@@TheRepairerThe diesel coming from the injector has a pressure between 1600 - 2500 bar in the common rail. It will blowen away and burned in the cylinder😀 Thanks for your effort showing us!👍
It was stuck but the carb cleaner I left soaking overnight freed it of quickly. I have had much worse than that to deal with as explained in the video and how I freed them off over many weeks.
Galvanic corrosion of alum to steel caused by water intrusion over a long period of time. Dealing with that now on a sprinter t1n engine out of vehicle. Taking it slow trying various (every) penetrants and several puller methods that do not destroy "egg shell" valve cover. I can lift engine via claw foot on any 5 of the injectors and it don't budge-that's what "stuck" is on this engine. Still trying various methods ie "vibrating-oscillation" of injector with a custom tool. Also plan to make a "brace" for upward pulling from outer surfaces that are stronger than egg shell valve cover. Tried some vinegar carefully placed at injector base for short period of time (up to 8hrs) which got me couple of mm deep. Wondering if some heat introduced via injector bolt hole could help (?).... last resort may try some lye carefully placed with dropper around injector base letting it sit for awhile while also using puller or keeping upward pressure on injector.
@@jamesfish5630 use a blow torch directly to injector body for 15 seconds. Make sure the electric top is removed, it's plastic. The injector will go out almost by hand. Or, even better - always remove (or at least undo) injectors from engine at nominal working temperature.
@@paddlehard5722 All 5 were galvanic corroded so bad multiple heating's using every liquid known had no effect what so ever. The heat may work in black death cases but this one had sitting water for who knows how long (Florida van).
@@jamesfish5630 Yes, black death exactly. That was my experience. But actual corrosion what you have could be a nasty thing to break. Maybe you could try "injector ex" by Wuerth. Very high penetration capability. It amazes me how engine designers care so little about injector protection from environment. I have seen engines with actual accumulation pit at each injector base. Looks like a terrible joke.
The video outlines some of the techniques for the removal of a stick injectors. I have dealt with many stuck injectors and freed them using the illustrated techniques. Only a Yo-yo would assume the video details my experiences with stuck injectors in full!
Great video will help me when I do mine, some great tips also, thank you so much.
Best of luck with your repairs.
Thanks excellent video and information 👍
Thanks for viewing.
Can you use anti seize compound to prevent injectors getting stuck in the future? Cheers 🤙🏻
A good thought but I would be wary of any of the anti seize compound making it’s way to the tip and causing injector blockages.
@@TheRepairer Many thanks 🤙🏻

Thanks!
Why did you mark the relationship between the solenoid and injector body?
Regards
Just incase I knocked the injector and the nut turned out of alignment I could easily return in to the correct torque setting.
Did you reuse the same bolts or get new ones ? And if you got new ones can you drop a link please
I reused the bolts but took great care to clean the threads especially in the head.
That ain’t stuck

My dear friend, fortunately for you, you don't know what a stuck injector is.
Oh yes I do and I have been able to remove them after many weeks of patience using the methods detailed in the video.

Half a job . . fact .
Feel free to take the necessary time to elaborate.
Maybe show checking the spray pattern
How about a restart with an airlock?
christ on a bike, you aint seen a stuck injector ya yoyo
