Been there, did that. My mechanic and I did it in the engine bay. Removed all injectors and glow plugs. Had to extract everything using extraction tools and drill. What a disaster. We didn't have to change the head though. Change the crankcase filter too. Changed the timing chain tensioners while at it. Whre are you located? The dealers up in NY have no diesel mchanics. It's a good engine that was ruined with all the environmental attachments and the dripping cowl. I had to change the DPF and Catalytic Converter too. The door linkage on all of the doors too. The driverside headlight connector goes bad on all of the promasters gas and diesel. Every year the EGR and throttle body needs to be cleaned out due to all the exhaust gases being recirculated back into the engine. It would be nice to find a centrifical catch can for this engine.
You forgot to mention what a nightmare is to service the electro-hydraulic shifter actuator assembly for the manual gearbox and extracting broken glow plugs. 😅
It doesn’t actually take long to pull the drivetrain. The van was towed in to our shop with no fuel tubes and water sitting on the valve cover. After all these years they now released TSB on replacing the leaky cowl and resealing.
Good job. Is it the electro-pneumatic socket wrench that was key to the success ? Does this method work as good as or even better than the pneumatic or hydraulic extractors ?
Walter Strohbeck hi, I just used air gun to speed things up, you can use regular wrenches or ratchets on this removal tool. I don’t have any other extracting tools to try which performs better.
Have replaced a broken injector and a broken high-pressure tube, due to a leakage. The high-pressure pump don`t give any fuel and the engine will not start. There are low-pressure fuel running, but no ignition. How do I get it running? The OBD don`t show any failure.
I have a 2015 Promaster diesel still under the drive train warranty with a failed glow plug the dealer wants to drill it out is that possible with the motor being installed in the van? This is the second time I've had a bad glow plug the first time at 26,000 miles they dropped the engine and put a new head on it. Need advice Thanks
Yes it is possible with the engine in the van. The intake manifold must come out though. So you have more room to use the glow plug drill/removal tool kit. Just went though this ordeal last week.
@@TDRAuto OK thanks it's going in Monday morning for the glow plug ,struts leaking and blower motor. I think they changed the head last time (28,000 miles) because #2 broke I also fell into the no o-ring injector TSB on pre 3-15 manufacture date diesel Promasters so they were probably all seized. Last week I made a plastic cover to divert the water that is infiltrating the engine bay so it rolls to the front side of the motor so far the injector valley has been dry but 40,000 miles has gone by since the head was done. FCA was great the first time around this time not so much. On your video you stated your replacing the head is that for seized glow plugs? Thanks Happy Thanks giving
BILL WORKMAN I replaced the head due to all 4 injectors seized and rust build up. Vehicle was towed in without fuel tubes and with lots of sitting water around injectors and glow plugs as well. FCA finally released TSB on that windshield cowl leaking.

Just to fill in even 3.6 v6 gas I had rotten intake manifold bolts ...had to drill it out two mid intake manifold bolts ... water salt dirt all in there . under the hood . Awful engineering

What a real bad design and a real piece of shite like all modern Diesels .Brock.
Thanks for great video, Do you have any video to how to do the head gasket on this van?

thank you! saved me from pulling the head!
Old but gold 👍 so this tool definitely works on the fiat ducato 3.0 ?? I thought iveco engine was ducato
@@Elites-asthetic It worked pretty good after trimming it, because there is not much room around the injector
UK the 3.0 ducato engine is an Iveco motor
It’s also same has the promaster dead same engine
If an injector snapped off in the head would it be possible to drill out like a glow plug ?
Is timing chain engine out job?
hi great vid can you tell me do these engines use copper seals on the injectors thanks
project russell Yes, copper washers/seals just like on Sprinters!
Hi posible this tools buy?
Where did you get that “tempered hex”?
TDR why did you have to change the head?

I have the same now, Did you find the problem?
2015 promaster diesel p0263-00 cylinder 1 contribution balance. Am I looking at a injector issue. Advice???
Did you ever fix this problem? i have the same issue
👋👋👋👋👋👋 muito top mesmo ótima ferramenta parabéns
Do these injectors have copper washers?
yes, and as far as I know all diesel injectors have a sealing washers.

@@TDRAuto you wouldn't have the TSB number would you?
Are you in the Chicago area for future reference?

You can't save the injectors? Don't they cost 600 euro each?
I just did a head and didnt have to remove engine and trans
Valve cover will crack
i have literally done this today ... its on the thickest part of the cover, no cracks
A pain in the butt. We took 6 weeks to remove our injectors...rusted in...
F I A T . . . . Fix It Again Tomorrow.

No wonder nobody wants to work on these
