       2.25 injection pump filter change
       By: eddie hitler Date: February 17, 2012, 3:19 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       my attempt at a how to thread...
       at work a 2.25 injector pump came in with a lack of power and
       poor starting, the owner had changed the fuel filter, draind the
       tank and flushed the fuel lines after some 'dodgey' diesel had
       been used.
       there is another filter in the inlet of the injector pump.
       changeing this filter is a relatively esay diy job (however his
       pump was too far gone hence its part-striped state)

       this ally casting is the transfer pump housing, before unbolting
       slacken but do not remove the 24mm plug on top, then remove the
       four 8mm bolts holding the casting to the head (the steel bit)
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start14.jpg
       remove the casting
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start8.jpg
       at this point it is wise to replace the transfer pump blades ,
       these are made of graphite and are quite easly broken
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start10.jpg
       remove them with a pair of long nosed plyers
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start19.jpg
       gently push the new blades in, you might need to lubericate them
       with diesel
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01004.jpg
       back to the filter, take the casing inside as there are a few
       small bits that if droped wont be found again! unscrew the top
       plug and remove the spring or tip the contents on to the bench
       (2 springs a spring cap/shim and a piston)
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01005.jpg
       carefully remove the plastic filter with a small screw driver
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start3.jpg
       the old filter next to the new one, this ones in a very bad
       state
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start5.jpg
       as can be seen by the amount of muck removed
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC00995.jpg
       with the filter removed the rest of the inards should fall out
       from left to right, hair spring, piston housing, piston, small
       spring, spring cap, main spring and filter.
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01007.jpg
       remove whats left of the card washer (some may be on the housing
       and some left inside the casing) and replace with a new one.
       to reassemble put the hair spring back into the bottom of the
       casing, it can be a pain to get to to lie right.
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01006.jpg
       place the piston in its housing (it's not handed) and replace in
       the caseing (the card washer end down)
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01017.jpg
       next the filter...
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01015.jpg
       then the small spring (shown without the filter)
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start27.jpg
       this is the spring cap the end with the three lines sits inside
       the large spring. a small amount of grease may be needed to hold
       it into the large spring
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/start28.jpg
       fit the large spring then replace the 24mm cap useing a new
       copper washer
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01028.jpg
       replace the seal between the head and the casing
  HTML http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq190/eddie_hitler/DSC01029.jpg
       screw the casing the back onto the head being carfull to line
       the dowel and the slot up. these screws only need a little more
       than a nip.
       thats it i hope this was helpfull (and readable )
       :lol:

       Cool post!
       Does this filter exist on the 2.5d and td engines as well? Might
       check mine

       Looks good, good write up.
       Are you saying that the seals are the only thing that needs
       doing or is there any calibration that also needs doing?

       on that bit its just seals no setting needed
       and the 2.5 is similar but not the same in this area
       cheers

       sorry to butt in but have you got a clue about how would a worn
       distributor pump sound like?
       does it sound rattly when using a long screw driver against its
       body and ear?
