The fuel system on a Td5 is one of the few systems not able to be diagnosed electronically (Nanocom or similar) leaving you guessing as to which part(s) need replacing and sometimes ending up replacing a lot parts “just in case”. This kit enables you to ensure your fuel system is working as it should.
This Td5 fuel pressure test kit is simple to use just remove your fuel temperature sensor, install the probe and attach the gauge hose using the quick release couplings. The Dowty washer suppled on the probe should be good for about 15-20 tests, but spares are included in the kit.
A normal reading should be approx. 4 bar or slightly above. To test the actual output of the pump clamp the return hose, a reading of 7 bar or more could be seen on a good fuel pump.
The hose meets DIN EN 853 1SN and has been designed to be long enough to allow the vehicle to be carefully driven with the gauge attached in order to assist with fault finding. All fittings are sealed with high quality thixotropic thread sealant. A protective HDPE protective cap with integrated seal is included to seal the probe when not in use (probe can be attached to hose).
Supplied with spare Dowty washers for the connection to the fuel pressure regulator and will give many years of service. The adaptor probe is a non-return type so will not spew diesel if the hose is detached.
Images are for illustration only, actual parts used may vary depending on availability. There may be some diesel residue in the hose/connections as we do test each kit.
