight away.
I did this repair 2 years ago and it needs doing again. Will leave to the spring. I had a leak after doing them and had to take it apart again; even after being really diligent. I would only do the injectors leaking, since removing a non leaking one may give you a leak on reinstall. You may get one with a minor leak and you could try just re torqing it to fix the leak; if the bolt does tighten a bit you are probably good; if it doesn't then it needs taking out. You can make a tool out of a coat hanger to get the old washers out. Dont use tissue for cleaning in the injector holes; bits of tissue come off and could end up in the engine. Finally it takes ages to take it all apart, cleanup and reassemble; do it on a weekend when the weather is fine and start it on the Saturday! The rubber bulb on the left is for refilling fuel; but some models dont have this. Fuel can leak from the rubber pipes/orings, so check these. You can block the egr valve with a plate that stops crap being passed around again. I had a leak on the metal pipes feeding the injectors; i got a second hand set off ebay for not much money. The rings are just guides to center the injectors; as advised the copper washers make the seal. Finally check all pipework/hoses for breaks/splits/leaks, etc; you would not want a break down or engine fire so prevention is the best course. Check your turbo for wear; i rebuilt mine using a £20 kit off ebay.
Alastair Munro thanks for your comments some very valid points. I believe Ebr blanking plate can only be done on earlier models due to the ecu having a sensor to detect airflow but they are a good job. Tissue was just kitchen paper and worked ok as i needed to get the injector seat as clean as possible before putting the washer in. A clean rag or cloth would work well too.
Hey there if you haven't already done so could you consider giving my channel a subscription. UA-cam are trying to kill my channel off but I'm only 120 subs short of keeping it going. ua-cam.com/users/orbitaaltube
Thankyou mate this helped me a lot I’m waiting on a fuel return like as it broke when I was removing it my car had about 3 inches of carbon everywhere so not as bad as yours just made it harder to clean up haha
Very helpful, I'v just changed the fuel leak of line, as I've already replaced fuel filter and fuel line. I've also replaced the rocker cover. Helpful video 👌🏽👍🏽
@@orbitaaltube I'm taking the fuel injectors out today, did you send them off to be cleaned?? I have the replacement parts needed for the injectors. But do the injectors need to go back in from where they came from? As in 1 to 4?
Yes we have a local specialist that took them apart and checked the spray pattern. I believe they also checked the pressure at which they trigger. (I think)
@@orbitaaltube okay, do you remember how much that cost and what Company cleaned them? Thanks for replying, much appreciated. As there's not much information on a mazda 2 antares... AKA ford fusion 1.4 tdci.
@@mikeb3315 it was a company here in Ireland that don't exist anymore. I honestly can't remember the cost. It might have something like 50 or 100 quid. If you Google for injector specialists and ring around in your local area you might find someone.
these cars are equipped with a manual pump that you use in order to repressurise the fuel lines after you work on the fuel filter. i changed mine, pumped the fuel a few times and started at the first try, and no hicups ever since so dont worry about this.
I removed those 8 bolts and those 2 two in the back to get head cover out and I unscrew 2 bolts where is that pipe, but something is still holding a head cover in that corner where is that pipe and I can't find what I spend like 3hours trying to find that one screw or something but no luck.
Those bolts are the only bolts. Had me looking for something else still connected but nothing there. It needs a bit of leverage to get it to come away. I used a length of metal bar in one of the gaps under the plastic cover (between the manifold openings) and pulled upwards. Check you're not putting your lever on anything important before levering.
Hi, Thank you for info, just little tip `I found it more easy to disconnect the very end of the return house,then undo the bolt holding down the injector ` then I remove the injector with the metal clamp that held down the injector` then I removed the spring pin to release that part of the return hose thats in the injector, then I place the bolt back in to cover hole, I found it more clumsy and fiddly to remove pin while injector was in, not to much room or vission to get at the back to pull spring pin out,
Try doing it without removing the fuel filter housing or disrupting those lines if you can - makes starting the car much easier. Also if you know a local mechanic they may else be able to lend you a seat cutting kit as well.

Ford Fiesta is was very nice and most selling sedan car in Indian market with 1.4 litres duratorq tdci engine after taking a test drive of hyundai accent CRDi which I and my best friend dhruv we really did not like we purchased fiesta in 2006 because ride quality build quality of this car was better and engine is powerful
hi orbital tube thanks very much for this very informative video it really helped me. as you correctly said i had difficulty in starting so a little tip which i hope helps anybody else .i got a large syringe and fitted a small tube on the end which was the same size as the diesel filter hose connections .i removed the diesel filter hoses then i filled the syringe with diesel and pushed it into diesel filter using the syringe once diesel came out of diesel filter i knew it was full reconnected hoses and hey presto car started . hopefully this will help anybody else ! thanks again mate for taking the time
Doing a one at the minute got new bolts as well as last mechanic screwed the one that was leaking, so I'm assuming stretched the bolt, son who a mechanic says to replace all injector clamp bolts as their know to break in all fords.great video, cheers for sharing.
2022 I'm taking this tutorial and man is easy my fiesta doesn't have any bolts behind that plastic cover there are some metallic holes but it just came out once the anexed bolts are off I also didn't took out the fuel pump in right I just left in place and only disconnected the lines. Now I'm taking the circlips off lmao 🤣 they strong need to find some pliers hehe
Orbital Tube I did this job today & it didn't cost me a penny. No need to disturb the fuel system, just undo the bracket. Injector 4 was starting to blow & I just nipped up the clamp. I tightened all to be on the safe side. Not over tightened mind you. I already had a set of glow plugs I bought months ago so this was the ideal time for them to go in. Put all the old seals back & away it went. Drives and starts lovely now. These cars are nice & cheap to run, but the layout makes them time consuming to work on, as no doubt you know all about. At least I saved a few quid, & I do secretly enjoy a bit of car maintenance!
Good video, but one thing I would like to see, How the electrical connectors and fuel line connections come apart, some you push the sides, some you prise open with a small screwdriver, they are all different, it's a hassle but showing how each clip unclips would be handy,
Had filmed this on an old sony mobile phone back in the day, didnt even have a tripod at the time so couldnt show all of the action. Using a tripod these days and it helps a lot. (allows for two handed work). Check out some of my more recent videos for how my setup looks now.
@@orbitaaltube understood. Thanks. Most people have some knowledge on how to do things. But it's the detail that comes from actually doing the job they don't have "Like this connector pipe has two green tabs that have to be pushed inwards to release the pipe" or "this plastic tab has to be pushed away from the body of the connector block" all in all your car maintenence videos are better than most on UA-cam. Keep up the filming. We'll done.
WHEN REM9VING the little feed pipe to injector support the bottom of the plastic elbow with grips hold it still, then twist and pull the pipe off. No need to mess around with those little clips! 😀👍
Hello, thank you very much for the video and then on this type of engine (1.4 tdci) what is the order of the injectors??? Is number 1 on the gearbox or timing belt side? THANKS
A couple of my injector holes are filled with crud. I can see you’ve plugged these holes, Am I going to cause trouble if some of the crud goes down into the holes?
The holes are plugged to stop both the crud going down into the intake and also to avoid any parts or tools falling into the engine. It's always safer to spend five minutes blocking up the open ports that spending hours trying to fish something back out again. (speaking from experience)
Where is the fuel rail pressure sensor located on these engines? I've been told its underneath the fuel filter housing but what is under there looks nothing like what a replacement part looks like!
Very very usefull video but, how can I do to have the Nm (tightening torque) for the 8 aiming cover bolts and oil drain plug bolt? I have got the workshop manual for my car, but there aren't that informations
Hi. Thanks for the video. I’m getting a strong diesel smell inside the cabin and also a slight drip underneath but can’t tell where it’s coming from, would injector seals cause an external drip? Thanks
hi there can you tell me how to replace the membrane of the pcv valve ,,,same as in this engine of the video...(my is mazda 2 1.4hdi/2008)valve look the same....regards
Don't you need to replace the high pressure fule lines that come into the injectors? They are made out of soft metal so after reusing them the seals might not be perfect. I'm just asking this, because i want to make this repair myself, but i'm worried that i get more leaks after the repair than before.
That is a good point. I didn't replace them but it might be a good idea if the parts are not expensive? Its very difficult to see what is leaking and from where due to the engine design once the airbox is back on the car. Crap design. To be honest it might make more sense to get a mechanic to do this job than doing it at home.
They are pretty expensive, around 120 pounds for the 4 cylinders in total where i live. I bought my fiesta used around 1,5 years ago, and it's leaking diesel a little around the fuel lines, i guess the fuel lines were re-used in the past, but i'll just leave it the way it is for now, there are no symptoms, only the leaks. Diesel is not flamable so it shouldn't do any harm.
Hi, thanks for this awesome tutorial. One suggestion, cause i have changed my diesel filter several times you can even leave the diesel fuel inside, mine Fiesta has this little pump up on the right near water cantainer if you charge that rubber pump it will pump diesel inside the filter and all hoses then the car starts normaly, if you dont do that car doesnt start, i think thats the reason
Maybe cause mine Fiesta is not UK version, you dont have this rubber pump, mine is actually on top from that left plate with 5 bolts you've been talking about
images.app.goo.gl/C8vDGnzMuru8tUGw7 This is how it looks, and yes even on the link its says(Italian) "car doesn't start after diesel filter replacement"
Great video can i please ask. I need to replace 2 injectors on exactley the same car. Will i need a special injector removal tool? If so what is it plse. Thank you
As long as they aren't caked in carbon you shouldn't need a tool. There's a good video by a channel called Bodgit and leggit about injector removal using a tool if you want to look that up.
Hi mate tell me something are you missing anything about after the rocker bolts are out. I have follwed your instuctions to the letter but my rocker cover feels as if there is a bolt still connect even after taking the two 10mm bolts out the back. Did you have any resistance when you moved the rocker itself as you do not show this part
Do you recommend putting a new gasket on the engine head cover after you’ve removed it? Because I know remove the engine cover can cause the gasket to crumble or bend, but I don’t know if it happens to everyone.
So is the root cause of this failure really the copper washers or is it incorrectly torqued or wrongly specified bolts? Heard reports of them failing 6 months after just replacing all the washers.
Is there a way to do this job without taking out the diesel filter ? I want to avoid putting an air lock in the fuel system so that it starts up straight away
Just multiple attempts. It is tricky. I remember trying to mount the rubber rings on the mainfold and trying it that way too. Can't remember which way worked to be honest. Too long ago now. But you will get there if you keep trying.
@@orbitaaltube I eventually got it back on but snapped the small plastic bit that fits into an oil well in the block. Is this something that is required? I'm thinking it's maybe the oil pickup for the turbo?
Just followed this and was really careful regarding any debris going into the engine, I had number one injector chuffing, I replace all four washers and plastic guides and now the car is black smoking and down on power, Any ideas? Thanks
Had no bother removing them but I believe a previous mechanic had tried the same repair sometime before I did it, which probably made it easier to remove them.
@@orbitaaltube great, thanks for the reply. Makes a change from my old 2.2 diesel Honda Accord. Advice there was just don't even bother, and even a mechanic will probably damage them getting them out
Anyone know what the M4-M16 Left and Right Thread Double End Studs Bolt Screw Rod go my mrs sold me her car and she done as shown in video and now shes telling me there are a few bolts from the car not put back in
I think i have the old leak off hoses in a box somewhere which i will try and measure for u. the part is actually plastic so its possible the plastic could be cracked or that the rubber hose itself could be leaking as well.
Thanks! The rubber hoses seems to be completely dry so there will be the plastic also the suspected part in this case the whole hose system should be replaced. I would check the O rings firstly.
Hi, Thanks for Sharing your Video ,I have the same issue as yours. So before i tempt to work on this project, just need to know , how did you get the injectors out? With a puller or something else? Or any Technics you use for it?Hoping for a prompt reply. Kind Regards Hanif
Hi sir I have to do this job to my motor ,I bought a set of cutters for the injectors, but it never come with a info sheet that would of shown me what cutter to use, what size and shape cutter would I use for my motor I have a ford fiesta 1.4 TDCI 2008, zetec on document but ford say its Duratorq don`t know what MK it would come under ,its a 3 door hatch ,my model does not have the fuel bleeder pump on the side like i see with many models that look like mine,
@@orbitaaltube i mean circular in circumference but would cut flat bottom where the washer would seat, I suppose ill wait until ill pull the injector out then do measurements, thank 'you for your replies
Petite question , j'ai une Ford Fiesta 1.4l HDI de 68 ch (même moteur que 206 ) et je viens de changer la vanne EGR car ma voiture tremblait au démarrage et des à coups avec perte puissance et défaut ODB vanne egr gelée .Dois-je la passer à la balise. Pour calibrer calculateur ou autres . Car elle tremble encore au démarrage mais roule normalement. Merci pour ta réponse.
For the mk 7 which seems to be the same engine bar a couple of ancillary differences it is 4Nm + a further 70⁰ turn. I used a protractor to get this angle with 70⁰ in line with me to make it easier to see when target had been reached.
Sar. I want to ask ? My car is same model. I clean my car injector. All is ok but one PROBLEM when i try to close valve cover last 2 hidden score i can't fix . Pls help me .
Hi there, I dont understand the question fully as I know what you mean by hidden score. But if you are having issues with replacing the valve cover again, its difficult to make it fit down into the ports again. I think I had to put the round seals on the valve cover first before fitting and it took a few tries to get it to fit "snug". Good luck. It's many years since I did this work so I cant remember exactly. Please try a few times to fit and you will get there eventually.
I have a Ford Fusion with the same engine. (Norway) After a OBD check i got this message: "P1204-70 Cylinder #4 Injector Circuit Open/Shorted" can this be fixed with a replacement of injector nr 4? And what side is injector number 4? (Sorry for my bad english) 😊
hi after a day of haveing injecter seal done there's a vibration noise comeing form around the senter dashboard any ideas or just take it back to fords .if u can help plz iam at the end of my tether
does it change when you rev the engine? I'd look to see if there are pipes at back of engine touching/vibrating against the car that shouldn't be. if not just take it back to Ford to sort.
hi like ur vid were can i find glow plugs on a ford fiesta plz can u do a vid . thank u . my injecter have gone a to take it to fords is £500 then £270 for glow plugs .plz can u help me on how to fit glow pluges
+Darren Johnson Hey Darren, It might be cheaper to bring the car to an independent garage if you can get a recommendation from someone local to you as they will definitely be cheaper than the Ford dealership. The glow plugs are at the back of the engine below the intake manifold but they can be a bugger to get out as they might be sized and need a bit of heat to get them out. If they are seized and they break they are an absolute pain in the ass to remove. Its a lot of work to do this, to be honest its easier to take it to a good garage if you can find one.
Hi Orbital, hope you can reply my comment. Did you also change the rocker cover gasket? I need to change mine, so I assume I'll have to go thorough this whole process. And will I really need to unscrew the coolant tank and the belt cover as well? I'd rather skip this step if possible. :) Thanks mate. Great video otherwise.
Hi great video. Anyone know if a bad seal can cause a whooshing sound when accelerating. Car doesnt loose power from what I can tell. Just purchased car but seems ok just when accelerating there is a loud air noise. No smell in the cabin.
ptek2004 hi . I had a whooshing sound on my focus 2lt dtci and worried it might be turbo related and expensive but it turned out to be a perished rubber hose connector that comes off the throttle body and then down to the bottom of the engine maybe intercooler im not sure? But theres 2 of these and after removing hose and adjusting the rubber conector the whooshing noise disappeared so might be worth checking the big hoses off of throttle body before going down the slippery sloped injector route buddy. Hope this helps . Paddy :-)

Hi I had an Injector changed. Since then I have had fuel smell in the cabin. I just saw today fuel on the gearbox . What can it be. I don't want to spend extra money on this car
The manifold is a nightmare the 4 big black oring became bigger with time and its difficult to extract the manifold. No one say that you have to replace that 4 o ring otherwise you will be not able to pust the inlet inside
At 10:10 minutes you disconnected a plastic pipe and you said it was a fuel line, It isn't it is the Vacuum line from the Vacuum Pump at the end of the cam box to the brake master cylinder servo/brake booster.

Ask some friends and get some recommendations for a mechanic to do the work that would be local to you as I don't work on cars professionally. Get a few quote if there are a few mechanics that are local.
I've a 2008 Peugeot 207 1.4 hdi,I think these are the same engine? Mine has been making the chuffing noise on and off for a few weeks, mainly in very cold mornings. How bad can this end up, and how much could a garage charge to fix this?
sugar magnolia no problem. Been out & about in mine today & it is running better & quieter than ever. Tighten all four while you are in there , and new glow plugs are a good shout as you need to take the rocker cover off to do those, so they get overlooked. I re used all o- rings & used a smear of silicone sealant on rocker cover gasket. Wasn't any need to piss about with draining the fuel filter, just undo the bracket & move to the side. Same with coolant reservoir. Make sure you take off the cam belt cover before lifting away the rocker cover. Took me about six hours with cleaning & all that, but if I had to do it again I could do it in half the time. Hope this helps. Also on the cam belt cover, there is a shitty protruding screw housing in the middle of it. Do yourself a favour & cut it off with a hacksaw. You'll see what I mean when you try to refit it.

8:17 there is a manuel fuel pump at the left side of the engine, you can pump it about 10 times to get the fuel to the engine manually.
The pump on the side black with yellow pipes,how long would i have to pump it as I did it for about 2min and nothing just won't fire up just crank .
Until the pump goes hard.

Yes the injector bolts can break. In my case it was because there was crud down in the bolt hole already.
I find that coke bottle lids turned upside down and pushed a little way into the inlet ports stops anything nasty falling in..

Now I'm taking the circlips off lmao 🤣 they strong need to find some pliers hehe
It's a fiddly job to work on this engine. Good luck.
little tip if the carbon is really bad, pour some coke on it and leave it overnight, will soften it right up!
Really easy to understand and follow great footage Aswell! Thanks!!! this vid really helped me out!
You are welcome
many thanks, here's hoping I can 'cherry pick' just some parts of this to ensure my 206 1.4HDi Injectors are tight
Note--????-The coolant flask on later model is held in place slightly different and has two pipes attached.??
Hi guys I have footage ready for part 2 just need to edit it.
Hello Orbital tube, Would it be possible for you to share a link for the Hins manual that has been referred in the Video.
Orbital Tube I did this job today & it didn't cost me a penny. No need to disturb the fuel system, just undo the bracket. Injector 4 was starting to blow & I just nipped up the clamp. I tightened all to be on the safe side. Not over tightened mind you. I already had a set of glow plugs I bought months ago so this was the ideal time for them to go in. Put all the old seals back & away it went. Drives and starts lovely now. These cars are nice & cheap to run, but the layout makes them time consuming to work on, as no doubt you know all about. At least I saved a few quid, & I do secretly enjoy a bit of car maintenance!
Hello and part 3?
There was no part 3 as I just did the reverse of everything in part 1 and 2
Hi great video, can you or anyone answer in the comments. Please tell me if its possible to do a injector leak off test on these diesel engines?
Many thanks for the tips, that's my weekend sorted then
Good video, but one thing I would like to see, How the electrical connectors and fuel line connections come apart, some you push the sides, some you prise open with a small screwdriver, they are all different, it's a hassle but showing how each clip unclips would be handy,
Had filmed this on an old sony mobile phone back in the day, didnt even have a tripod at the time so couldnt show all of the action. Using a tripod these days and it helps a lot. (allows for two handed work). Check out some of my more recent videos for how my setup looks now.
@@orbitaaltube understood. Thanks. Most people have some knowledge on how to do things. But it's the detail that comes from actually doing the job they don't have "Like this connector pipe has two green tabs that have to be pushed inwards to release the pipe" or "this plastic tab has to be pushed away from the body of the connector block" all in all your car maintenence videos are better than most on UA-cam. Keep up the filming. We'll done.
WHEN REM9VING the little feed pipe to injector support the bottom of the plastic elbow with grips hold it still, then twist and pull the pipe off. No need to mess around with those little clips! 😀👍
Good tip thanks for this.
Hello, thank you very much for the video and then on this type of engine (1.4 tdci) what is the order of the injectors??? Is number 1 on the gearbox or timing belt side? THANKS
9.09 i see no red getting used ha ha good video
Seems big job ? I got to clean injectors .. out as car misfiring juddering Symptoms Redex might cure it ?
Are you asking if redex might cure a misfire. Only way to find out is to try it if you think the injectors are blocked.
A couple of my injector holes are filled with crud. I can see you’ve plugged these holes, Am I going to cause trouble if some of the crud goes down into the holes?
The holes are plugged to stop both the crud going down into the intake and also to avoid any parts or tools falling into the engine. It's always safer to spend five minutes blocking up the open ports that spending hours trying to fish something back out again. (speaking from experience)
Where is the fuel rail pressure sensor located on these engines? I've been told its underneath the fuel filter housing but what is under there looks nothing like what a replacement part looks like!
Very very usefull video but, how can I do to have the Nm (tightening torque) for the 8 aiming cover bolts and oil drain plug bolt?
I have got the workshop manual for my car, but there aren't that informations
No idea I no longer have this vehicle sorry.
Hi. Thanks for the video. I’m getting a strong diesel smell inside the cabin and also a slight drip underneath but can’t tell where it’s coming from, would injector seals cause an external drip? Thanks
hi there can you tell me how to replace the membrane of the pcv valve ,,,same as in this engine of the video...(my is mazda 2 1.4hdi/2008)valve look the same....regards
I have no idea sir, I have not done that job.
How did you remove and replace the thick black plastic seal m8 as I have had trouble in past and now failed mot due to it
Excelent video! Do you have the manual for this engine?
It was a book I bought from the company Haynes but I sold it after I sold the car.
@@orbitaaltubeThank you!
Don't you need to replace the high pressure fule lines that come into the injectors? They are made out of soft metal so after reusing them the seals might not be perfect. I'm just asking this, because i want to make this repair myself, but i'm worried that i get more leaks after the repair than before.
That is a good point. I didn't replace them but it might be a good idea if the parts are not expensive? Its very difficult to see what is leaking and from where due to the engine design once the airbox is back on the car. Crap design. To be honest it might make more sense to get a mechanic to do this job than doing it at home.
They are pretty expensive, around 120 pounds for the 4 cylinders in total where i live. I bought my fiesta used around 1,5 years ago, and it's leaking diesel a little around the fuel lines, i guess the fuel lines were re-used in the past, but i'll just leave it the way it is for now, there are no symptoms, only the leaks. Diesel is not flamable so it shouldn't do any harm.
Carpenter why not use plumbers ptfe tape on the end of the unions?
the soft lines are the return lines and not the high pressure fuel lines...
Great video, well explained, cheers, strange hearing a Donegal accent after watching the american videos lol.
Hi, thanks for this awesome tutorial.
One suggestion, cause i have changed my diesel filter several times you can even leave the diesel fuel inside, mine Fiesta has this little pump up on the right near water cantainer if you charge that rubber pump it will pump diesel inside the filter and all hoses then the car starts normaly, if you dont do that car doesnt start, i think thats the reason
Maybe cause mine Fiesta is not UK version, you dont have this rubber pump, mine is actually on top from that left plate with 5 bolts you've been talking about
images.app.goo.gl/C8vDGnzMuru8tUGw7
This is how it looks, and yes even on the link its says(Italian) "car doesn't start after diesel filter replacement"
Great vid well explained I have a 2010 reg 1.4 hacienda Ford Fiesta can you tell me if this is the same engine thanks
Sorry I have no idea if they are the same. Maybe a ford garage could tell you.
Great video can i please ask. I need to replace 2 injectors on exactley the same car. Will i need a special injector removal tool? If so what is it plse. Thank you
As long as they aren't caked in carbon you shouldn't need a tool. There's a good video by a channel called Bodgit and leggit about injector removal using a tool if you want to look that up.
Hi mate tell me something are you missing anything about after the rocker bolts are out. I have follwed your instuctions to the letter but my rocker cover feels as if there is a bolt still connect even after taking the two 10mm bolts out the back. Did you have any resistance when you moved the rocker itself as you do not show this part
Sorry I'm only seeing your comment now hopefully you got this sorted.
Do you recommend putting a new gasket on the engine head cover after you’ve removed it? Because I know remove the engine cover can cause the gasket to crumble or bend, but I don’t know if it happens to everyone.
May as well while your there..
So is the root cause of this failure really the copper washers or is it incorrectly torqued or wrongly specified bolts? Heard reports of them failing 6 months after just replacing all the washers.
Ater I changed mine, it pushes the desiel through injectors,what should be the problem?please help
Is there a way to do this job without taking out the diesel filter ? I want to avoid putting an air lock in the fuel system so that it starts up straight away
Great upload. Thanks for sharing !
You are welcome
Any tips on getting the back bolts in to the intake manifold? the two at the back are a pain to line up. I've even tried standing on it to no avail.
Just multiple attempts. It is tricky. I remember trying to mount the rubber rings on the mainfold and trying it that way too. Can't remember which way worked to be honest. Too long ago now. But you will get there if you keep trying.
@@orbitaaltube I eventually got it back on but snapped the small plastic bit that fits into an oil well in the block. Is this something that is required? I'm thinking it's maybe the oil pickup for the turbo?
I watched this video and i changed mine, but remember to tight the injectors back in as in the manual otherwise you did all work for nothing
yes it does and more after 5mph thank u for ur help it will go bk to ford cuz of the money it costs an thing thay did not do
Just followed this and was really careful regarding any debris going into the engine, I had number one injector chuffing, I replace all four washers and plastic guides and now the car is black smoking and down on power,
Any ideas?
Thanks
Brilliant video. Thanks. I'll be doing this next week. So you had no bother removing the injectors? 👍🏴
Had no bother removing them but I believe a previous mechanic had tried the same repair sometime before I did it, which probably made it easier to remove them.
@@orbitaaltube great, thanks for the reply. Makes a change from my old 2.2 diesel Honda Accord. Advice there was just don't even bother, and even a mechanic will probably damage them getting them out
I live in Belfast. Where did you send them? How much did it cost? Do they fix electrical issues with them?
I replaced the copper washers, solved the leak. But the car won't start now. I think there is air in the fuel system. Any help?
Car started after bleeding from high pressure pipes
You don't need to remove the clip on the injector, just push it in and the return line comes off by pulling...
cool. i didn't know that. thanks for the comment
Nice video, where is part 2?
Anyone know what the M4-M16 Left and Right Thread Double End Studs Bolt Screw Rod go my mrs sold me her car and she done as shown in video and now shes telling me there are a few bolts from the car not put back in
Ive heard many Ford Fiesta's. C3's that sound like tanks. Is it because the injectors get blocked silencer's failed etc?
Thank for posting this video. I assume the O rings leaks diesel and want to replace. May I ask the size of the O rings from the leak off pipes?
I think i have the old leak off hoses in a box somewhere which i will try and measure for u. the part is actually plastic so its possible the plastic could be cracked or that the rubber hose itself could be leaking as well.
Thanks! The rubber hoses seems to be completely dry so there will be the plastic also the suspected part in this case the whole hose system should be replaced. I would check the O rings firstly.
Hi, Thanks for Sharing your Video ,I have the same issue as yours. So before i tempt to work on this project, just need to know , how did you get the injectors out?
With a puller or something else? Or any Technics you use for it?Hoping for a prompt reply. Kind Regards Hanif
Hi, is it the same amount of dismantling to replace the injector leak off pipes? Thanks
Leslie Harford yes it is.
Hi sir
I have to do this job to my motor ,I bought a set of cutters for the injectors, but it never come with a info sheet that would of shown me what cutter to use, what size and shape cutter would I use for my motor
I have a ford fiesta 1.4 TDCI 2008, zetec on document but ford say its Duratorq don`t know what MK it would come under ,its a 3 door hatch ,my model does not have the fuel bleeder pump on the side like i see with many models that look like mine,
Hi there - I'm guessing you mean a cutter for the injector seats is that correct? You want to machine the injector seat to make sure its flat again?
@@orbitaaltube yes sorry thats what i meant I am sure it might be a 17mm x 17mm flat could the be correct
@@piecetoyou8285 it's an internal dimension which is circular. Only way to know is to measure it with calipers
@@orbitaaltube i mean circular in circumference but would cut flat bottom where the washer would seat, I suppose ill wait until ill pull the injector out then do measurements, thank 'you for your replies
Petite question , j'ai une Ford Fiesta 1.4l HDI de 68 ch (même moteur que 206 ) et je viens de changer la vanne EGR car ma voiture tremblait au démarrage et des à coups avec perte puissance et défaut ODB vanne egr gelée .Dois-je la passer à la balise. Pour calibrer calculateur ou autres . Car elle tremble encore au démarrage mais roule normalement.
Merci pour ta réponse.
Any idea what the injector clamp torque is ? I cant seem to find it in the haynes manual...
For the mk 7 which seems to be the same engine bar a couple of ancillary differences it is 4Nm + a further 70⁰ turn. I used a protractor to get this angle with 70⁰ in line with me to make it easier to see when target had been reached.
Sar. I want to ask ? My car is same model. I clean my car injector. All is ok but one PROBLEM when i try to close valve cover last 2 hidden score i can't fix . Pls help me .
Hi there, I dont understand the question fully as I know what you mean by hidden score. But if you are having issues with replacing the valve cover again, its difficult to make it fit down into the ports again. I think I had to put the round seals on the valve cover first before fitting and it took a few tries to get it to fit "snug". Good luck. It's many years since I did this work so I cant remember exactly. Please try a few times to fit and you will get there eventually.
@@orbitaaltube. Thanks. I will try my best.
I have a Ford Fusion with the same engine. (Norway) After a OBD check i got this message: "P1204-70 Cylinder #4 Injector Circuit Open/Shorted" can this be fixed with a replacement of injector nr 4? And what side is injector number 4? (Sorry for my bad english) 😊
Sorry I don't know the answer. I'm just a home mechanic and don't have that much expertise.
Great video, many thanks
hi after a day of haveing injecter seal done there's a vibration noise comeing form around the senter dashboard any ideas or just take it back to fords .if u can help plz iam at the end of my tether
does it change when you rev the engine? I'd look to see if there are pipes at back of engine touching/vibrating against the car that shouldn't be. if not just take it back to Ford to sort.
Boss can you please make a video how to change Engine mounts on ford fiesta 2005 TDCI ( DY)
hi like ur vid were can i find glow plugs on a ford fiesta plz can u do a vid . thank u . my injecter have gone a to take it to fords is £500 then £270 for glow plugs .plz can u help me on how to fit glow pluges
+Darren Johnson Hey Darren, It might be cheaper to bring the car to an independent garage if you can get a recommendation from someone local to you as they will definitely be cheaper than the Ford dealership. The glow plugs are at the back of the engine below the intake manifold but they can be a bugger to get out as they might be sized and need a bit of heat to get them out. If they are seized and they break they are an absolute pain in the ass to remove. Its a lot of work to do this, to be honest its easier to take it to a good garage if you can find one.
also should the clamp bolts be replaced?
The injectors just pop off? Or they can become loose? Mine has the same sound as they're leaking but not all the time
In this case they were not stuck but I believe that was because the same repair had been attempted before.
When you going to publish part 2 please or have you already done it?
Hi Orbital, hope you can reply my comment.
Did you also change the rocker cover gasket? I need to change mine, so I assume I'll have to go thorough this whole process. And will I really need to unscrew the coolant tank and the belt cover as well? I'd rather skip this step if possible. :)
Thanks mate. Great video otherwise.
I reused the gasket as it was still in good condition. I wasn't able to do this job without removing those things unless you can find another way.
Did you get it working again?
Hi great video. Anyone know if a bad seal can cause a whooshing sound when accelerating. Car doesnt loose power from what I can tell. Just purchased car but seems ok just when accelerating there is a loud air noise. No smell in the cabin.
ptek2004 hi . I had a whooshing sound on my focus 2lt dtci and worried it might be turbo related and expensive but it turned out to be a perished rubber hose connector that comes off the throttle body and then down to the bottom of the engine maybe intercooler im not sure? But theres 2 of these and after removing hose and adjusting the rubber conector the whooshing noise disappeared so might be worth checking the big hoses off of throttle body before going down the slippery sloped injector route buddy. Hope this helps . Paddy :-)

Hi
I had an Injector changed.
Since then I have had fuel smell in the cabin.
I just saw today fuel on the gearbox .
What can it be.
I don't want to spend extra money on this car
The bolts on the rocker cover. I sheared off 2!
Will this be the same in the mk7 1.4tdci
The manifold is a nightmare the 4 big black oring became bigger with time and its difficult to extract the manifold. No one say that you have to replace that 4 o ring otherwise you will be not able to pust the inlet inside
I think I reused mine. But maybe they had been replaced already. Tricky job this.
At 10:10 minutes you disconnected a plastic pipe and you said it was a fuel line, It isn't it is the Vacuum line from the Vacuum Pump at the end of the cam box to the brake master cylinder servo/brake booster.
Thanks for clearing that up.
many thanks very helpful.
Why is my to rocker cover refusing to come off? I followed your video exactly. I don't know what I'm missing
May need a few taps with a block of wood and hammer to loosen it.
@@orbitaaltube literally having the same issue right now, bugger won't come loose
@@cjsxpro6962 you removed the two bolts at the back right?

Can it leak oil from the orings. I have a leak coming from the rear left as you look at engine

What was the mileage from this fiesta , thanks ?
Hi there in have the same car with injector no 1 out.
Gets better as it warms up.
If I paid you would you do the work for me?
Thanks
Ask some friends and get some recommendations for a mechanic to do the work that would be local to you as I don't work on cars professionally. Get a few quote if there are a few mechanics that are local.
Orbital Tube the car was sat there for nearly a year.
Suppose that caused other problems too.
Many thanks the reply

I've a 2008 Peugeot 207 1.4 hdi,I think these are the same engine? Mine has been making the chuffing noise on and off for a few weeks, mainly in very cold mornings. How bad can this end up, and how much could a garage charge to fix this?
sugar magnolia tighten the injector clamp , reassemble then start it up & bingo! Takes a few hours but won't cost you a penny. Did mine today.
Scoiler Montgomery thanks, you're a gent and a scholar
sugar magnolia no problem. Been out & about in mine today & it is running better & quieter than ever. Tighten all four while you are in there , and new glow plugs are a good shout as you need to take the rocker cover off to do those, so they get overlooked. I re used all o- rings & used a smear of silicone sealant on rocker cover gasket. Wasn't any need to piss about with draining the fuel filter, just undo the bracket & move to the side. Same with coolant reservoir. Make sure you take off the cam belt cover before lifting away the rocker cover. Took me about six hours with cleaning & all that, but if I had to do it again I could do it in half the time. Hope this helps. Also on the cam belt cover, there is a shitty protruding screw housing in the middle of it. Do yourself a favour & cut it off with a hacksaw. You'll see what I mean when you try to refit it.
Scoiler Montgomery I'll be getting an aul work mate of mine to sort them out,I taxiid hdis from 2001 to 2016,and my aul mate served his apprenticeship on 2.0 hdis, the 406, and C5.
