The o-rings are what seals the inside from the outside, prevents fuel
getting out and air getting in. DV repairs are normally brought on because
of that, but it makes sense to replace the copper seals and springs while in
the area.

Hi Max -
Seems like once I've taken the DVs apart I may as well replace the
o-rings. Does it not?
Also, the o-rings are the least expensive parts (IIRC) - the springs
are over $17 for 5 from Rusty.
Hmmm.....
BTW, Max & I rec'd similar training - I was a mechanics apprentice at a
VW-Porsche dealer in the late 60s. Had to replace many exhaust studs ;-)

If you have a rough idle and suspect a DV could be contributing, then
I'd recommend the springs and the copper washer, but many have only
replaced the copper washer and suffered no ill by re-using the springs.

so what all are you supposed to replace? I need to do them on my 606.
I ordered the o rings but that is it, do I need the washers and the
springs also?

I spoke with Rusty yesterday and he does not have the socket for the
Injector Valves - I ordered one from Baum Tools for $40+$7 shipping.
Hopefully it'll arrive soon. Rusty does have the DV springs and the
MB procedure says to replace them (I already have the O-rings and
copper washers) - but strangely not the o-rings - only to oil them
prior to installation.
Also, I looked at the engine last night to see how difficult it will
be to torque the delivery valves and while it would be easier if I
remove the intake manifold I hope that won't be necessary - it will
all depend on the height of the socket with the torque wrench
attached. Hopefully I can find a way - I don't really want to R&R the
intake manifold but will if need be.
Thx for all the great info -

Larry, et al.
The socket,(from Rusty I think), that I have is made by Kokon from
Japan. P/N 4133.
18mm inside with lots of fine teeth.
Call Rusty, he's The Man.

One more question. Rusty doesn't have the special socket - he
suggested Assenbachertool but the only one I saw there was a 22mm MB
Injector tool - it looks like a hex socket - my memory of the DVs is
it having a bunch of teeth around it so a matching socket would be
needed. The car is not here so I can't go look - Any idea where I
might find/rent this socket? Is it a 22mm socket?
($33 above)
Thanks!
Larry
