[topcatt35]

hi i have a 2.2 hdi est 2001 model, the other day i thought the exhaust was blowing at the manifold area as i was hearing a noise in the engine bay, after removing the top covers ive noticed the noise such as (air) hissing from the 3rd injector and noticed im down on power i havent phoned citroen yet about this. i s this a easy job or does the injectors need resealing im so confussed what to do. im a little worred as i heard sometime you cant get the injectors out, ive noticed the 2 allen key bolts beside the injectors and was wondering is this the seal its leaking from. please help.

ps, great forum my first day on here

best regards dale

Hi have never done the 2.2 injectors plenty of 2 litres though. I would imagine it would be farly straight forward and that what ever you put back in (new.old, recond) will just go straight in and seal up there is no timming or anything like that to worry about. If your not sure get your digi camera out and take photo every step of the way thatb way youl no how to. put it back together. It really is a straight forward job

ps when you pull the injector out whatch for the sealing ring sumtimes they stay in the head and not the injector youl need to replace the sealing ring and they are available everywhere and cost coppers.

A couple of mine were blowing and it was the washers that had burned away.

They were replaced but now one of the injector bodies is leaking <_<

Hi it makes all the difference in the world when you come back and tell people that the problem has been sorted and the cost.

cheers
