Damage to the ignition coil.
The silicone hose of the ignition coil must not be contaminated by fuel as this can lead to failure of the ignition coil.
- When working on the fuel system, cover the ignition coils with suitable materials and remove where required.
- Do not oil or grease the silicone tube of the spark plug socket. Do not use any protection or maintenance products (e.g. silicone spray rubber care products, rust remover, etc.).
NOTE:
The description is for one component only. The procedure is identical for all further components.
- Before installing the ignition coils: Fuse the spark plug shafts (2) out with an air gun (1).
The spark plug shafts must be free from oil, fuel residue, and coolant residue.
- Position the ignition coil and gently push it to the stop, if necessary by twisting it back and forth slightly.
- Push connector (1) onto the ignition coil with the connector fastener (2) open.
- Carefully close the connector fastener (2).
On closing locking lever, the connector (1) must lie on counter piece almost gap-free. In the process, the crank webs of the locking lever are positioned inside the counter piece.
- Ensure that no cables are crushed or damaged.
The connector fastener must snap into place without great effort.
- Repair damaged cables.
- Check the anti-twist lock (1).
The rubber seal of the ignition coil must completely enclose the opening for the spark plug on the cylinder head cover.
