CLEANING

CAUTION

When using the injector tube bevel reamer (J5286-9C) to remove carbon deposits from the

fuel injector tube, exercise care to remove only carbon deposits. Using too much force or

speed will cut through the thin wall of the fuel injector tube.

NOTE

Before installing a fuel injector in cylinder head assembly, remove carbon deposits

from beveled seat of the injector tube. This will ensure correct alignment and fit of

fuel injector nut and spray nozzle in the injector tube.

Pack the flutes of the reamer (J5286-9C) with grease to retain carbon removed

from the injector tube. Rotate the reamer in a clockwise direction only, even when

inserting and removing the tool from injector tube.

Place a couple drops of cutting oil around bevel seat (Figure 19, Item 43) of injector tube

(Figure 19, Item 41).
