I may have already found the issue but I have a couple of questions anyway. The Cat dealer has come out about 3 weeks ago and hooked up to this D6T to check a high idle flutter in the engine. They showed that #1 and #5 injectors were faulty to some degree. The customer bought replacement injectors (all 6) and a new internal injector wire harness that I recommended. I found oil in the injector wiring harness plug which is possibly what was causing the issue but since the machine has 8000 hours and the injectors were already purchased, they have decided to go ahead and replace them all along with the harness.
I have a couple of questions …..
1. Does Cat make a removal tool for these? I am assuming they do as I really don't want to heel bar these out of the head (there really isn't enough room to do this anyway.)
2. Can I evac the fuel from the head galley efficiently enough by unhooking the fuel inlet line at the head and blowing compressed air through it? I don't want a lot of fuel running off into a cylinder when I remove the first one. How would you go about this yourself?
