Fuel Rail Overview






1 - Fuel injector

With combustion chamber seal (Teflon(R) seal), always replace

Replace O-rings

Note correct installation position

Removing and installing, refer to => [ Fuel Injectors ] Fuel Injectors

2 - Support Ring

3 - Fuel Rail

Removing and installing, refer to => [ Fuel Rail ] Fuel Rail

4 - High Pressure Pump

With fuel pressure regulator valve (N276)

There is an electric fuel pump located in the tank that supplies the fuel to the mechanical high pressure pump.

When installing, make sure that no dirt enters the fuel system.

The fuel system must be without pressure to install the high-pressure pump, releasing fuel pressure, refer to => [ Releasing Pressure in High Pressure Area ] Releasing Pressure In High Pressure Area.

Install the fuel lines free of tension

Removing and installing, refer to => [ High Pressure Pump ] High Pressure Pump

5 - Roller Tappet

6 - Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve (N276)

7 - High Pressure Pump Bolts

First tighten the bolts diagonally hand-tight, then to 5 Nm and then to 20 Nm.

8 - Connections for the Fuel Supply Line on the Fuel Rail

40 Nm

Replace

9 - Fuel Supply Line Union Nut

20 Nm

10 - Channel Separating Plates (intake manifold flaps)

11 - Gasket

Replace

12 - Intake Manifold

16 - Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336)

Adapt the intake manifold runner position sensor to the ECM after removing, installing or replacing the intake manifold runner position sensor or the intake manifold. Use the vehicle diagnostic tester in "Guided Functions".

17 - Fuel Pressure Sensor (G247)

27 Nm

Coat the threads with clean engine oil.
