FAQs
What is the primary use of this kit?
This kit is used for re-cutting diesel injector seats when fitting new injectors to ensure a proper seal and optimal engine performance.
How do I prevent metal shavings from contaminating the engine?
Apply a good amount of grease to the cutting edges of the cutter before use. The grease will trap the metal swarf (shavings) as it is generated, keeping the bore cleaner.
Can I use a power drill with these cutters?
No, the kit includes a T-bar specifically for manual driving of the cutters. Using power tools is not recommended and could damage the cutters or the injector seat.
What if I don't see the exact size I need?
The kit includes a wide range of common sizes. It's important to select the closest matching size that accurately fits the existing seat profile. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for precise specifications.
How many seat cutters are included in the kit?
The kit includes one 19mm injector base cutter and thirteen specialized seat cutters of various sizes and angles.
What is the purpose of the injector tube reamer?
The 15.5mm injector tube reamer is used to clean and prepare the injector tube itself, ensuring a clean surface for the new injector to seat against.
How should I store the kit?
Store the kit in its original case in a clean, dry place to protect the cutters from corrosion and damage.
Troubleshooting
Cutter not engaging or cutting effectively.
Ensure the correct cutter size and angle have been selected for the injector seat. Verify the T-bar is securely attached to the cutter. Check for any obstructions in the injector bore. Apply sufficient, consistent pressure.
Excessive metal swarf in the injector bore.
Ensure a sufficient amount of grease was applied to the cutter before use. Rotate the cutter slowly and allow the grease to trap the swarf. Carefully clean the bore after cutting with a suitable tool and grease or a vacuum.
T-bar feels loose or unstable.
Check that the cutter is fully seated and secured within the T-bar drive mechanism. Ensure there is no damage to the T-bar or cutter connection point.
