| Remove/install | ||
1 | Warm up engine to normal operating temperature | Coolant temperature approx. 80° C | |
Danger! | Risk of injury to skin and eyes caused by scalding from contact with hot coolant spray. Risk of poisoning caused by swallowing coolant. | Do not open cooling system unless coolant temperature is below 90°C. Open cap slowly and release the pressure. Do not pour coolant into beverage containers. Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses. | |
2 | Open cooling system cap (1) at coolant expansion reservoir (2) | Carefully turn cap as far as the first detent, release pressure, and then unscrew cap. | |
3 | Unscrew oil filler cap (3) | ||
4 | Remove glow plugs (4) | ||
5 | Position piston for cylinder to be tested at ignition TDC | Crank engine at crankshaft in direction of engine rotation (clockwise). | |
6 | Connect cylinder leakage tester (4) | Calibrate cylinder leakage tester. Remove check valve in screw-in fitting. | |

7 | Pressurize cylinder with compressed air and read off pressure loss at cylinder leakage tester (5) | ||
If the crankshaft is rotated | |||
install retaining lock for crankshaft / ring gear. | |||
If pressure loss is high, determine cause | |||

8 | Conduct test for other cylinders in the firing order of the engine | Firing order | |
If retaining lock is installed, remove it, rotate crankshaft further, install once again. | |||
9 | Install in the reverse order |
