Injector spill off pipe, handy tip if broken

rampantchilli · Sep 13, 2017

Hi guys, if, like me, your a heavy handed gorilla fingered numbskull, and you break one of the plastic fittings, and your local parts specialist can't get you the parts for a few days, then you could try a Vauxhall corsa set.
I've had to do mine today, and dealer can't get parts till end of week, and wife needs car this pm, so I went to a breakers and found a 1.3 diesel corsa engine. A quick comparison and they are an exact match.
I've fitted them and they work a treat, added bonus is the breakers didn't charge me for them.

You can also use spill T pieces from VW, BMW, Ford and many other common rail engines that use Bosch injectors.

Buy a kit like this and after installing them you'll always have the old spares for those wee emergencies.

Beat me to it first thing I do when I have a common rail engine using these type of leak off connectors.
