Cleaning fuel injectors
baghall - January 13th, 2015 at 04:52 PM

Hey guys, was wondering if it is possible to separate the short fuel hose from the top of the fuel injectors for a 1.9L T3 in order to clean them using an ultrasonic cleaner with injector cleaning fluid.
TIA

Yes, the originals hoses are crimped on with a steel band. Just cut them off and replace with new fuel injection hose and fuel injection clamps.

Thanks old dubber. Managed to get them off by cutting them. They weren't actually crimped on, though they looked like they were.it was the barbs holding them with the metal squashing them. Was able to push the new hose into the metal as well and couldn't pull it out when I tried to.
