Inside a BB...

The BB below was the only one out of 8 that had shims (2) 028+017
Ain't nothing scary inside...heck if I could have got a new spring, tip, shims I would have rebuilt my original ones vs dealing with Pensacola.

Not much too them really. The shims aren't real visible in your photo. We made a decent one out of 2 bad ones at the 2006 (?) IDI Weekend, when EZ had a knock we were trying to fix. I doubt it was in spec though.

2 shims (look like o-rings) shown in the lower picture...hey Mel, when putting it back together what's the torque # for that bottom cap? Super fine threads!

That I can't say. Tighter than what it takes to take them out of a cylinder! LOL

The nozzle cap nut torque is 33 lbs. I know that sounds way too low but thats what my book says. :dunno

Hammer, by the time you buy tips you are at the cost of a new injector. Those are magic you know, it says so on the spring wire.

RLDSL · Feb 10, 2009

None of the injection shops around here even rebuild the stanadyne type injectors anymore. it cost more to rebuild the things than it does for new ones. They consider those cheapie injectors disposable. They only rebuild the high end injectors like the Bosch where it comes out financially ahead to do so

Footnote, CAV is the same as Delphi which is is the injector that we all seem to be clammering for... Delphi , which is the modern incarnation of Lucas, Prince of Darkness

That is why the injector tip is in such a black hole. LOL
