- Disconnect fuel distributor with injectors from
intake plenum and set aside in rear of engine
compartment on a clean cloth.

WARNING!

Fuel system is under pressure! Before
opening system, place rags around the
connection point. Then release pressure by
carefully loosening connection.

- Disengage retaining clip and remove fuel
injector.

Note:
Fuel lines must be removed before replacing fuel
distributor.
Installation is reverse of removal, noting the
following:

Test requirement:

Fuel pressure OK, checking Page 24

.

Test sequence

- Remove fuel distributor including fuel injectors
from intake manifold Page 24
-46
. Fuel lines
remain connected.

- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at wiring harness
to Engine Control Module (ECM), do not connect
ECM Page 24
-19
.

Checking Proper Seal

- Bridge terminals 1 and 65 at test box using wires
from VAG1594A adapter test kit.

- Switch ignition on.


Fuel Pump (FP) must run.

- Check proper seal of fuel injectors (visual
inspection). With Fuel Pump (FP) running, only 1
to 2 drops per minute may drip out per injector.

-
If fuel loss is greater, stop Fuel Pump (FP) from

Checking Injection Quantity

- Insert fuel injector to be tested in a measuring
glass from VAG1602 injection quantity test
device.

- Connect one terminal of fuel injector to engine Ground (GND) using an
adapter cable and an alligator clip from VAG1594A connector test kit.
- Connect second terminal of fuel injector to B+ using VAG1348/3A
remote control, VAG1348/3-2 adapter cable and assisting cable.
- Bridge terminals 1 and 65 at test box using wires from VAG1594A
adapter test kit.
- Bridge terminals 1 and 65 at test box using wires from VAG1594A
adapter test kit.
- Switch ignition on.

Fuel Pump (FP) must run.
- Activate VAG1348/3A remote control for 30 seconds.
- Perform measurement on all fuel injectors.

- After all four fuel injectors have been activated,
place measuring glasses on an even surface.


Specified value for each fuel injector: 135
10 ml

- If measured value of one or more fuel injectors
is outside of specified range, switch Fuel Pump
(FP) off (switch ignition off) and replace faulty
fuel injector Page 24
-46
.

- If measured values of all fuel injectors are
outside specified range, check fuel pressure
Page 24
-33
.

Note:
Also check spray pattern when checking injection
quantity. Spray pattern must be the same for all
injectors

- Install fuel injectors together with fuel distributor

Component location Overview of component
locations Page 24

Voltage is supplied to the Fuel Pump (FP) and
several components of the injection system via
the Fuel Pump (FP) relay -J17-.
Engine must be turning for Fuel Pump (FP) relay
-J17- to close. This means that the relay does
not receive Ground (GND) (via ECM) until the
ECM recognizes RPM signals.

Test requirement:

Battery voltage at least 12.7 V

Function test of Fuel Pump (FP) relay

- Remove driver-side storage compartment.
