    Rocker cover seal change and fuel common rail line removal

    Hi All, I’m changing my rocker cover seal on my 2007 CRD Patrol, also changing glow plug seals, my question is when I disconnect the fuel line from the injectors do I have to release pressure ? Also when placing back on do I have to bleed the line by pumping the fuel up and out ?? Or what would you recommend ? Anything else that I may have missed ? Easy job ? I’m pretty handy with engines just not CRD .

    Cheers

    Dave

    Unfortunately the injector seal is moulded into the rocker cover and can't be replaced. It is a whole new rocker cover. I have been down that path, but at 5-600 dollars, I thought was a bit rich. I had an injector seal leak around the rocker cover and used some good quality black sealant to fix and has not leaked since. Don't ask me how to do it. I don't work on my own car any more due to lack of wanting to. I just pay people these days.
    In the words of a Dhuck "QUACK".
