Piping between injectors

Unread post by superloopy »

Not sure what the exact term is for the little pipes which run between the injectors on a turbodiesel? I'm about to replace the glowplugs and now seems a good time to replace these little black pipes but with what? Anyone know the citroen part numbers for the piping and the little end pipe?

They are called leak off pipes and can be bought in almost any car accessory shop as a kit or pipe by the metre.

The end is included in the set. Try to get a length as the longer bit from number 4 injector won't be included with precut lengths.

Watch those ends as they are often the first to split... I still favour making an end from a bit of spare pipe doubled-back on itself and held tight with a couple of cable ties...
