(1) Cleanness of DI engine fuel system
Cleanness of DI engine fuel system and service procedures ▶
The fuel system for DI engine consists of transfer (low pressure) line and high pressure line.
Its highest pressure reaches over 1,800 bar.

preciseness.
The pressure regulation and injector operation are done by electric source from engine ECU.
Accordingly, if the internal valve is stuck due to foreign materials, injector remains open.
Even in this case, the HP pump still operates to supply high pressurized fuel. This increases the
pressure to combustion chamber (over 250 bar) and may cause fatal damage to engine.
You can compare the thickness of injector nozzle hole and hair as shown in below figure (left side). The
below figure shows the clearance between internal operating elements.
The core elements of fuel system has very high preciseness that is easily affected by dust or very small
foreign material. Therefore, make sure to keep the preliminary works and job procedures in next pages.
If not, lots of system problems and claims may arise.

2. CAUTIONS
1) Standard pattern of soot accumulation
Abnormal Soot Accumulation ▶
Normal Soot Combustion ▶
Cautions to protect the catalyst filter ▶
Use the designated fuel only.
Observe the recommended service intervals of engine oil.
Check the engine oil level frequently and add if necessary.
Do not idle the vehicle unnecessarily.
Do not turn off the engine while the vehicle is running.
Do not shift the gear selector lever to neutral when going downhill.
Do not use improper engine oil or fuel additives.
Do not drive for a long time when the warning lamp is illuminated.
Make sure no flammable material, such as dry grass or tissue paper, contacts with the catalyst filter
while the vehicle is parked.
For the vehicles used in urban traffic, driving on the expressways for more than 1 hour at least once
per week is needed so that the PM inside CDPF isn't collected to one side only. -

E. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil) ▶
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
Issue with normal engine oil ▶
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block
the filter. -
Benefit for specified engine oil ▶
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
Problems when using unspecified engine oil ▶
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc. *

1. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1) Cleanliness and Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the ten-thousanths of an inch.
When any internal engine parts are serviced, care and cleanliness are important.
A liberal coating of enigne oil should be applied to friction areas during assembly, to protect and lubricate
the surfaces on initial operation. Proper cleaning and protection of machined surfaces and friction areas
is part of the repair procedure.
This is considered standard shop practice even if not specifically stated.
Whenever valve train components are removed for service, they should be kept in order. They should be
installed in the same locations, and with the same mating surfaces, as when they were removed.
Battery cables should be disconnected before any major work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect cables may result in damage to wire harness or other electrical parts.
Page 253 of 751
01-4
2) On-engine Service
Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit, or when a
tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals.
Disconnecting this cable will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition
must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted. -
Any time the air cleaner is removed, the intake opening should be covered. This will protect
against accidental entrance of foreign material, which could follow the intake passage into the
cylinder and cause extensive damage when the engine is started. -

2) Compression Pressure Test
Standard Service Data ▶
A9912 0012B (001 589 76 21 00) Compression Pressure Tester -
Measuring Procedure ▶
Warm the engine up to normal operating temperature.
Remove the spark plugs using the spark plug wrench.
Place the diagram sheet to compression pressure tester A9912 0012B (001 589 76 21 00).
Connect the adaptor to compression pressure tester A9912 0012B (001 589 76 21 00) and
install it into the spark plug hole.
Crank the engine approx. eight revolutions by using the start motor.
Compare the measurements of compression pressure tester A9912 0012B (001 589 76 21 00)
with the specifications.
Measure the compression pressure of the other cylinders in the same way.
If measured value is not within the specifications, perform the cylinder pressure leakage test. -

-
Discharge the combustion residues in the cylinders before testing the compression pressure.
Apply the parking brake before cranking the engine. -
