injector loose

[ffej]

any idea ,,injector loose ,tappet noise ,oil leak

Most likely a loose or broken injector clamp allowing the injector to move and seals to fail. Best to replace the clamp, injector seals and rocker cover gasket.

Hi thanks is the clamp under the rocker cover? 

[Devon Aygo]

Afraid so, you will also need 4 x seals between rocker cover and injector pipe the one in your picture already looks to be leaking

thanks for your time to reply .let my garage do it tomorrow

[ffej]

Hi well the garage spent all day doing nothing ,so its back. Home ,and I have got it apart and seals on order ,now the bottom seal on the injector didn't come out with. It ,and I can't get it out .it feels that carbon as built up under it and when I put the injector in its stands higher that the others.. Thanks for any help and info .....(all this because it came loose)

You need an injector seating tool to get rid of the crud and loosen the old seal. Would an old wood chisel do the job ? 

 

[ffej]

Will be putting it all back together tomorrow .manage to get the seal out today using wd40 petrol and welding rod just got to work out how the white and rubber seal fits   any idea ?????

[NORTHERN_LAD]

Great news but sorry don't know in which order they fit.

My picture above should suffice

11176 - is the metal washer you had difficulty removing

96721- is a rubber "o" ring that seats in a groove 1/3 way up the injector

23256 - is a lager rubber seal that seats in a larger groove about 1/2 way on the injector

there are also large "top hat" seals that push into the rocker cover where the fuel pipes join the injector
