Hi all
I’m new to the forum, I’ve signed up to ask for some help/advice if that’s ok
My 2009 Vito 109 cdi had terrible black death. I took all the injectors out and cleaned it right up, reinstalled all with new seals and bolts but the injector which was the problem still leaked. I used a re-seating tool and did it again…twice, I even heated up the copper seal, and still leaking. So I thought the stretch bolt might not be clamping down far enough so I cut it down by a few threads, this caused the thread to strip in the cylinder head. So I’ve had a right nightmare and feel a bit stuck now. The van is solid otherwise but not worth spending a fortune on, will a heli coil be ok for the stretch bolt hole? And if so does anyone have any ideas about the blowing injector seal? Thanks a lot in advance
