1. I took all the vacuum stuff away so I could access the fuel pump hard lines.This included the MAIN vacuum HOSE to avoid braking those plastic "T" things.
2. I removed the "cigar" return fuel line.
3. I loosen the injection lines (17mm) at the injectors and then the ones on the pump.
Here is a trick, to release the ones in the pump, I had to use a 15mm to hold the delivery valves. I didn't realize this in the beginning and I was turning the whole thing including the fuel line which got twisted but came back to normal.
I used painters tape to cover the valves and injectors in order to avoid contamination.
4. Removed the small nuts holding the cables for the glow plugs, 8mm.
5. 12mm ratchet box to get the old glow plugs out. They wouldn't want to come out, carbon build up was trapping them. Took some effort.
6. Used the reamer and the lil brush, and it worked perfectly.
7. reinstall everything back, left the injector fuel line a little loose to torque the engine and get rid of the air. When I saw fuel coming out of them, I tighten them up.
8. diesel purge and new filters
Did I do this right?
Its working awesome but I see some fuel around the pump.
