How to replace the injector seal on a Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Fuel injectors

In this video we can see how to replace the copper gasket located at the base of the injector of a Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi. If the gasket is damaged, we will hear a characteristic noise coming from the engine, like a continuous puffing. We must therefore replace this gasket by removing the injector. What's the problem? By removing the injector, the gasket remains on the seat and does not come off with the injector. It is therefore necessary to use an extractor, which we can buy at a good price for example on Temu with code 601099698325048 at the price of 21.95 euros, free delivery. With this tool we will remove the damaged gasket and place the new one in its place, positioning it exactly in its place.
