Could anyone help steer me in the right direction?If you are replacing the injectors why would you want to work with the rack which is internal to the pump?

CJ Trucking Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 I am used to working on Detroit 60's and Mercedez's that are in Freightliners. I have never worked on a Mack. So,I unbolted the rocker assembly not realizing that it didnt need to come off. I did not mess with any of the valve adjustments. Can i just retorque the six bolts and everything be ok or do I have to reset the valve adj.Does anyone know the proper torque specs. for thr rocker assembly on the E7 400 1993. After that mistake everything else went smooth. I removed the fuel lines from the side of the head,removed the injector cover, screwed a valve cover bolt into each injector and wiggled them out. If you could help me I would greatly appreciate it.

If you could help me I would greatly appreciate it.45- 55 fp torque down chris cross in smaller increments can't hurt to set the valves on an engine that old ! 16 intake 24 exhast! 55 pounds on the injector screw Snug the screw then loosen a bit, then tighten the injection line and then retorque the screw and properly tighten the injection line.This helps aline or seat the line to the injector to prevent leaks.Good luck Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19877-replacing-fuel-injectors/#findComment-82429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
