Mercedes 5 Cyl 617 Diesel Engine Fuel Injector DIY Rebuild Kit

If you have been reluctant to overhaul your worn and inefficient Bosch fuel injector nozzles because the job is too difficult or too costly then think again! For approximately the same cost as rebuilt Bosch fuel injectors you can purchase this kit to rebuild them yourself in your garage and get better performance to boot! Works on all 617 engines 300D, 300CD, 300TD and 300SD from 1975 to 1985.

Our German made Monark injector nozzles are manufactured with new technology and they outperform the original Bosch design. They just downright atomize the fuel better for more complete combustion. When these high performance nozzles are installed and balanced-tuned properly you will not believe the difference it makes in how your diesel engine runs. Here is what one customer recently wrote in to report:

"Hi Kent, I had the Monark nozzles sitting in my garage for more than a year and I was balancing them lately within the tolerance of plus 2 or 3 bars  and installed them in my 300SDL replacing my old Bosch nozzles with only 30K miles on (old nozzles were  balanced at 140bar by a shop when installed but turned out having 130 - 135 bar when I  tested them after  removal). Wow, what a difference Monark makes! I have heard a lot of good things about the Monark nozzles back from Germany but now I realize the big difference at idle and all operating conditions. The engine is so much quieter and smoother. Also the torque and willingness to go at higher rpms is improved. I think the engine is running better than ever it would easily go beyond 100 mph on the highway if it was allowed. No smoke.Great that you picked the Monark products and offer them to all Diesel enthusiasts! Many thanks for all your support. Have a great day. Martin W."

Still not sure you can do this yourself? Here is what one of our customers recently wrote about this rebuild kit:

Dear Kaia and Kent-

Kent has done it again! Another great DIY Kit...What a great package - The DIY Fuel Injector Rebuild Kit. The booklet covers everything in detail with good photos and diagrams. Being able to bench test and bench balance the injectors was a delight with Kent's test pump. The job went very smoothly and I think anyone with the right tools and this complete kit can do this job over the weekend.

By the way the results are fantastic. My old bosh injector tips were coked over- I don't know how the car even ran with those! The new Monarch tips are working very very smoothly with no banging (I am running 100% WVO- one tank system). The cost was insignificant compared with the results...

Thanks again for supporting us "car-crazy"  DIY'ers with another great rebuild-it kit.

WARNING:

The health and longevity of your new Monark injector nozzles with be directly affected by the cleanliness of your diesel fuel and its lubricity. Any gunk or crude in your filters or injection pump could travel to the new nozzles and cause scoring leading to premature failure (our warranty does not cover nozzle tip scoring). The following procedures are a MUST with installing new nozzles:

1. Diesel Purge

Run at least one can (two if you have never done it) of diesel purge through your fuel injection system before removing your old injectors.

2. Change Filters

Change both your pre and main fuel filter. Click Here to view all filters.

3. Use Fuel Additive

The new ultra low-sulfur  (ULSD) diesel fuel available at the pumps is not kind to mechanical fuel injectors. The sulfur was the key ingredient used to keep your fuel pump and fuel injectors lubricated. To protect your new nozzles we recommend you add a high grade fuel additive to your fuel (such as Lubro-Moly Diesel Hi-Test)
