Opening Pressure

  1. Install injector on nozzle tester. Engage pressure gauge. Slowly depress lever and read injector opening pressure. Nozzle should open at specified pressure. Injector pressure should be 2103-2248 psi (148-158 kg/cm2 ) for all except Federal sedan models. Federal sedan injector pressure should be 1813-1958 psi (127-138 kg/cm 2 ).
  2. To adjust opening pressure, change shim thickness. Thicker shims will increase opening pressure; thinner shims will decrease it. Shims are available in thicknesses from .031-.077" (.80-1.95 mm) in increments of .002" (.05 mm).
  3. A .002" (.05 mm) shim will increase opening pressure by approximately 36.25 psi (2.5 kg/cm2 ). If opening pressure is incorrect, perform leak test before cleaning and adjusting.
