Description
Perfect Injector Height Every Time!
“The gauge made it easy to dial in the exact injector height after valve adjustments, and the two-step design kept measurements consistent across all cylinders without rechecking.” - Hudsonbruce5
Why Get Our Injector Height Adjustment Gauge Tool for CAT?
✅Accurate Injector Height Measurement: Inconsistent injector height after valve adjustments is a common cause of uneven combustion and reduced engine efficiency. This gauge is precision-machined to set the correct injector height of 78.0 ± 0.2 mm (3.07 ± 0.01 in), measured from the top of the unit injector to the machined ledge of the injector body. Its two-step design allows controlled, repeatable adjustment during service procedures for consistent results across all cylinders.
✅Heavy-Duty Diesel Compatibility: Engineered for use on 3406E, C-15, and C-16 diesel engine platforms, this injector height adjustment gauge is intended for professional service applications. It supports injector height setup following valve clearance adjustments and accommodates the required lock-nut torque specification of 100 ± 10 N·m (74 ± 7 lb-ft) for secure and accurate installation.
✅Durable Construction: Built from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, this tool offers excellent strength and anti-wear performance in demanding workshop environments. The rigid structure maintains dimensional accuracy over time, supporting reliable measurements during repeated engine maintenance and rebuild tasks.
📓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: How is injector height measured with this tool?
A: The gauge measures the distance from the top of the unit injector to the machined ledge of the injector body, ensuring the injector is set to 78.0 ± 0.2 mm (3.07 ± 0.01 in). The two-step design allows precise, repeatable adjustment.
Q: What engines is this tool compatible with?
A: It is compatible with 3406E, C-15, and C-16 diesel engines and other similar heavy-duty engines requiring precise injector height adjustment after valve clearance work.
Q: How does the two-step design benefit injector adjustment?
A: The two-step design allows controlled initial positioning and final verification of injector height, minimizing errors and providing consistent measurements across all cylinders.
