The injector block off tool kit is a "must have" for anyone who works on Duramax common rail fuel systems.
When a Duramax common rail engine will not start, the very
first thing to check is fuel rail pressure. If the pressure is less than
spec, one of the most likely causes is a defective injector that
is returning excess fuel back to the tank. A return flow volume test
will verify if excessive return flow is the problem. A cap is then
used to identify the individual cylinder that is at fault. The injection
line is removed for one cylinder at a time and the cap installed on the
fuel rail in place of the injection line. When the cylinder with the
offending injector is capped, the rail pressure will rise and the truck
will start. In some cases it can be highly advantageous to have multiple
caps, because several injectors that return slightly too much fuel can
have the same effect as a single injector with extremely excessive
return flow. To purchase complete sets, see related items below.
Injector block off tools can also be useful for diagnosing engine
knocking sounds that may be attributable to an injector or a single
cylinder problem particularly on engines where this capability is not
available through the scan tool, or a bi-directional scan tool is not
available.
