Loose collar nuts are becoming epidemic on these old engines leading to air and fuel seepage around the base of the fuel injectors. They tend to loosen over time, especially when removing previously over-torqued fuel injectors! Free instructions included by watching the video below:
Product Details
This important collar nut is torqued to between 100 and 120 foot-pounds to provide the proper seal between the pre-chamber and the cylinder head. There is no way one can put that amount of torque and a twin-notched nut like this without using some type of clamp to secure the socket to the nut. This prevents the socket from "jumping" out of the notches during tightening or loosening.
The threaded insert part of the tool is screwed down into the pre-chamber. With the notched socket seated tightly against the collar nut, a 32 mm socket and wrench is used to tighten or loosen the collar nut. In most cases just tightening the collar nut will solve most pre-chamber leak problems.
ALSO NEEDED: You will need a 32mm socket to turn the wide shoulder of this tool. An open-end or adjustable wrench is very difficult to line up with the tool with the engine in the car. If you do not own this socket you can order online or purchase from us below:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: This tool will only tighten and remove the collar nut. It WILL NOT remove the pre-chamber. If tightening the collar nut does not solve your leak problems, then you may have to remove the pre-chamber to install a new sealing ring under the top lip of the pre-chamber. The pre-chamber removal tool is available separately. Look below to order. prechamber
