Re: [MBZ] Rebuilding injectors
Thanks Barry. That was insightful. I also hear that Purple Power is good stuff:) did you have to adjust pop pressures with the shims?

Re: [MBZ] Rebuilding injectors
Sorry, I think I mis-spoke. I meant that I think the nozzle HOLDERS are interchangeable. The nozzle itself is engine type specific. I was suggesting that while the 220 nozzle HOLDERS may work in your OM616, it may be simpler just to clean the original holders, and install the new Monark nozzles in the original holders. Especially if you think the 220D nozzles may be new. Sell them to someone else with a 220D. There are a few around. Thanks, I'll check the part no. on the 220D ones. Since the nozzles look new they must have been rebuilt. I'll run them through the pop tester and see how they perform and possibly just use in my 240D. Do you know if pop pressur is the same?
