10 Tips Common Injector Faults and Removement Methods

The Bosch common rail injector is the precise coupling of the diesel engine system. The working condition of the injector directly affects the power, economy and reliability of the diesel engine. From the working principle of the injector, it is not difficult to see that the injector needs to have a certain injection pressure, injection process and appropriate cone angle. In addition, the injector should be able to quickly cut off the fuel supply when it needs to stop the injection. No oil dripping.
In the working process of the injector, there will be a variety of faults and phenomena, so what are the common troubleshooting ideas and methods of the injector?

1. The Orifice is Blocked.

Because solid impurity particles are mixed in the fuel, or carbon deposits are generated due to poor combustion, the working time will be a little longer, and the injection hole will be semi blocked. Once the injection hole is blocked, the fuel supply pressure of the injection pump will rise with a knocking sound.
Prevention methods: on the one hand, the fuel entering the injector shall be strictly filtered; on the other hand, the combustion shall be improved to prevent the injection hole from being blocked due to excessive carbon deposition.

2. Spray Nozzle Dripping

When the injector is working, the sealing cone of the needle valve body will be frequently impacted by the needle valve. In addition, the high-pressure fuel is continuously injected from this place, the cone will gradually appear wear or spots, which will cause the injector to drip oil. When the temperature of diesel engine is low, the exhaust pipe emits white smoke, and when the temperature of diesel engine rises, it becomes black smoke. The exhaust pipe will emit irregular shooting sound. At this time, if the oil supply to the cylinder is stopped, the smoke exhaust and firing sound will disappear.
Troubleshooting: remove the nozzle, check whether the movement of the needle valve is flexible and whether the sealing of the seat surface is good, and then carefully clean and research or replace the new nozzle coupling.

3. Nozzle Corrosion and End Carbon Deposition


The corrosion of spray nozzle is caused by the cold corrosion caused by sulfide in exhaust gas. The corrosion of spray nozzle is caused by the cold metal surface, so it is subject to chemical corrosion. All nozzles found to be corroded shall be replaced.
Carbon deposition at the end of the nozzle is easy to form when the diesel engine is running at idle speed or under low load. When the load of the diesel engine increases, the carbon slag on the fuel injector will be burned when the fuel is injected. The carbon deposition at the end has a certain impact on fuel atomization and fuel distribution uniformity during combustion, resulting in incomplete combustion, power reduction of diesel engine, post combustion and various mechanical failures.
Troubleshooting: remove the nozzle and remove the carbon deposit on the nozzle by mechanical or weak corrosion. It is very important to remove the carbon deposit inside the spray hole, but the sealing seat surface must be protected from damage. In order to prevent the steel wire for cleaning from breaking in the hole, the steel wire must be installed in the chuck, and the length of the steel wire exposed to the spray hole shall not exceed 2 mm.

4. Needle Valve Stuck

The water or acid substance in the diesel oil will rust the needle valve and get stuck. After the sealing cone of the needle valve is damaged, the combustible gas in the cylinder will also rush into the mating surface to form carbon deposits, which will cause the needle valve to bite, and the injector will lose the injection effect, causing the cylinder to stop working.
Troubleshooting: remove the fuel injector, take out the fuel injector coupling, and use tools to pull out the needle valve. If it is not easy to pull out, put the fuel injector coupling into the diesel oil and heat it for about 20 minutes before taking it out. When taking out the needle valve, the tail is padded with copper skin, and the tail is clamped with pliers and pulled out while rotating. Pull it out and put it into the cleaning solution for cleaning, and then refill it. If it is the invasion of dirt, it will be flexible after cleaning. If it is due to the geometric shape of the coupling parts that affects the flexibility, a small amount of grinding paste should be added for light grinding, and cleaning should be carried out after grinding.

5. Poor Atomization of Fuel Injector


When the injection pressure is too low, there is carbon deposit in the nozzle wear, the end face of the spring wear or the spring force drops, it will cause the injector to open in advance, delay to close, and form the phenomenon of poor atomization. The diesel engine power drops, the exhaust gas emits black smoke, and the machine operation sound is abnormal. In addition, because the diesel droplets with too large particle size can’t be fully burned, they will flow into the oil pan along the cylinder wall, which will increase the oil level, reduce the viscosity and worsen the lubrication, and may also cause the accident of tile burning and cylinder pulling. At this time, the fuel injector shall be disassembled for cleaning, maintenance and re commissioning.

6. Broken Spring

In addition to the permanent deformation caused by the decrease of the rigidity of the pressure regulating spring of the injector, the fracture of the spring is also frequent, which has become one of the weak links of the injector. It is mainly caused by the poor fatigue strength of spring steel under high temperature, high load and high frequency working conditions.
Solution: improve the fatigue strength, select high-quality heat and fatigue resistant materials, and carry out surface treatment and shot peening to enhance the fatigue strength. In order to make the pressure regulating spring work safely and reliably, reduce the dynamic load of the spring, the fuel injector can be designed as the spring can be immersed in the diesel oil in the fuel injector body. So that when the fuel injector is working, the working ring of the spring can produce hydraulic “buffer” and some lubrication effects, so as to prevent the spring from breaking due to the formation of pitting surface on the contact surface.

7. The End Face of Needle Valve Body is Worn.

The end face of the needle valve body is impacted by the frequent reciprocating motion of the needle valve, which will gradually form a pit over a long period of time, thus increasing the lift of the needle valve and affecting the normal operation of the injector. The needle valve body can be clamped on the grinder to grind the end surface, and then the fine grinding paste can be used to grind the glass plate.
8. The Guide Surface of Needle Valve and Needle Valve Hole is Worn.


The frequent reciprocating movement of the needle valve in the needle valve hole, together with the invasion of impurities in diesel oil, will make the guide surface of the needle valve hole wear gradually, so the gap increases or there are scratch marks, resulting in the increase of the internal leakage of the injector, the decrease of the pressure, the decrease of the injection quantity, the delay of the injection time, and the difficulty of starting the diesel engine. When the injection time is delayed too much, the diesel engine can’t even run. At this time, the needle valve coupling should be replaced.

9. The Joint Hole Between the Injector and the Cylinder Head Ieaks and leaks Oil.

When the fuel injector is installed in the cylinder head, the carbon deposit in the installation hole shall be carefully removed, and the copper gasket must be flat and shall not be replaced by asbestos plate or other materials to prevent poor heat dissipation or failure to play a sealing role. If the copper washer is made by ourselves, it must be processed with red copper according to the specified thickness to ensure that the distance between the injector and the cylinder head plane meets the technical requirements. In addition, when the pressure plate of the fuel injector is installed firmly, unilateral bias shall be avoided, and it shall be tightened evenly according to the specified torque, otherwise the head of the fuel injector will suffer from gas leakage and oil channeling due to deformation and deflection.

10. The Fuel Injector Return Pipe is Damaged.


When the wear of needle valve couple is serious or the fit between needle valve body and injector shell is not tight enough, the return oil quantity of injector increases obviously, some of which can reach 0.1-0.3kg/h. If the oil return pipe is damaged or leaked, the oil return will be lost, resulting in waste. Therefore, the oil return pipe must be intact and sealed so that the oil can flow into the oil tank smoothly. If the return pipe is connected to the diesel filter, a check valve shall be set at its terminal to prevent the diesel in the filter from flowing back into the injector.
