Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the slide hammer included with the Laser 8291 tool?
No, the Laser 8291 is an adaptor and requires a separate 5/8" threaded slide hammer, such as Laser Part No. 5850.
What vehicles is this injector removal tool compatible with?
It is compatible with MG ZS (2017-2021) and Vauxhall/Opel Adam (2016-2020), Astra K (2015-2019), Corsa E (2015-2020), Mokka X (2018-2020) models, provided they have the specified engine codes.
Can I use this tool on other car brands or models?
No, this tool is specifically designed for the listed MG and Vauxhall/Opel models and engine types. Using it on incompatible vehicles may cause damage.
What engine sizes does the Laser 8291 support?
It supports 1.0L, 1.4L, and 1.5L engines with specific engine codes listed in the product description (e.g., LE1, LDD, LUJ, 15E4E).
How does this tool attach to the engine?
The tool features a 2-bolt fixing that bolts directly onto the fuel pipe mounting plate where the injector is secured.
What is the advantage of using this specific tool over a generic puller?
This tool provides a direct, secure mounting point designed for the specific vehicle's fuel system, allowing for controlled force application via a slide hammer, which reduces the risk of damaging the injector or engine components compared to less specialized methods.
Where is the Laser 8291 tool manufactured?
The tool is made in Sheffield, known for its high-quality tool manufacturing.
Troubleshooting
Tool does not fit the mounting plate.
Verify that the vehicle and engine model are within the specified compatibility list. Ensure you are using the correct 2-bolt fixing points for the injector.
Slide hammer does not thread into the tool.
Confirm that you are using a slide hammer with a 5/8" thread. Ensure the tool's thread is clean and free of debris.
Injector remains stuck after using the tool.
Apply more controlled force with the slide hammer. Ensure the tool is securely bolted to the mounting plate. Consider using a penetrating oil around the injector base and allowing it to soak before attempting removal again.
Damage to the fuel pipe mounting plate.
Ensure the tool is correctly aligned and that bolts are appropriately tightened but not overtightened. Avoid excessive force that could warp or break the plate.
