I’m a humble plumber and this was my first attempt as I just couldn’t afford to pay a £1000 for someone to pull them, I’ll list below what I did
1. I drilled a 3mm hole at a slight angle between sleeve and injector and sprayed WD in the hole & let it soak in for a few days
2 Pulled the injector with a 10T ram (it snapped)
3 I got a magnet and pulled out enough internals to get to the nozzle, this has 2 small holes
3 made a tool using the part above the nozzle , welded into some stud, this let me wiggle the nozzle loose
4. Tap a thread
5 pulled out the bottom of injector using the hand puller with a spanner
well done mate im a plumber to! just finished doing my unvented at home heating packed up
@@tinker-time cool , not much us plumbers can’t do when we set our mind to it, those injectors are on another level but I’ll use the same technique on 1&4 and get those done, when my old BBU went I went for a combi as only one bathroom here
Hi Mark, I really couldn't believe how much pressure you was putting that injector threw and the little shit still didn't come out it was so painful to watch..
All i hope i never get the same problem on my 1.9 engine as you've got on your 2.0l...
Keep them Coming buddy always great to watch....
I'm trying to locate were the alarm is supposed to be !! I've looked under the wheel arch and around the ECU but can't find it anywhere
Hi mate, cheers yer a lot of stress on the head a fitting, started to get abit much then snap it went,
The alarm siren on the other white white is near the passager side light under a metal bracket 👍
@@tinker-time cheers Mark I think mine has been removed as I can't see it
Hey Mark i managed to get my snapped injector out, so pleased I did it
Heyy brill stuff 😊 👍👍
@@tinker-timethe nozzle was stopping me from tapping a thread so I got the disc with the little bars in it that sits above the nozzle , I welded that to a bar which enabled me to stick it back down the hole and gently twist until it broke off the carbon, then with a strong magnet I pulled out the nozzle, then I tapped a thread and it pulled out with the hand puller rather than the ram type
@@tinker-timepeople loose or take the engine cover off with protects it from the corrosion 🤦
Was worth a shot Mark, shame it didnt work for you pal! Ive heard those air type pullers are rubbish on these, as you say these vans are some of the worst for injector removal. Keep at it mate & you'll get there!
Cheers, mate,👍
Yer, the air puller, I think, works better on normal injectors, I'd say, but I'll get the engine out, and then give the the injector what for! 🤣
@@tinker-time Good luck!
Friend let me tell you how.. take flame tortch and heat thet injector untill is smoking hot, red glowing. Then take big key and slowly turn injector left right, milimeters,then after 20minutes stop and heat injector again, red glowing and then do the same, repeat untill you feel free movement then turn him more and more. he will get loose because heat will get him unstuck. Garanteed. Force alone will do nothing. I saw garage loosen bolts who hold injectors a bit just enaugh to make space,then start engine and with brick push gas till 2000rpm to get good hot. Then when head hot injestors will pop itself out from heat+pressure. This workes too.. This problem is because water crawl in to injectors. Then calc crawls inbetween injector and head.. Otherwise drill top ring of injectors out and remove head cover to remove head. Then you can press rest of injectors out upside down.. This are best 3 choices..Good luck my friend, i saw mine rusted as hell on Vivaro 2014 then i close it down because engine still runs and exchange it and buy new car, other brand..
hi
thanks you for the help i will try this if i get to stuck 👍👍
Keep em coming 👍
Cheers mate, lots more to come by the looks of it now 👍👍
Thanks for watching and subscribing 👍
Wow, they was well seized in wasn't they bud I hope I don't have this problem with my vivaro great video 👍
These are properly stuck. I think I might have more of a chance when I get the engine out,
I could feel the stress on the cylinder head. Nothing was moving, so maybe get a load of heat on them when the engine's out
Long video, but I couldn't make it any shorter. I think it won't have done it, Justice. I hope people watched it to the end
Wow that is well stuck!
Yer mate its proper sizsed.in, It all started to feel they was alot pressure on head, once the engine out I'll have another ago
I removed scuttle and siliconed it, really bad design them leaking water all over the cylinder head. I managed to get all 4 out on mine after soaking them with wd40 for 3 days, number 2 injector was worst that took me another 2 days to get it out.
Proper rubbish design water just leaks in imagine that for 10 years on he's still under it there's no wonder than injector clamps and bolts look like they do
@@tinker-time mine was exactly 10years and i open it, then closed it and sold car... Game over.. Garage here say 1400e injectors and 2-3days work 2500e work so i sold the bitch.. Stupid design, water rusted my injectors till bone..
What a nightmare! These they are a rubbish idea, it just end up the van been scapped, 🤦♂️🙄
Helll mate Maybe try your pulller again and a air chisel on the base of the injector whilst pulling it? Shame its to far gone otherwise i would say thrash the thing up the road with the clamp bolt loose 😂 good luck bud
Could try and air chisel 👍 at the same time, never seen rust like weld! 🤣 get I'll the engine out, and blast them out one way or another 👍
Also just watched your other videos with your non running vivaro. Have you done a leak off test on it? You could have an injector dumping all your fuel pressure. If you have an old injector pipe cut the pipe so your just left with the nut, weld the hole up and block an injector off at the rail 1 at a time see if it fires up on 3. Hope this helps
Hi
Hey cheers for I'll get that ago 👍👍 that engine ran, but it been sat that long it could have a damaged injectior I've got a leak off kit somewhere thinking about now 🤔 let try that 👍
Good effort that looked scary
Yer alot stress on top of the engine once it out, I'll try with some think else 👍
Leave it soaking for aday or two in wd 👍
I used a 10T hydraulic puller on mine and the injector snapped leaving some behind, currently been soaking in WD for the last 2 weeks, I’m going to, drill,tap and pull again
Yer. Looked at one of those yellow 10t puller tool look good 👍let us know how you get on 👍
@@tinker-time it’s a great piece of kit and it pulled the injector out, I also got another kit which has a hole right through the ram making it more adjustable but the yellow one has worked well for me just need to get the broken bit out of the block and it’ll all be good
I'll get this engine out, and then buy one to try get all 4 out 👍
@@tinker-time on mine injector 2 is done, injector 3 stuck tip and injector 1 has ohms reading of 152.1 and injector 4 has ohms reading of 169.1 they will need doing too soon enough
I once started the engine and blew the tip out ! 🤣 didn't post the video it was fast
Did you give the puller a good smack with lump hammer while youd got the pressure on.Came across a freeing oil years ago made by rocol its about 20 quid a can but you dont need much and its excellent.
I'll look into that stuff, I use rocol gas leak detection, that good to
