Did you clean the injectors, and if yes, did you disassemble them or not.
I have never heard of homemade gaskets by the way. Don't you risk possible leaks in the near future? |
I would like to visit London anyway, but don't know when that going to be
I cleaned them from the outside, just be careful, there are 4 or 5 small holes where diesel is being sprayed inside the cylinder, video on youtube claimed that they can be damaged easily . You don't need to clean it internally as fuel filter should hold back any peace of dirt or debris. But I took the 3rd injector to a local garage for a injector test just to make sure that it is working and not clogged. I just disassembled the top part, nothing else.
Those type of gaskets are cheap, easy to make(not if you are doing it for the first few times though
) And they are good, I am using it for egr valve, no leaks at all. Every household has materials for this
